terraria-simply-added-a-brand-new-mode-that-actually-turns-the-world-the-wrong-way-up

Terraria was, as soon as upon a time, a game about digging down: you began as a surface-dwelling weakling and mined your approach to the planet’s molten core, hauling the assets again as much as construct cooler and extra elaborate instruments and constructions. That is nonetheless in Terraria, although after a decade of updates it is a lot extra, with quests and elaborate boss fights and expansive constructing instruments and distinctive “world seeds” that change how the world is randomly generated. At present’s Labor of Love update makes an enormous variety of additions, however the coolest might be the Do not Dig Up world seed, which flips the game topsy turvy.

Here is the outline straight from the patch notes:

“An thought first mentioned in the course of the launch of Journey’s Finish, Do not Dig Up turns the world of Terraria the wrong way up—actually! The participant will start their journey within the depths of the underworld, full with all new flora to assist present early assets.

“Because the participant ascends into ‘The Up’, nonetheless, the threats will enlarge exponentially till they attain the Floor—a very horrifying and inhospitable place that can check the mettle of even probably the most seasoned Terrarian. Rethink all the pieces , however Do not Dig Up except you are ready for what comes subsequent!

The identify is literal right here. The floor now seems to be like hell, with a lava-filled backdrop similar to the depths of Terraria would usually have. The enemies aren’t late-game monsters, although: they’re simply good little slimes. Good little flaming slimes. You may solely dig a brief method down earlier than you hit bedrock, which implies the one approach to progress is to go up. And the patch notes positive do not make it sound pleasant up there.

Creating an upside-down world is straightforward: simply begin a brand new world and kind “Do not Dig Up” in because the seed. You will realize it labored fairly rapidly.
