If the previous shoot em up didn't wet your appetite how about a nice The Legend of Zelda, Minecraft and Starbound style mix that's just appeared on both Kickstarter and Steam Greenlight? This is 'Adventure Craft' by Edible Entertainment; A Procedurally Generated Action RPG which they claim will push the boundaries of what's been done with action RPG's and to create something truly special
We haven't featured Starbound for a very long time, as although it was one of my favourite games during it's release it did became very stale afterwards and I hadn't touched it since. But the developers are hoping to bring new life into the Terraria style space game with a brand new Winter update, with a very big list of features. From the developers of Terraria, the hit Action, Adventure, Rpg game which sold over 50,000 copies will be patched with new features such as : A new playable race, hundreds of new items, personal ship AI, ship upgrades, new tech systems, new biomes, warp gates, improved status systems, quests, missions and much much more. See trailer!
Game Type : Adventure, Sandbox, Creation, RPG Developer : Chucklefish Update Info : This is one addictive game, there is nothing like traversing the stars, mining for resources, creating new items, buildings and fighting bad guys with tons of planet to explore! This is Starbound, and the latest news from the developers is a very impressive list of upcoming features they hope to implement during it's development. As the game is still in development, you'll be helping to test and provide up to date info to the developers that need to be fixed or added in. If you loved Terraria you'll love this game!
Game Type : Adventure, Sandbox, Creation, RPG Developer : Chucklefish Update Info : After many days of waiting and wondering, would there be a wipe with the next patch for this super sandbox creation game Starbound. Today we found out that yes there is a wipe. But that wipe comes with a glorious patch that fixes not just the leveling of the game but adds brand new weapons, new items and much more. So even though there is a high chance your old character and universe is gone, this game is so addictive it doesn't really matter. Loading up Steam will apply the patch!
Check out this neat little video with the gamers of Starbound, doing their very own rendition of Monty Python's Always look on the bright side of life. Oh and it was created by Andreas Jörgensen and it's so damn cute! If you must know Starbound is really addictive, if you loved Terraria and want to explore the stars, visit new planets, create new weapons and more, I'd highly recommend buying it here.
Game Type : Adventure, Sandbox, Creation, RPG Developer : Chucklefish Game Info Quote : In Starbound you’ll encounter procedurally generated creatures and weapons, discover populated villages and abandoned temples. Explore planets dotted with dungeons, eyeball trees and treasure. Make use of over a hundred materials and over one thousand in-game objects to build a sprawling modern metropolis or a sleepy secluded cabin in the woods, and do all of it alone or with friends! Starbound lets you live out your own story of space exploration, discovery and adventure. Settle down and farm the land, hop from planet to planet claiming resources, or make regular visits to populated settlements, taking on jobs and earning a living and much much more! Update Info : Many gamers around the world have been constantly smacking that F5 button as today the beta is due to be released. A beta of a game that has a big brother to look up to and that was Terraria, a game that was so popular it sold many many copies, it was worldly popular. Think of it as Minecraft in a 2D way, the ability to do what you wanted and create what you want, either on your own or with your friends. But enough about that, when is it due? Beta keys will be released at 10 am PST, which means Europeans have to wait until 6-8pm. But while we wait, check out the latest beta trailer! Release : TBA (Beta today) Systems : PC, Mac, Linux
Gamers rejoice as Starbound, from the developers of Terraria, the hit
Action, Adventure, Rpg game which sold over 50,000 copies is now
available for pre-order. Starbound is not a sequel but based on the same type of Terraria principal. In Terraria you created your own story,
spoke to friends, made rooms,
built huge forts, dug deep into the earth, wacked your pickaxe at blocks
for resources, created better and better items while killing evil
bosses and much more. In Starbound it is very much a new game, new ideas
but still that Terraria feel is there. With a space like feel, new
worlds to visit and strange new creatures, plus much more, I'm sure this
game will be a massive hit, so as from the ending of this post I'm
going to pre-order!
As I said before in one of my other posts I never played Minecraft but I was a huge Terraria fan, it was so easy to play, for me at least and I had many hours of fun with friends online. Terraria was created by a guy called Andrew "Redigit" Spinks and The game featured exploration, crafting, construction, and combat with a variety of creatures in a randomly generated 2-D world. 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 . However, Starbound is not a sequel but based on the same type of principal and is developed by the same person.

Here's what the developer has to say about Starbound from the developer of Terraria.
