beta-discussion

[orchid nexus]

beta expectations should be set though: when new things appear, expect them to be broken.

[hybrid wedge]

💯

[stoic ocean]

BROKEN

[crisp igloo]

Im so attached to beta

[stoic ocean]

[crisp igloo]

I forgot I was even in beta

[toxic sparrow]

Ive been playing for 10 minutes and i already glitched whoops

[hidden pivot]

MOOD

[quaint onyx]

Ahh man, now we got false-flag newbie badges. Newbies who are already pro-live players

[rustic imp]

bug report!

[orchid nexus]

when something doesn't work right, submit a bug report and move on. don't worry if it's not addressed in the next build or the one after.

[crisp igloo]

@quaint onyx exactly

[hidden pivot]

i spawned in prairie instead of home and i thought that was funny

[arctic badger]

On I wanna join but I don’t gots link lmao 😩

[toxic sparrow]

Ye i will as soon as i am not in public places

Nice jay

[cosmic torrent]

Is it normal to not have the things you have in the live version on beta even if you’re signed in with the same acct?

[lusty light]

What if I sit in beta lobby and see who spots me

[rustic imp]

yes

[hybrid wedge]

Yes

!betalive

[gilded parrot]

Beta and Live versions of Sky are completely separate apps. Progress in one has no effect on progress in another.

[orchid nexus]

you're not signed in with the same account. you're signed into a different game.

[obtuse plinth]

I really wish one of my friends got beta so I didn’t have to be alone

[full tusk]

me just getting ready to join the beta

ok im redy to play beta :D

[quaint onyx]

Used to be newbie badges just meant "Warning: Android player. Expect crashes"

[hybrid wedge]

@obtuse plinth Perfect time to make new friends!

[narrow valley]

wow the "forge a light tribute" shadow overlay is really persistent

[full tusk]

like me :)

[crisp plinth]

Smh pyro send me a qr

[toxic sparrow]

Also i would think every newbie is a prolive player since its beta for a well known game

[orchid nexus]

make friends and you won't be alone...

[full tusk]

same

or else

!!!!

jks

[crisp plinth]

[full tusk]

plz do tho i need more friends

[hybrid wedge]

@toxic sparrow not necessarily, a lot are android players who may not have been playing for very long

#beta-looking-for-group to recruit people here tho

[orchid nexus]

#beta-looking-for-group

too slow

[toxic sparrow]

I plan to keep friends close and my favourite friends closer cue dramatic cheesy music

[full tusk]

sees

[obtuse plinth]

Nagati got first from what I saw

[full tusk]

same

so um

😳

[hybrid wedge]

Only because Sera's waiting in beta home to fish for people ^^

[toxic sparrow]

I think they meant they were too slow not the other way around

[full tusk]

ok bye playing beta will come back soon

[crisp igloo]

Newbies who add me as friend makes me feel lOVed

[nova swift]

I just got beta!

[orchid nexus]

important caveat about beta: it may or may not happen, but the company has reset player progress, and may do so any time they choose.

[runic pendant]

Yass I was able to get in beta as well!

[hybrid wedge]

When me and Alexdolly and Seraph say don't get attached--trust us on that one

[crisp plinth]

Don't care too much about wings or cosmetics in beta

[runic pendant]

Just love this game too much, I’m happy to be able to play both live and beta now

[crisp igloo]

@hybrid wedge ITS TOO LATE

[nova swift]

I’m just happy to play

[crisp plinth]

If you do make close friends in beta i would try to add them in live too

[runic pendant]

Good to know haha

[lusty light]

I had to be a moth 3 times

[crisp igloo]

im happy alot of ppl are joining beta

[lusty light]

Once for limited live, once for beta, once when beta reset

[narrow valley]

aw heck, the "sorry no" spirit was the one behind the prairie gate

[orchid nexus]

pre-live beta players lost year+ old progress, friend lists, everything. not everyone was happy about that.

[runic pendant]

Omg Dx

[narrow valley]

I was hoping to do a 100% Isle spirit family reunion cutscene

[lusty light]

I harassed my friends in beta to give me hearts to give me my chibi mask and Afro puffs immediately

[crisp igloo]

@orchid nexus ik :(

[lusty light]

I got it in 2 days

[rustic imp]

I can drag you in @narrow valley

[hybrid wedge]

We didn't lose friend lists in beta, just progress with friends. But no friend stuff was transferred to live. That hurt a bit ^^;

[crisp igloo]

Never experienced live but damn

[orchid nexus]

oh that's right, we didn't lose friends

[lusty light]

If anyone wants to add me I’ll be in beta home

Wearing my usual outfit

It’ll be like where’s Waldo

[spark lance]

[arctic pecan]

hehe good luck finding Seraph!

[arctic badger]

It says slots are full for beta which I understand. I don’t even have a link at all to try to enter in test flight

[rustic imp]

Where's waldo among the the thousands of home instances....

[narrow valley]

wait, let's see if I can skip Isle temple as a pseudo-moth

[arctic badger]

Waldo lol

[sonic apex]

now in beta

[lusty light]

@arctic badger the link was removed because it’s full

[quaint onyx]

Android players' reaction: "Wait, what about us? Were we not good enough for you? We'll change! Please! We'll be better!"

[spark lance]

Did everyone that joined beta data and stuff reset?

[arctic badger]

oh okay I appreciate that ❤️

[crisp igloo]

@spark lance yup

[sonic apex]

Only for beta version

[spark lance]

Ok

[obtuse plinth]

Do you lose candles you bought?

[orchid nexus]

no, it's not reset. it's a different game

[hybrid wedge]

Progress starts from zero in beta

[obtuse plinth]

When they reset it?

[tall sigil]

Wait even the older beta reset?

[hybrid wedge]

No

[lusty light]

You don’t buy anything because it’s beta

[tall sigil]

Oh

[hidden pivot]

theres a little baby cotton ball...

[hybrid wedge]

New players are just starting from scratch

[tall sigil]

I was shook for a sec there

[obtuse plinth]

I mean when they reset the beta progress

[white garnet]

is there anything different with beta rn?

[hidden pivot]

i am sorry baby cotton ball but i have to report you

[tall sigil]

Thanks mods

[narrow valley]

no belonging season

[lusty light]

There’s shepherd and newbie badges

That’s it

[narrow valley]

it's over in beta

[white garnet]

wack

[orchid nexus]

yes when there was a reset, it was all collectibles and currency

[lusty light]

The belonging season ended like a week ago

[spark lance]

I suppose now if the stuff we have In Beta will go in when it’s over... right?

