Et Tu, RJ?

I want to start a sever with you. how can I contact you?

It's a Demon Altar. You can't pick it up and move it, but while standing at it you can craft certain items.

I noticed just now that the 75% off didn't last the whole day, it is back up to 50% off. 4.99 instead of 2.49

Must have been too popular, they realized they could make more money.

Seems plausible enough for me.

A nice little bonus for those that were camping today's sales, I guess.

I have been playing for a few days, and last night I finally made it deep enough to actually start getting stronger.

I found multiple fields of the glowing mushrooms, surrounded by skeletons and undead miners.

I found 2 or 3 crystal hearts, and a ton of gold. I have a gold broadsword and gold pickaxe, axe, hammer.

I found a:
Boomerang (you can aim it, fire, it comes back, but it doesn't pick up items).
Cloud in a Bottle (Equip it to have double jump)
Regeneration Ring (Awesome)
Shoes that make me run fast (only good for traveling along straight distances).
Magic Mirror (20 Mana, sends me back to my spawn point)

And a few other things. I stumbled upon five gold chests down there, most of the stuff came from them, and then I picked up the chests and put them in my house.

I have four NPCs living with me.
SpoilerGuide
Merchant
Demolitionist
Nurse

I got attacked by a blood moon a few game nights ago and they all died, but they respawned relatively quickly. SpoilerDemolitionist wouldn't respawn until I got my bombs out of my chest and held them for a while.

Once you hit the underground it really opens up. The glowing mushroom caverns are filled with corridors, chests, gold, silver, etc. I reached lava and died (double jump failed as I hit the ceiling and fell into the lava).

After that I decided to explore up top a bit, just started walking to the right, and beyond a large desert I found the dungeon. The Old Man was in front of it. I didn't enter the dungeon, don't think I'm strong enough yet, and I'm not 100% sure how I get the Old Man to let me in.

Then I ran all the way left and the sky started changing colors. Found a large cliff and walked down, the music was a bit different, I think it was a Jungle. There were multiple colored slimes and everything had a light green color. I teleported home since I was in a pit and a bunch of slimes jumped onto me.

All in all it's a fun game.

This is my Current home, housing all my NPCs.


This is a bunch of grass platforms I use to gather mushrooms from for potions.


I've yet to make a pond of water, I think water in this game doesn't infinitely fill like in minecraft, and I don't feel like gathering buckets and buckets to bring up.

Yup, built my house out a bit and the NPC's started spawning.Spoiler Skeletron is a hard boss btw. Your supposed to do the easier ones first. I got the spawn item for eye of Cthulu and I plan to summon him later tonight as my first boss. :)

Oh and here is my modest abode:

Hmm this does not look good. (Me vs Cthulu.)



The Eater of Worlds! I summoned him on a 500 Ebonstone block and fighting lattice I built near my house. The good part about that is not fighting him in the actual corruption and having a nice platform lattice to dodge around on. Also if you die you spawn in your house at the bed you set your spawn to and don't lose the fight. The bad part is he occasionally eats your NPC's and devourer worms spawn in your house until you dismantle the block. :D

Other recent highlights:

Farming meteor armor and making a lightsaber. Holy Crap though those meteor heads hurt.

Ball of Light. Best thing ever.

And a Goblin army invaded my village. That was rad.

This game is a lot more than just minecraft 2D. It has fun old school 2d Boss fights, Events, and armor and weapon progression paths. It's a MMO/RPG in a lot of ways, but fully single player if you want. Best 3 dollars I ever spent.

Oh and Vataro I might be inclined to jump on multiplayer and try to hit the dungeon after I run out of single player options later.

Best part is being able to log your same character into multiple games and servers, you can collect items and stuff from each one and bring them where ever you want :) I joined Vataro's server, and was instantly killed by apparently falling to death. Probably a bug. I respawned right where I died just fine. The tried to jump to the top of his maze of one spot brick tower. Only fell a couple times.

I'm definitely not looking forward to the Goblin Army attack. I haven't found any Shadow Orbs in my single player game either. But I just barely reached Lava, so I haven't been into Hell yet. Found a total of 9 Demonite ore so far.

And yes, this game is much more than Minecraft. It's like a Multiplayer Castlevania with crafting.

I did find an Underground Jungle last night. Those hornets are stupid, but they have a lot of HP. Is there any way to set up teleport points? I have the Magic Mirror to teleport back to my spawn point, but I hate having to travel all the way back down to my latest exploration point.

and with 57 hours played and virtually every item in the game.... done.


(both relieved and a bit sad its over.)

No, but there are a limited number of bosses, and I think there is one dungeon per map.

Eventually you will do everything you can.

I made a hellevator pipeline strait down to hell from my houses basement. I made a mage tower out of dungeon bricks that reached the sky. I found all the floating islands on my map. I made a skyway express that spanned from coast to coast for running with Hermes boots to any of the area's on my map.

I got max health and mana. The top tier of armors in all biomes. Beat all the bosses. Spawned all the NPC's.

Now if I was so inclined after all that I could build projects. I have seen some really nice stuff on the O forums. But that's just not my thing. I enjoyed the game for the exploration, crafting, and events more than anything. But hell a 3 dollar game that gave me almost 60 hours of extremely compelling and addictive gameplay is a win in my book any day.
