What Joshur said ^^
Hope people don't do the same these youtubers do
Yay, IOS beta also gets update
the fix focuses more on android since the graphics issue seems to be an android only problem
Is it true that I can buy old seasons items on the last part of eden? (Beta)
Is it true that I can buy old seasons items on the last part of eden? (Beta)
@spark lance i want it too
That was an unintended feature that I believe was removed
yes that bug was removed loong ago
Sad
Unintended things get removed
not really, progress can be wiped if devs see fit
and earning all those candles to afford them in the first place... hhhhhhhh 
waiting for Travelling spirits in live is way better.
Imagine if it made its way to live
people would've taken advantage of it fast. So it's best that it was removed entirely
Anyone know what the "glitching issue" is that tgc need help testing?
Rainbow pixels on Android devices
ah ok
Yo mini, you got update?
Beta update? Yeah
in other news - the collision detection thing is working correctly for me in beta now, it seems


oh yeah same! noticed that
I only have the swing set lol I'll hop online and join yall
I am dumb. collision detection?
in #beta-announcements , collision for table has been tweaked to prevent griefing
does it only look different to other people?
#beta-screenshots-videos just posted some examples 
:0 i wonder what the campfire looks like
oh so the tables can't be inside each other anymore?
why are they different colors now?
to signify that from your point-of-view that you have not lit its owner
therefore you will not experience collision
oh ok so to me my table will still be the brighter color but to unlit kids they'll see the dull color
y e p p
bit of a pity for the swings, I kinda liked hopping on them when I could... but I understand the need to cutdown on griefing
ooo guess this prevents using leftover tables then?
so owner needs to light people for them to sit on it too? I assume more for the benefit of the people who don't own the table
I've accidentally gotten my own friends stuck in my table before x.x
your friends will still be affected, since they’re automatically lit up by you
true. but I can imagine if I got my friends stuck accidentally that it's happened to strangers too
at least my friends can yell at me for it XD
°○°
So you're notified if slots open
the role is for notification
Ohh i see
You shouldn't be placing tables to block people in the first place
how about oob
Okay i understand. Thanks :)
i suppose it won't affect your going OOB yourself using a table but I can't test that I am bad at table glitching
Can I stack my table on my friends table
I guess to oob and use table in Eden, the owner will just have to light up everyone that wants to use
Yes @prime belfry
As long as the owner of the table/whatever isn't a shadow, you can interact with it
Oh good was hunting for friends on in beta to test tables with me ( think they a a sleeping) ha thanks.
When the notes said anti collision I was worried that I could not collide mid air with my table
But it’s ok I can
Hey I'm not a beta tester but I have the role here for some reason. (I realized when they @ beta testers) How do I change that?
Go to #rules and remove your reaction to the
if you no longer want the Beta Member role
I did but it's still there?
click it again to remove your role
make sure the reaction is grayed out and not kinda purple
I bought the cape in the office but I didn't realize choosing it here would give me a role. 😅 Okay I'll try unclicking it again.
Buying the cape does not give you the role
You must've selected it some other time
Perhaps when you joined the server
The 🕯️ might not have been visible, it's a discord bug
I'm aware buying it didn't, I just meant that I own it. And I didn't realize picking it on roles under my preferred cape was also choosing a role.
having the cyan cape role is different from the beta member role
I'm pretty sure it's a discord bug then because I've unselected it and it didn't go away.
Hm weird
Can a mod remove the role? Or can I silence the @ mentions?
@main cradle if you try selecting/unselecting the cape reaction in the #rules channel I can verify whether this is working. Logs tell me you added the role yourself when you joined.
Ah I see it was the one under rules. Thanks @orchid nexus I think I must have been tired when I read it and selected it for updates.
Sorry!
@main cradle now you've removed the regular member role but kept beta. Make sure you keep the candle reaction and remove the cape one if you don't want beta pings
and if you don't see both reactions in that channel, try reloading discord
I had to reload 4 times just now to see both reactions. it's a strange discord bug
I keep reloading only to get the candle option. It's fine I'll just ignore the pings and try again later. Thanks for trying to help!!
so...er, IG post says not to update. Is this true for both Live and beta iOS versions right now, or only Android?
thanks! there was a wall of comments, and I couldn't find it
would you consider remove the reaction once the role is added alex?
I updated my ios in beta and I'm not puking rainbows. Which on this occasion is a good thing
736 mo for the update 🤪
When can I get the beta qualification?
same question😰