[lusty light]

It was 20 days or so

[orchid nexus]

no

[crisp igloo]

I manage to get all the emotes except the campfire-

[hybrid wedge]

Nothing in beta goes anywhere

[tall sigil]

Everything in beta stays in beta

[hybrid wedge]

It stays in beta til the devs need to remove it for some reason

[spark lance]

I mean like the stuff we buy and everything we get

[narrow valley]

muahaha smell ya later Isle elder not returning these spirits just yet

[crisp plinth]

The only place beta stuff goes is to the void when it is reset

[orchid nexus]

no

[white garnet]

what goes on in beta stays in beta

[lusty light]

You can’t buy anything it’s free

[spark lance]

For our account

Oh

[orchid nexus]

it stays in beta

[hybrid wedge]

!betalive

[gilded parrot]

Beta and Live versions of Sky are completely separate apps. Progress in one has no effect on progress in another.

[teal hearth]

dang 😔

imma be stuck as a moth for a good while HAHA

[tall sigil]

Everything you buy in beta is free

[teal hearth]

i missed being tall

[orchid nexus]

anything in beta that says $money doesn't actually cost

[white garnet]

oh wack

[full tusk]

i just broke the beta its only been like 5 minutes

[obtuse plinth]

I’m the first moth to get into the 8 player puzzle room I bet ya

[full tusk]

wow

[orchid nexus]

but be sure you're not in the live game before you go on a spending spree xD

[sonic apex]

Not really…

[full tusk]

wait

[tall sigil]

Yes

[full tusk]

so i can waste fake money on cosmetics?!

[lusty light]

Yes

[orchid nexus]

not really tho

[full tusk]

ok

[orchid nexus]

you can't buy candles

[tall sigil]

Yeah just buy everything in shop in beta

[full tusk]

o

[hybrid wedge]

regular cosmetics still cost hearts the same as in live

[sonic apex]

So. Has anyone else had to reset after getting first cape?

[full tusk]

👀

[hybrid wedge]

the in-game shop also doesn't have the winter pack, for example

[obtuse plinth]

You can buy the starter pack, the one with the orange cape

[tall sigil]

And founders if you get in the|| office||

[full tusk]

hmm i could do that

[west zealot]

After an hour and 15 minutes, it’s half downloaded!

[teal hearth]

gl bro

i just bought the cape it’s p nice

[west zealot]

Im just planning on playing it tomorrow

[old matrix]

Gl bro,, must suck to have bad WiFi

[obtuse plinth]

Chibi: walks into 8 player puzzle
Me + 4 Moths: HARASS THE CHIBI

[spark lance]

Where do I report minor bugs that ain’t really screenshottable? Unlocked daylight, tried to go home cus I have to brb, game crashed, when I come back I’m at the end of isle again

[gleaming canyon]

that guard shield with the heart above players is interesting

[old matrix]

Wait, can you get the founder cape?

[teal hearth]

so i assume its like a reset every new betA?

[hybrid wedge]

@spark lance #beta-bugs-ios

[spark lance]

Ty

[hybrid wedge]

Yes ott

[rustic imp]

yes you can get founders cape

[narrow valley]

oh my stars, the first "forge a light tribute" prompt even lasts after you reboot the game They REALLY want me to forge a candle

[hybrid wedge]

!betalive

[orchid nexus]

report bugs in the bur reporting channel screenshots are not required

[gilded parrot]

Beta and Live versions of Sky are completely separate apps. Progress/purchases in one have no effect on progress/purchases in another.

[gleaming canyon]

is that just to note that you can light people to see them?

[teal hearth]

Oh thank you!

[wanton isle]

How do I get my beta cape?

[lusty light]

!betareward

[gilded parrot]

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

[wanton isle]

Ah okay

[teal hearth]

neato since i see some people with previous stuff 👀

[hybrid wedge]

You can get founders cape in the secret area same as in live though

[spark lance]

Isn’t it like $30?

[west zealot]

Aww

[spark lance]

Oh well

[hybrid wedge]

@teal hearth There are also beta players who have been playing for longer than an hour ^^

[orchid nexus]

in beta it's free

[rustic imp]

It will say it costs money but its free

[spark lance]

No need to be mean

[hybrid wedge]

No one's being mean

[old matrix]

I’m just glad to get a beta slot!

[narrow valley]

oh noes I didn't unlock the prairie gate because I completely skipped Isle's temple

[spark lance]

Same

[hidden pivot]

rip little snowball

[spark lance]

Wait how

[narrow valley]

Isle elder's revenge

[gleaming canyon]

anyone else notice the green yellow shield with heart above players?

[spark lance]

Lmao

[lusty light]

Newbie badge

[gleaming canyon]

ohhh

[lusty light]

🔰

[hybrid wedge]

@gleaming canyon it shows who beginners are

[orchid nexus]

play like a newb, learn lessons the hard way like a newb!

[hybrid wedge]

There's should be an info blurb on them, view your favorites constellation then look at the icons in the upper right corner

[quaint onyx]

Aka, a False flag operation

[obtuse plinth]

I feel so weird being normal size again

[round hornet]

Same

Finding old spirits brings back memories

A little

What were we talking about

[full tusk]

me casually reporting a bug

[lunar dome]

Is the shop suppose to be empty? Its my second time joining beta again and its still the same: only a giant question mark 😅

[narrow valley]

and I'm not just normal size, my player's randomly given birth height is tall

[hidden pivot]

@simple willow shh the spirit is communicating

[orchid nexus]

yes, the shop is supposed to be empty

[lunar dome]

Tho I did manage to get the founders cape when a friend took me to office

[hidden pivot]

they want to be friends

[lunar dome]

Ah okay thank you

[round hornet]

I want a founders cape

[full tusk]

this game is so entertaining and so unique omg 😍

[simple willow]

Lol sureeee if that’s the case then😂

[narrow valley]

as I'm a short or chibi skykid on live, being taller than average is very unusual for me

[orchid nexus]

very early beta had candles in the shop and too many people bought like one hundred billion candles muahahaha!! so that was shut down

[lunar dome]

Samee, makes my chara feel heavy to move hahaha

[hidden pivot]

ME

[lunar dome]

Ohmhgod hahaha

[gaunt sinew]

Lmao been so long since I’ve played tol child again

[hidden pivot]

i was planning on that but

[lunar dome]

I’d probably be one of those spamming to get millions of candles 😂😂😂

[hidden pivot]

to my disappointment the shop was empty

[lunar dome]

It’d be the only time Ill feel rich LMAO

[round hornet]

Like my life

Heh

[narrow valley]

my tall player's so floaty aaaa

[simple willow]

Will android and iOS be cross platform???? I wonder

[full tusk]

i got to be short and im so happyyyy

[round hornet]

That'd be lit

[rustic imp]

yes cross play

[hidden pivot]

me: "heck yeah imma be cute in 0.2 seconds"
the shop: "?"

[round hornet]

Lmao

[lunar dome]

LMAOO

[simple willow]

The shop: Nini?

[toxic sparrow]

Shop?

