wait.....what do you mean by......stole?????

hybrid wedge
#

Dance, blowing kisses, and thinking used to be standard emotes

radiant drum
#

Winter had 6 emotes too iirc

arctic pecan
#

😱

hybrid wedge
radiant drum
#

But only 1 or 2 new?

pallid badger
#

Hang about. They’d have to test winter in beta again surely? The video I watched today some of the levels were remarkably different to their current set up.

arctic pecan
#

not the kiss and thinking emotes!!

radiant drum
#

Yes, winter is definitely going through some changes

hybrid wedge
#

I assume they will because the way the seasons are done is pretty different now from the original winter

radiant drum
#

I’m excited to see!

arctic pecan
#

The regular spirits got robbed

#

Justice for Regular Spirits! ( especially for Whale Call Spirit! )

radiant drum
#

The spirits are fine. We got robbed!

#

repeats suggestion to put them back in the normal emotes

hybrid wedge
#

I miss them so much BibleThump

torn gust
#

winter 2: electric boogaloo

pallid badger
#

So people who did winter in the soft launch, do they still have those emotes?

hybrid wedge
#

Yep

torn gust
#

did winter have an official name like gratitude and lightseekers have?

#

or was it just called winter season?

hybrid wedge
#

Just winter

arctic pecan
#

I know Devs has alot of good Winter Emotes

#

*Devs as in the player

torn gust
#

I wonder if theyll rename it!

arctic pecan
#

Not the actual developers

hybrid wedge
#

I’m sure the other devs have a lot of good winter emotes too tho ^^

arctic pecan
#

Mhmm true

hybrid wedge
#

Other similarities: they all have a cape that has a sort of flower petal shape going on

arctic pecan
#

Oh truuuue!

pallid badger
#

So.... if beta testing of light seekers finishes in 15 days... how long until the next season starts testing do you suppose?

arctic pecan
#

they sure love their flowers huh

#

looks back at the game they made

#

about flowers

radiant drum
#

Probably around when lightseekers ends in live

hybrid wedge
pallid badger
#

I’d love more flowers in this game. A giant flower garden as a level. (Flowers being giant).

arctic pecan
#

yoooo

#

i'll love to see more giant flowers!

torn gust
#

YES

arctic pecan
#

even standing on top of them

#

would be amazing!

#

well more like lying down on the big flowers for me

torn gust
#

i want a level with big plants and teeny tiny skykids in comparison

proven trout
#

giant flower sublevel šŸ˜

torn gust
#

theyre normal height but the plants are just huge

arctic pecan
#

yaaaaass!

pallid badger
#

Yeah, using them as stepping stones. Petal to petal. We need some orchids in there. And big lilies

arctic pecan
#

new potential Forest ideas!

torn gust
#

i was kinda doin that in the one clover/lilypad piece i did but flowers would be so pretty ;__;

hybrid wedge
#

(ButpleasenorainsPray)

torn gust
#

imagine walking through a flowerfield but all the flowers are above you with the light shining through...

proven trout
#

the flowers will die!

torn gust
#

the light gets colored by the petals

radiant drum
#

awaits pines’ new concept art piece šŸ‘€

torn gust
#

IM READY

arctic pecan
#

Pines' arts are

#

delicious

#

pfpfppffp

torn gust
#

i just show up at TGC's door with big ol puppy dog eyes

proven trout
#

italian kiss emote

torn gust
#

a basket of cookies

proven trout
#

fantastic

torn gust
#

and a bribe

arctic pecan
#

jk jk theyre _very stunning _

oblique stump
#

You know what

#

It'd be great if crabs could swim or something

arctic pecan
#

I think crabs kinda do swim

#

especially with that one crab in the Forest Temple

#

( well not really but still )

oblique stump
#

That water is pretty shallow though

pallid badger
#

It’d be better if they could be rounded up and carried away somewhere they can exist happily without skykids stomping through their territories.

arctic pecan
#

pffffft truuuu

#

like Crabs gonna need their peace from these meddling sky kids!

pallid badger
#

Flower level... there should be a lovely big toad somewhere. Just sitting somewhere. No danger, just something lovely to see and say hi to as you’re passing through

arctic pecan
#

maybe

#

_you can _

#

_p e t _

torn gust
#

light frogs šŸ˜

arctic pecan
#

the frog

#

yaasss Light Frogs!!

pallid badger
#

Yup.

torn gust
#

light frogs who hop throughout the level leading you to the Big Toad

pallid badger
#

Yes!!! Oh I love that idea!

arctic pecan
#

Helpful ones like the Mantas!

pallid badger
#

And fireflies. I have never seen a firefly irl.

arctic pecan
#

me too actually

edgy canopy
#

FIREFLIES WOULD BE AWESOME

arctic pecan
#

oh eyaeh they are!

#

_They're glowing lightbulbs _

pallid badger
#

I just downloaded procreate yesterday. Need to work out how to use it because I have ideas!! I’m a pencil and paper sort of person. I don’t usually even use colour but ... ideas šŸ˜

arctic pecan
#

yaaaasss work on those ideas Boon!

#

šŸ‘

torn gust
#

boon i hope one day youre able to see fireflies, theyre magical 😭

arctic pecan
#

TAT omg they are

#

actually saw the locals in Thailand advertising for the fireflies

#

and yes, me and my fam actually went to the boat that leads you to the side of the forest with fireflies

#

abouuuut that tho....

#

none of us or the visitors get a chance to see the fireflies in person so....thats sucks

#

ok ok but
Imagine
small mice with big ears

#

that could be used for flying

proven trout
#

fireflies in game would be really cool, ive never seen them either. i pretend the little light specks you see in levels sometimes are like fireflies šŸ˜„ kind of reminds me of how on the stream today someone said they'd never experienced rain.

atomic trail
#

How did TGC talk about whether winter events will come back
in today's live?

proven trout
#

they essentially said that they want to keep the integrity of having seasons be limited time, one time only, and if/when winter comes back it won't be the exact same to keep that integrity

atomic trail
#

Thank you, @proven trout !

cosmic star
#

Cool ideas.... I’m looking at fireflies in my backyard irl right now šŸ§ššŸæā€ā™‚ļøšŸ˜Š

dire rover
#

I heard they were running low on pants so winter was canceled

#

After all there were no pants this season, we can’t expect them to have any for next season

#

To shift the talk back to beta

#

I really wish there would be an update that just said ā€œadded secret doors to wallsā€

empty inlet
#

they sent all the pants to the space station to protect astronauts

spark lance
#

Gotta get new pants sizes for those resize potions!

onyx plaza
#

Not entirely sure if this is the right place to share this, but today I was talking to my friends who are all anticipating the android release and it became a discussion where it led to the possibility of Sky becoming available for other platforms and whether or not TGC would be able to transfer saved data to those.

