Terraria State of the Game - August 2024

29 aug

Greetings Terrarians!

Back to school already? That may have set the record for the fastest-feeling Summer of all time. We hope everyone at least got a chance to grab some fun times with friends and family over the past few months - before we all plunge headlong into what Fall has in store. On the Terraria front, we are full speed ahead in the second half of the year, with development of 1.4.5 still going quite well (we are nearing the 50th beta of this dev cycle!). Each month sees the addition of even more cool stuff - we are particularly excited for what was added this month, though we are only going to spoil one of the more "shocking" tidbits for now. We know everyone wants that juicy release date still, but we are patiently working through our list of "to do's", and we do not want to ever cut any corners... so it will still be a bit longer, I'm afraid.

With that out of the way... let's take a look at a particularly intriguing State of the Game!

PC - RE-LOGIC

TERRARIA - WEATHERING THE STORM

While Terraria has had various weather effects for quite some time, they have mostly been cosmetic. Outside of wind - which can impact movement and projectiles - and possibly the visibility-limiting blizzard/sandstorms, weather has never really played a huge role in the Terraria adventure. Terraria 1.4.5 aims to change that up a bit by not only adding some new natural/weather phenomenons, but also making some weather elements more... interactive.

Remember, if you feel your hair standing on end, it may be time to seek shelter indoors! How shocking!What other goodies have the team added this month? Well, be sure to check out the Console/Mobile section for at least one more spoiler... but as always, some things will remain a secret. Until next time folks!

WHAT ELSE IS GOING ON?

Whittling down the list of remaining items, discussing what - if anything - should be added to said list.

TMODLOADER NEWS - TML TEAM

Hello everyone!

The tModLoader team and our amazing community of contributors continues to improve tModLoader. On September 1st the monthly update release of tModLoader will go live. This month's release contains many improvements to the user experience, some gameplay bug fixes, as well as new features with examples and documentation for mod makers.

One new feature we want to showcase in particular is in-game workshop tag filtering. This has been a highly requested feature and we hope this new filter will help users find the mods they want more easily in-game. We expect this feature to especially help users find mods that support their native language.

Modders and users should also keep an eye out for our monthly Steam announcement on the 1st where a complete listing of bug fixes and API changes for this month's release will be listed. The in-game news button on the main menu will direct you directly to the announcement once it is live.

As always, if you are having issues of any sort, definitely don't hesitate to check out our FAQ on github[github.com] or reach out to us at our Discord[discord.com].

TMODLOADER STEAM WORKSHOP

The TML Steam Workshop has over 6000 mods for you to enjoy! Coupled with the in-game mod browser, the TML Steam Workshop is a great way to explore what modded Terraria has to offer - check it out today by clicking the banner above!

WHAT'S NEXT FOR TML?

More features, continuing to evolve and grow what TML can do... and getting ready for 1.4.5.

As always, you can keep track the current progress and much more in real time at tModLoader/tModLoader[github.com] (But note that the completion percentage doesn't mean anything, because issues and PRs don't have weights.)

Developers who are willing to contribute may do so by doing PRs to the tModLoader/tModLoader[github.com] branch. (See tModLoader/tModLoader[github.com])

PlayStation, XBOX, Nintendo Switch, Mobile - DR STUDIOS

This month, the DR team spent a good amount of time on some polish and QOL projects specific to Console and Mobile that we have had on the list for a good while. While we are keeping pace well with the development pipeline for Terraria 1.4.5 on PC, we were pleased that we had some available time to go ahead and tackle these rather than having to wait for a future update. More on that at a later time. That said, let's check out a quick Terraria spoiler, shall we?

IF YOU LOVE YOUR CRITTERS SET THEM FREE!

Think outside the cage - free your captured critters from confinement while keeping them close by!

Terraria 1.4.5 will allow players to place captured critters out in the open via "leashing" them to a specific location. We hope this will help make your favorite Terraria world feel more lively than ever!

Until next time, Console & Mobile friends - thanks for all of your love and support!

TERRARIA MERCHANDISE UPDATES

TERRARIA - THE BOARD GAME UPDATE

Hello Terrarians! Chris here, lead developer at Paper Fort Games. This month, we’ve got development news, art to share, and an update on our adopted hive.

If you missed the campaign but would like to get your hands on the game, don’t worry! Late pledges are now available by clicking the link below...

TERRARIA: THE BOARD GAME CAMPAIGN LATE PLEDGES[terraria-board-game.backerkit.com]

Game Development
Over the past month, we’ve been fine-tuning some of the game’s mechanisms and rules based on feedback received from backers and playtesters. Here are some of the features we’ve been focusing on:

Movement, digging and line-of-sight rules (these have been simplified and made more consistent)
Weapon range adjustments to better reflect the digital game
Hook-based movement; equip a hook to get around more easily!
Difficulty scaling for 1/2 player vs 3/4 player games, including changes to objectives, bosses and available inventory slots based on player count.
Small changes to resource/ equipment sharing rules to disincentivise inventory offloading pre-death
Addition of pylons allowing long-distance mid to end-game travel.

We’ve also been working on physical aspects of the game, making some quality-of-life improvements to the player boards and enemy wound tracking.

---

Biome Tiles: Now with Fan-Chosen Critters!
A few months ago, and during the campaign, we asked for fans’ favourite critters, and we’ve been adding as many of them as we can to the game’s biome tiles (alongside ambient objects!). Below are just a few examples (there are many, many more!); which critters can you spot?

Adding these new features has really brought the tiles to life and made each feel even more unique. Though these are just aesthetic additions, we hope you’ll have fun discovering your favourite critters amongst the tiles!

---

Modular Miniatures
We’ve been working closely with our manufacturing partners on the boss miniatures to make sure that they’re easy to put together and take apart; below are examples of the ‘key’ system we’re working on. We’ve requested a couple of changes (for example, now that King Slime is transparent, we need to change the direction of the keys so that the sticky-out bit of the crown isn’t visible inside the miniature) but even so, we are hoping to receive physical samples for all of the miniatures in the next couple of weeks so we can test them out. We’ll share a video of the miniatures in action when they arrive!

---

Playmat Sketches
One of the add-ons available with Terraria: The Board Game is the giant world playmat. One side features the game’s UI and provides a surface on which to build your world. The other will feature a full-art Terrarian vs. Wall of Flesh scene; below are George’s black + white work-in progress sketches of the showdown art. We can’t wait to share the full-colour art piece; the mat will be perfect as a desk mat or for playing other card games.

---

The Underground Hive is Live!
The beehive that we adopted as part of the campaign’s social goals has now been chosen; the team down at Much Birch went above and beyond, taking the time to choose a hive worthy of the ‘Underground Jungle’ name! The sign reads 'The 'Underground Jungle' Hive; adopted by Paper Fort Games on behalf of the Terraria community'.

UNDERGROUND JUNGLE HIVE

We're looking forward to sharing even more next month. Remember; if you missed the campaign but would still like to get your hands on the game, late pledges are now available via the link below:

TERRARIA DISCORD & PENGUIN GAMES PARKOUR COLLABORATION

For our next Terraria Discord event, we have partnered with Penguin Games to create a parkour speedrun event! This speedrun event will have two separate brackets to ensure everyone has a chance at getting a place no matter their skill level.

