Oh, and it doesn't have stupid weird lag in solo play that's been reported YEARS ago that plague some players and that's still not fixed. Starbound focuses in building and exploration. ( I also feel that progression in Starbound kinda feel hollow ) Otherwise, it shares Terraria’s 2D, gently pixelated aesthetic and the focus on building a base on procedurally generated world. We’re aiming to create a universe that’s really rich with lore, on top of just making a good sandbox game.To me Terraria is far superior because it has better action, better inventory system ( seriously, the storage system of Starbound is beyond primitive ), better character customisation though accessories & weaponry, much better mining system, much better UI ( Why is there no quick buff/heal/mining/torch key !? ), IMO a better tool bar ( Why can't i remove the paint/wiring ? ), more mobility option ( we're flying a spaceship but we can't afford a graplling hook / jetpack ? ) and a much better progression.

In a recent interview with Gameranx, Caroll discussed her team’s part in this burgeoning block-based genre. Also, Starbound is more chill than Terraria, you can fish, you can plant and water your crops, you can cook, you can have farm animals, you can hunt for food and skins, make your own village and spawn NPC in them that also give you quest and gifts, etc. In Starbound, combat was designed with strategy in mind. You, as the player, are given the ability to visit any world that you choose. Starbound is somehow eight years old, but with its gentle nature, pixelly graphics, and procedural exploration, it hasn’t aged too badly.
