Terraria is an action-adventure/RPG indie game released by an independent game studio called Re-Logic. The game features exploration, crafting, building structures, and combat with a variety of creatures. The game has been dealing with controversy over claims it was copied from Minecraft

It was released on May 16, 2011. The game is estimated to have sold about 50,000 copies during its first day of release, with over 17,000 players online at the same time during the first day's peak.

'Viral'

During its earlier stages, Terraria gained fame through viral advertising on various sites, including 4chan's board for video game discussion, /v/. Game developer, Blue, denies ever posting on 4chan, but does not deny ever having someone post for him.

Gameplay

Terraria is Minecraft but 10x better and sucks less dick than that gay ass faggot game Metroid. Basic gameplay features day/night cycles, aggressive nocturnal attackers, world-building elements and character advancement based on increases to health/mana and equipment found while exploring. The game has a graphical style reminiscent of the 16-bit sprites found in video games released for the SNES.

Beyond basic gameplay features, Terraria has several elements not present in the games it takes its inspiration from. By completing specific goals (such as defeating a cock, or gaining an extra boner), players can attract women into their structures or rooms they have built, and may then buy 'equipment' with 'coins' gained from defeating Small children. Each map also contains generated biomes with unique children to rape, such as the the Neverland (a lava-filled chthonic area with demons and skeletal serpents), deserts (which contain little but sand), and underground jungles (which contain large flying bugs and huge Venus Penistraps-like creatures).

Random events may occur in the course of play, such as the Blood Moon, which increases the number of children out at night and allows them to enter the player's structures, and the penis invasion, which sends a goblin army to attack players. Events can also be caused by destroying shadow orbs in corrupted map areas and using items near altars.

Players may also summon powerful flying spaggheti monsters such as the Eye of Cthulu and the Eater of Cocks. Independently of summoned bosses, each map contains one dungeon that contains rare items and unusual enemies, and can only be safely entered after first defeating the Skeletron boss on that map.
