Terraria update teased with pictures of a new biome – and a penguin

PC Gamer

Re-Logic continue to tease the surprise Terraria update announced earlier in the year. In a forum post, designer and artist "Jimmarn" provides screenshots of a new ice biome. Rather than the light snow smattering that covered previous cold-weather climates in the game, this update appears to add a full winter world - with everything from frosty caverns to penguins.

"Some of you might wonder what Terraria related work I'm doing," writes Jimmarn, "and to be honest I do something in every category containing graphics/design. Everything from Tilesets, weapons, items, props, npc's to player graphics," suggesting the potentially huge scope of the update.

Previously Re-Logic head Andrew "Redigit" Spinks posted the below images, showing floating islands and jungle waterfalls:

Steam Indie Spring Sale springs up, discounts loads of indie games in lieu of Easter eggs

PC Gamer

To coincide with IGF, PAX, GDC, OMG and WTF, Steam have slung up one of their impromptu sales, discounting tons of indie games to ensure that our libraries continue to heave under the sheer weight of unplayed games. How nice of them. I hope you've hidden your wallet after last time, because there are some cracking deals to be had, including Super Hexagon, Binding of Isaac and Terraria for silly money.

There's no countdown, so I'm assuming the many games on sale are going to stay the same price until the sale ends on March 29th (the 'Featured' games will likely rotate day by day, without offering any additional savings). There's a lot of games going cheap - more than is evident from the main page - so be sure to poke around for the ones you're interested in. Here are few of the better offers:

FTL - £3.49 (50% off)
Hotline Miami - £3.49 (50% off)
To The Moon - £2.79 (60% off)
Amnesia: The Dark Descent - £3.24 (75% off)
Miasmata - £5.99 (50% off)
Lone Survivor - £3.39 (50% off)
The Blackwell Bundle - £3.74 (75% off)
Retro City Rampage - £3.99 (67% off)
Ultratron, which came out like yesterday - £3.49 (50% off)
Euro Truck Simulator 2 - £12.49 (50% off)

Terraria creator asks what YOU would like to see in a possible update

PC Gamer

It seems today is a good day to speak to the community and ask them how you should update your game. Following the news that Terraria is being ported to consoles with a bunch of new features including split-screen support, a world map and even a new final boss, developer Andrew 'Redigit' Spinks has hinted at a potential update to the PC version of the game. He's taken to the forums to ask players what they want to see, and (at the time of writing) he's received 40 pages worth of replies.

Posing it as a hypothetical question, Spinks posted the following: "Say I am considering doing an update for the PC version of Terraria... In the event that such a thing were to take place, what would be some things that you would be interested in seeing?" Responses include "steal shamelessly from the console functionality", Steam Workshop compatibility, ropes, quicksand, better wiring and larger map types. So far, Spinks appears fond of another pet/s (possibly of the turtle variety), ocean biomes, and more holiday content.

I second the vote for Steam Workshop support, which would give the game an edge over the newer, more feature-packed console versions, and potentially soften the vitriol of those who are angry that it even exists. ALSO: a donkey. I would like a donkey. What about you?

Thanks, PCGamesN.

See The Stuff Terraria Gets On Console That It's (Probably) Not Getting On PC

Kotaku

It was, quietly, one of the biggest PC games of 2011 (and 2012), so it's little surprise that Terraria is heading to consoles.

This clip shows some of the new features coming to the console. Features that, incidentally, weren't originally planned to be coming to the PC version, which has been "finished" for some time now. That said, the game's creator is currently playing the tease...

Terraria will be out on Xbox Live and PSN in a month or two.

A small clue, perhaps? There is a gif below the jump that compelled me to write about this indie Terraria-a-like, Edge Of Space. Go there and you will see. You won’t be disappointed, I promise. (more…)

Here's What Indie PC Smash Terraria Looks Like On Console

Kotaku

As we know, Terraria, a game that on PC went from "huh a side-scrolling Minecraft" to "holy crap it's sold over a million copies" at the speed of light, is coming to consoles.

Here's what it looks like. So, yeah, exactly the same!

Beloved PC Indie Terraria Reborn on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3

Kotaku

PC gamers were saddened when the developers of the pixel-perfect 2D building, exploration and combat game Terraria announced an end to game updates. Well good news, sort of! Terraria is returning with brand-new content... to Xbox Live Arcade and the PlayStation Network.

The announcement that appeared this morning on the game's official Facebook page was met with mixed reactions from Terraria's mainly PC fan base. Some are excited that the game will reach a new audience, hopeful that this new console content will also make its way to PC.

Others are just being fussy.

Great news for a guy who can give 2 shits about consoles.. I think Re-Logic meant to say "Awesome news for us! We're selling out!"

Me? I'm just glad to have more Terraria in any form Re-Logic deems to distribute it in.

Update: The press release has hit, aiming the game at an early 2013 release.

"I can't say how excited I am to finally have Terraria come to Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3 system! To see it come so far is a complete shock, especially after such humble beginnings," said Andrew Spinks, creator of Terraria. "It's always been my dream to have as many people as possible know and enjoy Terraria as much as I have and this is another big step in that direction. It's been awesome working with 505 Games and I can't wait for everyone to see the additional features that they've been able to bring to this new edition of the game."
