GamePro: "Terraria would be easy to either embrace or dismiss as just a 2D Minecraft clone, but that'd probably be unfair to both. Where Minecraft is first and foremost a sandbox toy and medium for building elaborate structures, sculptures, and mechanisms, its more game-like elements--like fighting monsters and acquiring loot-- sometimes feel almost like an afterthought. Terraria, on the other hand, inverts these priorities.
While it's rewarding to build structures and even megaprojects (one guy recently recreated World 1-1 from Mario Bros.) the game's greatest strength is its satisfying combat, variety of enemies and items, and its sense of progression and empowerment. They're two exceptional games that branch off from the same common trunk."
505 Games has announced update 1.4.5 for Terraria is now available; features crossover content from Palworld and Dead Cells.
Re-Logic: "August was quite an eventful month for Team Terraria. We are well into the final push for Terraria 1.4.5 (for real, more on that below), and tickets are flying through the system. Several members of the team were also able to get together in person this month for the first time in many years - and for the first time ever with some folks. We have also been able to take care of a lot of planning for "what comes next" that will hopefully make for more consistency down the line. More on that in the future. With that said, we are all back home and ready to push this over the line."

Great game except the constant barrage of slimes gets annoying when you're trying to mine and build.
if you make a mineshaft straight down and have shafts coming sideways from it and you put doors right on the edge of the main shaft, you won't get mobs falling on your head.
Such an awesome game, and only 6 megs!
