What were the biggest roadblocks you encountered over the course of programming terraria? (For the programmers)
What were the trickiest enemies/objects to design, personally (For the artists)
And to both, what were your favourite features/designs that you implemented (Favourite mechanic, favourite design)
Y'all are awesome, so cheers if you answer!

What was it like finally creating bosses for the Hallow, and how did you come up with the ideas for them? The Empress of Light in particular is very unique and unlike anything else seen in the game, so I'm curious about the thought process behind her addition. On a similar note, I'd like to ask the artists about the designs/aesthetics of both of those bosses, and the unique items and equipment that they drop.

As a person who's dipping their toes in the game dev scene, I'd love to know more about your journey in game development.
- What was your deciding moment that made you choose game dev?
- What does a typical workday consist of?
- What software (artists) and IDE (programmers) do you typically use?
- Dark mode or Light mode?
- What, in your opinion, is the leading factor that lead to Terraria's huge success?
- Have you ever had an item or mechanic that you wanted to implement in the game, but couldn't? And why?

Ooh ooh, mine would be:
1) How do you feel ending a game that's been out for 10 years and one that has sold over 30 million copies?
2) And what's next?

Your game is very good, so much so that I can't put up with some of its problems. I'm talking about problems with multiplayer. It is very easy to cheat on servers, create various objects that cause inconvenience to other players ' clients. Servers can maintain interest in the game and even increase it. And as a minigame server developer, I was convinced of that. So I really need a good multiplayer.
My question: Will you improve the multiplayer game?

What's something you wish you added but couldn't because of, say, program limitations or disapproval from the rest of the team ?
On the other side, what's something you added into the game you wish you hadn't ?
What was the hardest thing you had to draw or program for the game ?
What are your favourite mods ?
As a team, how did you deal with the whole... distance working situation ?
Are you having a great day ?

I have several questions:
1. What was the coolest concept that didn't make into the game?
2. Why there are no stronger spears than North Pole?
3. Is there a particular reason why there is no pre-hardmode flamethrower?
4. Why the dev team choosed XNA Framework for Terraria?
5. What type of crossovers were considered but in the end were scrapped?
6. What was the most time consuming art sprite besides Moon Lord's?
7. Do Terraria have some easter eggs that were still not discovered?
8. Do You guys at some point considered making armor reforges?

I have 2 questions, 1 for the programmers and 1 for the artists:
Programmers:
How did programming go with making the boss’ new expert mode A.I? Was it fun to program having to tweak some of the boss’ mechanics? Did you guys think about making new A.I for master mode, but got scrapped? If you guys would be able to change the A.I of one boss, what would it be? HOW DID YOU MAKE THE EMPRESS OF LIGHT’S DAYTIME FIGHT SO DIFFICULT? (I have nightmares over the many hours of attempts ;-; (this is a cry for help XD)
Artists:
Was it difficult to make the Zenith’s art style (when you use the sword)? It looks like there’s a lot going on when you swing it. Was it you guys’ idea to make the crafting tree visible for the Zenith when you swing it? We’re there also other ideas for how the Zenith would actually look like?
I hope you guys answer the questions.
Loving Terraria like always, keep up the good work!