The beginners bracket will play the course: Empyrean. The experienced bracket will play the course: Sans.

Because the experienced bracket will be running on a more advanced course, the prizes for placing high on the leaderboard will be more grand. While you can only submit active times for ONE BRACKET, you are free to switch for any reason. When switching brackets, the event team will remove any times you had from the leaderboard from the bracket you're switching from. Because of this though, we will not be doing a public leaderboard until the event is over.

Join the official Terraria Discord[discord.com] and visit our #server-announcement channel for all parkour event details.

Until next time, Terrarians - we hope you have an amazing month, and we look forward to bringing you the latest and greatest next time!

Terraria State of the Game - July 2024

25 jul

Greetings Terrarians!

What a ridiculously hot month July has been for pretty much everyone, and we are not just talking about the temperatures outside. Can you believe that it has been a year since the Great War of Axes & Trees? Of course, this year, it's been the the Terraria CEO Standoff - which way did you fall on how Terraria should be pronounced? What did you make of Temporary-CEO Chippy's ideas for the game? Anything there you'd like to see become a reality?

All that said, let's get into the latest and greatest of all things Terraria!

PC - RE-LOGIC

TERRARIA - WHIPPING UP SOME 1.4.5 SPOILERS

Observant Terrarians have likely noted several new whips that are coming your way in Terraria 1.4.5 - welcome additions for all of those summoner players out there! We haven't really taken a close look at a lot of these, but we thought we might do so with a never-before-seen whip. One imbued with the very power of the Queen of the Terrarian Jungle...

Unleash the volatile energies that permeate the Jungle on unwary foes - what a Vulgar Display of Flower indeed!

The team, of course, remains hard at work on both adding new things as well as tweaking and fixing things that we have already added. We know everyone wants a release date/window, but we are not ready to provide that just yet. Just be patient for us a bit longer... it will be worth it in the end.

PlayStation, XBOX, Nintendo Switch, Mobile - DR STUDIOS

The team at DR Studios has been able to spend a bit of time on the side diving into Terraria crossplay in an attempt to make some progress on that in parallel to the ongoing work on Terraria 1.4.5. The sooner we can get to the unanswered questions there, the better, right? Again, no promises, but we are happy with the progress thus far. That said, shall we dive into some 1.4.5 spoiler action?

CHANGE YOUR VOICE, FOOL YOUR FRIENDS, FUN AT PARTIES!

Why be stuck with the same old human voice effects when you can embrace your inner zombie... or turkey?

Terraria 1.4.5 introduces all new accessories that will allow players to change the way they sound.

TERRARIA: THE BOARD GAME KICKSTARTER RECAP

Over 15,000 Terrarians supported the campaign, raising over 2 million dollars; what an incredible total! It’s not all about the final number, of course; we had a fantastic time getting there too. Here are some of our campaign highlights:

- We unlocked over 50 stretch goals to maximise the content and quality of the game, including a transparent King Slime boss miniature, promo packs, deluxe dice, developer vanity sets and a foiled, uniquely numbered, limited edition Pwnhammer card for every backer!

- We were able to support conservation charities via our social goals; we've adopted an orca, penguins, a beehive and a vulture on behalf of the Terraria community, as well as planting 100 trees!

- We held an AMA over on the official Terraria Discord and answered loads of great questions from fans; about the game, about working with the Re-Logic team and even about our favourite snacks… You can read all of the questions and our answers here: PAPER FORT GAMES AMA RECAP.

Thanks again to the amazing Discord mod team for hosting the AMA and for the community for making us feel so welcome!

- We hosted an in-game build contest, featuring some incredible entries!

Thank you again to every single one of you who supported the campaign in any way; we really, really appreciate it and we’re very excited to show you more over the coming months!

TERRARIA GRAPHIC NOVEL SERIES - SHIPPING COSTS UPDATE & MORE

Our friends at 50 Amp Productions have some news and reminders that they would like to share - check it out!

We heard a great deal of concern about the price of international shipping... and we agreed! International shipping rates are ridiculous. It took us more time than we hoped because the feat was greater than we had imagined. However, we are happy to share that our new shipping services have been integrated into our web store, and you should find that your shipping rates were slashed to a fraction of what they once were.
Come by and check it out! And if you live in a country that has not yet seen the price change, email us at help@50ampproductions.com (mailto:help@50ampproductions.com) and tell us what country and we will look into it for you.
For US fans, if you go to the site, you will see there are shipping savings for you as well. Spend $40 and we will pay your shipping for you. As a thank you for your continued support!

The graphic novel collection is available for preorders on Barnes and Noble, Target.com, Amazon, Booksamillion…you name it! The release date is October 15 and you will be ordering direct from the retailer. We priced it at $10.99, essentially giving you over 20 pages for free. The book collects volume 1, issues 1-4 of the continuing comic book series and will get you ready to read volume 2! We are really proud of the book and hope you check it out.

Lastly, we wanted to remind you that as you read this, all materials from issues 1-6 are in stock and shipping within days of order, barring mail holidays, of course! There is no preorder this time, so you can check it out, order it, and have it in your hands all within a tiny window of time.

Terraria State of the Game - June 2024

27 jun

Greetings Terrarians!

June has been an exciting month, to be sure! Alongside the steady forward march of Terraria development, we saw the Terraria Board Game crowdfunding campaign go completely nuts and we also were able to finally reveal the special vanity set designed by a huge Terraria fan, Frank, via Make-A-Wish®. Suffice to say, it was an eventful month - and July looks to be just as hot. Speaking of heat, it seems to be ridiculously hot everywhere this summer - so no better time to keep cool, stay inside, and start that next Terraria playthrough!

Now, let's dive into some refreshing Terraria news...

PC - RE-LOGIC

TERRARIA - OVER 58 MILLION STRONG... AND GROWING!

It has been quite some time since we gave an update on just how massive the Terraria fanbase has grown. This was somewhat by design, as we had our sights set on doing so once we passed a somewhat-obscure game about a plumber and his brother trying to save a princess from this dragon-turtle thing...

Thanks to the support of Terrarians everywhere, we are very proud to share that Terraria has surpassed 58 million units sold - 58.7m to be more exact, with nearly 32m from PC alone!

Once again, we are beyond humbled and thankful for your continued support - it is the force that drives us every day to make even more awesome Terraria experiences. I wonder what might happen when we get to sixty million...

MAKING A WISH COME TRUE IN TERRARIA

In case you missed it, the Re-Logic team recently had the distinct pleasure to work alongside a massive Terraria fan, Frank, as we crafted his very own Terraria vanity set! Frank is a 17-year-old teenager from Rockaway, New Jersey who is battling a critical illness. Frank declared to Make-A-Wish® New Jersey that his one true wish was to have his own Vanity Set in Terraria - and we were beyond thrilled to make that a reality!

