The author Terrarie unexpectedly canceled the release of the game at Stadion -apkrig
Although the developers at Re-Logic never officially announced that they would release Terraria on the Google Stadium streaming platform, they had canceled it in advance. The information comes after the rating of the mentioned game for Stadia escaped and its source is the founder of the studio and one of the authors of the game, Andrew Spinks. He warned on Twitter a few hours ago that Google had denied him access to his account and any related applications, including the official Terrarie channel on YouTube, without explanation or deliberate violation. This angered Spinks so much that he refused any cooperation for which he said he had burned all the bridges. He allegedly waited three weeks before Google could contact him with an explanation, or how to restore the account, until he ran out of patience.
@Google my account has now been disabled for over 3 weeks. I still have no idea why, and after using every resource I have to get this resolved you have done nothing but given me the runaround.

“My account has been suspended for more than 3 weeks. I still don’t know why, and after exhausting all options to rectify the situation, I was offered only a general procedure, “Spinks sums up on social networks. He returns to the beginning of the whole incident from the end of January, when the YouTube channel was first blocked, with which the official Terrarie account turned to support the video portal. The developers explained at the time that they had not uploaded a new video to the RelogicGames channel for many months, but still received an email about the violation, and the result was that it was impossible to add new content and manipulate the channel in any other way. Therefore, the YouTube account is currently accessible, including all uploaded videos, but the channel icon indicates a problem, and developers have later repeatedly confirmed that none of the usual features are available.
According to Andrew Spinks, along with the removal of access to the channel, his account in Gmail, Google Drive and Google Play was blocked, which is a huge problem for developers, directly affecting his business. “I didn’t do anything to break the rules of the services, so I have no choice but to burn the bridges behind me,” Spinks responds to a possible release of Terraria for Google Stadium. “Terraria for the Stadium is canceled. My company will not support any of your platforms in the future, “says Spinks for sure, if someone did not interpret his words specifically enough. He also adds that he will no longer be associated in any way with a corporation that treats its customers and partners in this way and lists what it has lost in this allegedly unexplained step.
My phone has lost access to thousands of dollars of apps on @GooglePlay. I had just bought LOTR 4K and can’t finish it. My @googledrive data is completely gone. I can’t access my @YouTube channel. The worst of all is losing access to my @gmail address of over 15 years.

Gone is the data from Google Drive, which is directly linked to the support and development of Terraria. By blocking access to Google Play, Spinks said he lost software worth several thousand dollars, including the cracked Lord of the Rings in 4K (!). But the worst is, according to the developer, the deletion of the e-mail box, which contains the history of the past 15 years of use together with the contact directory, and this loss is critical for Spinks. We are therefore not surprised by his attitude and unwillingness to continue cooperating with Google, although the question is whether the whole incident will simply not be resolved after the media coverage. Many people in the comments also ask Spinks if Google has contacted and dealt with the company in any other way than by swearing on Twitter, but the designer does not respond to this and still stands by his morning statements this morning.