I remember I used to play BDO (Black Desert) before they used Steam and I couldn't ever recover my existing account - only for multiple admins telling me after submitting numerous tickets that I would have to re-buy the game through Steam. (Which tore me to pieces cause I spent so many hours on it rip)

vapid briar
#

We plan to bring Sky to additional platforms and will do our best to ensure cross-play/cross-save amongst them all highfive
Hopefully that brings you a bit of peace of mind teamwork

empty inlet
#

So TGC Account, when🤨

#

Google Account can also be used on different platforms tho

onyx plaza
#

YASSS THANK YOU my heart

spark lance
#

@empty inlet they will let the community know ... TGC is working so hard on iOS and Android, let’s not press for timelines of other platforms and trust they will do their very best to introduce them when ready.

@livid vine I was just in there and the lights were off but the TV was on

Check it out if you haven’t seen that b4

livid vine
#

i dont got beta cape :(

woeful lodge
#

I can take you if you dm me a friend code

livid vine
#

ight

empty inlet
#

Sorry for my words, that’s more like a guess that whether tgc will eventually introduce their That Game Account for players to link their game data

livid vine
#

:00

ancient onyx
#

I do honestly think the game would be better imo on pc. But that’s just bc I like typing on one better

tardy apex
#

So how do you get involved with beta?

crystal fractal
#

!iosbeta

gilded parrotBOT
#

The beta is full at the moment. To join future beta invite waves, watch for announcements in #beta-announcements!

spark lance
tardy apex
#

Ok!

fossil field
#

Hello

#

May I ask how do I join IOS beta.

empty inlet
#

The beta is full at the moment. To join future beta invite waves, watch for announcements in #beta-announcements!

edgy plover
#

How do I get the beta cape?

empty inlet
#

!betareward

gilded parrotBOT
#

The Beta reward was a one-time thing for the testing period prior to the iOS global launch. A future reward is not planned.

empty inlet
#

beta reward means beta cape here

edgy plover
#

I’ve been playing the beta and haven’t gotten a cape from it?

empty inlet
#

Have you been playing beta before iOS global launch?

edgy plover
#

I’ve been playing since they sent out the latest link

#

When they first started the light seeker season

empty inlet
#

Then you probably can't get it

brazen flicker
#

The beta cape was a gift from tgc to the testers who helped out prior to the global launch. There is, however, a founders cape that looks similar and is available. You can find the founders cape by opening the shop menu while you’re in the office @edgy plover

edgy plover
#

I can’t get to the office without a beta cape

empty inlet
#

there're various bugs that can let you in without a cape

#

or you can ask someone with a cape bring you in

brazen flicker
edgy plover
#

Thank you both!

brazen flicker
#

The founders cape will also let you access the office area on your own, so once you get it you can go back whenever you want! Like other shop items, the founders pack is free in beta. In live, it’s around $30usd

#

Yw!

torn scarab
#

Hello?

arctic pecan
#

hello!

#

hmmm seem like everyone at Beta busy atm

#

how’s everything going for you?

torn scarab
#

Fine

#

But small loneliness

fickle token
#

feeling disabled

hollow compass
#

disabled how?

fickle token
#

I can't play beta normally and my final exam is next Monday so I have to study

crystal fractal
#

OMG i just realised ||the girl in the room in the office wasn’t a real person that’s so creepy!!||

hollow compass
#

@crystal fractal how do you mean ||not real||?

crystal fractal
#

@hollow compass ||shes a machine||

orchid nexus
#

NPC

hollow compass
#

I have to go check

#

@crystal fractal oh, you mean ||the one with the shop?||

torn scarab
#

I got teal cape from that

crystal fractal
#

@torn scarab that’s not the teal cape, it’s the founder’s cape

torn scarab
#

Oh

#

Beta cape

crystal fractal
#

@hollow compass ||she has a shop???||

#

idk i thought she was ||real... then she started taking and it was so creepy||

torn scarab
#

||It's just direction|| @hollow compass

green cave
#

||npcs in games really be like that||

#

||i like them, they’re a nice npc||

torn scarab
#

|| When I met that npc, I was scared ||

white root
#

Some people are totally clueless on how to get the cape. I spent a lot of candles just to unlock chat to tell them they need to click the store. šŸ˜‚

hollow compass
#

@torn scarab direction?

green cave
#

||i liived for that encounter, I hope we get more npcs||

torn scarab
#

Like where shop is located

hollow compass
#

@white root that's very nice of you!

#

@torn scarab I don't think I understand

torn scarab
#

Just forget about it

hollow compass
#

um, ok?

green cave
#

The normal shop while you’re in ||the office||

torn scarab
#

Are android beta and ios beta cross platform right?

crystal fractal
#

||nothing wrong with her||, i was just surprised

white root
#

@torn scarab yes. They are crossed.

torn scarab
#

So that means I can talk here

hollow compass
#

yes?

green cave
#

||Yeah, though has the npcs gender been confirmed?||

#

||Im actually curious||

hollow compass
#

I kidn of think of the Sky kids as any and no gender

green cave
#

Yeah, but pronoun are chosen things so

torn scarab
#

Determine?

hollow compass
#

'they' works fine?

green cave
#

I just kinda consider all the elders without any pronoun aside from they/them but i mean, they have confirmed pronoun i think

#

so i was curious if ||the npc|| had confirmed pronoun

orchid nexus
#

"it"

hollow compass
#

eeek

green cave
#

Huh

hollow compass
#

in Finnish there is only one 3rd person singular pronoun, which is quite handy

green cave
#

I dont even know anymore for norwegian, i just default to they

hollow compass
#

but in spoken Finnish the word for "it" is often used instead - lol

#

most indo-European languages have gendered 3rd pronouns as well as gendered nouns

#

but to get back to the game, I don't personally think any of the Sky kids have a gender, but I know some people prefer some hairstyles over others and refer to them as female or male

orchid nexus
#

language has been in beta testing for soooo long, but it's still full of bugs. it'll probably never go live.

hollow compass
#

so going by that the NPC would be female

#

I can confirm that the extra seasonal candles are not in beta Wasteland

green cave
#

Eh

#

Hair isnt gendered

#

and shouldnt be viewed as that

#

But hey

spark lance
#

Express yourself freely with the cosmetics. Be whoever you want to be BlueHeart

arctic pecan
#

No boundaries so go crazy!

hollow compass
#

yeah, that's what I was saying

#

I don't assume someone is female because they are wearing a supposedly female hair

#

fwiw, I never thought of Forest Elder as a woman until someone called them "Auntie Forest"

arctic pecan
#

one of my friends ( who btw doesn’t play Sky ) thought Forest Elder is a male so each to their own headcannons

fickle token
#

looks like anime logic which looks female but actually male

hushed jackal
#

Why do we have to mix gender politics with the game. Heck, if you feel fine with what you are wearing, forget what you think or others think you are. I call them kids. Cuz thats basically what they are.

#

If i want to be an attack humvee, ill be an attack humvee

arctic pecan
#

ok let’s move on with something else!

#

actually, did anyone here
No matter IOS or Android, manage to get to any OOBs?