You can check out Frank's vanity set - the Heroicis Set, complete with "Film Noir" shader - when Terraria 1.4.5 releases!

TERRARIA TESTING PLAYTHROUGHS - WHAT'S IT LIKE?

Ever wondered what those Re-Logic beta testing playthroughs are like? What sorts of bugs are found? What shenanigans take place? Well, Chippy recently put together a nice little video about his experiences as a beta tester on Terraria 1.4.5 around a year ago - a documentary for science, if you will.

Could YOU pass the Terraria Quiz?

PlayStation, XBOX, Nintendo Switch, Mobile - DR STUDIOS

The team at DR Studios remains hard at work on both Terraria 1.4.5 content as well as console and mobile specific tweaks and fixes. More details to come on all of that down the line, but suffice to say that we think that the Terraria experience will be the best that it has ever been on all platforms once 1.4.5 comes out! That said, let's dive into some spoilers shall we?

MORE CONTROL MAPPING TWEAKS

As we mentioned last month, we are undergoing a full review of all gamepad/control maps and making QOL changes that we think everyone will enjoy. Here's a taste of some changes from this past month's work on this project:

A buff icon was added in the top left corner, which only displays if the player has unused buff items.

The state display in the top right corner has been expanded on to include more things and their mappings. Health / mana potions also display here in appropriate circumstances, though whether they'll be moved up with buffs is still being discussed.

THESE AREN'T YOUR PARENTS' BOMBS ANYMORE!

Bombs - not just for blasting random holes in the ground anymore!

TERRARIA MERCHANDISE UPDATES

TERRARIA - THE BOARD GAME UPDATE

June saw the completion of the Terraria Board Game Kickstarter - and wow, we are blown away!!!

Over 15,000 Terrarians - both old and new - pledged over two million dollars to make Terraria: The Board Game as amazing as it can possibly be. Every single stretch goal was met, the comments were amazing to read and respond to, and we cannot wait to get everything put together and in your hands!

The current expected delivery timing for Terraria: The Board Game is June 2025, but the team at Paper Fort Games will update us all as things move along. In the meantime, the Re-Logic team will continue to partner closely with PFG in order to ensure this latest Terraria experience is authentic and of the highest quality.

If you missed out on the Kickstarter, don't fret - we expect a version to hit retailers down the road as well. The gameplay will be the same, though perhaps with a bit fewer fancy doodads.

TERRARIA: THE BOARD GAME KICKSTARTER CAMPAIGN

CHECK OUT THE LATEST MONTHLY T-SHIRT ON TERRARIA.SHOP!

Hot on the heels of the recent CEO battle between Redigit and Chippy, this month's Terraria T-shirt drop on Terraria.shop dives deep into the age old question that has bothered humanity since the dawn of time: how exactly does one pronounce "Terraria"? There seems to be some disagreement - and it often seems to fall along country lines...

Of course, with it being close to Independence Day, we couldn't help but poke a little fun at this long-standing Terrarian debate:

TERRARIA GRAPHIC NOVEL SERIES - ISSUE 6 NOW AVAILABLE, BOOK ONE PREORDERS UNDERWAY

Hello everyone!

We are proud to share that as of this Wednesday (June 26), the 50 Amp Productions web store is back open for business! We have fully integrated our new shipping and logistics system, which should result in cheaper shipping costs as well as more timely and reliable delivery to customers. As always, if you are having any issues, let us know via email at help@50ampproductions.com.

But wait, there's much more!

Issue 6 of the Terraria Graphic Novel is available right now - along with some new collectibles that we know you will enjoy. Multiple packages are available on http://www.50ampproductions.com/, same as with previous issues. No preorders this time, however: we have issue 6 materials in stock TODAY and all orders will ship within 5-7 days of you placing your order!

---

We are also proud to share the release date of Book One of the Terraria Graphic Novel - October 15, 2024!

Book One will contain the story from Issues 1-4. Each Book release is planned to include some extra goodies that will only be available within each Book. For now, we will reveal one of our favorites - we are planning to add "Terraria Short Stories" - special side stories that take place outside of Vale's main journey. What are those NPCs doing when you are out of town? What other crazy adventures and happenings occur in Terraria? We hope these Terraria Short Stories will be a fun treat for everyone as we seek to explore parts of Terraria that are a bit off of the beaten path!

Preorders are open right now on Amazon and Barnes & Noble - check out the links below to ensure that you get your copy on release day!

Making a Wish Come True in Terraria

12 jun

Greetings Terrarians!

As you all know, we cannot say enough about how much we appreciate the members of our community. In addition, we have always tried our best to be a charity-minded company. With that as background, we are beyond thrilled to share that we are partnering with the Make-A-Wish® Foundation to make a young Terrarian's wish come true!

Make-A-Wish® New Jersey contacted us a few months ago to share that they had a huge Terraria fan whose biggest wish we could help make a reality. Of course, we jumped at the chance to make this happen and we were quickly introduced to Frank. Frank is a 17-year-old teenager from Rockaway, New Jersey who is battling a critical illness. Frank declared to Make-A-Wish® New Jersey that his one true wish was to have his own Vanity Set in Terraria.

Since then, we have been working closely with Frank to bring this Vanity Set to life - from initial concepts to various iterations to adding flavor text and more, it has been a real honor and pleasure to work hand-in-hand with Frank to make his dream a reality. He is certainly a Terrarian, through and through!

With all that said, we are pleased to be able to reveal Frank's Vanity set, which will be coming everyone's way with the Terraria 1.4.5 update...

HEROICIS ARMOR SET

Frank's initial concept art - by Dnsu (IG : dnsu_1 - FB: Dnsu)

We also included a brand new shader, inspired by the "film noir" style of Frank's design. We haven't fully sorted out how this will be toggled just yet, but we will in time.

As always, there may be further tweaks and such to this set and the shader before it goes live in Terraria 1.4.5, but we didn't want to wait any longer to share it with all of you!

We also sent Frank a little Terraria swag...

Huge thanks go out to Frank, Make-A-Wish® New Jersey, the entire Terraria dev team, and our very own Jaxrud🌳 who took on the monumental task of fulfilling this wish. We cannot wait to see Frank's reaction when he gets a chance to dive into Terraria with his very own Vanity Set later this year!

ABOUT MAKE-A-WISH® NEW JERSEY

Make-A-Wish® New Jersey creates life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. In the fight against a critical illness, a wish serves as a catalyst for renewed strength and encouragement for every child and family on their journey. A wish helps kids look past their limitations, families overcome anxiety and entire communities experience joy. Most importantly, wishes can improve a child’s quality of life. We believe a single wish transforms lives.

With their national headquarters based in Phoenix, Arizona, Make-A-Wish® is one of the world’s leading children’s charities, with 57 chapters serving children in every community in the United States and its territories, and nearly 40 international affiliates. Make-A-Wish® New Jersey was founded in 1983. Serving children in every municipality in the Garden State, Make-A-Wish® New Jersey has granted nearly 12,000 wishes since its inception.

Terraria State of the Game - May 2024

30 maj

Greetings Terrarians!

