Will it arrive in beta aswell or are we just getting scammed

worn field
#

it will arrive in beta at the same time as it arrives on the live version, i believe. either way, i don't think we're getting scammed.

sly wind
#

Okie dokie finally some new content

minor robin
#

Scammed is a pretty harsh word... stickerShock There have been weeks in the past when live had a travelling spirit and beta didn't.

quaint onyx
#

There have been weeks where Beta had every traveling spirit at once SkyLOL

minor robin
#

End conclusion: we are at the mercy of the testing needs of Devs pHelloKrill

yeah, were getting scammed out of lightseeker spirits

I can super live with that. Woohoo gratitude

they removed the murshroom?

aaaaa sad

oob valley candles are gone too ; w ;

#

the vortex too!

worn field
#

oh i didn't think to check oobs

#

that's a nice change for oob explorers

icy falcon
#

yes, now you can fall into the sea when you run out of wings instead of getting sucked into wland SkyLOL

Is the homegate still there?

#

They (mushrooms and valley oob) are such a nice place to visit... stickerGloomy

minor robin
#

what... aw man I really enjoyed getting the oob valley candles and taking people to get them. It really helped improve my flying skills

worn field
#

it's a sign
your training is complete

final vapor
#

They should really take these ideas and make a mini game

#

Daily mini game

#

Or become a daily quest

#

That requires some flying and landing skills lol

minor robin
#

yeah, tbh I’m not sad about the lost wax as a currency but flying through them and the effect of the getting the wax let me know I was flying accurately pCry I wouldn’t mind getting minigames that have no reward, I just want goal confirmation.

#

i guess there's always citadel

minor robin
#

and prairie nest... every day I pray for server merge so all the candles are lit pFIRE

icy falcon
#

since those valley candles were unlit in beta the fun part of it for me was table hopping between them with friends - the more tables the better!

past jackal
#

sorry for the noob question, is there a beta for android? nvm i just saw the pins SkyPray

empty inlet
#

yes

woeful lodge
#

well I have a similar thing but if I see the stars carefully unlit friend stars are SLIGHTLY darker than the lit ones
@dry pivot

Also, the more stuff you unlock with a friend, the star itself gets bigger.

#

Is anyone else confused about “stepping mode”? I feel like I’ve been doing tap and slide to take 1 step since August?

#

Or maybe I’m just misunderstanding the update?

spark lance
#

Try one hand mode, it's broken

hollow compass
#

is it?

#

I only play one-handed, but the again I don't think I used this feature much

#

oh! now I see! it is broken

#

weird that it seemed to work yesterday in portrait mode

#

wait, it does work in portrait mode but not landscape

woeful lodge
#

Try one hand mode, it's broken
@spark lance

Yeah but the way I read the release note it is implying that stepping control is a new thing in two handed mode.

#

So I’m trying to figure out what I’m missing cuz I’ve been doing what it says for months

hollow compass
#

I still don't understand what the point is other than for fun

spark lance
#

Lemme get a screenshot vid see if i do it right.

spark lance
#

It's useful for aimed jump

#

Alright, I gotta sleep it's almost 3 am here -_- I'm sleepy

#

Goodnight

hollow compass
#

When do you need to aim for jumping in this game? Almost all surfaces have a "magnetic" mode.

spark lance
#

I use it sometimes in Eden

blazing stone
#

I was confused about the patch notes about stepping mode too. I always play two handed mode and I’ve been using the step since it was first introduced as “hula hoop” mode a LONG time ago. It’s very useful for accurately positioning your sky kid for photos. I thought the patch notes implied something was changed about it and I was trying to figure it out for a while , then I just gave up.

spark lance
#

If you have the older build, you will find the difference. 0.9.1 will need to long press the legs in two hand mode, often I got into chirps and a little buggy in between.

#

0.9.2 just polished that function

#

I tend to get creative with that function during exploring, although Flashman and others did mentioned that is for positioning in photo session, which is a convenience too

#

You had to long press on the feet
@spark lance

#

Now you can long press and use it on the body
@spark lance

#

From what I understood

blazing stone
#

Oh I see the difference now. In Live all you have to do is drag off your characters legs to activate step mode. In beta you have to hold down on them for a little while before it will activate.