#

šŸ¤” just curious

#

especially the Sunny Forest

#

cos i know that one got blocked off

lusty light
#

Yes šŸ‘€

toxic falcon
#

whats the office event today?

hollow compass
#

I've been to plenty oob areas in beta

empty inlet
#

one hand mode completely broken in live?

halcyon nest
#

Hello

spark lance
#

I use one-hand mode exclusively, works great in live and beta

#

Hi @halcyon nest sHeyy

halcyon nest
#

Hey because I joined the sky beta membership dose that mean I get a blue cape in game

arctic pecan
#

If you look for it, yes

halcyon nest
#

What do you mean look for it🤨

empty inlet
#

ok it works for me again

#

there're two blue capes

#

one you won't be able to get

#

another one is available to purchase

arctic pecan
#

the other one you can but you need to look for || the hidden area with the blue cape ||

halcyon nest
#

Um that last part is blacked out

empty inlet
#

More generally speaking, there're 4 blue capes in the game with three different color

arctic pecan
#

just press on the black part

#

and you’ll see why

empty inlet
#

in case you're not looking for that specific blue cape

halcyon nest
#

Ok I see

#

Thx

#

Um I thought I knew the hidden area but no, are you able to tell me where that is

keen turtle
#

You need someone that had a blue cape to bring you there.

#

If you want send me a QR code and I could bring you there @halcyon nest

halcyon nest
#

Ok thx

#

Is it likely that it will take a long time to approve the beta version?

spark lance
#

It can take a few days excluding weekends.

modern lily
#

I see. alright!

Hi, I'm wondering how do I get accepted into beta?

!iosbeta

The beta is full at the moment. To join future beta invite waves, watch for announcements in #beta-announcements!

spark lance
#

You can still sign up for the Android beta, so check out those channels

fresh quiver
#

Why is there a hidden tiny room in prairie cave that you can get stuck in?? Lol

spark lance
#

There are some spaces that are too small ... if you’re really stuck, you know how to get out?

fresh quiver
#

It's not too small though, I just ran out of flaps to fly back out

plush dagger
#

Heyy

#

I want to play with my friends on ios

#

With my Android phone

#

But as I scan the code while inviting it says failed / cancelled

brazen flicker
#

@plush dagger are you both using the correct version? Live invites won’t work in beta, and beta invites won’t work in live. Also, friend invites are single-use, so if the code has already been used then it’ll give you an error when you try to scan it. You can try sending your friend the code instead, or ask them to create a new one for you! 😊

hollow compass
#

@fresh quiver where exactly is this room?

#

oh, I saw you posted a photo

cinder bridge
#

is there a mac beta?

#

ive seen a few mentions of it but im not sure

torn scarab
#

I still have loneliness

hollow compass
#

@cinder bridge there was one, but it hasn't been updated since July, so it's unplayable at the moment

cinder bridge
#

thank you!

empty inlet
#

I'm still thinking we need a private space in game

#

When I was accessing constellation earlier today, someone was shooting firework around, and made me hard to see thing in my constellation

#

On the other hand, I think Home is a place that we can spend time with friends or strangers, so i'm more approval for you can do anything you want in Home

hollow compass
#

yeah, I really miss my private "administrative" space

#

sometimes I just want to log in and check some things and/or send light/hearts

#

how to get beta?

hollow compass
empty inlet
#

Also is there anyway planned for us to get the mask on the quest giver?

#

hi! is there anyone who knows how to get to the space station?

hollow compass
#

you need to ||visit the office on a day when it is dark and then approach the TV||

last grove
#

This may be annoying because I’ve only been playing sky since it’s release, but how can I get the beta version? I would genuinely love to see new developments to the game. Or is beta not an option anymore?

short lava
#

@last grove Q: How do I join the Sky Beta?
Right now, the Beta is currently full but we will be doing more Beta invite waves as testing requires. Please follow this Discord or join our Testflight Facebook group for when the next beta wave opens, as we will not be announcing these over over the newsletter. These will be clickable links that are first-come-first-serve, so it will fill quickly!

last grove
#

I know that’s probably a question that’s asked a lot but I’m new to discord and didn’t know where the links were at first. Now I know. Thank you šŸ™‚

short lava
#

@last grove Oh that's fine ^^ Had my problems at first too so I don't blame you xD have fun!

I love this game

spark lance
#

Lol

fresh quiver
#

They changed the badges, they're now visible to everyone. :O

#

Or at the very least I can see newbie badges on shadowed people, I have the shepherd badge

stoic ocean
#

Something really weird just happened to me. I did Eden this morning with my live account then logged into beta and did Valley (wing light and candle light collection). Just now, I went to do Valley with my live account and I couldn’t get any candles from the races or candles but all my wing light kids were still there.

crystal fractal
#

I don’t think it’s related to your beta, I think it’s just a bug that you didn’t get candles for the races with your live account

#

beta and live are not linked in any way

stoic ocean
#

That’s what I thought. The coincidence was just mind blowing. 🤯

plush dagger
#

@brazen flicker my ios friend downloaded from app store and I downloaded from a link sent here for beta

fresh quiver
#

If your ios friend downloaded it from the app store then it's the live version, so you can't play with them since live and beta are separate

torn scarab
#

Hello?

#

I'm always alone in sky beta

white root
#

I'm alone most of the time too

frail fox
#

Me too

hollow compass
#

Do you mean you never see anyone else around? It’s very common for beta to be quiet during testing downtime. I think most people are playing the season Live now.

spark lance
#

@hollow compass The Android beta is actively being tested now.

hollow compass
#

yes...?

#

I assumed these players were in iOS, because of the channel

spark lance
#

When players are new to the Android beta and to our Discord, they may not know there’s an Android discussion channel.

empty inlet
#

also you can still meet android players if you’re playing ios beta?

hollow compass
#

true

#

I just find that beta in general seems less active, because Live is out now

#

but perhaps Android isn't like that?

#

I don't know how many are in Android beta, though

hidden dew
#

As I understand, you cannot become a beta tester for iOS right now?

hollow compass
#

that's right

spark lance
hidden dew
#

Ok

spark lance
#

@hollow compass Android isn’t like the iOS beta because there’s no live version yet. We don’t know how many Android testers there are.

hollow compass
#

exactly

#

but I remember iOS beta being quite lonely at times also even before Live

vapid drum
#

Just wait in home , and see how many new borns come in at some days

#

You immediately know when there’s a new android beta wave

hollow compass
#

lol

#

I noticed Prairie hub is also a good place for that

stone elk
#

Can I still play iOS beta if I already started in the live session?

spark lance
#

Yes they are separate apps.

stone elk
#

Oh really so what the beta one called? @spark lance

spark lance
#

It’s called Sky Beta. But you have to be part of the iOS or Android beta group to have access to it.

