Its creator, Andrew Spinks, explains that the enormous success of the title prevents him from abandoning the project permanently, since there is still demand.

    I “beat” the game in 2012, but it was an ungodly number of hours. Is it worth playing through again? New stuff? New mechanics? A small world might go faster?

      It’s absolutely worth playing again, tons of new content and quality of life improvements. Progression should be faster in a small world, but personally I feel like medium is ideal for a single player world.

        Just cleared the game using few small worlds, they work really well for returning players looking to see the new stuff. Trying out one of the secret seeds like the constant could also spice up the experience.

      2012… that would have probably been around 1.1! There’s a LOT more to the game since then, though admittedly there’s also a lot that makes the game go faster too. It’s still a fairly decent time investment, but honestly it’s well worth it. (As an experienced player, a playthrough for me still takes about 50-70 hours)

      Keep the Wiki handy, though.

      I’d personally get Tmod and install Calamity Mod with a few other choice recommendations.

      It’s still such a great game with great modders.