I much prefer the ease of the way it is in Live , not having to hold down. It’s instant.

analog citrus
#

Yeah i dont see the need to change it at all. Ive never heard anybody complain about it.

finite pumice
#

I’m guessing that the change is something to do with portrait mode and the smaller touch area. It seems like they’re compensating for some interaction problem, possibly in one-handed mode. It’s a mess now but a few iterations should sort it.

Whats this game for

The favorite friend constellation was changed to hold more favorites.

#

anything involving a little white flower is hacked content, please refrain from posting pictures/discussing until official announcements are made.

hollow compass
#

why do people insist on ruining it for others

#

I just remembered I didn't post my feedback on the constellation in portrait mode, so I shall go do that!

#

@hollow compass what is the reason for writing something, and striking it out? I'm only asking to understand because I've seen it done elsewhere.

hollow compass
#

oh. I tend to use it as a side comment that isn't really important to the conversation.

#

such as: I've had my coffee today, I swear

#

To me it usually means there is no need to reply to that particular comment. Does that make sense?

@spark lance “more stable” 😁

hollow compass
#

@main violet what type of help do you need? is it related to the beta or the Live version of the game? Some issues can be helped by peers in #questions-and-help other things you need to contact Support directly.

lusty light
#

@lunar talon no and don’t ask for that here

hollow compass
#

Has anyone else noticed that a lot of new players think the meditation spots for daily quests are return shrines? I wonder, did we not give this feedback when the return shrines were introduced, or were we all “blind” to that because we knew the difference out of experience?

no I haven't and I was totally blindSkyFaint OH YES THEY LOOK SIMILAR

I wrote some feedback on the return shrine/meditation spot confusion, even if it's a bit late now. 🙂

At least it’s there now. Some things take time to realize too

#

Yeah. Like I said, I think many of us missed this because we already knew the difference.

I’m kinda disappointed the mushrooms are gone. And not just for the extra candles. The collaboration needed for some to get the oob shrooms has added a fun friend making aspect to the new area. While I’m mostly a solo player, I’ve found I’ve met and friended a lot of people who wanted to find the hard to reach 🍄.

@Holla4me

Same it's really fun to drag a group to the underground then building stairs to the 🍄, even when ur in solo its a challenge to fly and land on the table by yourself haah. Sometimes you met players that already been there and they'll honk and try to help you tag them so you can land on the table too! When you pick it up it gives a fun animation. I'm missing them already! Gotta play with em in live while you still can pEyes

Day 1142: still no notif for beta sigh

tbh live is way more fun. beta can be pretty empty which makes it a struggle to open multi player doors SkyWhew

#beta-feedback is a great place to talk about the mushrooms returning for the out of bounds audience.

@minor robin it's orange

#

And I went to about 5 place and got into 10 gates

#

But I wanna someone explore me the game more and have more fun

#

It's so hard to have a heart and candels for me Iknow I need to go any candles and collect but It's hard Idk why

minor robin
#

Okay so right now you are in the beta channel. Beta sky and live sky are 2 separate gaming apps and don't have crossplay with each other. stickerHangOn there's lots of people in #looking-for-group-live as well as #general-sky-discussion who are playing the live version along with you SkyTada enjoy the exploration, eventually getting candles will get easier as you discover more candle/darkplant locations

Question for iOS beta testers, when you tap the Discord link in today’s daily message in live, is it trying to open in TestFlight for you?

Traveling spirit was in the air for me on login but when I closed and reopened it was back down.

It's trying to open test flight for me but I'm not iOS beta tester @quick oriole

quick oriole
#

I’m not a beta tester for this particular game either, it still wants to open in TestFlight tho ~_~

hollow compass
#

what daily message is that?