[hidden pivot]

the shop vibe checked me

[toxic sparrow]

Oh oh nvm

[full tusk]

the shop is just like 'i am confusion'

[hidden pivot]

the shop said "ight imma head out"

[toxic sparrow]

New shop who dis

[round hornet]

Now i gotta make a meme of that

[full tusk]

tbh i feel like the shop vibe checked itself 💀

[hidden pivot]

what if you wanted to be rich and cute 😳✌️🎵😏 but then the shop 💰 said sike 😭😬🙃

[obtuse plinth]

*casually crashes*

[round hornet]

Dang it sky yall made me stay up later than i should be.. I got school my dudes/dudettes

[narrow valley]

ok so my plan of "unlock prairie without going inside isle's temple" fell through, I made it, but the home space gate doesn't unlock so I'm taking the next step and going to forest without Isle

[remote sedge]

Where is the link to the beta testimg? Anyone know?

[obtuse plinth]

Apparently going into Forest immediately after Prairie is a no go

[lusty light]

@remote sedge it’s full now

[round hornet]

In #beta-announcements

[remote sedge]

Aaa

[round hornet]

Yea

[narrow valley]

maybe even without prairie temple completion if I exit oob

[orchid nexus]

crossplay questions: android and iOS are *currently crossplay, you can also move seamlessly between platforms

[round hornet]

Alex what is your pfp

[orchid nexus]

[lusty light]

It’s Alex

[orchid nexus]

it's me

[narrow valley]

it's you

[round hornet]

I mean is that a barbaric pig playing on a pc

That represents u

[orchid nexus]

that's a sky child being a mod, mashing keys

[hybrid wedge]

That's an awesome sky kid that ShiraCheshire drew

[narrow valley]

so I'm just going to casually play Sky wrong

[round hornet]

Reminds me of a youtuber raging in a game

[orchid nexus]

what is "wrong?"

[obtuse plinth]

Not as intended?

[spark lance]

Is the sky beta full already??

[orchid nexus]

yes

[round hornet]

Yea

[crisp igloo]

@spark lance yes and its sad

[spark lance]

oof

[narrow valley]

Not forging my first candle, Ignoring Isle elder and going to prairie, intending to skip prairie elder as well

[obtuse plinth]

Oh god, Forest without an umbrella, I’m gonna die

[round hornet]

dont be sad bc sad spelled backwards is das and das not good

[crisp igloo]

Das sad

[obtuse plinth]

Das hot

[orchid nexus]

you don't have to try too hard to break things. lots of people play that way by accident their first time through 😄

[spark lance]

Well I’m just disappointed for the people who didn’t get it :c

[quaint onyx]

@narrow valley Go for a capeless run! Or a zero-emote run. That's hardmode

[round hornet]

Think of it as a black friday sale

[narrow valley]

My home portals might not open thanks to my skips

[round hornet]

New jordans that cost 2 dollars

No

Free

[teal hearth]

yeehaw i got the first cape

[obtuse plinth]

My favourite part about playing is when you crash

[orchid nexus]

and nobody has a quota for number of bugs reported. this isn't QA, it's beta! sometimes what TGC needs from beta is just raw data. seeing patterns of normal behavior.

[round hornet]

QA?

[narrow valley]

Quality Assurance

[round hornet]

Ohhh

TGC?

[orchid nexus]

i.e. the people who are paid to find and document bugs

[obtuse plinth]

ThatGameCompany

[round hornet]

Ohhh

[small stone]

Now that I Actaully understand how candles and hearts work I haven’t spent any of friends

[narrow valley]

like the non-pizza Scott

[small stone]

OoP

[orchid nexus]

if you're not using them to make friends... maybe you don't actually know how they work

[round hornet]

It took me awhile to realize the beta app and sky app were separate

So i thought my data was gone

[hybrid wedge]

What if I told you....that candles and hearts are for friends?

[small stone]

i don’t need friend they disappoint me

[orchid nexus]

entirely separate. and will never transfer

[spark lance]

So everything is free In the beta?

[small stone]

unless it’s in the live game yes I will drag my friends through wasteland and through Eden

[orchid nexus]

you can not spend real money in beta

[full tusk]

its so hard for me to detach from people in sky because if i want to do something else i dont know how to convey i want to and i feel bad for leaving them behind

[small stone]

Oof

[round hornet]

So everything is... Not free?

[full tusk]

me casually dumping my feelings in here

[spark lance]

What about candles on spirits and stuff like that

[narrow valley]

no candle packs

[small stone]

ye

[orchid nexus]

anything with a price tag on it costs only pretend money

[hybrid wedge]

!betacost @round hornet But cosmetics unlocked with candles and hearts are the same as in live

[gilded parrot]

Everything in beta is free, so nothing in the in-game store costs actual money.

[orchid nexus]

and any pricetag may change in the live version

[small stone]

oh lawd it’s sentient again

[round hornet]

Ohhhh

[old matrix]

Is it possible for you to get kicked out of the beta? Like, is there a required amount of time usage per day?

[full tusk]

i

[orchid nexus]

nobody is kicked out of beta

[small stone]

I see that epithet pfp

[narrow valley]

the beta "IAP" are paid in monopoly money

[old matrix]

heck yeah ee

[orchid nexus]

but if you decide you're done, you can do everyone a favor and press the "stop testing" button in testflight

[fervent stirrup]

I was wondering, what does the ‘expires in 90 days’ mean?

[small stone]

c r I m e

[round hornet]

That would pikachu shock everyone if someone got kicked from beta

[small stone]

You mean

[old matrix]

Ok!! I just wanted to know just in case I have a busy day,, I don’t wanna get kicked

[small stone]

Krill shocked face

[orchid nexus]

the "stop testing" button will make you lose beta access permanently

[full tusk]

imagine if krill could actually make faces

[round hornet]

And i oop

[simple willow]

Does anybody else have an orange dot beside the beta game for iOS????

[old matrix]

The krill spots you for the tenth time and it just looks disappointed

[small stone]

Ye

[full tusk]

you just see a krill staring at you with a demonic smile before it vibe checks the stars out of you

[spark lance]

Oooh so you still have to get capes and stuff like that with candles?

[fervent stirrup]

What does the ‘expires in 90 days’ mean?

[small stone]

my disappointment is immeasurabl

[full tusk]

lmaoo

[round hornet]

Krill sounds like krill on the grill but to chill to feel the real deal

[small stone]

I can’t spell today

[full tusk]

i

[orchid nexus]

that means the given build expires in 90 days. not beta access

[full tusk]

thats a poem periodt

[fervent stirrup]

Oooh okay

Thank you I was worried

[small stone]

Dank is dropping bars

[white igloo]

Hey also, don’t forget that the starter packs are free for beta testers! Orange cape Moths!

