He may not carry the same industry stature as Minecraft’s Notch, but Terraria’s Redigit also created a sandbox open-world building game that left its mark on the world of indie development.
Sadly, it looks as though he will be moving on, according to a post he left on the official Terraria forums.
“After a lot of internal debate, we have decided that it is time to move on. My wife and I are due to have another boy soon, and I want to spend some time getting to know him. I also want to spend the time recharging and bettering myself as both a programmer and game designer. I have learned a lot from working on Terraria and plan on using what I’ve learned, building upon it, and moving forward with another, even better project. However, we are still planning at least one more bug fix for Terraria.”
From the sounds of things, the upcoming patch will be the game’s last, which is kind of sad because it still feels like so much could be done with Terraria in terms of new content.