hi guys I’ve been pinged in a beta announcement requesting people to download the beta for android but I’m an ios user 🥺 i don’t know if I’ve mistakenly added a role for myself or were we all notified?
We all got notified (there's only one beta role on this server)
To be more precise all ppl with beta role were notified. If you don't need any beta notification at all, then maybe you've mistakenly added a beta role for yourself. You can remove the role by tapping
in #rules.
@spark lance there was no request to download beta. There was a ping to let current Android beta tester know they needed to update their app.
So the flower item is not coming to beta right?
nope
Shoot I kinda liked that
Anyone else getting lag after updating?
Everything was fine...then I updated and now it’s all sluggish
I haven't checked beta yet, but Live is still overheating and slowing down.
I updated both and my phone is laggy in both versions
Oof
I noticed its even more laggy when my phone is under 20% battery
It's normal i guess
Yeah, if you play the game while your phone charges or use battery saving mode the game starts to lag
i need to reset my ios device because it wont update, but i dont want to loose beta. is there a way to back it up with icloud or something?
I rebooted my iPad and it seems ok now. I think
If you’re logged in through GameCenter, your data is already backed up. I think TestFlight should also save your apps as long as they’re not expired. You just have to reinstall
are u sure it keeps the apps
I upgraded my phone and none of my beta apps carried over but I was able to reinstall the ones that are still active
Lost the ones that expired, but I think it still has my save data somewhere. Somehow. I dunno
I also have two devices, tho, so I dunno if that plays any part in it. TestFlight is a bit weird tho
not entirely sure, you might only need to log in with the apple ID testflight used to opt into the beta
i cant download software updates it says unable to check for update
Apple support tells you to restore to factory settings for every tiny little issue
Don’t listen to them unless you’ve tried everything else first
but i cant download software updates through computer either
Well, just backup to iCloud first
Otherwise you lose everything
(Apple support is generally really bad)
I once had an issue with Safari and an Apple Genius told me to restore to factory settings. It turned out I just needed to clear my browser history
i know but ive tried lots of things and idk whats wrong with it
It’s seriously their only answer for every problem
@spark lance yep, just tried, redownloading testflight and switching to the appleID that opted into beta kept the app
Cracked screen? Restore to factory settings
You tried just logging out of your Apple ID?
yes and i reset settings as well
Oof
oh btw if i erase everything and get sky and sign in with gamecentre will it keep my character
Yes if you’re signed into GC in Sky now
im scared now i just pressed erase
Hey so it’s been a while since I’ve been on what’s up with the flying boat animation? When I loaded up it played a little animation about finding some boat?
The only flying boat I know of is in the dev area
@hushed basin its for the new season, that boat takes you to a new area in wasteland
I’m in Golden atm by the really big boat that’s broke in half
I had a feeling it was In Golden I just have to find it now
@prisma quiver its unknown when, its staying as beta-only for now
@hushed basin thats shipwreck, the boat you need to find is in the first area after you enter the spiral/faceplant, to the far right, there should be a dock
How can I get beta sky?