[orchid nexus]

you can basically ignore the "90 days" message

[round hornet]

Lmao

[full tusk]

krill on the grill
too chill to
feel the real deal

[quaint onyx]

Furthest I got was to the forest temple gate on a zero emote run. Anyone who beats me gets a free hamburger of your choice

[round hornet]

Yesss

[full tusk]

periodt

wOrD

[small stone]

What would cooked krill taste like

[full tusk]

uhh

[old matrix]

Krispy

[full tusk]

krill jerky

[round hornet]

Hamburger? Sir

[small stone]

kirllburger

[round hornet]

I say cheeseburger

[full tusk]

[small stone]

sir this is a wendys

[old matrix]

Just like the toasted crabs in the wasteland

🅱️orger

[orchid nexus]

tastes like shrimp, obvs

[small stone]

N o

[full tusk]

id buy the krill jerky and eat it tbh

[small stone]

tempura

[unique stirrup]

they probably taste like burnt shrimp

[small stone]

I’d still eat it tho

[quaint onyx]

They taste like nightmares and broken dreams

[full tusk]

are krill just shrimp on steroids

[orchid nexus]

shrimp soaked in crude oil, lightly burned

[round hornet]

Krill with the dill pickle on the side of a happy meal

[full tusk]

LOL

[round hornet]

Bam

[small stone]

Finally

Some good hecking food

[full tusk]

[full tusk]

[narrow valley]

[lusty light]

@spark lance if the devs need more testers

[full tusk]

[narrow valley]

so keep talking about crispy fried krill

[round hornet]

Im dead

[full tusk]

Crushed his dreams and hope

[orchid nexus]

#general-sky-discussion is what I meant

[narrow valley]

(im kidding pls don't smite me)

[full tusk]

ok

[orchid nexus]

if we're done talking about beta...

[round hornet]

Sorry we was rapping about krill

[full tusk]

last time to check i post the rap in #completed-sky-fanart-and-creations rite

im not tryna get krilled here

[round hornet]

So lets make a deal

[full tusk]

yes

[round hornet]

Heheeee

[orchid nexus]

this isn't the general riff raff channel, this is where the important bet work gets done. serious business

[quaint onyx]

Hey, I had to pull teeth to get any kind of responses here! Just happy to see life

[hidden wagon]

New here. Does your “regular” Sky profile/character transfer into the beta? Am I really starting from scratch?

[quaint onyx]

Serious mode engaged

[arctic pecan]

start from scratch my friend!

Gonna need to do it all over for Beta
@hidden wagon

[orchid nexus]

@spark lance that means the people who get there first, get access. it's not a line you wait in and there's no guarantee

[round hornet]

I hurried and got beta in time finally

[simple willow]

Same lol

[astral surge]

i sae the notif as i was lutting my phone down lol

[round hornet]

Lmao

[lusty light]

!betalive @hidden wagon

[gilded parrot]

Beta and Live versions of Sky are completely separate apps. Progress/purchases in one have no effect on progress/purchases in another.

[round hornet]

Welp

[orchid nexus]

#betalife

[round hornet]

#mysociallife

[obtuse plinth]

Gotta be kool

#betalyfe

[quaint onyx]

Buy an Android and wait, invites have been happening more frequently for droid

[rustic imp]

That's cause it needs more testing

[orchid nexus]

or... if you have an iOS device, just play the live game.

beta always goes cold between updates

[arctic pecan]

brrrr

[rustic imp]

and its quite small

compared to live

[quaint onyx]

Cozy, not cold

[obtuse plinth]

How many beta members are there?

[orchid nexus]

cold. sometimes you struggle to find anyone

[narrow valley]

get your prairie and vault teamwork spirits while you still can

[orchid nexus]

beta players? I don't know if we've been given a recent count of active beta players

[arctic pecan]

hmm usually the beta servers relatively small compared to the live one

[simple willow]

How long do you have to stay inactive before they kick you from being part of the Beta??

[quaint onyx]

I mean, sure, just because nobody's burned a two man plant in a couple of weeks...

Means you get to know the other people/person playing that much better!

[round hornet]

Crap i forgot i have school tmrw i swear playing games is like a curse these days

[narrow valley]

also makes that skill of burning that big forest plant over the cry emote on your own very practical

[quaint onyx]

If you guys get the plant in the krill swamp, I think that'll be a beta first

[round hornet]

I feel like rapping a whole verse on krill only

But thats just meee

[spark lance]

How do I get beta cape if I’m in beta?

the starter pack is free in beta in shop

Ok thx

not beta cape but u know free cape

[quaint onyx]

Since you guys are starting from scratch, play differently this time.

[round hornet]

[spark lance]

Huh what

[fresh quiver]

Oh I've gotten the krill swamp plant in beta

[quaint onyx]

Try with headphones, first off

[radiant drum]

You can’t get the beta cape anymore, but you can get the founders cape

[round hornet]

I literally searched everywhere in the beta

[spark lance]

Oh Ight

[round hornet]

How does one get a founders cape

[spark lance]

I need to go to the ||office|| and now it’s free?

[fresh quiver]

Yes

[quaint onyx]

Yes and yes

[spark lance]

Ok thx

[round hornet]

The office???

Man im so lost

Y'all in whole nother star constellation

[radiant drum]

||the office|| is a secret level

[gleaming canyon]

free only in beta right

[radiant drum]

Maybe someone that knows can take you there 👀

Yes, everything that would cost real money is free in beta

[round hornet]

BET

Ight

[obtuse plinth]

Oh really?

That’s noice

So is the founder’s cape free or do you still have to buy it?

[wanton lichen]

How do I join the beta

[gilded parrot]

The iOS and Android betas are full at the moment, @wanton lichen. To join future beta invite waves, watch for announcements in #beta-announcements! Give yourself the beta role here by tapping the in #old-𝚛ules to be notified of important updates.

[wanton lichen]

Wow

[radiant drum]

You have to “buy” the cape, but you don’t spend actual money on it

[obtuse plinth]

Pog

[radiant drum]

Same for the adventure pass and the starter pack

[terse quail]

If we get the founder’s cape in beta, do we get it in the live version too?

[gilded parrot]

Beta and Live versions of Sky are completely separate apps. Progress/purchases in one have no effect on progress/purchases in another.

[obtuse plinth]

!betalive

[terse quail]

Thank you!

[obtuse plinth]

Been here for like 2 hours and already know the command

[spark lance]

Oof

[terse quail]

And does anyone have a yellow dot in front of the app’s name? What does that mean?

[radiant drum]

It means it’s a TestFlight app

[terse quail]

Oh i see! Thank youuu

[obtuse plinth]

Oh wow, you actually don’t spend money on things, POG

[narrow valley]

did I suddenly get sent to Home (without prairie gate unlocked) because Sky hadn't downloaded Forest yet because I skipped Isle elder and because I nearly skipped Prairie elder too

[orchid nexus]

yellow dot by the app might be mustard. try licking it off.