Summer is finally here - well for some of us at least. We are greatly enjoying the warmer temperatures and the chance to get outside a lot more. Of course, development work remains at a steady pace as we draw ever-closer to Terraria 1.4.5. In the meantime, we hope that you enjoyed the 13th Anniversary celebration (and re-release of 1.1) earlier this month... and that you are looking forward to the upcoming board game as much as we are! 2024 is nearly half-done, and we are quite excited about what the rest of the year has in store for Terrarians everywhere.

With that out of the way, let's dip our toes into this month's pool of Terraria news!

PC - RE-LOGIC

TERRARIA 1.4.5 - THE RE-LOGIC FAMILY GROWS!

The Re-Logic team is beyond ecstatic to reveal that our little dev team family has grown by two with the official addition of jopojelly and Kazzymodus! Just who are these new Re-Logic team members and what will/have they be working on? Let's find out!

KAZZYMODUS

Kazzymodus has been a beta-tester for Terraria for more than five years, having experienced the development of 1.4 - still known as 1.3.6 at the time - onward first-hand from start to soon-to-be finish. During that time they've tested a great deal of content, weeding out a lot of issues before it ends up in your collective hands, as well as giving feedback and suggestions to make sure any new (and old!) content is the best it can be.

Now in charge of Quality Assurance, they're doing their best to make your 1.4.5 experience as smooth and bug-free as possible!

---

JOPOJELLY

Jopojelly became involved in tModLoader during its infancy and quickly became integral in making mods and adding new features to tModLoader. He has always strived to make the experiences of both using mods and making mods better. Rather than make new content himself, jopojelly focused on guiding millions of tModLoader players in experiencing modded content through his quality of life mods Recipe Browser, Boss Checklist, and Census - to name a few. These mods help make players aware of all the awesome bosses, items, and town NPCs added by other mods they have installed so that they can experience them all.

Jopojelly will continue to work on collaborating with the tModLoader community on adding new features and bug fixes to tModLoader.

UNLEASH YOUR INNER VERMIN VIA THE RAT TRANSFORMATION

The latest in the handful of transformations coming to Terraria 1.4.5, the Rat Transformation will let you climb walls and squeak into small spaces!

Modders and users should also keep an eye out for our monthly Steam announcement on the 1st where a complete listing of bug fixes and API changes for this month's release will be listed. The in-game news button on the main menu will direct you directly to the announcement once it is live.

As always, if you are having issues of any sort, definitely don't hesitate to check out our FAQ on github[github.com] or reach out to us at our Discord[discord.com].

TMODLOADER STEAM WORKSHOP

WHAT'S NEXT FOR TML?

PlayStation, XBOX, Nintendo Switch, Mobile - DR STUDIOS

Another month of keeping pace while also tackling some console/mobile specific issues (more on that in a moment) has gone by and we are as excited as ever! Even managing to get a little crossplay progress done in the background. That said, you came for the spoilers so here they are!

We wanted to show off the new Rat Transformation as well - so we hope you enjoy seeing this different spin on this month's spoiler!

BANNERS BANNERS EVERYWHERE!

We have also been hard at work in an attempt to simplify and clarify Control Banners (the little areas that show button mappings on screen). This has been a complaint we have heard from many Terrarians, so we hope this helps - and makes more sense - than the current version. Let's dive into some details!

KEEP IN MIND THAT THIS IS ALL VERY WORK IN PROGRESS AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE!

In the live version of the game, a control banner at the bottom of the screen displays every single binding.

---

Because absolutely everything is listed here, it forces players to “fish” for specific actions. This takes a considerable amount of time and slows gameplay down, as it creates a disconnect between where the controls are displayed versus where the player is looking.

To address this, we started by splitting the bottom banner off into several dedicated ones. At the moment these exist in the following places:

Bottom of the screen. This is primarily for a few general items which are not context-specific. At the moment we are working to shorten this, as it is still somewhat long (in part because all bindings display now, regardless of whether a modifier trigger is held).

Up near the minimap & state display - contains smart cursor, map options, chat options, and the like.
Next to the hotbar - contains anything related to the inventory, as well as information for hotbar swapping

At the bottom of inventory pages - these contain bindings that you would normally perform in the inventory, such as splitting a stack and others.

---

On top of this, however, we’ve also started placing certain bindings in bespoke areas

If a “Switch to Hotbar #X” binding exists, we display it over the respective hotbar slot.

If an inventory binding exists for something that has a side button (such as Quick Stack or Tools), then we display it below the button.

We are hoping these make certain actions clearer to players, and allow more focus to go towards gameplay and less on figuring out what each button does.

---

Until next time, Console & Mobile friends - thanks for all of your love and support!

TERRARIA GRAPHIC NOVEL SERIES - UPDATE ON NEW SHIPPING SYSTEM AND ISSUE 6

Hello everyone!

We tried to have an update on the new international shipping system integration and the re-opening of orders ready in time for today's State of the Game, but we ran into some last minute technical issues that we want to iron out first. Most important is ensuring the best possible customer experience when we open up the gates. When we reopen, we will unveil the issue 6 materials and this time, they will be in stock as we begin taking orders, so we will be able to ship new orders without delay.

Won't be much longer - we figure it will be sometime next week, barring any more last minute problems.

Stay tuned!!!

Terraria Enters its Teens!

16 maj

You heard right, everyone - Terraria has officially entered its teenage years. Don't worry, we promise that we won't be any more moody and rebellious than we always have been! This time of the year is always special to the Terraria development team. It is a time of celebration, but moreso a time of reflection: on the journey we have taken thus far, what is coming soon, and what may lie ahead beyond that horizon. It is humbling to know that our small team has been able to release and support a game as successful as Terraria for all these years.

Even more humbling is the unwavering support that each of you have shown us throughout those thirteen years. Through the ups and downs that game dev and even life has thrown at us - and all of you - your support has been the one constant that we know we can rely on each and every day. In fact. we appreciate you so much that we got YOU a birthday present...

In celebration of Terraria's 13th Anniversary - and building upon the recent Undeluxe Edition - we are releasing Terraria 1.1 as a beta branch on Steam today!

Enter a world where Hardmode was brand new and the mech bosses represented the ultimate challenge - take a glimpse at how far Terraria has come!

TERRARIA FIRST FINAL VERSION (v1.1.2) DEDICATED SERVER EXE[forums.terraria.org]

We are looking forward to seeing what you make of Terraria 1.4.5 an Crossplay (hopefully!) . Who knows what exactly the future holds beyond that, but what we do know is that the path forward for the Terraria franchise and its fans is a very bright one! We expect to see you all back here next year and for many more years to come!

TALL TALES FROM TERRARIA TESTERS

We thought it might be fun for everyone to get a chance to hear a few stories from our Terraria testing crew. These could be broad personal reflections - or even just fun little happenings that occurred along the way over the years. Without further ado, let the storytelling commence!