#

oh, the splash screen? yes, it also takes me to TestFlight

#

it says: removed link

#

@quick oriole

quick oriole
#

Yes, and it should not pEyes

hollow compass
#

lol, nope, if anyone actually reads it and then clicks they will be very confused

#

the thing is, these messages are hard-coded and therefore more difficult to change

#

they may even be straightforward copied from beta sometimes, which has happened in the past

quick oriole
#

Le oof

empty river
#

well ain't that weird SkyWhew

#

maybe it only happens if you have the testflight app?

quick oriole
#

I deleted TestFlight for a bit, it just doesn’t open at all and if you paste the link in a browser it says it’s an invalid address

empty river
#

we've still had a lot of new members join today so i guess it's not 100% consistent? pThink

quick oriole
#

Le hope

hollow compass
#

no, the link is hard coded

#

you can see the address in the screenshot channel

#

I posted it above, but deleted it because I wasn't sure if it was a good idea to have it displayed here

worn field
#

maybe most of today's new members tapped the discord icon below the motd, instead of the link in the message itself

#

since it's just the link in the message that has the beta link

storm vessel
#

You can't tap on it in Android, maybe that's why people still joining normally

hollow compass
#

how do you mean?

storm vessel
#

Click on discord icon at the bottom

hollow compass
#

oh, the icon link doesn't work on Android?

vapid briar
#

that's weird, those links look right in the code.

finite pumice
#

On my iPhone I’m taken to Testflight from the live app. That’s super weird. Why on earth would the live app link to testflight?

#

Do you want me to post the link here?

#

I have a screen recording of it all if you need but it's 50MB so it won't work for a bug report (why oh why?).

hollow compass
#

I posted the link earlier and it's also in screenshots

Cool. thanks.

#

So this is discord

hollow compass
#

yes

#

It's my first time using 😅

#

#

#

ok, are you in beta?

formal storm
#

Is all the players here betan

#

Yeah

hollow compass
#

in this channel, yes

formal storm
#

Oh ok

hollow compass
#

did you have something particular you wanted to talk about regarding beta?

formal storm
#

Hmm is the beta cape really gone?

hollow compass
#

!betareward

gilded parrotBOT
#

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

formal storm
#

Oh then android users can't get it anymore?

hollow compass
#

the information is in the message 😉

formal storm
#

Ok thanks

hollow compass
#

if you want a cape with the same features/similar style you can ask someone to take you to the office and buy the Founder's cape there

formal storm
#

Yeah I already have a friend to take me there

#

But when will be the full version of sky in android? Cause there's still a lot of bugs that needs to be removed except the obb (•ω•)

hollow compass
#

The Live version of the game has been released to Android. It was about a month ago now, just before the new season started.

formal storm
#

Yeah I pre register before the launch

#

I guess I'll wait then ʕ•ε•ʔ

quick oriole
#

Wait for what?

hollow compass
#

yeah, what are you waiting for?

quick oriole
#

Maybe they mean for bugs on the Android version to get straightened out skyShrug

hollow compass
#

but that's what beta is for

#

we have bugs in iOS too

I'll wait for the updates 😅

Can some data of Android be transferred to Apple?

In global you can transfer your account, you just use the settings and link your acc. Then sign in to the mail from the same setting.

But I think you can't in beta

#

ok,Thank you

#

Yw!

sharp temple
#

Hi! I wanted to ask if something. If I delete my beta app now, will I be able to download it again whenever I want or I'll need to wait until it opens again?

#

Like is beta-tester status permanent in play store or I'll need to wait till the next beta wave? I hope you get what I'm saying 😅

spark lance
#

Um if I know it right, you don't lose your slot unless you choose to stop testing

hollow compass
#

If you delete the app in TestFlight you are out. I don’t know how it works for Android.

#

It is worth noting that your account isn’t deleted, even if you lose access, unless TGC does an actual account wipe. Previously, they have only done access wipes to open up for active players to replace the ones that didn’t play anymore. But they still need and keep the data of the old ones.

What if players could place down red candles in certain areas but it would sacrifice one of their own candles? Like you can increase the size of a stack of candles for other future players

empty river
#

with 10+ million players the ground in all the levels would just be candles SkyLOL

quick oriole
#

Make it be possible in like a single room or something so it’d almost look like a shrine filled with candles SkyPray

#

There could be a limit on how many can be placed in one stack or resets weekly or something

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

anyone notice any changes?