[obtuse plinth]

I didn’t skip them and crashed because of it

[narrow valley]

ok I'm sick of playing Sky with eternal GUI shadow so I'm forging that candle

[orchid nexus]

a real beta tester would take that all the way through eden

[obtuse plinth]

Is that a challenge?

[narrow valley]

PFFFF

[orchid nexus]

no, that's a joke because there's no "real beta tester"

[obtuse plinth]

We’re all fake

[toxic sparrow]

Whats a beta tester

Who knows

Were all fakes

[obtuse plinth]

Fake news

[orchid nexus]

nothing sets one beta player apart from another. play one way or another. all make contributions.

[narrow valley]

that's a really clingy isle cutscene LOL i was mid air, not even headed toward the cliff yet the cutscene decided 'no you're over here now'

also your first star will force you to stay put, even if it's not the first star

as rock climbing proves

[storm zinc]

Is there a good place to learn more about playing beta?

[hybrid wedge]

@storm zinc it's the same as playing live, but be sure to regularly report bugs that you find and give feedback too

[storm zinc]

@hybrid wedge Ok good to know I didn't know the beta version was seperate from the other app so my other progress wouldn't transfer over. So basically starting over again.

[hybrid wedge]

Yep

On the other hand, every IAP in beta is free, so you can get the starter pack and founders cape without paying actual money

[storm zinc]

@hybrid wedge What the!!! Omg thats so nice!

[hybrid wedge]

Yeah it's pretty awesome ^^

[strange rose]

For me it says it cost

[toxic sparrow]

Would there be access to past season stuff?

[hybrid wedge]

Nope

[inland flame]

It might say it costs but when you “buy” it costs no actual money @strange rose

[toxic sparrow]

Ah

[strange rose]

Let me try lol

[orchid nexus]

can confirm. I have spent lots of fake money in beta.

[narrow valley]

gonna attempt to skip prairie elder as well: I had to enter the temple to reach a point where i can skip, but now for the test of whether I can make the flight with only 4 wedges

[strange rose]

Worked 👍

[hybrid wedge]

I went fake broke buying all that stuff with my fake money

[empty inlet]

I spent that $30 in beta very joyfully

[narrow valley]

tgc accepts monopoly money for beta purchases

[storm zinc]

When the 90 day trial is over and If I do beta again will the game restart or save my progress from the last beta testing

[empty inlet]

The time reset when the game updates

[narrow valley]

4 wedges is enough to reach forest without interacting with prairie elder jfdhgkdjhs

[strange rose]

And how ppl got their beta stuff from last seasons into live?

[empty inlet]

90 days left for this build only

[remote wagon]

darnit, the beta admissions were available earlier... this isnt fair i was doing an essay >:[
sorry just a mini rant, ive been waiting ages to get into ios beta

[empty inlet]

Beta and live are totally separated

[gilded parrot]

Beta and Live versions of Sky are completely separate apps. Progress/purchases in one have no effect on progress/purchases in another.

[radiant drum]

!betalive @strange rose

[hybrid wedge]

@strange rose Some players have been on beta since June, so they were able to get items from previous seasons that were tested there

[remote wagon]

then how come peoples stuff from beta come over to live....

[narrow valley]

now I have the wrath of two elders on my lanky skykid body

[empty inlet]

Wdym stuff from beta

The beta cape?

[radiant drum]

@remote wagon sorry to hear that :( the first come first serve basis is the best way to ensure it’s fair, but it can be tough like that

[remote wagon]

yeah

[radiant drum]

The beta cape was awarded both in beta and live separately to beta players before global launch

Nothing was transferred

[remote wagon]

and mhm... Ive been playing all year (give or take some months), been around since season of gratitude and i havent been able to get into beta

i see, i see

[narrow valley]

now I wonder, what would happen if you reached forest on just one winged light?

[storm zinc]

With playing beta are you only seeing players that are playing the beta version too or is it including the "Live" gamers as well when in the beta app.

[hybrid wedge]

@storm zinc 100% beta only

[remote wagon]

i wish i knew sky existed sooner

[hybrid wedge]

!betalive

[gilded parrot]

Beta and Live versions of Sky are completely separate apps. Progress/purchases in one have no effect on progress/purchases in another.

[empty inlet]

As we talked about it above, beta and live are totally separated

[narrow valley]

so i just saw someone capeless in forest

[modest crag]

Not even in hidden forest yet and I can already tell being beta is somehow even better than the main game

Even if I start all progress again...

[radiant drum]

How so?

Right now beta and live are pretty similar, as we just got a patch in live

[orchid nexus]

generally speaking, it's the same game a lot of the time, but with brief periods of beta being really broken.

sometimes experiments are tried in beta, like the shepherd/moth badge thing, that don't make it to live, or go through many different forms

but otherwise it's mostly the same. and right now beta is more similar to live than usual

[obtuse plinth]

The moth badge thing is a really good idea tbh, it just needs explaining because as a Moth I had no idea what it was

[dry pivot]

You see the moth badge on your head too?

[obtuse plinth]

I see the moth badge on other people’s heads

[dry pivot]

i see

[fervent stirrup]

What’s the moth badge?

I’ve made it to Valley so far in beta and have no idea what the moth badge is I’m lost-

[dry pivot]

🔰 moth (newbie) badge

[cold wolf]

Love that everything is free

[dire ibex]

And how does it look like? I feel dumb

[cold wolf]

I rushed to buy the harp

[dry pivot]

shown on a newbie's head, but I don't know when theyll lose that badge

looks like this -> 🔰

[cold wolf]

Which I found out that it’s broken when the music is playing in background

[dire ibex]

Oh that’s it? O.O

[fervent stirrup]

Oooooh

[dire ibex]

Welp I’ve been playing since September but haven’t seen any

[fervent stirrup]

I’m big dumb. Thank you.

[dry pivot]

if you play beta right now you may see one I guess? but somehow i see no badge on anyone at Home in beta rn

[fervent stirrup]

I only see it when going to light someone candle

Other than that it’s not there

[narrow valley]

OH NO

[dire ibex]

Aahhh okay. I can never make it in to beta so that might be a problem lmao. Although I’m always trying 😦

[grim zinc]

Is everything literally free? Candle exchanges or just IAPs?

[obtuse plinth]

IAPs are free

[narrow valley]

capeless was forced to stand in the rain and got really hurt

they're ok now

[grim zinc]

poor boy,,

[fervent stirrup]

When seasonal passes come out in beta are they free?

[dry pivot]

yup

[tame iris]

Waited for few month and I miss the open beta slot. Damn me.

[fervent stirrup]

Nice!

[inner arch]

Are newbies still called Brownies?

[grim zinc]

Moths.