@blazing sail it worked, testflight was still there i just had to download the apps again 
Dark may have just answered this for yk - not sure - but is there any news on the invisible/capeless cape coming to live? Almost got enough hearts now.
Have the devs said why not @reef sail ?
It's meant to be a silly item and prohibitively expensive, which is why there was a 99 Ascended Candle lock tied to it as well as the 999 Heart cost. Not having a cape and being able to fly is immersion breaking and exposes some of the rigging wonkiness of the skykid character model. For the time being, it is only a beta easter egg.
Ktjn on Feb 27
Thanks @crisp plinth @reef sail
Is there any way to remove the beta role from my user? I am no longer participating in the beta and would prefer to no longer be part of the discussion if possible?
you can remove it by clicking on the
reaction in #rules
if you dont see it try restarting discord
Guys something happend xd
I was in a weird room with and older spirit xD
I take a lot of pictures
Should I report as a bug?
ooo
could you share the pictures?
ahh wait that sounds like the forest elder bug mb 
ok, so not in beta? @opaque wyvern because then you can have a look in #known-issues for a workaround, I believe
@slender jacinth you do know discussion is voluntary? 😉
@hollow compass
😝 I more meant so I'd have less channel clutter on my screen, its a minor issue 😂
hehe, I see
yes, I suppose fewer channels visible is nice - perhaps just collapse this area?
TGC gods smiled upon me and gave 4 shrink spells
though my audio died halfway through storm, didnt have the game muted
dunno what caused this
That happens sometimes
I notice that once ||I die||, the audio cuts out completely and I have to completely restart my device
Hasn’t happened recently tho
yeah i had to restart my phone
hey chia noticed that the spirit graves are in their respective realm's social space now, not in the next one (e.g. prairie spirits' graves are in prairie social space now).
they're finally buried at home 
oof, seems to make sense given you can access constellations after meditating at the temple; no need for social space constellations too :0
oh right!
wait wot
i forgot to mention that!
are the isle's spirit in the temple then? before prairie?
check screenshots
deleted the app and started over to relive all the spirits, this is the first time i noticed :0
the isle graves buried in the sand
ooo
the placements feel really natural so i'm happy with it
i was in prairie earlier how did i miss this
i am blind 😔
was confused as a moth with the social spaces tbh
glad this happened
chia and dark must have the brain cell today
i noticed it when i went to wasteland, and saw a tombstone next to the bonfire
yea, the tombstones were in weird places
i wonder how it looks like to a new player
entered forest and something felt off 
welp back to beta 
hmm, maybe anticipation? for who the graves belong to
and why theres a different number for each realm
journey had grave markers at the beginning of the game too
feels almost like a callback
except those graves didnt spawn spirits that gave you fresh gears 

this feels so weiiird
seems like tgc snuck a few things into this beta hotfix thingo
ig they were already working on this stuff

going up to a grave and having a different spirit spawn is messing with my brain 
hahahha
also rip spirit names 
oh yeah
I kinda don’t like it :/ in prarie at least
idk, our brains dont like change :0
I liked to use those platforms as a stage
i wonder if the spirit-names are gone on purpose
And now the spirits are in the way 
oh no :(
werent they just placeholders
how rude
they took my performing rock 
the names were placeholders yes
aww sweat spirit is in the little cave thats cute
aw
not used to not having tombstones on either side of the forest fire :000
oh lol 4 days left of the season
oh wow
forgot whale call crashes the game 
it seems like the vault spirits are all buried in sand, which is a nice touch. i don't remember if it was already like that tho >_<
time for some sweet live comparisons

were chibis broken in this update
broken how?
there's this clown chibi that cant stand up right
they might be doing the tiny glitch
This tiny glitch is funny
tiny people who aren't appearing tiny have bent knees
ooo
What did they look like