Friend constellations are offset lower....pretty sure that wasn't intentional

prime belfry
#

Some improvements to stepping

#

Still not as smooth as the old way

#

But ok for one hand mode

analog citrus
#

Yeah stepping is different
I still don’t know why?
It’s been one way FOREVER and now they wanna change it

prime belfry

I think intended for portrait one handed

Is foot press THAT bad?

prime belfry

I don’t like it as I use an iPad but hey can’t win on everything

It’s a two step process

#

I keep accidentally shouting

prime belfry

White circle appears now you can spin

#

Yup I either shouting or taking off running

analog citrus
#

The calls seem different too...maybe I’m just seeing things...lol

prime belfry
#

Really?

analog citrus
#

Spam call sounds different

prime belfry
#

I’m going to have to do this on two devices to compare live and beta

analog citrus
#

I have a feeling the stepping is all there is in this update, cause it was broke

#

And the smaller constellation stars

prime belfry
#

I was wondering if they have fixed contrast between lit and unlit friend stars

analog citrus
#

Nope

prime belfry
#

Before it was easy to see the difference

analog citrus
#

Still can’t tell who you lit

#

The gates at the end of forest and prairie are still not there

prime belfry
#

Now it’s trial and error which is time consuming carpel tunnel inducing

analog citrus
#

So maybe that’s a actual change and not a bug

dry pivot
#

Yeah I think the removal of some constellation barriers are intentional

prime belfry
#

Yes barriers are down. Not too bothered , but that’s because I’ve been playing a long time

analog citrus
#

I think it’s good but kinda weird to do it now

prime belfry
#

They were some what tiresome but I get why they were there

dry pivot
#

when I was a newbie I got enough spirits before I reached the prairie gate/forest gate

prime belfry
#

Me too

dry pivot
#

so probably those were kinda unnecessary ones

prime belfry
#

Makes sense

analog citrus
#

The prairie one I really understand. You can get manta kidnapped and be up top before getting much of anything

prime belfry
#

You will still want to come back for birds nest and caves after seeing you can’t get in

spark lance
#

Try play as a newbie who has no idea about the game

crisp plinth
#

hehe I actually got to the prairie and forest gates and didn't have enough spirits to pass on my first run 😆

dry pivot
#

if you don't know nothing read any walkthroughs and was kidnapped by manta and saw the barrier which won't open for you, that's like a trap, dead end.

#

well I checked the prairie gate it was 1-spirit barrier

#

so if you got butterfly emote that was enough

analog citrus
#

It’s one? Lol

prime belfry
#

When I was moth I pretty much exhaustively explored

crisp plinth
#

I didn't get the butterfly emote on my first run SkyFaint

prime belfry
#

Lol

crisp plinth
#

I have no idea what I was doing back then lol

prime belfry
#

You were in “ OO SHINEY” mode like the rest of us

#

yeah and such newbie doesn't know how to go back to the islands

spark lance
#

Old players become valuable to the moths

crisp plinth
#

I forgot about most side areas for weeks too lol

dry pivot
#

so I think it's better if they could just move on and come back to prairie later

prime belfry
#

I came back later

#

For cave and birds nest

crisp plinth
#

I forgot about their existence 🙃 I didn't even notice the sunny forest until well after my first Eden run

Hii my friend got ios test link today.. But i didn't see the announcement here in dc

#

Where does it come from

empty river
#

Huh...were they able to download beta? pEyes

elder meteor
#

Testflight

#

Yes they download it successfully

hollow compass
#

where did they get the link from?

elder meteor
#

Didn't know the original source, spreading in social message app

hollow compass
#

Then it is not an official link and shouldn't be spread around.

elder meteor
#

I see

#

It is closed now

hollow compass
#

if TGC has opened up spots they will announce it here and maybe on their own social media accounts

#

my guess is it was an old link and there were a few spots open, because some people left

storm vessel
#

There is open spot

#

Because now I got in iOS beta too

hollow compass
#

but it's a bit unfair to those who signed up here and have been waiting for a long time to access it

storm vessel
#

Used to be able to play Android only

elder meteor
#

Also, a friend of mine in beta said he can not get all 6 seasonal hearts, even if he have finished all items

#

He only got 5

hollow compass
#

then they need to report that either here or in game

elder meteor
#

Oh.. He fix it

hollow compass
#

fixed it how?

elder meteor
#

Got response from customer service for one week waiting

hollow compass
#

ok, I thought you were asking for help now, sorry

ashen cosmos
#

beta was updated?

hollow compass
#

yes

ashen cosmos
#

What is the specific update content?