[arctic pecan]

Mostly Moths

[dry pivot]

theyve been called brownies?? I love that

[fervent stirrup]

I’ve never heard the term brownies before but I love it

[obtuse plinth]

Brownies is racist

[grim zinc]

No I think they’re referring to the fairy myth

[inner arch]

Like Girl Scout Brownies

[arctic pecan]

foooood

[mortal lantern]

Or their cape color lmao

[grim zinc]

yeah ^^

[obtuse plinth]

Categorising them on their cape colour smh

[dry pivot]

oh sorry I was only thinking about the cake

[inner arch]

Who wear brown

[arctic pecan]

oh same Mochi

[grim zinc]

I hated Girl Scouts smh

[inner arch]

Aww

I was a wee Brownie

We danced around a toadstool

[grim zinc]

I wish I could’ve enjoyed it more but nobody was really fond of me ;(((

[inner arch]

:(((

[grim zinc]

I hated that troop so much

man I wish I could just moth away

become a moth in sky to avenge younger me from the horrors of Girl Scouts

[inner arch]

Everyone besides the Brownies in my primary / elementary school thought we were super uncool.

I am so sorry about your experience!

[grim zinc]

It’s fine it’s all in the past 👀

[obtuse plinth]

I’m supposed to be farming in Live but I’m too busy making friends in Beta

[grim zinc]

The past is gone, I am successfully becoming the best moth I can be, rocking my brown cape in the live servers even if I’m 4 hearts away from black

How many slots were there exactly for beta ?

[slow pollen]

Hey folks... I saw something about 90 days - do we get booted from beta?

[arctic pecan]

nope

[narrow valley]

oh MY LORD i broke the sequence

[safe swan]

Foood

[slow pollen]

Neat.

[narrow valley]

so the elder/return to constellation scenes are tied to opening the home warps

so skipping them skips opening the following portals

[obtuse plinth]

Lol

A master Beta tester

[safe swan]

I think I saw pyro for a sec

Am not sure

[obtuse plinth]

Had the game for something like 4 hours and already breaking the game

Send a picture of yourself @safe swan

[safe swan]

Okay

It’ll take some time

[limber bone]

they posted the update at 3 am for me

[short lava]

Same case here, just woke up 3 hours after the release and it’s already full

[limber bone]

let's wait another month for them to open the slots

i guess

[short lava]

Uuugh ik

[karmic musk]

im a little confused right now.. I can't seem to update sky beta. I tried to update it but testflight doesn't show the app

[limber bone]

i hate timezones

[inner arch]

Oh nooo

[empty inlet]

I would rather not work at 3 am

[blazing sail]

How did you download it in the first place if it’s not snowing in the app?

[narrow valley]

hoping this is a start to a bunch of small ios beta openings so ios beta can reopen to others soon

[lusty light]

They only open beta when there’s a need for more testers

And there’s a hard cap of 10k testers for TestFlight as a whole

[narrow valley]

yeah...

[unique stirrup]

debating on using some resize potions, currently have 9
should i use 2 or 3? none? just one?

[tame musk]

Are you trying to reach a certain height?

Or is it just for the luls

[limber bone]

depends on the size and what size you want to get

[unique stirrup]

i wanna be tall

beeeg

[rocky stone]

IM SCREAMING I MISSED ITTTTTTT

[limber bone]

@rocky stone hey i feel ya

[lapis plaza]

sa m e

[tame musk]

Well each potion is random so just keep trying till you reach tall height 😆

[unique stirrup]

rip to those that missed it

[karmic musk]

ive been updating mine just fine before but now it doesn't show it on testflight..

[unique stirrup]

i have 9 though at least wanna save some

[limber bone]

Please dear Ktjn, next time post the "Join beta" link at 3am for Americans, and 6pm for Europeans

[tame musk]

Well I mean you won’t know which height you will get so it doesn’t matter how much you use if you are trying to reach a certain height. 😆

[karmic musk]

I still have the app and all, and I did get a notification that there's another build but I can't even update it

[unique stirrup]

true that

mmm ima use 3 and see what i get

if i'm small i'm using a 4th one

[tame musk]

Good luck!

[unique stirrup]

ty

[limber bone]

@karmic musk try swiping down in testflight

[unique stirrup]

oh my, used the first one and went from semi-tall to pretty small.. going great so far pfpf

[faint gazelle]

just found out everything in beta is free

[limber bone]

i wish resize potion made me pretty smol and not a mid sized grandpa

[karmic musk]

@limber bone it says no apps available to test ;-;

[faint gazelle]

going frenzie

[limber bone]

@karmic musk are you sure you have beta

[faint gazelle]

[karmic musk]

@limber bone im 100 percent sure, I was using it just fine last week, and I know I didn't click stop testing or anything

[limber bone]

[radiant drum]

Are you logged in to the right Apple ID on your device?

[karmic musk]

oh my god.. I think that's probably why

[wicked musk]

I have a dumb question, if you signed up for beta and get in, would you be able to get the beta cape for free? Haha how's that work...

[rustic imp]

!betareward

[gilded parrot]

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

[rustic imp]

The closest thing is the founders cape

Which you can get for free in beta. Stays in your beta game

[faint gazelle]

where do you get founders cape

[rustic imp]

You can only buy it in the secret area.

[wicked musk]

Right, it is free for purchase in beta right

[rustic imp]

Anything that would cost real money is free in beta

[hybrid relic]

In other words, can't i use the cape with a regular account?

[unique stirrup]

second resize potion down, got taller but am i the tallest height? i have no clue

[radiant drum]

Exactly zero

[rustic imp]

If you want it in live, it costs 30 bucks

[radiant drum]

Nothing in the beta version will transfer to live

[keen warren]

can anyone help us in Daylight

need 3 people more

[radiant drum]

You can ask for a group in #beta-looking-for-group ^^

[hybrid relic]

Thank you, Was saved Mirian.

[limber bone]

@unique stirrup i'll send u all possible heights in #screenshots-and-videos

[whole kraken]

How do we get the Season if Belonging rewards? The constellation isn’t even appearing in Beta.

[rustic imp]

The season already ended in beta

[whole kraken]

Aaawww

[rustic imp]

So you can’t get those items anymore

[whole kraken]

Darn

Okay, thank you! ^.^

[rustic imp]

Rip no more campfire

[whole kraken]

RIP

Of course I miss out on that DX

[agile summit]

mm is it just me or when i try to accept a friend's qr code (thru link), it sends me to the game but the friend confirmation window thing doesn't pop up

[rustic imp]

Well you aren’t missing out on much if you don’t get it in beta

[whole kraken]

Yeah, true 🤙🏻

[limber bone]

yeah that happens in live too, just be in game and open it again @agile summit

[rustic imp]

That’s what qr codes seem to do right now

Just snap a pic of the code and hit import image instead

[limber bone]

why

[agile summit]

i was in game, tried 3 times lol
i ended up using the camera to scan

[limber bone]

oop

[rustic imp]

The image thing definitely works. Did it two hours ago

[whole kraken]

Another question. So if we continue to stay active in beta, will it still expire for us and we’d have to rejoin quickly? Or how does that work?