DARTHMORF
Hey everyone, I’m ‘darthmorf’ or Sam – some of you may know me as a moderator on the Terraria forums or may have used my Terraria Logo Maker[terraria-logo-maker.darthmorf.co.uk] tool. I’ve also been lucky enough to help test early version of the game since around mid 2017 and have had a great time over the years getting to peek behind the curtain and get to know the developers and my fellow testers (and a few other people from the community too!). The group multiplayer playthroughs are so much fun, and I still manage to learn something new about the game every time I play ... between the many many deaths that is. Certain moments during testing for both Master Mode and the even harder seed variants like 'For the Worthy' were particularly tough, not to mention the trolling from other members of the testing team and even the developers! I very much empathise with the original 1.3 Expert Mode testers ...

We got to see lots of funny, weird and interesting bugs too. I sadly can't mention all of them, but a favourite of mine was the brief period of time when ALL projectiles were affected by wind. It made certain boss fights quite interesting, even if it was totally unplayable! Just don't mention infinite boulders, or the 'Wall of Guide'...

Hmm, yes this is how you sit in a chair, right?

There seems to be something wrong with this campfire.

Motion smoothing for teleporting enemies might have been a mistake...

What do you mean I can't deploy my stool while grappled to a wall!?

Another huge highlight of my time was getting to meet up with a few other members of the community, along with some people from Re-Logic, DR Studios and 505 Games back in July 2019[forums.terraria.org]. It was truly a blast to hang out in person and I cannot wait until we get to do it next.

I've been a part of this amazing community for a while now, and I'm still blown away by just how friendly and kind everyone is. It's been a huge privilege to witness everything I have, and to take part in so much. I'm proud to have been able to give back a little by organising community events such as the amazing Creation Compendium[forums.terraria.org] (go check these out if you haven't - there are some stunning creations in there!) I'd also like to thank Re-Logic from the bottom of my heart for all the amazing opportunities they've given and generosity that they've shown me. I'm lucky enough to have my own career in game development which I would not have without what I've learnt testing this game.

Here's to another 13 years!!!
Wall of guide?[forums.terraria.org]

J BAME
I remember back when beta testing 1.4.4 balance changes, Nimbus and I noticed that whip sizes were strangely inconsistent, sometimes some whips were inexplainably bigger than normal. We quickly realized some armors were increasing Whip Range when they were not supposed to. We started taking off pieces to see which one was bugged, then we realized it wasn't just armor, it was accessories too.

It was so weird that we had to ask Leinfors to check the code and see what the problem was. He looked up which items increased whip range... and then he found the problem. When he gave a 10% range bonus to Tiki Mask, he had accidentally given the same buff to 90% of the items in the game.

This was caused by a single character typo in the code: Instead of checking for which Item ID was equal to Tiki Mask's, it was checking which ID was equal or greater than Tiki Mask's. That was a fun day. We will always remember you, Leinfors.

AURORA3500
My story with Terraria began with learning about it when I was in my last year of high school through youtube videos shared by my classmates. It looked like a very interesting game and I got it gifted to me in late 2011. I played it overtime and learned a lot about it starting from 1.1. And then lurked in Terraria Online for a few years. Mostly to follow dev updates and to get Tconfig Mods.

Later when TCF was born, I would join that after learning it was the new official Forums of Terraria. At 1st I still lurked, and mostly used it to see news for the updates. Seeing the announcement for both Terraria Otherworld and 1.3 was a very exciting time and I got involved more in the community during that time.

I had no idea where it would lead a year later, as the call for new Moderators was put out, I put in a moderator application. Because TCF had become more than a place to discuss Terraria. It was a family. I was inspired from learning what Terraria developers such as Leinfors and Ghostar have done for the game and seeing that they started out as Forum members just like many of us. When I was accepted into the Forum staff, the Forum staff and developers also became family to me. TCF means a lot to me due to how a real effort is put forth to ensure that it is a welcoming place for many people. It is taken for granted across the internet which is why it feels like a treasure.

Sometime after that, I was accepted as a beta tester, to test for the game I love a ton and have invested more hours than any other game into. Together with Unit One who joined the Forum staff and became a tester at the same time as me, we tested the end of 1.3.5, and began to test 1.3.6. At the time none of us had any idea it would become the grand 1.4 update known as Journey's End.

As it developed, I continued my work on the Forums with the Forum staff, and also worked with Leinfors and other testers to test the game, report bugs, and share our own feedback. Memories with Leinfors, other testers from our chats and playthroughs are memories I continue to cherish. One of my favorite moments of 1.4 testing was when the Bestiary was confirmed to be added to the game. I love Monster Guide type features in the various JRPGs and Metroidvanias I love and I doubted my eyes that it was also coming to Terraria. I asked Lein if I was dreaming. And he assured me that I wasn't dreaming, that it was being planned for awhile. It's a moment that still gets me giddy.

One of the favorite bugs I discovered during 1.4 testing was with the Zombie Merman Moonwalking backwards. It never made it to release due to how I looked at Blood Moon fishing once it was added.

1.4.4 is another standout update to me. It is my next favorite update due to how it added the Remix seed, and increased the stack size for all items to 9999, among other additions.

Terraria itself has held longtime appeal to me due to how it takes elements of platformers, metroidvania games, and JRPGs and blends them with sandbox building gameplay. They have always been my favorite types of games and are mixed perfectly in Terraria.

Beyond Terraria itself, the community, dev team, and my fellow Forum staff members and testers remain an important family to me. To this day I continue to give what I can to it in hopes of making all of it an even better place.

Times were hard in 2023 when we lost Leinfors. It has taken time to process, but I've used that time to better myself physically and mentally in multiple areas of life, and continue to be an active part of the Forums while testing the game. I think it's what Lein would want. So I plan to keep giving myself to TCF, and Terraria, to ensure the Forums can be a home for anyone, and to make 1.4.5 another amazing update, and anything beyond that as well.

CRIDDLE
Hi, I'm Criddle! Maybe you know me from somewhere? I've been a beta tester since May 2017. Getting to contribute to the game and helping out the developers at Re-Logic alongside my fellow testers has been pretty incredible.

One of my favorite things to remember are the times we got to create our own paintings. The group playthroughs are also always exciting and chaotic. It can be really interesting listening to the devs discuss ideas.

Over the years I've run into many strange and amusing issues while testing the game.

...did someone mention infinite boulders?

FAIRYPRINCESSSERENITY
So, I don't exactly have a lot of funny stories to share. I tend to do a lot of the background building work that benefits everyone whenever our collective group does a playthrough together to test out new features. Arenas, NPC housing, farms. You get the idea. When I'm not doing that, I like to do things that try to break the game. If I can get Red to go “We gotta nerf that,” that's a good day. I also like to do funny stuff when no one is looking so they can react to it later on.

I remember when I imported a bunch of Terra Toilets into the playthrough world we were on, and I put them at a bunch of fishing holes. When someone asked why that was there I said “If you sit on a toilet, it makes you fish better. All the expert fishermen sit on toilets.” You know what happened? That joke became an actual feature.

