Starbound - Terreria predecessor

slipsius · Dec 2012

Have you guys seen this? I just heard about it and am so stoked! I was extremely sad when I found out they weren't updating terraria anymore. Now we're getting a full new game that is better in every way! Here's a few videos and info on it.

An improved building system

Procedurally created weapons, flora, planets, enemies, planets. Here's a sample of some of the guns. Not only do they all look different, they all act different as well. Whether it be clip size, or fire rate or whatever.

Improved lighting!

PogoP · Dec 2012

Yep! Been waiting for this for ages now. It's looking great!

Pierate · Dec 2012

Wow, I'm excited! And apparently it's coming out pretty soon, awesome.

Torch · Jun 2013

Just thought I'd bump this thread, I think the developers are hoping to release soon! Terraria fans should be pretty psyched about it

Blaizer · Dec 2013

another BUMP

I got it on steam since a few days. Played 4 hours and there was a wipe today.

Yeah the dev said there would probably be a few wipes during beta as they rework major aspects of the game.
Played it a bit before the wipe, it's pretty fun with some friends! Still needs a bit of work in some areas, but it's amazing the amount of content that's in there already.
Will probably wait for full release to get back into it, character wipes are too mean.

save-file incompatibility, developers aren't deleting any saves

people could write save-file converters to bring their stuff over but that's low-priority for the devs at this point.

We're all pretty crazy for this game at the office!

Torch · Dec 2013

Kinda glad I haven't picked up an XB or PS yet, this and the new Mario title is distraction enough :P

Rob Macko · Jan 2014

I too was hooked on Terraria for a bit, and welcomed the changes this game offers. I'm loving the overall improvements, especially the ability to resource larger sections and item placement with the matter manipulator. I'm sketch to spend too much time on it now as there is going to be another character wipe soon, though supposedly it's going to be the last one until beta ends. Not positive of that however.

Blaizer · Jan 2014

I only played ~4 hours, before the first wipe, and i'm not going to play again until the beta ends. I hate to waste time for nothing, repeating all over again :S

Fuiosg · Jan 2014

how low does this go on sales? I ain't paying full price for another early crapexcess game. Looks interesting though, never played terraria.

Rob Macko · Jan 2014

Yea I need to just stop playing the beta since I will lose all the effort. But, I was enjoying it and learning about how the game works etc quite a bit. As far as Starbound on sale I haven't noticed that it has gone on sale. Perhaps because it's only been out recently, and is still in beta that it never went down during the holidays. Terraria goes down to $2.50 from $10 regularly, so I'd imagine Starbound will eventually have sales down to around $5. I myself already found it to be worth my $15 to support the team

Blaizer · Jan 2014

I bought the game for 15$ as well. I think the game worth each cent, and i love to support these kind of great devs. Starbound is a jewel for me, one of those game you can replay several times.