[lusty light]

Bot read your message wrong

The devs will announce if they will revoke beta access

[karmic musk]

thank you so much for helping me guys 🙂 I forgotten I logged out of my  id

[rustic imp]

You get to play beta until the devs revoke access

[whole kraken]

Okay, thanks again! 🙂

[hybrid relic]

Can I ask another question?
Does the light blue cape in the beta version cost money?

[faint gazelle]

I see

[rustic imp]

Rejoining beta is the same process.

[radiant drum]

!betacost

[gilded parrot]

Everything in beta is free, so nothing in the in-game store costs actual money.

[narrow valley]

It's paid in monopoly board game money (it's free in beta)

[faint gazelle]

why are there additional slots? not because some beta players revoke? or does tgc need extra testers?

[lusty light]

TGC needed extra testers

[hybrid relic]

oh,Thank you 🙂

[faint gazelle]

nice

thanks

[rustic imp]

More people!

[faint gazelle]

@lusty light

[whole kraken]

🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

[faint gazelle]

how long does this beta testing lasts?

for each new season development?

[rustic imp]

As long as the devs need it!

[faint gazelle]

or...

ah ok

[rustic imp]

Which is pretty much all the time :V

[lusty light]

Beta will continue as long as the game is being worked on

Since we test every update

[faint gazelle]

got it

[rustic imp]

If the devs revoke beta access because new wave or something, you’ll have to sign up again

[faint gazelle]

new wave?

[rustic imp]

Like the new slots that opened up today

[lusty light]

They didn’t revoke access though

[faint gazelle]

ooww

okie

[rustic imp]

But everyone needs to

[limber bone]

me, just repeatedly spamming on "open in testflight" button hoping that someone would leave a slot while everybody talk

[lusty light]

If you were already in beta you didn’t have to press the link earlier

[faint gazelle]

ahhh I see

[radiant drum]

Only one time TGC revoked everyone’s access, so everyone needed to rejoin the beta that specific time

[faint gazelle]

good to know

[rustic imp]

Yep! Bad analogy

[radiant drum]

Unless they announce it no need to worry about it

[faint gazelle]

got it

[unique stirrup]

used up all my resize potions, i'm tiny

not too tiny at least

welp

[elder thicket]

I might have spawned as max height... definitely close.

[unique stirrup]

lucky

i still don't even know how to tell if i'm max height

i mean im obviously not at the moment but..

[elder thicket]

Someone posted a height chart in #screenshots-and-videos !

[unique stirrup]

yes.. and it's a bit helpful,

but i don't know what they're up against to check

pillar to a portal, but idk which

[elder thicket]

Theeee isle of dawn portal, I believe

On the left side of it.

[unique stirrup]

a lot more helpful, ty

[rustic imp]

Left side of isle of dawn portal

[timber elk]

Oh I have a good one give me a sec

[elder thicket]

I’m max height in the live version of the game, I kinda hoped to be small in beta

[narrow valley]

So it is possible to get 100% attendance on each End of Area cutscene even though Isle has a spirit behind a Prairie gate and Prairie has a spirit behind a Forest gate, because you can just not attend the elder shrine and fly on to the next area, returning when you have the required spirits

You can reset your checkpoints to get the Valley and Vault constellations completed before attending the shrine.

Forest can all be done in one go, no resets or world backtracking involved

And although Wasteland shipwreck is behind a Vault gate, you can enter via the pipe above it, which doesn't have a constellation gate

No handholding required

No extreme oob required

[drifting pumice]

How can we get the blue beta cape?

[undone mortar]

ah I’m so annoyed I just missed the chance to join beta lol

[white garnet]

you couldve only gotten it for original beta testing it hink

[rustic imp]

You can’t get beta cape, but you can get the very similar founders cape

[lusty light]

!betareward

[gilded parrot]

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

[rustic imp]

The founder’s cape is purchasable in the secret area

[undone mortar]

Yup

[white garnet]

handy thatskybot 👌

[drifting pumice]

Oh ok

The secret area is in the vault right?

[undone mortar]

Yes

[drifting pumice]

Also, is office still a thing?

[white garnet]

ya

[drifting pumice]

Ok good to know

Thanks for answering my questions

[white drift]

!betafaq

[gilded parrot]

The iOS and Android betas are full at the moment. To join future beta invite waves, watch for announcements in #beta-announcements! Give yourself the beta role here by tapping the in #old-𝚛ules to be notified of important updates.

[white drift]

it literally just said iOS is available but okay

[worldly mural]

||office|| should be spoiler tagged

[vapid drum]

Wooooooooooow mayhem on the channel

1800 missed messages

[obtuse plinth]

iOS got a Beta wave

[vapid drum]

I just noticed

Nice to see so many people want to play beta

In iOS

Should be a bit busier once again

[white drift]

I don’t understand what they want downloaded anyway, all I can find are plane games

[rustic imp]

Wow 1800.

It was crazy fast right after they opened slots, but that’s more messages than I expected

[lusty light]

@white drift iOS beta was available for maybe an hour, it wasn’t that many slots

[vapid drum]

Mostly the same questions over and over again

[lusty light]

The beta updates message was also updated to reflect that it’s full

[rustic imp]

Yea. New people

[white drift]

okay, I still don’t get what they want downloaded though, I want to get it so I can be ready for the next opening.

[lusty light]

TestFlight

[vapid drum]

Yes in iOS App Store

It’s a testing app from Apple

[lusty light]

When you click the invite link it takes you to the download page anyway

[white drift]

Well I was going to send a screenshot of the app I found to be sure it was the correct one but nevermind since you can’t send pictures here 🤦🏻‍♂️

[lusty light]

#beta-screenshots-videos

[vapid drum]

Goodmorning btw 🤗

[lusty light]

[vapid drum]

So I guess no European peeps joined since the wave was in the middle of the night

[narrow valley]

TestFlight is the generalized app for testing, and by opening the testing URL, it checks the app for open slots and grants you a download page for the game's beta app if the beta is open

[lusty light]

It’s actually 2 am here rob

[narrow valley]

TestFlight is a means of accessing the beta app, but it isn't the beta itself

[obtuse plinth]

Seraph, Sleep!

[narrow valley]

It's your beta drug dealer

[lusty light]

Noh

I’m an adult I can do what I want

[obtuse plinth]

You still need sleep

[lusty light]

Allegedly

[rustic imp]

What sleep?

[unique stirrup]

i hear people not sleeping

[river ravine]

What is this sleep you speak of?
Can I eat it!?

[narrow valley]

it's 2 am where I'm at too shh

[unique stirrup]

if you're a baku, you could probably eat sleep

wait they eat dreams

[river ravine]

Lol

[obtuse plinth]

If you don’t sleep you won’t be able to enjoy Sky to it’s fullest

[narrow valley]

ahh, so that's why there has been krill in my dreams

[lusty light]

I used to play sky until 4 am

[obtuse plinth]

Why??