#

Is there any place I can check?

hollow compass
#

unsure, it just said bug fixes and patches

ashen cosmos
#

okay

#

thanks

finite pumice
#

So I just went for a wander through prairie and forest in beta. I see only one barrier that has been (thankfully) removed; the one at the end of forest. Are there others that have gone? Prairie is still infested with them which is a shame.

ohhh

#

finite pumice
#

not for me @hollow compass . It wasn't there at the entrance just now.

#

oh. lol. I get it. yeah another one.

#

🤦‍♂️

hollow compass
#

hehe, lol

woeful lodge
#

Wait, what barriers?

hollow compass
#

sorry, I'm playing at the same time

#

the barriers in front of some entrances/exits

woeful lodge
#

The constellation gates?

hollow compass
#

yes

#

I think Peter and I have always been staunch opposers of them - SkyLOL

#

I feel it hinders the flow of the game

woeful lodge
#

I agree, but only as regards constellation gates in the way of the primary path.

finite pumice
#

sure do.

woeful lodge
#

I don’t have any issue with side areas being locked.

#

Gives something to work toward.

finite pumice
#

The other thing I'm seeing is that in beta (latest update), the friend constellation buttons have all shrunk, regardless of the orientation of the phone. Apart from the size of the buttons, on all but the crown page, the buttons are all much lower down and (for me at least) some of them overlay the page-right button. I get that the constellations need to be tweaked for portrait mode however I think the approach needs to change to make their actual layouts differ rather than try and squeeze their landscape shape to fit.

woeful lodge
#

But it would be nice if there were more side areas or if wax placement/candles were randomized

finite pumice
#

once last little thingy. this latest version is a massive battery leech on my iphone 8.

crisp plinth
#

I don't mind the constellation gates being there- it's an incentive to come back later and explore more- but it's annoying to stop and pull my candle out every time I want to pass. hehe I'll just pop over to #live-feedback and say something pSkyPeek

woeful lodge
#

I noticed that the actual friend stars are generally bigger depending on how much I’ve unlocked w that person

crisp plinth
#

Well my fat fingers have been hitting the wrong stars since the dawn of time, making them half as big as the screen wouldn't even fix that lol stickerEmbarrassed

woeful lodge
#

@finite pumice I just looked at what you’re saying about the constellations in portrait mode and some friends get cut off completely. I took a screen recording I’ll drop in feedback and in screenshots.

Lol, thank you @worn field @kindred fossil

hollow compass
#

I'm curious how you got in, since there has not been an official link posted anywhere.

#

While I don't begrudge you getting in now, it is a bit unfair to the people who have been waiting a long time for official slots to open.

#

Plus, the link isn't meant to be shared publicly other than by TGC.

drifting siren
#

Hello! I am new here, I am wondering how do I get the beta cape?

vapid drum
#

Get in a time machine and join beta before may 2019

#

Ahhhhhh , so that’s why I’ve been seeing so many new players in beta the past 2 weeks, they are filling up slots ?

drifting siren
#

Oh ok

#

So I can never get it without paying?

kindred fossil
#

@hollow compass thats because a slot was freed, i had an old invite link saved up

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

dry pivot
#

at least we know you have been waiting for a long time, dark, so congrats to you!