#

I assumed you were asking because you were already part of the beta group.

stone elk
#

So I assume I can’t join now? @spark lance

empty inlet
#

You can still join android beta but iOS beta is already full so you can’t join

spark lance
stone elk
#

K. Thx

brazen flicker
#

@plush dagger if your iOS friend downloaded from the App Store (and not through TestFlight) then they’re probably playing the live version. If that’s the case, then you guys might have to wait to play together- either until Android goes live, or until more spots are available in iOS beta and your friend can become a beta tester.

exotic flame
#

Shoutout to the person that gave me a one-person concert in the butterfly cave in Daylight Prairie yesterday. I've been having a rough time irl lately and that really made my day <3

rich wolf
#

anything new in the beta?

lusty light
#

There probably won’t be any major updates to beta until the season ends

#

There hasn’t been an update in almost a week and it was just hotfixes

empty inlet
#

live: 0.6.1 (141257)
beta: 0.6.1 (141244)

because: live has a greater build number
therefore: live has the latest build
conclusion: live is beta

spark lance
#

wait a sec

hollow compass
#

no

#

however, some features from beta have been introduced incrementally in Live, thus giving Live a higher build number

#

such as: pushing the patches to Live, but not the new features (badge for example)

pallid badger
#

Yeah. Noticed yesterday that the rain stops in live now like in beta when you activate the jellyfish. That wasn’t the case before this last hotfix.

hollow compass
#

I think that for some new features TGC wants to hear out feedback first. They've done some changes to the badge system, for example.

empty inlet
#

that, need more interact with people but it’s nearly empty in beta tho

#

i can’t test it on my own even if i have alts

#

although i really hate the idea of showing the badge to everyone

hollow compass
#

I'm not sure what there is to test about it, other than seeing it an interacting with other players based on it

empty inlet
#

imagine you have a badge above your head if you’re the top 10% of the class and another badge if you’re the lowest 10% of the class

hollow compass
#

I have no need for a badge to show my merit and I have no need to base my gameplay on other players' badge grade

#

it's usually fairly obvious if a player needs help by looking at their outfit and number of stars on their cape

empty inlet
#

yeah right

hollow compass
#

for the same reason I am hesitant to wear the beta cape in Live, I would be uncomfortable having a badge above my head that basically signals "Help Manager"

#

you can't force kindness out of people

empty inlet
#

imo white cape looks better than beta cape

hollow compass
#

white cape is divine!

empty inlet
#

no matter how, you need to let people to have the willingness to be kind and helpful spontaneously

hollow compass
#

exactly

empty inlet
#

it can come really naturally from how to design the quest or puzzles

#

like the wasteland light seeker season spirit is really doing a great job

hollow compass
#

I mean, any time I see someone calling at a 2-person door in Prairie, I rush to help

#

it's not a big thing

pallid badger
#

Same @hollow compass My founders cape only comes on when I’m specifically ||office|| bound. Otherwise I’m rocking my purple.

fresh quiver
#

They've changed how the badges work but I'm not sure how much they've changed them lol

hollow compass
#

but I'd hate to have people following me, chirping to get my attention, because of some obligation

empty inlet
#

^ same

hollow compass
#

ah, purple is also pretty!

pallid badger
#

I wish more people would stop and help. Same with the doors in vault. Just 2 moments of your time to help open the door, but the amount that totally ignore and continue on their way.

hollow compass
#

that's bth weird and rude

#

you'd think we've all been there, trying to get in

pallid badger
#

It is. I mean, they are no doubt in that same position sometimes.

hollow compass
#

it is especially rude in beta, where there are fewer players around at any given moment

pallid badger
#

None, most of the time, for me anyway. It’s a lonely world in there.

empty inlet
#

today i saw a guy chirping all around the first floor in vault, i guess (s)he wanted to open the door but never went near the door

hollow compass
#

they may have been looking for ||the office entrance||

empty inlet
#

Ya same, I feel like the current Home hub is way too small. In the old version, I like that managing friends happened in a different area from the portals, it seems more peaceful and I can take my time if I have a lot of friends.

Now everyone gathers at the constellation map area to send hearts or buy things, and it's honestly pretty annoying if there’s too many people... I also can’t talk to my friends properly cause random people just keep intruding, cause the area is so small

Feedback on social ranking: I don't believe that it enhances relationships or a spirit of helpfulness in the game, and I hope it does not get implemented in live.

bold pasture
#

I think while it could be fine: I don't enjoy the idea of any sort of competitive ranking in this game. That being said.. if other people can't see your ranking it might be okay. I dislike the idea of players judging other players based on a superficial rank.

hollow compass
#

Feedback on social ranking: I see no practical use for it. I don’t need others to know how kind or helpful I am. I don’t want to be approached at all and any time by people expecting me to help (much like the beta cape with the secret area). It’s usually obvious if someone is new in the game and then it’s up to us more experienced players to help, if we have the time and energy in that moment.

Social Ranking: I like the idea of it being a more private thing. Other wise you have players "helping" each other for the wrong reason. It is quite a vain feature that pulls away from the altruistic feel of the game.

wraith cedar
#

My take on the social rankings:
I don't think it adds much to the game, and what it does add is more of a competitive vibe which I don't really feel is very fitting for this game either. I prefer to judge player's experience with the game from their cosmetics and stars on their back rather than a weird badge floating above their heads.

I like being able to see newbies so I can help them out, but honestly I'm confused as to how it works in beta currently now that it's been changed. I can't tell if everyone can see my shepherd badge now or not? But anyway, I wish there was some sort of toggle option to show that I'm willing to help so I can turn it off if I don't want to be approached by people.

if it was an anklet or bracelet it would be cool. the huge badge is a bit of an eyesore. it is already easy to tell who is new and who is experienced

torn gust
#

I don’t mind having a badge to signify helpfullness as long as its sort of volunteer based, and you can switch it off if you need to. Sometimes I really am just there to help out new players and having a little badge to signify that could work? But othertimes i just want to spend time with friends or just want to play it solo and admire the scenery.

I think also if it were to be kept, maybe find a smaller/different way to display it. Theres a lot of clutter on the screen with the names, chatboxes, AND the badge overlaying things that could be messy on smaller screens

worthy barn
#

I don’t really like the social rankings the way they are right now— it motivates people to help for the wrong reasons instead of being genuinely good. I’d like to show I’m willing to help!! But not like this, rather show my experience through friending someone and showing them to a hard-to-reach star or bringing them to a cool spirit place on my own.
It has the ā€œoh I’m just trying to get my ranking upā€ vibe— it’s competitive, people are judging you over it and instead of ā€œoh I just want to help you, it was hard for meā€ it turns into ā€œI want to up my rankā€

tardy dove
#

I don't really see much benefit to having the social ranking, there could be other ways to signal that you want to help new players, or even the other way around where the new player signals that they want to be helped. If you were to implement social ranking I'd make the meter completely invisible, so even the player cannot see their own meter, just to prevent any competitiveness. Though i don't really see any issue since theres no cosmetic benefit other than having the shepherd icon above your head.

radiant drum
#

I don’t mind the ranking too much, but I don’t see how it adds anything to the game. Like others have said you can see if someone else is a veteran or a moth just by their looks and play style. If the rank stays, maybe find a way to place it somewhere else (maybe on the friend menu when you tap someone, or a cosmetic?) and make it optional, so people can decide if they want to toggle it on or off to signal they want to ask for/offer help

dire escarp
#

Feedback on social ranking:
I like that you can see new players, makes it much easier to distinguish between actual new players who are looking for help with the basics, and those who have just returned from Eden and are looking for stars.
As a suggestion, if you are in the server with a new player, or someone who hasn't collected spirits, could you make the starting position visible to all players, as its hard to explain that you can't see what they can in just emotes.

