Branching Out: Terraria Port Sync Pack Made Available

What do we want?

Terraria on Android! After throwing our money at our monitor for a quite a long time, fantasy becomes reality. Portable Terraria . After some skepticism about the legal issues when we first announcedthat it was in the process of being developed by Brad Gearon, a solo developer, we can confirm that the game will be arriving at the Google Play Store, with the name Branches , very soon.

For those who are still oblivious to what Terraria is, it’s a side-scrolling version of Minecraft , where you’re placed in a sandbox-like world. You can have the ability to make tools, dig and break almost everything, build towers and homes, and attack NPCs. Basically, it’s a different perspective of Minecraft, with a few additions to set the differences .

The cost of the game is being decided, but Brad says, “I’m thinking something between $4.99 and $6.99. All things considered I’ve spent an immense amount of time putting this together, and with the new features and overall future I have planned – I feel that is reasonable. Also note the more I charge the more time I can dedicate to this game’s future. Since I started this project it has been the one and only thing I’ve done outside of a minor amount of family time”.

While multiplayer isn’t going to be available upon the first release, it should be added through an update later, as it’s still buggy.
