Terraria Map Sizes

Terraria is a great new game available on steam for only $10!  It’s a 2D platformer with sprite based graphics and a sandbox world similar to minecraft.  You mine various minerals and resources and combine them to build new items which in turn let you do more exploring.  During the night time, if you’re not in a secure shelter, you may be set upon by zombies, snakes, giant worms, and demonic eyeballs.

One of the neat things about Terraria is the sheer scope in the size of the world maps.  Everything on the map can be modified and customized as you play.  You can dig and mine the ground and build building and castles and much more.

In Terraria, there are 3 map sizes, and to give you an idea of the difference in size between Small, Medium, and Large, here are 3 fresh maps I just generated. I warn you though, the image filesizes are pretty big!

World of Warcraft Power Leveling :)

Comments are off for this post

I’ve been playing World of Warcraft on and off for the past 5 years.  I’ll get into it for a couple weeks, and then take a break for a few months, then start playing it again for a few weeks, and then take a break again.

Because I don’t play constantly, or very regularly, I never really had the time to really learn a lot of the in-depth things about the game, and I found trying to figure stuff out alone was kind of boring, especially in the level 20-40 range where you have to do a lot of grinding.

Well, a while back I bought the Zygor Guide. It’s a simple plugin for WoW that acts as a quest helper, telling you which quests to take, where to go to complete the quests, and it allows you to power level your character quite quickly.  It’s better than the other quest helpers because it specifically tells you to do things in a certain order to optimize your time.  It’ll have you pick up 3-5 quests in one area, go around and do all of them, then turn them all in at once, rather than doing them one by one and running back and forth all the time.

If you’re like me and enjoy playing WoW, but don’t have the time to devote your entire life to it, the Zygor guide is the best way to Power Level your character quickly, efficiently, and it’s fun.

Zygor Guide has allowed me to rapidly level my Blood Elf Shadow Priest, and my Tauren Death Knight in minimal play time.  I’m not level 80 yet, but I soon will be :)