[narrow valley]

Daily reset

Gotta get those quests done as early as possible

[timber elk]

is getting candles supposed to be so quick in beta ??

[rustic imp]

You get a whole candle for every new spirit

So it feels really fast in the beginning

[lusty light]

Because I like sky

[unique stirrup]

i may have stayed up to 5am playing sky once

[timber elk]

ohh ok

[lusty light]

I don’t farm like that

[narrow valley]

TestFlight can be confusing because with a name like that, you'd expect that to be the name of the Sky beta game itself, so you expect to see a Sky icon and images in search

But no, it's just a coincidence it has such a Sky-like name

[vapid drum]

Sera , I was already surprised seeing you here at this time 🤣

Well , technically it’s morning for you too

Whaaaaa , so many happy people on Facebook too 🤗

[lusty light]

It’s not morning u til the sun rises

[unique stirrup]

looks like i'm staying up to 2am on purpose this time

[vapid drum]

The sun is always up somewhere

[gleaming canyon]

||how do you get the space station tv to light up? is it random?||

[narrow valley]

So when you see TestFlight in your search results, you think you've stumbled across the wrong app, but that's exactly what you need to download to receive the Sky beta

It depends on the day

[rustic imp]

That’s a spoiler shadowforest

And yeah it’s one day out of a nine day rotation

[gleaming canyon]

ah

[lusty light]

It’s not a spoiler in the beta channels

[rustic imp]

Oh?

[lusty light]

Since it’s specially for beta testers

[rustic imp]

Ok!

So used to being in the main channels

[somber robin]

|| can I ask what that spoiler is about anyway I dont know what it refers to ||

[gleaming canyon]

something in that place that needs

[unique stirrup]

the ||office||!

[somber robin]

ooo I see, I really need to check that place out

can you go freely while in the beta test, or is it still blocked by cape?

[lusty light]

Still blocked by cape

But the founders cape is free

[somber robin]

ooo

so then in the beta, how do you obtain that?

[unique stirrup]

have someone with the cape take ya

or someone that alrea day has founders

already oof

i can't spell

[narrow valley]

All purchases in Sky beta are fake: they have a price tag, but they don't actually charge you anything

Consider them paid in fake money

[obtuse plinth]

Monopoly money

[somber robin]

ooo wonderful ill go ask in #beta-looking-for-group when I have a look through the beta

thanks guys youre all amazing

[hollow compass]

so, what exactly is it they want us to test now that there are more people in the beta?

[obtuse plinth]

Just play and find bugs and stuff

[somber robin]

I guess the new update, test things out, make sure everything doesn't break

[narrow valley]

buggy bugs

[obtuse plinth]

Give feedback on what they’re testing out

"Right now we don't have enough concurrent players on beta to get the data we need to fix some unexpected issues that cropped up in the 0.7.5 live patch from last week. Most notably the crash occurring in the graveyard area of Golden Wasteland." Quoted from Ktjn's earlier post

[hollow compass]

@obtuse plinth no, it says there was a specific reason for opening up the beta

[obtuse plinth]

What Mochi said

[hollow compass]

oh

I just got up and there were +100 messages I wasn't really going to scroll through for that

thanks!

(Also, I had no idea there had been crashes there. Oops.)

[dry pivot]

might be limited to specific devices? I was not experiencing the issue either

[rustic imp]

How many krills does it take to break the game

[dry pivot]

i lurked the graveyard today but still dont

[hollow compass]

...Ktjn is typing...

👀

We're between major updates, so right now the focus is to have people that are regularly logging in and playing the various levels to ensure things are running smoothly. Gathering crash data and whatnot is part of the process.

[hollow compass]

I try to log in every day, so I'll just continue doing that then

[lusty light]

I be minding my business in beta and crash

[vapid briar]

I don't mean like a full playthrough or anything wild, but if you've got a few minutes to spare to log in when we do new builds helps us immensely.

[lusty light]

Oh when I submit crash reports I do it though TestFlight, that is ok right lol

[hollow compass]

I always do that.

[lusty light]

Just making sure

[hollow compass]

I meant, I always check in and try to test anything specifically mentioned in the patch notes, or else just play one or two levels every day.

lol, it's a chore being a beta tester sometimes, I tell ya

but we loyal!

[faint gazelle]

[vapid briar]

Crash reports are gathered automatically, the testflight portion i think just gives us more details. I don't look at those reports personally, they go straight to the engineers.

[lusty light]

Oh cool I just wanted to make sure I was doing it the easiest way 🤧

I send feedback here but doing the email method in TestFlight would also be ok if I ever felt like doing that right ?

[hollow compass]

just remembered I went through Eden last time I played and now I have to regather all stars, so that's a good reason to replay all levels also

[lusty light]

I haven’t done eden in beta since before Halloween

[hollow compass]

there was an update lately and I wanted to check what was new, but it wasn't much

mostly minot details and windwalls

made a new friend, though!

[vapid briar]

And we appreciate it, truly. It's a big ask to have folks essentially play the same game twice, even more so to come in and submit reports and the like. It helps TGC as well as your fellow players.

[hollow compass]

oh, many of us have been around for a long time, so it's just ingrained in us, I think 😄

also, I kind of feel it's an honour to be part of the development process this way

[vapid briar]

For sure, Sky wouldn't be where it is without the years-long dedication from you all.

[hollow compass]

it's not like "early access" to some EA game, where nobody seems to care about your feedback 😉

um...I still have that red dot bug...

[fringe pier]

I’m gonna play beta for the first time after I do live and I gotta figure out how to properly beta

[hollow compass]

it's basically the same, except you'll be starting over if you're new

currently there's not much difference between the two

[fringe pier]

Oh yeah ! I figured that much! I meant more so the reporting process

Like how to report things, how to send it to them through TestFlight etc

[hollow compass]

also the same

you can report here also, I mean

[fringe pier]

Oh interesting ok 🙂 thanks for the heads up!!

[hollow compass]

just use #beta-bugs-ios

[fringe pier]

Got it!

[somber robin]

is there a spirit in the isle of dawn area that you need to bring a ball of blue light to something like the seasonal spirit or something, just checking

[obtuse plinth]

Best part about Beta is you get to do quests twice! /s

[somber robin]

oh wait its in the building right?

oh no, it appears outside the building is all

kept appearing and disappearing on the outside of the building to the right where the cloud tunnel is, is that something to report, or is it that I just got too close to the activation of the spirit from the outside sorry for the long question too

[radiant drum]

Was the spirit blue or gray? If you can share a screenshot in #beta-screenshots-videos that would be great!

Could be a bugged spirit that’s not available anymore

[somber robin]

got two screen shots ready ill go do that now

[edgy atlas]