When a bunch of us beta testers first joined the crew, we joined a world that had just gotten started a few hours ago. Red said “You need to use torches that match the biome you're in” because we were starting to test torch luck. I wanted to live in the ice biome, but I hate the ice torches. But Leinfors said as long as I don't use wrong torches, it wasn't against the rules to use whatever I want. So I used White Torches. And Lamps. And Lanterns. I made my home. Expanded it. Again, and again. I ended up making this amazing frozen base, and then because I had a lot of time to spare, I built a whole mountain on top of that. I remember that mountain fondly. Whenever I'm feeling nostalgic, I open that world and have a look at it. I wasn't an outlier - Everyone had a house on that world. One of the other testers (I won't say who) was crazy enough to have their house in the Crimson biome.

XMAN101
During one of the beta playthroughs for 1.4, Leinfors and a number of other testers were trying to figure out a strange bug with the Windy Day music. It seemed to play without rhyme or reason.

Turns out, it was no bug. It just so happened that my base on this playthrough was in range of spawn and I had set up a music box to play Windy Day at my base. Once discovered, it was promptly deactivated by Leinfors.

UNIT ONE
Happy Birthday Terraria!

It has been a wild ride that I am so thankful for. Getting to beta test the game is a dream come true, and working with my fellow beta testers has been such a wonderful experience. All of them love the game, and nerd out to it like I do, sometimes so much so that I can't keep up with their knowledge. They are truly passionate and experts at what they do.

One of my favorite bugs involved platinum axes showing up on empty weapon racks after opening legacy worlds. The weapon racks would be empty, I'd save and quit. Then open up that world in the newest beta, and boom, there were platinum axes on them. But not on all the empty weapon racks, it seemed so random and weird. Like I'm sure many of the other beta testers will mention in their stories, it was Leinfors that was right there, ready to dive into it.

After his first reaction (which was "Wtf Unit, phantom Platinum Axes" to which I replied, "Yeahhhh, I dunno..."), he posted this:

Everyone tried to figure it out, people were loading in old worlds and got the platinum axes showing up, but only on certain racks. After a bit, we left it for the dev team to sort out (like they always magically do).

So many platinum axes! Can you spot why it was happening? Turns out that only the weapon racks facing left were getting these phantom axes. Right-facing weapon racks remained empty on world load. Once Yorai and Lein had figured it out, all the phantom axes were put to rest, never to show up again.

DOYLEE
Don't challenge the creator of the game to a copper shortsword duel. He will win in ways you don't initially expect, whether that be boulders or banishment.

MANAUSER
One time I found an obscure bug in the king statue. Specifically, a lightning bug. We were testing 1.4 which added the NPC happiness system, and I took it upon myself to manually check every neighbor combination and biome preference. That all went fine, but I was using the king and queen statues to help with moving NPCs around and happened to find something completely different: The king statue could summon lightning bugs if there were any on the screen. That bug report got a surprised "Whaaaat" from Leinfors. But it turned out that the king statue was supposed to (and now does) work on the traveling merchant, but guess no one ever noticed it wasn't working because they didn't know it should. See, the traveling merchant is NPC 368 and the lightning bug is NPC 358 so a little typo was all it took to get a funny result.

SIGMA
Greetings, Terrarians!

You are probably reading this hoping for spoilers? Loki has been posting teasers for Terraria 1.4.5. At Re-Logic? They're actively working on Terraria 1.96.3!

Don't hold your breath waiting for Terraria 2… it’s at least 3000 years away.

Nah, just kidding. This is one of many amusing bugs that have come up during playtesting. After all, Terraria is a game where eating lunch in midair is a comparatively normal thing to do.

When a game has existed for 13 years and has over 5000 items (and counting), there are going to be strange and unexpected interactions. One of the very early (if not first) bugs I reported as a tester:

When meteors were shown in the background before landing, they were initially visible in the Underworld.

Herein provides an interesting crossover between bugs and contributions. An early version of my painting ‘Blessing from the Heavens’ was a reference to this. It had an Underworld frame and was intended to be found in Obsidian Towers. But the Towers were already quite full of paintings, so it was moved to the Floating Islands and given a skyware frame. Having the opportunity to make some paintings has been the biggest highlight of being involved with Terraria. I hope you like the paintings as much as we did making them!

(Leinfors, I am grateful that you were able to make `Strange Growths’ cycle between the four painting types when placed. You are missed by us all.)

Tester contributions are strictly cosmetic – paintings, names, tooltips, etc. Any new content and the direction of the game is with Re-Logic and its developers. Ever noticed how all of the town slimes’ names start with S? That was somewhat coincidental. We contributed names for slimes on a spreadsheet. Eventually we noticed a pattern emerged: The majority of them started with S. The team decided to keep it that way. (Most of those references the wiki mentions are not actually references. It's coincidental the name is the same.)

Speaking of references… Contrary to what the wiki says, the in-game dog name Lucky has nothing to do with 101 Dalmatians. It’s the name of my real-life dog. He is not a dalmatian. If you do want to find a new reference, there’s another in-game dog name named after my real-life dog. His name comes from a TV show.

I made the Abigail screenshot that was used in the 1.4.3 release announcement. It was not used, but I also made an in-game screenshot with Deerclops, Chester and Wilson.

With news about greedy corporations, abandoned Early Access launches, on-disc DLC, and mob votes to garner attention – how has Terraria managed to live so long, and with so many free updates? The answer: Everyone in Re-Logic plays Terraria and enjoys it. They all want the best they can. Whether paid or volunteer, it really is a labour of love. It's been 5 years since I was asked to join the testing team and I've enjoyed every minute of it. Throughout the journey, I've met some amazing people and made very good friends.

To Re-Logic: Thank you for the opportunity. I am grateful for it every day.

To my fellow team members: You are some of the most amazing people I know.

To the player base: Your enthusiasm, dedication and strong community are what has kept (and will keep) Terraria growing and expanding. Everything Re-Logic does, it does for you.
-- Sigma

DISCIPILE
One of the most memorable experiences I’ve had so far in my time as a tester for Terraria was during the summer of 2022, where Redigit invited us to play through a yet-to-be-polished version of what, at the time, was called the “everything seed” (later known as the “zenith” and “get fixed boi” seeds). The most notable difference between what we played and what was released was the number of Queen Bee larvae scattered throughout the world (it has since been drastically reduced after this playthrough, due to the sheer number of accidental summons and therefore effective armageddons during the early game). There were times where Red got so fed up with the Queen Bee summons he would temporarily give himself a Meowmere and slay them all.

However as amazing as all of this was to experience first hand, what I remember the most, and will likely never forget, was when we, the testers and developers of Terraria, were set to face off against the underworld’s fiercest pre-hardmode foe, the Wall of Flesh — only there was one unforeseen issue that was only discovered halfway through the fight: the world difficulty was set to effectively Master mode, whereas it should have been set to Expert. As such, we were set to face a Wall of Flesh with just over 200,000 health, and the encounter resulted in several dozen deaths, and the Wall of Flesh going from one side of the world, to the other, undefeated, with just under half of their health remaining. This was the single most scuffed boss battle I have ever encountered in almost 13 years of playing Terraria, and also the single most enjoyable. There was even a time during the fight where everyone in the world other than Redigit and I had been slain; to fight alongside the creator of Terraria as other testers and developers cheered us on as we fought against the Wall of Flesh was nothing short of an unforgettable experience to say the least.

