Terraria keeps freezing into Henry Stickmin choices: pick the right gadget, or get a real FAIL.
Terraria keeps turning into a Henry Stickmin moment. Open a chest, hit the caverns, survive a Blood Moon, or nearly die, and time freezes as Henry's choice wheel pops up with The Henry Stickmin Collection's own gadget icons: Teleporter, Falcon Punch, Rocket Jump, Tank, Retro Glove and 50 more.
Pick right and Terraria pays off with loot, buffs, heals, launches and escapes. Pick wrong and you get the real Henry Stickmin FAIL screen with that gadget's own FAIL line and sting, and then Terraria makes you live with it.
How Henry Stickmin gets in: nothing from either game is in the download. The first time you play, Stickmin Fate finds your Steam copy of The Henry Stickmin Collection, draws its icons and FAIL screens and copies its sounds into a local cache, which takes a few seconds. Terraria's own files are never changed. Without the Collection installed, it tells you in chat and stays out of the way.
