And BTW that source was rewritten by their new coder, because they've got him after the "alpha" mark. But yeah, there's also code for caves and deep mineral placement. Just no code for furniture at all.

The engine is really sexy :).

Meh, as it is, all that seems readable are some XML files, useless... Unless you know something I don't know.

As I said, I didn't download it. I just know that there's a source leak, but  I didn't look for the link.

AHHH

I can't read "Terraria" anymore without imagining Pbat saying it.

GET OUT... GET OUT!!!

also... no I am not joking...

Heheh. Terrerwria.

So does the game have a confirmed release date now? People keep talking about it but I can't find any.

No date, but supposedly Blue has stated the month of the release to be June.

I think in Paperbat's co-op LP with Blue (Ep 23 I think), Blue stated that it could be anywhere from now(the start of May) to the end of July. The game is apparently ready for release, they're just sorting out legal stuff and adding content in the mean time.

Yeah, the "june" was after that. Just do a search for #Terraria on Twitter.

Yup Blue mentioned it on his twitter account. There's some other stuff that we've been talking about too (underground houses, moving your spawn point) and it's a good one to follow if you have an account because it's pretty much all relevant and has pretty rare but relatively informative updates.

The moment the lever was pulled, somebody's pet kitten stepped onto the bridge. I read somewhere that if a cat falls more than 11 stories, it instinctively flares its legs out to increase air resistance. This slows it down enough to stick the landing with relatively minor injuries. In Dwarf Fortress, apparently, cats don't do that.

Twitter sits in my hosts file. I'll just pick up the updates here and otherwise wait patiently.

I think I would remember if I had amnesia.
I'd like to remind everyone that half of the time I don't even know what I'm talking about. The other half of the time I only sort of know what I'm talking about.

BOOYAH

I have to admit, I'm happy for me, Steam, the Terraria devs and happy that the vocal minority wearing cat ears and freaking out about Steam now must deal.

Anyone want to bet me there won't be a TF2 hat tie-in?

Only good news if I get a TF2 hat out of it.

The game looks great, I can't wait to try it.
