If they do decent modding API, they've killed Minecraft already.

Assuming it's released for alpha testing, Notch linked to the videos, so there will be an army of the bad part of the MC community that will want to try it, and presumably think "OMG I PAY FOR DIS Y I NO LIKE IT?" and go into the entitlement bullshit.

OH LORD, the self entitled people. I don't know what it is about these games that makes them that way.

I hear that they announced on Twitter that the release date has been moved up from "some time this year" to "less than a few months." They seem to have changed it on the FAQ as well.

On what platform(s) will Terraria be available?

Terraria is being developed primarily for Windows, but we may bring it to iOS and/or Xbox platforms.

...?  Now just how would they do that?

Apparently, the language they're using is easy to port to Xbox.

Posting to follow the topic on a great-looking game. I'd join the "shut up and take my money" camp if I had any online-capable moneypouch available.

They've made 24 of them in one go, they're just slowly releasing them.

They're all backdated so they don't show up in subscriptions automatically.
