In a shocking turn of events, the beloved Terraria mod known as Calamity is shutting down following allegations of sexual misconduct against its lead developer, Ozzatron. The mod team has reportedly turned down an offer from popular streamer xQc to save the project due to repeated issues with multiple leaders and a tainted reputation. The controversy stems from leaked screenshots showing Ozzatron allegedly participating in NSFW conversations with members claiming to be minors, as well as accusations of manipulation and difficult work conditions. Additionally, previous leader Fabsol was accused of grooming minors in 2022. The team claims that Ozzatron has gone AWOL and is withholding Patreon funds, causing some members to request their assets be removed from the project. The sheer amount of work needed for such changes has led to a total shutdown of Calamity development. The mod team expressed feeling betrayed and tired of the project's troubled past in an official Discord statement, with many choosing to leave and move on to other projects. Famous streamer xQc offered to buy the Terraria mod and hire the development team himself, but the offer has been rejected by the Calamity team due to behind-the-scenes issues and requests for work to be removed from the project.