#

Will you still be able to get the beta cape if you're new to beta?

kindred fossil

no

#

!betareward

gilded parrotBOT
#

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

tight wing
#

Okay, thank you!

kindred fossil
#

just how many slots were freed... pThink

dry pivot
#

yeah, it doesn't sound like a few slots being freed up by beta players quitting the program

#

maybe slots were added but they couldn't make an announcement

kindred fossil
#

HMMMMMM

dry pivot
#

cuz it's weekend

#

So I can never get it without paying?
@drifting siren That's right. But in beta you can buy the founder's cape without paying any actual money, though nothing can be transferred from your beta account to your live account.

hollow compass
#

@kindred fossil exactly, that’s what I suspected: an old link is making the rounds. It is interesting that it’s still working, actually. I was under the impression they always made new ones for new openings.

kindred fossil
#

didnt get the link from anyone neither shared it with anyone, i did some digging long ago, ever since i missed the last ios invite wave

hollow compass
#

I didn’t say you were sharing it. I said a link is available somehow through someone, since there seems to be quite a few new beta members.

kindred fossil
#

also ktjn explained before that its possible to use an old invite link, but the chances of you actually getting in are very, very slim

#

oh yeah i know what you meant, haha, just saying

hollow compass
#

It would definitely be interesting to trace the how and where. In any case, I hope new beta players make the most of this chance. TGCThumbsUp

Yes, i got in by an old link. Before when I tried it always said slot full. Only worked today.

hollow compass
#

I guess I just got a little suspicious what with the previous happenings, sorry.

#

And I also didn't think it was possible to use an old link, that's all.

dry pivot
#

as there was no announcement I think it's natural to get suspicious
and it's true it wasn't fair for people who've been waiting for a ping

#

tho that doesn't mean people who noticed this wave and got in was doing something unfair

hollow compass
#

yeah, I kind of don't think someone would stomp in here and announce they cheated their way into beta SkyLOL

kindred fossil
#

maybe it has something to do with portrait mode? its only for ios as of now, so...

#

guess we'll wait for The Official Word later down the line

hollow compass
#

nah, don't think so

#

more likely people just left

#

lots of my old beta friends aren't active anymore at all

kindred fossil
#

ah well, but not 1 or 2 joined beta today, seems a few more than that

blazing sail
#

It would absolute mayhem if they announced it every time a slot or two opened up.

kindred fossil
#

thats not what i meant though, it doesnt seem like a few people left testing

#

and chances of joining through an old link because of a freed slot is like, %0.0000001

dry pivot
#

yeah, and I think usually people would just stop playing and/or remove the app without properly quitting the program

hollow compass
#

you're kicked out after 90 days of not updating

dry pivot
#

oh I didn't know that

kindred fossil
#

o

hollow compass
#

but again, the last time there was a large influx of new beta players they arrived through "illegal" means

dry pivot
#

then maybe something happened around 90 days ago?

hollow compass
#

all new builds are valid for 90 days, but we always get patches/updates before that

kindred fossil
#

thats weird then, i always checked the link i had, never worked until now

That is a very good question, actually! I hadn't thought of that.

I'm thinking when the season ends either a) the area will look like it originally did for any new players, or b) the area will permanently change into it's "restored glory" form, regardless of player participation.

leaning more towards option A tho pThink

but then, if someone who did finish the season goes there with someone who didn't...hm...?

@cinder gust it will be buggier and incomplete. How did you come about the link to beta?

empty river
#

which area of forest is that in? pSkyPeek

analog citrus
#

dont do much oob in forest anymore since the plants were moved above ground in the foggy forest

quick oriole
#

It’s the little bit of terrain after the exit from the fungi trees map to the broken brides map

#

You can glitch oob and fly around the spot that transports you

empty river
#

ooor just fly above the cave too i guess SkyLOL

quick oriole
#

Lot harder to do in the rain SkyFaint

astral surge
#

i've been there once but that was only because my friend's game bugged out so bad during the umbrella spirit and when i warped to her she was in that place behind the hill-ish area

vapid briar
#

right now you can fly straight to the area with zero glitching, which we want to fix the broken windwall for, but want to be mindful of those who go there intentionally.

astral surge
#

i definitely think it's one of the lesser visited oobs

empty river
#

I always wondered what was beyond that loading zone, it's pretty neat little spot at least

#

Wouldnt go there on my own just to play music cos u know,,rain

astral surge
#

i use the one in the first area sometimes actually. just not that specific one.

dire escarp
#

Ooh the meditation stone in ark has emerged from the sands!