JENOSIS
Hello! I’m Jenosis and I’d like to share my experience in Terraria both before and after I became a tester!

Before I played Terraria I was unironically in the camp of “oh wow 2D Minecraft”. It started in 2012 with a friend asking me to come over and play it with him for a weekend while his parents were out of town. It felt slow and kind of clunky at first, at least on console (PS3), but it started to get really good and before I knew it I was running around in Hell with a space laser gun re-enacting the whole plot of DOOM trying to find magic weapons.

I returned home and asked my parents if I could download and play it on our family computer (which was quite ancient). I began to play it and forgot about it for a good bit (as it was my senior year in highschool), but returned to it shortly after my graduation after enrolling in Fall college classes. I found the Crimson and told my friend all about it and he spent hours trying to find it on his PS3.

As Terraria grew and updated, so did I and eventually began to dabble in modding it with tAPI a few months before 1.3 came out. Come 1.3 in all of its QoL and much needed expansion on existing content I was having even more fun and tModLoader was just starting to become a thing. I got back into modding again and made even more friends while doing so.

Come 2019 I had a hard time trying to keep up with everything in my life. I got something in my TCF inbox one day and it was Cenx reaching out to me asking if I wanted to become a tester. I felt butterflies in my stomach for the sole reason of being involved in one of my favorite all time games. The first day of setup was information and sensation overload, but I learned a lot more than I thought I was going to for my first day.

Over the course of 1.4 Beta there was much to test and find bugs for; I happened to catch a lot of tile related bugs in the process. One of my favorites was being able to plant the vanity trees on gray bricks. Another bug I loved, that was unexplainable and couldn’t repro even now, was the crystal sentry beams coming from the pet butterfly. Makes me wish we had a butterfly summon now.

Seasons have come and gone; so have phases of testing beta updates. Lein had unexpectedly passed away leaving all of us distraught and lost without him. He was a great person and mentor who helped expand, and understand, my views on game development. To this day whenever I or other testers suggest something; I tend to look at it with a reasonably critical eye to see where said thing could fit into the grand scheme of the game.

I’m loving my time helping out and testing the harder bugs so I can help make Terraria a better and more bug free game. Here’s to Terraria and its wonderful community I’ve had the absolute pleasure of interacting with, cheers!

NIKE LEON
My beta testing horror story is from back in 2015. After one of the updates my character saves started overwriting each other. Nobody else was having the bug. And then the next update mysteriously fixed it.We never could figure out why...

Terraria State of the Game - April 2024

25 apr

Greetings Terrarians!

Spring is finally here - and with it, warmer weather, green plants, and colorful flowers. We noticed lots of speculation that spring would bring the release of 1.4.5 - sorry to say that those guesses were incorrect. The team still has quite a few things that we want to get to, and you never know what else might come up. Terraria development has always been sort of organic in that way. Rest assured that we share your desire to get this out just as soon as possible - but we have always stuck to the mantra that we will only put out an update when we feel it is fully complete and ready. So, hang with us just a bit longer, it should be well worth the wait!

That said, let's take a moment to meander through the garden of Terraria news and spoilers shall we?

PC - RE-LOGIC

TERRARIA 1.4.5 - VAMPIRES AND BUGS AND CONVEYORS, OH MY!

The team really enjoyed seeing how everyone reacted to last month's spoilers - especially Roller Skates! We have been doing a team and tester playthrough on the Vampire Seed over the past two weeks, and we have an even greater appreciation for these new masters of mobility than ever before. Once you skate your way through the Wall of Flesh fight, you may never go back! As always, these playthroughs generate a ton of notes about balance and new ideas as well as highlighting some nasty bugs that we can then fix along the way. You know, things like "Oh oops, with the new item stacking feature, you can accidentally reforge multiple items at once... we better fix that before the Goblin Tinkerer gets so rich, he retires."

We can think of no better way to spend nearly 9,000 platinum... don't worry, we fixed this already.

Our Vampire playthrough ended as it should... with each of us cooking in the sun, except Redigit, who may or may not be a daywalker...That being said, how about a little spoiler for everyone - the latest in the many conveniences coming your way in Terraria 1.4.5!

Conveyor Belts have unlocked the Y Axis!

TERRARIA GRAPHIC NOVEL SERIES - UPDATE ON NEW SHIPPING SYSTEM AND ISSUE 6!

Hello everyone!

Big things are afoot at 50 Amp Productions!

NEW SHIPPING PARTNER COMING ONLINE - SALES TEMPORARILY PAUSED
You may have noticed upon visiting the 50 Amp site that the store is currently unavailable. This is so that we can take the time needed to fully onboard our new global shipping and distribution partner without risking any disruption or orders getting lost in that transition. In addition, 50 Amp closed sales during this time in order to ensure that every existing order has been honored and taken care of before accepting new ones. The store will reopen upon completion of EVERY shipment outstanding - we do not expect this to take long, but we wanted you to know.

So, what will this new system mean long term? More reliable shipping, cheaper international (non-US) shipping rates, and quicker delivery times. At the time when we re-open the storefront, Issue 6 comic and collectibles will be available to order, as well as having all products from issues 1-5 in stock. This means no delays in shipping times for any Issue 1-5 orders and a smooth release of Issue 6 when all of those items arrive at the warehouse.

ISSUE 6 IS COMING SOON - COVER REVEAL!
50 Amp is also excited to have the issue 6 cover reveal to share with you right here and right now.

This image is available for you to download and print or use as wallpaper on your computers or devices - you can also request any specific sizes you might want if what we have isn't working for you. Click the link below to check it out!

TERRARIA - THE BOARD GAME UPDATES

TERRARIA - THE BOARD GAME DESIGNER DIARY

Here we are again with the latest "Designer Diary" entry from the lead designer for Terraria: the Board Game - Chris Kingsnorth. Let's see what he and the Paper Fort team have been up to over the last month!
---

Hello Terrarians!

Chris here, game developer at Paper Fort Games; I’m back with another Terraria: The Board Game designer diary. We’re ramping up to the launch of the Kickstarter next month, so I’ll be providing more gameplay info, showcasing new art, revealing a new boss sculpt and talking about UKGE, the UK’s biggest tabletop gaming convention.

If you don’t want to read the diary, but still want to sign up for launch info, just visit Get Ready for ⛏ Terraria: The Board Game[www.backerkit.com]! (we’re almost at 24,000 Terrarians!)

[www.backerkit.com]---

How on Earth Will Terraria work as a Board Game?
Understandably, lots of Terraria players have asked this question. The videogame has a huge amount of content and features complex mechanisms that are usually handled by code behind the scenes; how could that possibly be achieved using cardboard? We’re also keenly aware that tabletop games based on videogames don’t always capture the essence of the game they’re based on, so we understand if you’re feeling sceptical.

From the outset, we’ve been committed to creating a Terraria board game, not a board game with a Terraria theme. It’s a huge challenge, but we want the game to be faithful to the world that Re-Logic have created.

