Jerrymander United States19 Posts July 19 2012 00:06 GMT #1 One of the spriters from the Terraria team decided to start up on a new project earlier this year called Starbound. It's basically Terraria with ever so slightly better graphics and a much more expansive universe (literally). The game is still currently in development, but when I checked out their website, I was very excited for what they're doing over there. You will be able to play on multiple planets with their own generated biomes and landscapes. You will be able to explore, collect fauna, craft items and mounts(!), and customize endlessly. I have been on their site less than an hour but this game has gotten me very excited! Here's a link to their website: http://playstarbound.com/ Roadmap of their current progress with development: http://www.playstarbound.com/roadmap/ Tiy's Twitch.tv account containing demo/playtest videos: http://www.twitch.tv/tiyuri/ Screenshots: + Show Spoiler + + Show Spoiler + + Show Spoiler + + Show Spoiler + + Show Spoiler + + Show Spoiler + + Show Spoiler + Playable Races: - Humans - The Apex - The Avians - The Florans - The Glitch - An Aquatic Race (can be seen in web character creation) Current Features: - Random Monster Generation - Biomes! - Procedurally Generated Guns - Semi-random Dungeon Generation - Water & Flow Dynamics - Combat Depth: Shields - Space Travel - Character Creation - Awesome Music If you guys want to support Starbound's development, you can pre-order here. The game is currently in development, so I will update this post as more info is released! Update (4/28/2013): Added Glitch, Roadmap, music, and pre-order links.

KiWiKaKi Canada691 Posts August 16 2012 21:31 GMT #7 In fact, this game will have 20 times or more content than terraria

PandaCore Germany553 Posts November 06 2012 10:22 GMT #13 It seems I will be tired for weeks when this game is released. Terraria did the same thing to me...

TelecoM United States10673 Posts November 06 2012 17:30 GMT #16 Wow I wasn't really interested in Terraria but this game looks really fun and amazing, I really want to try this out. Can't wait !!

Thalandros Netherlands1151 Posts November 06 2012 17:44 GMT #17 Looks to be amazing if it's only Terraria in the slightest. So going to play this with my friends. ^^

jtype England2167 Posts November 06 2012 17:58 GMT #18 I really didn't like the idea of Terraria originally, but I was playing Minecraft at the time and had only ever heard it described as a 2D Minecraft, which didn't sound appealing at all. That description doesn't come close to covering the depth that the game offers and boy was I glad I gave it a try anyway. Now Starbound is a thing, I can't wait to get my hands on it. It looks like it will really expand on the strengths of the first game (exploration, procedural content generation, tech progression). Definitely one to watch.