#

Though if you're taking requests from oob explorers, removal of reset ceilings would be fun?

#

Reset floors and walls I can understand for players getting somewhere they don't want to be, but the ceilings seem strange to me, as I've not seen a new player get above anywhere or hit a reset ceiling unintentionally

quick oriole
#

Making a way to remove wind walls through some kind of action or option would be a nice change 😭

Haha, good stuff for the #wishlist-and-ideas-archived channel. I'm just pulse checking to make sure we don't have another rainbow bridge incident where something was innocently patched and the community at large assumes the worst of us SkyCry

dire escarp
#

But on a real note Eden has some beautiful oob areas to fly around in

minor robin
#

... the most diabolical thought occurred to me: move the ark mushrooms to eden lmaooo

vapid briar
#

the wind wall there is missing/not working and it was pointed out by players who very much do not want to be out of bounds for any reason. We want to make sure those players don't end up places they don't want to be while protecting the out of bounds areas that so many of you cherish.

vapid drum
#

Then why was the oob in the sunny forest locked with a ceiling ?

vapid briar
#

if it's the one i'm thinking of, it's still there just harder to get to than it was at ios launch last july.

vapid drum
#

Yes , it’s still reachable , but the view is not what it used to be

minor robin
#

oh a friend noticed that in prairie cave’s oob part of the butterfly fields’s dud area was no longer accessible. tried to take me there and we got warped sqwarlockDed

You had the eden castle in the distance

ahh it should still be accessible, I'm just bad at flying SkyLOL

minor robin
#

ohhhhh, ay we can always try again later. SkyHighFive

vapid briar
#

generally speaking, game devs don't want players out of bounds. it's not intentional for you to see the man behind the curtain (aka the wizard of oz) it tends to ruin the magic of the setting we're trying to establish. TGC has a very small, special subsect of the larger community that is incredibly fond of going out of bounds and we want to preserve those places, but not entirely at the expense of our design plans. Which is why we patch up holes to places we don't want people to be, but want to preserve the more special ones like rainbow bridge and the valley temple area. That doesn't mean we're going to give free reign to all out of bounds areas, or not put floors/ceilings/windwalls to contain some of the chaos behind the scenes.

vapid drum
#

Understandable, we had that convo before. It was just that that specific area was beautiful and looked intended. It didn’t had a ‘backstage’ look. That’s why I thought it had to do with server space or something

vapid briar
#

It's been a while since that fix, I believe the original discussion was that it was too ugly looking for the level designers' tastes and we'd bring something better back in the future...on the very, very long to-do list.

minor robin
#

tbh the immersion has been very very good, my first few weeks of playing I rarely went oob (only thanks to friends who dragged me). I knew of its existence thanks to discord but as a new player who just wanted to focus on what the game had to offer via story/intended mechanics, it was a really great and moving experience.

vale shale
#

are glitches given special consideration if they're used exclusively for OOB purposes?

quick oriole

Seeing videos like that and then dying inside cause I want to get past wind walls even more SkyFaint

quick oriole

No there you don’t go cause it doesn’t work for wind walls

depends on the glitch and if there are other repercussions that can ripple out.

spark lance

Like that in beta screenshot channel

crisp plinth
#

The spiral piggyback doesn't work for wind walls, but rocket does

vapid briar
#

We want to be respectful of cherished places in the community, but that doesn't mean we'll make exceptions for just any old thing. It has to make sense and also do no harm to those who may be impacted by it.

quick oriole
#

There is nothing that works for wind walls. Tables, piggyback anything, intense experimentation

vapid drum
#

It would be great if something better came into it’s place , but for now , the rest of the game has more then enough beautiful things left😍

my favorite is when discord caching is being especially slow and you click on the name and the pfp changes.

What was the original message for putting down the swing again? “Use to chat with the one” or something like that?

Something like that, lemme check

#

“Place a swing to chat with The One”

pulsar edge

Wasn’t this already a thing?

Chat between players on the swing is no longer able to be seen by players at a chat table or bonfire

so no more skeleton star?

They are both there

whuhuh.

