I'm sure that was intentional, to show that it was running on MacOS. If the screenshot was full-screen, then that would not have been clear.

Thanks for clearing that up for me, I got worried

Would either of those ports happen to be using the FNA Framework, which is a well maintained fork of the original MonoGame? It no longer uses the buggy OpenTK framework, and just uses SDL 2 pretty much everywhere. With that, it should definitely be possible to build once for all platforms, once a working XNA port has been ported over to FNA. Of course, that does not include any per-port specialization that may be necessary, such as save locations, or even UI additions.
At least it sure beats the old MonoGame, which had a separate source tree and thus separate frameworks for every platform.

So this will work at schools which almost always use Macs! Huzzah!

Sadly, my school doesn't use Macs. We have a few giant Mac Screens, but can't use them. I wish we did, that way I don't get confused using their mouse.

Ah, blocky worlds and simple trees, makes me feel quite nostalgic.

If I buy terraria during the sale, will I still be able to re-download it through my Mac?

Once 1.3, the update that includes mac and linux (thats how I remember it, may've changed, I'll check the wiki in a min) then you should be able to download terraria for mac, assuming you've bought terraria.
That said, 1.3 isn't out yet nor is there a release date set.

Any news on how this is going? Badly? Wonderfully? Slowly? Rapidly? Hungry for some news on either console or Mac development. Eager for new mechanics/features.

So it's official that Mac and Linux will be getting Terraria?Nothing has changed in regards to plans here - availability around the time of 1.3.
We will update with more specifics at a later date.

It's been for a while now. We should be getting the equivalent of PC, and that means we'll (most likely) have 1.3 when the Mac/Linux version is released. Unless something goes wrong and we get stuck with 1.2.4.1.So it's official that Mac and Linux will be getting Terraria?

Most likely on Steam, as the Windows version is there.