#

Maybe extra hearts for keeping a high friendliness ranking per week?

torn gust
#

Thats a great point Maelstrom, if something like the shepherd badge is kept, could it toggle a spark or something where the spirits starting positions are? There can be some guesswork when it comes to leading new players around a level and wanting to help them with stars and emotes as the starting positions for emotes you already have are invisible.

worthy barn
#

I think something like that would be cool as well!! If the system was changed more where you can get perks that help people, It’d be cool

I’ve tried to help someone around wasteland before— I didn’t know where most spirits’ specific locations were, though :c

#

That's actually a huge change in how newly met people interact with each other. I think tgc have an idea of how people interact in the game, the purpose of the social ranking system is to encourage people to do more helpful or kind interactions right?

#

I think the language-less concept similar to Journey is still an important part for Sky

empty inlet
#

Thoughts on social ranking system:

First, I think it's good that players cannot know what exact things they need to do to increase the scale.

And I also think it's somewhat good to have no reward when player get the shepherd badge. However, it'll also have less effect on encouraging people to be kind and helpful. (For me I don't care whether i'm not a shepherd because the badge itself is not appealing me.)

There’s a possibility that one small group of players all get a shepherd badge because they’re very generous to each other, but they’ve never been nicer to strangers. (This is not a problem if the system have a decent rule to make account for the player’s overall contribution to the whole game society.)

The badge is a bad idea cause it divide players into different categories. Shepherd badge doesn't mean the player is willing to help, also no shepherd badge doesn't mean the player can't help you. Newbie badge doesn't necessary mean this is a new player. (My alt has never get rid of its newbie badge) Currently, the most apparent information the badges on others give me is that, this is a Shepherd, that’s a Newbie. (Notice this is different from telling me the player is helpful or needing help) In before the pattern on cape tells how long has this player actually played the game and interacted with people, I think it’s better than a single badge.

To conclude, the social ranking system is a bit pointless in terms of improving the core concept of the game. (It might improves new players’ experience, but I’m not standing for this point in this feedback)

Thank you all for the great feedback! I'll be passing this along to the Dev team as they continue to work on this system. (For anyone who hasn't had a chance to put your thoughts in here yet, there's still plenty of time to add to the discussion highfive )

I think that the badge could be improved upon. I kinda agree with the others that while the feature has the best intention, it accidentally adds in a bit of competitiveness to the game. To remedy this, I really don’t think we should be able to see any progression bar, or really anything about it. It should also favor acts of kindness done to strangers than to friends. Any eligible player could then be given a notification with the option of becoming a shepherd. I do also agree that this feature should have the option to be turned on or off at will. I do think that people who aren’t your friend should be able to see this, not every new player is going to be your friend. I do also think that it should be some cosmetic on your character, not something that’s sore to the eye, but also not something that other players can miss. (People who haven’t used their candle to light you up should also be able to see this.) Finally, I think a shepherd should indeed be able to see spirits they’ve already collected. It shouldn’t be necessary to know every precise location of every spirit to help out another player.

I find it nice to be distinguished as a shepherd. But also it is too easy to get it. I would prefer it to be harder to earn. And after we earn it i would like to get some shepherd abilities. Like an ability to hold hands with people we’re not friends with (up to 8). Being able to guide a group. To see the spirits locations. So that we can help strangers. That would be fun use of the badge.

Feedback on the social ranking feature:
I personally think this feature is not necessary. It's unnatural to know who's friendly or not with a glance, and I also fear that applying social ranking system may destroy the beauty of casual/spontaneous social interactions and people's genuine kindness which we can experience in Sky now. In addition, encouraging senior players to help newbies may lead to excessive helping, which may spoil the newbies' precious experiences exploring the new, unknown world on their own or with other newbie explorers.
Therefore, if you are going to introduce this feature to live, I think players need a clear explanation on exactly why you are adding this feature. (And if a lot of newbies are complaining there's no one helping them in the game, there seem other more simple and natural ways which may solve it, like adding a "help" chirp or "help" flag.)
And if this feature will be going to live, I also think that Shepherds should be able to switch off the badge for reasons people already stated above, plus the following additional reason: Sky is a mobile app and I know my friends playing this game also when they only have a limited time, like during short breaks or while commuting on a train. Because of their badge, some Shepherds may feel uncomfortable and become reluctant to log in to Sky when they do have a time to complete some daily quests but not enough to help others.

vapid drum

Social ranking feedback ,
The overal idea behind it is good. But I’m afraid it will tear the sky community apart. I think the shepherd badge will turn into a status product and leave some people with a god syndrome. Also I don’t think newbies like to be seen as newbies by a badge. Sure , they aren’t that experienced yet but let them explore for themselves , make friends with other brownies and ask for help when needed. Personally I just put down my table when seeing a new player , make some small talk and ask them if they need help with something. I do that at times when I want too and when I’m not in a hurry , having a shepherd badge above my head will make me a target when I don’t have time to fulfill that role. If tgc insists on introducing the badge , let it come with a toggle option to turn it on or off on players will and make it less flashy. Like stated in above feedback, it’s kinda cluttering the screen and polluting the environments scenery.

I’m with the camp that feel it is unnecessary. You can tell who is experienced and who isn’t by their appearance/wedges/playing style. I play through to collect wax and I do this on my own so I can put it down and pick it up as and when I need/want to. Once I’m done, then it is time to socialise and interact with other players. Two completely different play styles, one fast and efficient, the other relaxed. The badge interferes with the view a bit too. I’m just... not a fan.

I think the badge system is good, but should be voluntary. Be able to turn it on/ off. Turn it on to let other people know that you can help, turn it off if you don't want to at the time. Implement other badges too (also able to be turned on/off).... I think just having it able to be turned on/off would help allieviate much of the problems people discussed.

#
  • bring back the OwO and other masks (at least let us know if they'll be used for future cosmetics or not)
#
  • let us get the elder questgiver mask (or let us know if it will be tweaked and used/given for a future season)

Shepherd ranking system feedback—not a fan.

Newbie badges: They’re convenient; there have been a few times I was playing with someone who I thought was brand new, but after a while it became apparent they weren’t all that new, just hadn’t gotten a new cape or much for additional cosmetics. Still, like others have said, I can usually tell who the newbies are by their cape color, how many cape stars they have, and by how they play. And not all the newbies want help or know how to play with other people. If I go up to someone who is/seems new, they’re just as likely as not to ignore me and go off and do their own thing.