They moved the original star from the bones to the platform, then added a new star to the bones iirc

vapid briar
#

i should clarify that long changelist is for 0.9.2, not specifically the latest build.

pulsar edge
#

Also, random question about the lightseekers and gratitude vault spirits. When they come back as travelers, will the platforms for their memories return? Is the code for that in place?

quick oriole
#

Afaik yes

#

I think they just have to turn on the terrain

pulsar edge
#

Also, random piece of feedback: the Gratitude Vault spirit, now that I think back on it, was a really nice challenge, and a great use of the carry spirit quest mechanic, and I’d like to see more like that

vapid briar
#

I believe the original nodes and blobs were deleted. So we've had to do some reconstructive surgery so to speak for spirits whose platforms were nuked after the season concluded.

empty river
#

Just add a cannon that launches us directly into the spirit ez

pulsar edge
#

Lol

quick oriole
#

Spirit memory just point A > B and you’re done

vapid briar
#

sometimes it's a matter of turning things back on. it just depends on how the level designer put things together.

pulsar edge
#

Oh shoot my memory failed me. Gratitude vault wasn’t a carry spirit

#

Still a really good quest tho

vapid briar
#

it's definitely one of those things i found amusing about Rhythm, was some complaints about how simplistic that season was and it's like... y'all that was the very first season from 2018, of course it was more simplistic. Granted, those who had that critique didn't know it was a rerun. I think if Gratitude in its original form ran again, it would be talked down as well...aside from the cosmetics themselves. Instead it's highly coveted because the game wasn't widely known then.

empty river
#

Wait I just had a thought

quick oriole
#

Wait how was it simplistic? Like just the storyline or something?

empty river
#

The prairie spirit from belonging uses the old version of butterfly fields right?

My phone heats up cause the battery needs to be replaced but I’m stingy and don’t wanna pay for it >_<

Lol I feel that

#

Someone asked why Rhythm felt simplistic compared to the other seasons: probably because the spirit quests were so easy.

hidden quarry
#

what makes spirits easy or hard

#

carry in difficult terrain or not?

pulsar edge
#

My battery is surprisingly healthy considering I play a ton of a super battery intensive game. It’s only dropped 3% health since I started playing Sky over 9 months ago

quick oriole
#

Mainly how long the memory is coupled with the area it goes through

hidden quarry
#

mmm

#

belonging waste...

quick oriole
#

The belonging wasteland one went directly though the path of he right three krill in graveyard

crisp plinth
#

Location and platforming imo. Carry quests are especially difficult (looking at you, SkyShush ) gw quests right in the middle of krill paths are tough obviously..

quick oriole
#

Not easy SkyFaint

hidden quarry
#

when the last spirit is all the way back to the crab pit

quick oriole

oH I forGOT about shush

pulsar edge
#

@hidden quarry hard spirits would be gratitude and belonging wasteland, whereas gratitude and lightseekers vault are challenging

hidden quarry
#

what was shush

quick oriole
#

I loathed that spirit

hollow compass
#

was that one Vault?

pulsar edge
#

Shush wasn’t hard, it was just a slog

crisp plinth
#

i uh struggled with gratitude vault because the moving platforms gave me a headache SkyLOL

quick oriole
#

It was the vault one for lightseekers

hollow compass
#

urgh

#

platforming was never my thing

quick oriole
#

It was hard for me cause I couldn’t get it alone. There were always at least 4-5 other players and that many people would mess up the memory on small platforms, so we kept losing it

crisp plinth
#

Example, rhythm gw was carry but it was really easy because it only crossed one krill

hidden quarry
#

yea

pulsar edge
#

I wish there was a way to have more of a challenge in sky for people like me who want it, but without making it too hard for the people who don’t want that

hidden quarry

It was actually more difficult in the original Winter season

Master mode is just portrait mode SkyLOL

hidden quarry
#

lynel in great plateau type beat

#

how so, belpita

Nah, portrait just needs its controls tweaked

hollow compass
#

for one, you had to revisit the spirit in its location to get new items

whoahhh

#

isnt that just more of a hassle than difficulty

hollow compass

I remember getting the piano from them was a momentous moment

pulsar edge
#

I believe in the potential of portrait mode

i already love portrait mode
