    You know what would actually make great bosses? People. Well geared people that resemble fights like Megaman. I mean of course they are AI, but im just sayin. . . You go into a dungeon that has a future base tile set, and at the end the boss is a robot that has an inviso belt, a pistol and a beam sword, and he does things youd expect a person to do, like jump over your head, cloak, and try to flank you. When you beat him, you access the console 'treasure' and BAM! you find the inviso belt specs. Cool boss huh yo?

    And of course Gunther should be a boss. When you defeat him, you get to keep your soul. Thats all the reward you need for surviving or beating Gunther.

    this post gave me an idea there should be a extremely rare dungeon full of crazy traps and very hard enemies and if you manage to get to the end you have to fight the devs one by one if you beat them all you get some awesome loot and tiys outfit which should give stupid amounts of defense and other buffs

    Totes. Thats actually a really damn cool idea. Each of the devs has their favorite avatar represented as a mini boss. Or like some sort of meta event that recurs, where a 'bounty hunter' comes after you and its literally one of the devs avatars in their favorite gear. Woot. And Gunther.

    (before 1.2) Terraria gave me 886+ hours of fun.... hopefully a good 400+ after 1.2
    This game is going to give me 9001+ hours of fun. Guaranteed.


    EDIT:
    Insomnia Game Festival I guess.

    Well... That's not entirely true. All these bug fixes are coming because they want something for insomnia. If there was no insomnia, they would just likely be adding all sorts of things like they have been. The reason there is no beta is feature creep. They keep adding things to the list of things to do before release. And since they want all of these things in the game for beta, we get no beta likely until December. It's also the same reason Tiy's comment about how "if the build for youtubers is done and the beta are done together then they will be released together". That's all well and good, but what you work on is what gets done. This insomnia build being an example. If you stomp out all the bugs, will we get the beta? I would imagine not, because there are things that need to be added that are not being worked on since this is your aim. If youtuber copy is the next stop, that will finish before beta since the code fairy wont be making a visit to finish off everything else at the same time.