Shepherd badges: Don’t like ā€˜em. Visually they take up a lot of screen space. They look like police badges, which is weird. It is also hard to find out what they mean—tapping on them doesn’t do anything, and I don’t know how many people will tap on the little icon in the one part of their friend constellation screen. As an experienced player, I don’t really need or want to see them. When I have one, I don’t like it being visible to everyone all the time because sometimes I just want to solo play or just play with friends, and I’d be worried people who know what the badge means would come up and expect me to stop and play with them.

It was also weird to me that I got my badge within just a few days after the feature was introduced. The impression that gives me is that it’s based off of a few instances or episodes of playing, rather than consistent or reliably helpful behavior.

Bigger concerns: that people will treat the shepherd badge as a status symbol such that helping people becomes a means to an end, rather than helping people for the enjoyment of it. For the same reasons, I would also be strongly against giving a player a reward for having or keeping Shepherd status.

hollow compass
#

I'd like to add something that was brought up on FB: the possibility that people, or rather trolls, will abuse the system just like some have messed with people by using the table. Sadly, it's not possible to force people to be kind and helpful; it must always come from within the person themselves. A badge doesn't make friends. Someone famous once said: labels are for canned food. šŸ˜‰

spark lance
#

The ranking system honestly just splits players in groups, and it’ll make people feel like someone who has a badge is better than them or is always up to help someone. Though I like the idea of a toggle-able helper badge that lets the starting points of the missing spirits and the missing stars of the person you’re holding glow. I hate wanting to help a friend, not knowing where the starting point of the spirit they need is and just running around an area cluelessly trying to touch the spirit šŸ˜“

white forge
#

a social ranking system seems kind of clunky and implies a hierarchy of kind of... aggressive competitive friendliness? it feels a little overwhelming. I like the idea from a little bit ago of toggling a Shepard badge on or off to show that you’re available and willing to help guide people through areas or show them things. sometimes im just running through the game for candles that day, other times ill be in wasteland or something and im just hanging around because im actively looking for folks to help.

torn gust
#

Im very interested in the idea of a helper badge/mode you can turn on that reveals a spirits starting locations (ive recollected stars often enough that i got their positions memorized). Maybe instead of a floating badge icon it could be a visual effect on the character? Sorta like how volunteers at parks will have a nametag on their clothes that signifies they’re here to help. If its an effect on the player model themselves that could potentially avoid overcluttering the screen with names/symbols/chatboxes that are already there.. (However im a bit stumped as to what that visual effect on the player model could possibly look like šŸ˜…)
Perhaps first you still have to earn the helper mode by certain requirements and then after you can turn it on and off. I’m not a fan of the idea of there being a reward for having this shepherd helper badge though

hybrid wedge
#

Regardless of what happens with the shepherd badge thing, I would absolutely love love love to be able to see where spirit starting locations are. I’m lucky enough to have played the big beta reset and the global launch recently enough that I can basically remember where everything is, but there’s only a tiny proportion of players who’ve had that advantage.

torn gust
#

Even if its something small! Perhaps a different colored spark like what the seasonal emotes start as? or some sparkles from the ground. maybe the effect that the player gets when theyre using a spell, but its at the spot where the spirit starts?

hollow compass

Same.

#

There are a few I am uncertain about where they start, but I do remember most of them. But it would make it so much easier to guide someone, if there was a visible starting point even for those of us who already have the spirits.

I think Valley's weakness is that you're locked in a mode that is just transport without a means (other than that one candle at the end)

#

you can't explore much

#

and the fact that you have to reset the level to do the other race is also impractical

#

but then again, in Vault you can't travel backwards either

hybrid wedge
#

I don’t know why they took out facepalm (and oh the animation for it was so good), but I suppose it can more easily come across as rude than other emotes. But mostly I used it to refer to myself or annoying situations, like ā€œugh not that bug again.ā€ I miss it, but a similar sentiment can be conveyed with other emotes. I miss ones like sThink and sKiss so much more that don’t have any other approximations.

Yes, when we could have our emotes locked and go tease the Krill

hollow compass
#

krill dancing was a thing

#

I actually miss that

nova escarp
#

I still remember my first eden run in limited live..
I lost all my emotes before i could reach the exit and exited the game in tears ;-;

hollow compass
#

omg, yes trying to reach that temple - the pain when you thought you were there and were knocked down!

nova escarp
#

i didnt touch the game for a few months after that, but came back around the winter season and recollected alllllll the emotes again

hollow compass
#

I played Eden in Soft a few times just before Live launch also and boy, was that a pain in the...neck

nova escarp
#

worth it cause now i have all the winter emotes >:'>

hollow compass
#

I do think this version is one of the better ones

#

aw, I wish I had been clever enough to do that too

#

I just remember being so tired of Winter in beta I didn't want to touch it in Soft also

nova escarp
#

Oog
Really the only reason i came back was cause it was one of the few things that let me connect more with my sib and some of my friends

#

... I think Im glad i came back ^^

#

Are the placeholder masks gonna be used for future seasons

#

I was legit excited for the season, and then stuff got moved around and taken out

radiant drum
#

Things will get moved around and changed in beta, heathr. That’s what beta is for

#

Maybe reconsider testing the next season so you won’t be disappointed when things change

#

I understand you’re upset and I agree with you on disliking some of the changes, but as beta testers we just submit our feedback and move on

#

TGC will do what they think it’s best

sly otter
#

wait so what happened with the masks?

radiant drum
#

There were some different mask designs while the season was in beta, and some things got changed around in the constellations before live

sly otter
#

wait really? i guess i just didn’t notice in beta

#

wait

#

i remember

#

like the tear drop mask?

Yes

#

This is a Facebook user's idea

#

Shepherd status feedback.

I believe it is an important idea. Allowing to shape the community by spreading the values and altruistic behaviors on which Sky is based.

The badge itself is useless. It doesn’t give us any shepherd abilities. As a shepherd i would like:

  • to be able to offer my hand to any player, regardless if we’re friends or not. Allowing to make a group of people to shepherd

  • for other players in the same area to be able to take my hand and to warp to me, especially if they are in trouble

  • to be able to talk to people i’m holding hands with

And instead of the badge would be great to get an ability to ask creatures of light to follow us by our side (and to stop following as well). Having a shepherd dog, bird or a butterfly is much nicer then just a badge. That can also act as switch on/off of shepherd status (and abilities).

spark lance
#

what’s the difference with the beta version??

hollow compass
#

@spark lance do you mean what is different between Live and beta? Beta is a testing environment for new features and bug fixes.

spark lance
#

yes!so did we get something from the beta?

green cave
#

The original pre-launch beta testers got a cape for their work!

#

No future reward is planned, and all progress made in beta will stay in beta

spark lance
#

oww!i understand now thx u so much

green cave
#

No problem!

hollow compass
#

@pure stag Did you ask permission to post that from the OP? Not that anything of a sensitive nature was said, but seeing as the person is on this server maybe they chose FB for a reason instead of posting here?