So how do we turn a huge sandbox game into a tabletop experience? How do we make it feel like Terraria?

A new world each time you play: Using a simple minimap and biome tile system, you’ll generate a unique world during each game of Terraria: The Board Game. Choose an evil biome (or randomise it), build your hidden minimap and reveal new world tiles as you travel around the world. With each flip of a tile, experience the excitement of discovering new biomes to explore, chests to open and enemies to fight!

The freedom to choose: Player choice is a core principle of Terraria. Want to build a Hellavator? Go for it. Want to run to the ocean? You can, whether it’s a good idea or not! You’ll choose which objective chains to attempt in each game (many of which you’ll recognise as achievements from the videogame) and use a small personal deck of cards to generate action points; it’s then up to you how to spend them.

Dig, fight, explore, build: Use your action points to move around the world, or convert them with your starting copper equipment cards to dig tunnels, mine ores and gems, chop down trees for wood or fight enemies for loot. Building a base of houses will unlock crafting stations and spawn helpful NPCs who will heal you, sell useful items and provide backup in sticky situations.

Character customisation: Using armor sets (printed on transparent cards that overlay your character board) and upgraded equipment cards, you can choose a playstyle that suits you. By purchasing new, more powerful cards for your deck and scrapping those you no longer need, you can personalise your experience even further; that’s the beauty of deckbuilding. Maybe you’re into sword-swinging melee fights, or sneaky long-range strikes, or would prefer to unleash a barrage of magic attacks. Perhaps you just want to visit every corner of the world, or collect as many resources as possible; the choice is yours.

Enemies and Boss Battles: As you traverse the world and spelunk underground, you’ll encounter over 30 different enemy types, including slimes, zombies, antlions, skeletons, bats, demon eyes, worms, salamanders and voodoo demons. You’ll use a simple dice battling system to fight enemies and gain loot; upgraded weapons will grant access to more powerful dice and by using action cards, you’ll be able to influence encounters in your favour by weakening your foes, buffing your character, rerolling your attacks and more…

Fight King Slime, Queen Bee, Eye of Cthulhu, Brain of Cthulhu, Eater of Worlds and Wall of Flesh in epic boss battles using unique modular miniatures, which include a shrinking King Slime and Wall of Flesh with removable eye and mouthparts!

(Be sure to read on for the reveal of the Eater of Worlds miniature!)

Co-operative play for 1-4 Terrarians: The game supports solo play, or multiplayer games up to 4 players. Share resources, build bases as a team and fight enemies together. With cards that benefit you *and* other players, you can create memorable moments for everyone at the table!

New Art: King Slime!

George has knocked it out of the park with this painting; everyone’s favourite gelatinous boss and the poor enveloped ninja! Let us know what you think in the comments!

---

New Sculpt: Eater of Worlds!
Our final boss sculpt arrived this week; the Eater of Worlds! This miniature will also be modular; when EoW is sufficiently damaged, the miniature will split.

Meet Us at UKGE 2024!

From May 31st to June 2nd, we’ll be showing Terraria: The Board Game at UK Games Expo (UKGE) held in Birmingham, UK. If you’re coming to the show, please stop by and say hello; you’ll find us at the booth 1-774 (in Hall 1). You’ll be able to play the game, chat with us about the design, take pictures at our life-size King Slime photobooth and win free merch at our Terraria-themed beanbag toss, courtesy of Re-Logic and the terraria.shop crew! It’s going to be a lot of fun and we’d love to see you there.

---

Critter Recap
Last month, we asked for your favourite critters; we’re going to be adding as many as we can to the game’s biome tiles. We had some great suggestions, including squirrels, seagulls, seahorse, mystic frogs, grubby, sluggy, dolphins, bunnies, owls and ducks but let us know in the comments if we’ve missed any that you’d like to see!

---

Reforge, Anyone?
Finally, we wanted to share a meme we put together which proved very popular; everyone’s favourite goblin-shaped piggy bank!

---

Don’t Miss Out!
If you haven’t already, sign up at Get Ready for ⛏ Terraria: The Board Game[www.backerkit.com]! and be sure to click through to the Kickstarter ‘notify me’ page. We’d be very grateful if you could share the link with fellow Terrarians via social media; you’re always welcome to tag us in using @paperfortgames.

You can also follow us on Twitter, Instagram[www.instagram.com] and Facebook[www.facebook.com].

Until next time!

Terraria: Undeluxe Edition - Out Now!

1 apr

We have heard the Terraria Community's cries to bring back the versions of Terraria from long long ago for many years now. Frankly, we appreciate the nostalgia as much as anyone, but to say that the daunting task of trying to remove 13 years of content from the game has held us back from doing so would be a massive understatement!

That being said, we are pleased to share with you all that starting today, the Terraria Undeluxe Edition is available for fans everywhere to enjoy!

Highlights of this massive downdate include:

DIG

12 Biomes to explore - who needs locations like the Ice Biome... too darned cold!
Be careful not to trip as you leap over single-high blocks
Rope? Minecarts? Blocks and platforms will suffice.
The Crimson was deemed too nasty and the Hallow too sweet, so they both have been kicked to the curb.
Demon Altars (those purple spiky things) are now immortal - resistance is futile!
Cacti can and will damage you - I mean they ARE covered in needles after all
Built-in Bunny Protection will prevent you from accidental Bunny-cide.
Delve deep into caves free from the threat of boulders and traps

[/b]
[/list]

FIGHT

Over 360 items/weapons/armor/etc. to find and craft
45 enemies will seek to defeat you at every turn!
Defeat the Goblin Army to obtain the greatest mobility accessory in the game, the Rocket Boots!
To maintain accuracy the Scraggler was re-added then promptly removed
Four challenging boss encounters await
Face the terrifying Final Boss, Skeletron!
Challenge the endgame Dungeon for fortune and glory!

[/b]
[/list]

BUILD

All 8 NPCs are now clearly labeled by their role so you don't have to remember that Helen is your Nurse
Enjoy the streamlined experience of items without any nasty modifiers - no Goblin Tinkerer to take your hard-earned coins here!
Speaking of coins, you are going to need to carry them with you if you want to buy something.
Valid housing? Figure it out yourself.
Axes are now required to chop up all wood blocks - we don't want any accidents!
Chests contain a whopping 20 storage slots for you to stash your piles of loot!
Avoid accidentally using items by being sure they are in your hotbar prior to use - waste not, want not!
Wire? Where you are going, you won't need wires.
Paints? Dyes? Angles and slopes? Who needs that kind of variety in their life?

[/b]
[/list]

You can only imagine the sheer amount of time and effort it took to remove almost 500 enemies/critters, 21 bosses, 5100 items, 32 NPCs, 14 biomes (and all of the mini-biomes), 82 music tracks, 586 tilesets, and so on. A small price to pay for the awesomeness that is Terraria v1.06! Starting today, you can pick up Terraria Undeluxe Edition at your favorite Steam Store! We know you will join us in enthusiastically welcoming Terraria Undeluxe Edition to the Terraria family of games!
