Official Re-Logic Game Developers Conference Blog

[Loki]

Hello there everyone!

As we mentioned in our announcement for Terraria: Otherworld, members of the Re-Logic and Engine Software teams will be in attendance at this week's Game Developers Conference. We will be spending the bulk of our time camped out in our home away from home (Booth #2230) showcasing Terraria: Otherworld and answering questions from the media and anyone else that stops by. Hopefully, we will be able to squeeze in some "fun" as well.

That said, we got to thinking that vicariously sharing our experiences in a "stream of consciousness" style blog through the week might be fun and allow our larger community a glimpse into what goes on this week - and so this thread was born.

Whenever we are able (and remember), we will share happenings from the trip here. That could be random insanity, news, spoilers, or really anything. We have no "plan" for this blog thread other than to share the experience with all of you.

This thread will stay locked and reserved for blog entries (make sure to follow this thread so you get alerts when a new entry is made!) - but you can discuss what you read from us and other media HERE.

So, stay tuned throughout the week - you never know what could happen (because we sure don't ).

Cheers!
The Re-Logic & Engine Software Team

March 1: Evening

To get things rolling, we thought we would share a sneak peek at some of the banners we have for our booth this week.

Apologies for the iffy lighting, but we hope you enjoy an advance viewing of our banners - featuring a handful of in-game scenes from the pre-alpha!

We will have more for you - from news to fun stuff and whatever strikes us as cool to share - throughout the week, so stay tuned....

March 3, Morning/Afternoon

Greetings from San Francisco! The team is busily working away on preparations for tomorrow's opening of the GDC Expo. Booth #2230 is coming together nicely!

The banners made it! ​

Redigit & his mad skills made it!​

The booth is already being infected by the Corruption!!!​

More to come!!!!

Well folks, I am busy rendering the GDC trailer with various songs... After just 3 times we decided that it would drive us nuts with just the one song...

Also our shiny couch just arrived...

 

[MrRudi]

Definitely a noteworthy event. Stopped for some drinks after setting up our booth and checking the games at the indie megabooth, and here we end up sitting 5 feet away from the one and only Mr. Spike Lee

Good morning from San Francisco!!!

GDC Expo goes live in 15m - so we wanted to give you a few pre-show booth shots to start the day.

Our resident Demo Man - concentrating hard on fighting the forces of evil...​

We will have more from the floor of GDC as the day - and week - progresses!

Well, day one done. Surprise interview right away with Japanese giant Famitsu. Response overall on the game have been very very positive. Very tired now... Also pleased to report @Nike Leon has joined the booth staff today.

It was quite the first day at GDC for the team! We thought we would take some time out from our day to send along a quick 1.3 greeting to you all.

Oh, and we will just leave you with one other little tidbit...

Our goal is to have Terraria 1.3 ready for release in June 2015​

Day two - booth is hopping once again! After last night's big 1.3 date reveal, we figured we would give you something a bit on the "lighter side" this morning:

 

[MrRudi]

Things still going well over here, with some interesting visitors.

Legendary video game composer Chris Hülsbeck love this guy.

Spontaneous Yo-off in the Re-Logic booth - @Redigit & Clifton B throwing down. Shout out to One Drop for making it happen!

 

[Loki]

Nearing the end of the Expo, the guys from Hipster Whale (of Crossy Road fame) stopped by to check out the latest on Terraria. Who knew they were fans? Lots of mutual appreciation going on in this picture.

@Loki has challenged @demilogic to a dj off. Things just got real.

GDC has come to an end, what a crazy ride!