#

I commented on the FB post also, saying that there is unfortunately a risk that there will be people who would abuse a system where we can hold hands with strangers. Having a visible badge that tells people you are trustworthy doesn't necessarily mean you really are.

thin orchid
#

The friendliness score can be calculated in a way that gives low chances for people who want to abuse the system to get the shepherd badge. Bringing possibility of such abuse close to 0.

#

Thanks for sharing my fp post here @pure stag

Is the beta office area frozen for anyone else today?
Trying to open the front door brings out candle but doesn't open the door, getting in through the skylight works, but lighting candles does not give wax, and melting plants makes them turn orange but not shrink at all?

hollow compass
#

Sounds more like a server issue. Perhaps restart the app or check your internet connection?

dire escarp
#

Restarted, still the same, then went into a different area then back into vault and it worked.

Maybe bugged vault, not sure if I can recreate it, but I'll try

Unfortunately you can't edit, you'd have to resubmit all over again. If you want (and have the time) to add the video, just start a newreport and notate that it's for your previous submission.

I played beta from the start and never received my beta cape on live. How do I fix this?

lusty light
#

Contact support, but did you play beta after the reset?

peak jolt
#

What reset?

lusty light
#

About a month or two before global launch there was a progress and access wipe and you had to rejoin beta

#

So those beta players got the beta cape automatically because that’s what they had in the system

#

But if you contact support they can still help you

peak jolt
#

I don't think I remember that so maybe not haha. But thanks! I'll do that!

if you were joining beta after July 18th, you’re not eligible for the beta cape in live

They said they’ve been playing since the beginning but didn’t rejoin after the reset

Well apparently I misread ā€œfrom the startā€

I downloaded it right when the link to download was posted

@peak jolt which one? There have been a couple times beta links have been posted. The most recent one was a little over a month ago.

peak jolt
#

@brazen flicker I signed up to join beta back in June. I can't remember when the beta link was sent out after that

lusty light
#

when you said the beginning i thought u meant january 2018 :0

#

if you joined after the reset

#

to qualify for the cape you had to finish forest and get to valley

#

did you do that?

peak jolt
#

Oh haha sorry! No just back in June. Start of the new season? I think. I did finish those. Went through Eden and everything

Contacting Support is your best option, and it's what TGC asked anyone to do if they felt they qualified for the cape. Good luck!

Want to see these hints but not sure how to get lost. šŸ˜‚ the levels are open for exploration, you don’t have to follow a scripted path.

dire escarp
#

I did see one, there was a prompt as I went into office in vault saying to chirp to see the way forward.

#

Not sure if they are more regular than before or just triggered in certain areas

pallid badger
#

Yeah I went into forest, ran into a wind wall at the edge somewhere and got the same message you got. What I don’t like, and what I have never liked, is depending on how far through the level you are, you get pointed to the start sometimes rather than the end. If I got lost, I’d want to know which way to go to progress through the level, not get directed back to the beginning of it. This was a major issue for me in the graveyard swamp in golden wasteland as a newer player. I’d get turned around while in the hiding spaces, wouldn’t know which way to go so would chirp and follow the direction of the symbol, assuming that was the direction the end of the level was. Of course it wasn’t, and I’d end up doing a loop of the map and back at the start of it again. šŸ˜•

blazing sail
#

Sigh it’s gonna cost $10

#

Would have killed for a proper Halloween season instead of rain season

#

But $10 for one cape?

orchid nexus
#

I say discuss it. I've heard one or two people say privately that $10 is a lot. I would not bat an eyelash at $3, but might not pay $10, since I already bought the adventure pass

#

Since it's in beta, maybe the price is still TBD. (this is in no way an official statement, I have no involvement or influence)

rich tundra
#

Imo, $10 is a little too much for just a cape, compared to the Founder’s cape that also includes 100+ candles, but it’s their decision and I won’t force them to change prices drastically

blazing sail
#

It’s just... I really wanted proper Halloween stuff. And they gave us rain gear instead

hybrid wedge
#

Not paying 10 bucks for it, especially since it’s more novelty than anything else

blazing sail
#

Would have been nice to just give us the Halloween cape for free

#

As just a cool present

lusty light
#

If you threw in some candles maybe it would be worth it

#

But the starter pack is only 5 dollars

#

Why 10 for Just a cape

hybrid wedge
#

It would have been cool if it were temporarily in the game, tucked away or an easy Easter egg

blazing sail
#

It could have been part of the seasonal stuff, too. But instead it’s $10 just for that? Jesus

#

That too

#

I thought maybe the witch cat would give it

rich tundra
#

Such a shame, I really would like to have this cape

#

Maybe they’ll change prices who knows

blazing sail
#

Same. But it really goes against Everything I believe to pay $10 for an in-game accessory

hybrid wedge
#

You can have it for free in beta though! sLUL

rich tundra
#

True

lusty light
#

I think the cape should be like 1-2 dollars if it’s just a cape tbh

torn gust
#

I could see $10 being alright if you had the option to also gift the cape to some friends as well (sorta like how the seasonal pass has that gifting option?)

#

like a trick or treat, minus the trick

hybrid wedge
#

I was fine with the orange cape in the starter pack. Didn’t hesitate with that one, and it was what, $5? I’m not sure yet why the two strike me so differently.

empty inlet
#

the starter pack also have candles

rich tundra
#

It’s that subtle change that makes a huge difference

blazing sail
#

I didn’t buy the starter pack

#

I only bought seasonal passes

#

I don’t like paying directly for an accessory

hybrid wedge
#

True, Kanpai.

I think the part of the Halloween cape with this price that rubs me the wrong way is that it seems to be in a genre of purchases that emphasize players’ economic differences. The more of these kind of purchases there are, the more you can tell the difference between the haves and the have nots.

#

At least with the season pass we have the chance to receive it from others

blazing sail
#

Yes

#

The founders cape screams ā€œI can buy thisā€

#

The seasonal stuff is different

#

You’re paying for a whole 45 days of extra things

lusty light
#

The founders cape is there for you to support the devs

arctic pecan
#

It was ridiculously expensive for me when it comes to the founder cape so I didn’t buy it

blazing sail
#

Yes but it shows who has money to spend $30 on one cape

arctic pecan
#

$40 something dollars in AUD ( which is off my limit when it comes to the itunes cards )

empty inlet
#

I would only buy the "support the devs" concept once

#

I spent 30 on the founder cape, that's it, it's even more expensive than Journey on ps4

arctic pecan
#

Rather spend on the group pass than on just cape packs

empty inlet
#

I wouldn't like to have another $10 for the reason of "support the devs"

lusty light
#

Founder is supposed to be kind of like beta cape, beta cape is there for players who supported devs before launch, founders is for ppl who support after

#

And they make it expensive to not lessen the value of beta cape

blazing sail
#

$10-15 every 45 days is more than enough support IMO

hybrid wedge
#

If there are very few big ticket items like that, that’s one thing. To use a common holiday to sell a cosmetic is different.

lusty light
#

I don’t think the bat cape should be 10 dollars at all... and it’s weird to only be able to get it in the office

