"Dig, fight, explore, build! Nothing is impossible in this action-packed adventure game. The world is your canvas and the ground itself is your paint.
Grab your tools and go! You can do many things in Terraria: make weapons and fight off a variety of enemies in numerous biomes, dig deep underground to find accessories, money, and other useful things, gather wood, stone, ores, and other resources to create everything you need to make the world your own and defend it. Build a house, a fort, even a castle, and people will move in to live there and perhaps even sell you different wares to assist you on your journey. But beware, there are even more challenges awaiting you… Are you up to the task?"
I’ve been keeping my eye on this title. 255 players per server, with a lot more emphasis on combat than construction. It could be fantastic. At the very lest, the Let’s Play put out by the dev team has made it look terrific. A qt3 Terraria server would be an awesome thing, especially if we divide ourselves up into 2-3 ‘teams’. You have your side, we have ours. Suffer. :)
I linked to that. It’s not just some dude. It’s the project lead and the production assistant. :) I’d say the true measure of the game is that by the time I got to video 10, I wanted to stop watching these things and start playing. The LPs go up to 25, mind.