#

What’s the reason for that?

arctic pecan
#

True

blazing sail
#

Yep

arctic pecan
#

Should be like some event or something

blazing sail
#

Would have been a really nice gift to celebrate Halloween

#

Especially since they didn’t make a Halloween season

lusty light
#

Yeah a nice gift

arctic pecan
#

Mhmm mhmm

#

like on the day of Halloween

lusty light
#

They don’t want to have a Halloween season so instead you get something to remind you of it

hybrid wedge
#

Office = fun place, a bit of its own world compared to the game, so it makes sense to me to put it there

lusty light
#

But 10 dollars......

arctic pecan
#

convert that to AUD and it’s even more expensive
10 USD => 13-14 AUD

lusty light
#

If there’s no candles attached it’s super expensive

blazing sail
#

Yeah but $10 after people just bought the season is kind of gross

lusty light
#

The season pass gives you a bunch more cosmetics And candles if you have leftover

blazing sail
#

Yup

hybrid wedge
#

It’s a permanent cape (we assume), so different from the pass in that regard

#

But then we get people going around Sky with a bat cape ĀÆ_(惄)_/ĀÆ

blazing sail
#

The stuff you get from the pass are permanent tho

empty inlet
#

but with pass i get a lot permanent capes

blazing sail
#

I wouldn’t have bought a pass if I only got one item from it

arctic pecan
#

Might as well make the worth of the pass and money

lusty light
#

The starter pack I bought because it came with around 15 candles

empty inlet
#

and the founder pack i bought because it came with around 100+ candles

orchid nexus
#

I would like to trick-or-treat at the office and get candy that I can actually eat. But (and this will be an unpopular opinion) I think the bat cape is actually a little too non-Sky in style. It makes sense in the office, but doesn't match the rest of the world. It's even more "cosmetic" than most of the cosmetics to me, if that makes any sense at all.

lusty light
#

Yeah I get that

arctic pecan
#

Mhmm i agree

lusty light
#

Something that’s directly tied to the real world

#

Other things are influenced but not explicit

blazing sail
#

Maybe bc of the Orange?

orchid nexus
#

it's very "halloween costume" which, don't get me wrong that's great, I love halloween and I love making costumes, but it's not modeled after an in-game creature. there are no bats in sky!

lusty light
#

The bat cape is so cute tho it’s kinda heart breaking 🤧 even the stars are bats

blazing sail
#

Yeah a krill costume would be cool

#

But bat cape is still cool too

orchid nexus
#

I would krill for a krill cape

blazing sail
#

I would have liked a transparent spiderweb cape in the same shape

arctic pecan
#

Maybe have a krill mask to accompany the cape?

sage mulch
#

Yeah, maybe if they threw in some Krill inspo it would fit better in.

arctic pecan
#

Mhmm

blazing sail
#

Krill mask complete with light

lusty light
#

Ooh so it would be like a pack of a mask and the cape?

#

For 2 dollars

#

Or they should just give it free for ppl who play during a timeframe (recommended)

sage mulch
#

I was actually thinking about designing a cape based off of the dark plants. They're very much cape material.

hybrid wedge
#

I’m a few messages behind, but about the orange vs. Halloween vs. other capes—all the other capes tie into the story somehow

rich tundra
#

Oh I didn’t realize the stars are bats! That’s a nice detail added in but the priceeee

arctic pecan
#

mhmm

#

spooky stars

orchid nexus
#

but since it's october, and dev time is limited, and I'm imagining they want this to hit live soon...

hybrid wedge
#

Even the orange and season pass ones we pay for. This one just....doesn’t

arctic pecan
#

true...

sage mulch
#

To me it's a little too plain?

arctic pecan
#

maybe if they could add some spikes

#

for the cape

#

just to make a little more krill or something

sage mulch
#

If we dull the orange and add some embellishments, I think it would be much better.

hybrid wedge
#

If it weren’t plain it would be even more out of place to me! XD

arctic pecan
#

true...

orchid nexus
#

for just the cape, think the 2-3USD range would be a much easier sell for your average player.

sage mulch
#

Well, we have the seasonal capes. And I'm not saying that we make it scream Halloween.

orchid nexus
#

for another day, another promo, I would buy a krill cape for more, especially if it made me drop the little krill-dust as I fly

Not the purple from the regular cape that’s usually pink

No one knows what the next season will be, place your bets now!

Like persona series with their bright primary colours

In before we get a clear cape.

#

Season of "The Colour Out of Space" for all you H.P. Lovecraft fans

#

... Lovecraft killed the conversation? Everyone driven mad by the thought of Cthulhu?

torn gust
#

eldritch horrors!

arctic pecan
#

I-I’m fine, just watching from safe distance

hybrid wedge
#

Cthulhu cape when????

orchid nexus
#

drives all other sky children to insanity?

blazing sail
#

I might be persuaded to put away my deer mask for a Cthulhu or krill mask

arctic pecan
#

Definitely a krill mask for me!

#

Wait, so when you're in beta, you're getting a beta cape?

lusty light
#

No

empty inlet
#

depends

#

The Beta Cape was a one-time reward for the testing period prior to the iOS global launch. A future reward is not planned.

#

Still can’t believe they’re asking $10 for a holiday item. Most games do that kind of stuff for free bc it’s fun and nice and makes everyone happy

orchid nexus
#

I would also pay more for a permanent Holiday Cape that becomes a new themed item around various holidays and is only permanent in the sense that you have whichever themed item is current

blazing sail
#

Infinity Blade had a helmet like that

#

Changed each season

#

I think

sage mulch
#

Yeah. I mean, it's extra work put in by the devs, but still. If they wanna sell it, ten is a lot. I'm fine with two dollars, heck I'm more than willing to buy it for two.

blazing sail
#

Or was it a separate helmet each holiday? lol

#

Yeah $2 would be a lot more reasonable and it would allow more people to take part

orchid nexus
#

How about a free PEPSI-COLA cape?? genius, right? sLaugh

sage mulch
#

I would pay a million for a pepsi-cola cape.

blazing sail
#

I’m wondering... did they bite off more than they can chew? Are they not covering their costs with the usual stuff that they have to start offering individual items for sale?

sage mulch
#

I know that more people would buy it for two. Kinda scare off quite a few people when it's ten for just a cape.

orchid nexus
#

unless the company goes public, I doubt we can do more than speculate in that direction

blazing sail
#

I’m surprised by how many people bought the founders cape and how many people bought 250 seasonal candles to have the fancy umbrella on day 1 of the season

orchid nexus
#

yeah, I mean on the one hand I didn't expect to see anything like that

blazing sail
#

I guess if people are willing to spend the money, the devs are just gonna keep adding ridiculous stuff like that

orchid nexus
#

on the other, the official server is where we'll find people who are fanatical about the game and/or the company

empty inlet
#

the active player in Sky may be less than they’ve announced

arctic pecan
#

I’m still haven’t got the umbrella despite getting the pass on day One ( i just like to take my time )