forest's tombstones are more... "hidden" than in live, eh eh
huehehue

I was thinking about doing Eden with the tiny glitch

But it wore off
now i'm wondering if anything else got stealth-changed in this build 
you need chibi mask for it to last 😔
I used all my hearts in beta so I don't have the mask
oof, its the first thing i bought, to glitch through doors
i got chibi mask ages ago, idk why i bothered tho
i wish i could transfer all those shrink spells over from my live account
idk how to chibi glitch to go oob
I wonder what it would be like to run Eden tiny
hard to get hit by rocks i hope
stuck in a tiny gap for the 6754th time
I accidentally oobed in Eden as a chibi
every hole becomes chibi hole
does chibi leg clip work :0
yes
oo
i wonder if the kid you hug after dying would be mini as well
i tried it at the ark
oh hahahh
Hi there, I'd like to get updated when the beta team needs more people, but for me there isn't a
reaction in the rules for me to click- did anyone here have that problem? Sorry if it's an offtopic question 
update: clown chibi is somehow, half-way through the constellation rock
Its chibi in obrit if your a chibi
It's been like that since I joined the server
Skia, discord is wacky and the reactions don't appear properly sometimes. restarting discord a few times might help. or not.
I barley use beta unless they test something nee
haha..
So I feel weird being around everyone fancy and I have like 4 wedges
i don't even wear the rhythm stuff anymore knjdkad
l e g
legggggggg
i have 4 wedges :0
generally a little after the current season ends in live, but it's not consistent
i beat everyone
usually after the seasons concludes in live
Why does everyone wanna get in beta
bc
free items
Its not as good as everyone thinks it is
some people are under the illusion that beta is live but cool and fresh and hip
And lonely
fresh and hip
instead it's broken and you have no friends bc no one plays
too real
And you can be wiped at any time
but dude, free items, now how can i transfer those over to live
:0 oh noooo
I have like 3 friends on it
update: clown chibi has frens, wish that were me
i had a chair and chibi 
Dude how transfer free item to live
how did i even get them
buying hearts from spirits
noooo wayyy
theres the founders pack to burn through
yea lol i did use that
now im broke because i gambled for shrink spells, but i got 4 out of it
yay
hhh i still need to go over the old spirit memories bc i forgot half of them
there's so many
I spent the hearts I was saving for
on the chibi mask because I want to enjoy this bug while it lasts
So ummmm anyone else have everything turn into a blur while using shrink spell?
nooooo...?
no
nah
I only had one shrink spell
I have 20
So I’m having fun with it
But like.... everything I touched became a weird blur
Uploading video
I used a shrink spell and then just put on the chibi mask in the closet
Even though I don't have the chibi mask I became a chibi
They should make a double shrink spell like this
If this got into live everyone would probably asume your a hacker
Not if everyone had it
believe me the first time i saw pictures i almost had a heart attack
the changed graves placement is very interesting, I like that spirits are in the social space of their own realms now. Eden social space is now empty of graves.... which reallyyyyy makes me hope that it is to make room for possible eden spirits 
Idk how Eden spirits would work
it would definitely provide new challenging content for the experienced and the brave
But they would probably be super hard
aw yiss
But how would they work
Did someone say Eden spirits?! 
Spirits you collect and get in orbit
hard: follow spirit
super hard: guIDInG spirit
diabolical: catch the light quest at the krill pipes

If new spirits meant we could get regular capes in new colors
my dark green cape dream is not dead
yeah like.... “there were people here but.... nothing left to bury
“

dead to the exponent of dead
dead™️
DEAD^dead
giant elder tombstones at eden social :omegalul:
(dead^dead)dead+dead
Dead
Eead
Aead
Dead
eye
ded
it'd be neat if the elders' tombstones were in orbit actually, since that's where they appear after we finish their constlelation. orbit is like the social space after eden basically.
Yeah so weird blur https://youtu.be/7B0khZAGZSM
i don't understand where the blur is you're seeing
When the next season start?
Also when your in beta people assume you know when everything is going to start
Can I join beta?
It gets worse deeper into the video
beta is closed for now
yep, donut

zoom
i love the sound of your footsteps when you run as a tiny kid
I wonder when beta will be wiped again

The footsteps are so fast 
Did u know when slots r available?
We don't know
So fast I’m a blur
check pins, they'll open slots when they need to
Slots open on an as needed basis
we don't know when slots will open up, could be tomorrow or next year 
reasons why I am too lazy to get candles: possibility of beta being wiped XD so I mostly just fool around and make friends
Mini I keep seeing your pfp as a stick sky kid for some reason
..how
Idk
can u draw it out
the cape color clashes with the background
The pink cape on a pink background
ah
i do not see it
Pink best color lmaoo
i don't see the stick kid
Idk why I do
joshur we are blind but not blind blind
selectively blind
It just looks like the blue is the whole body
we got so good at pretending not to see that it became subconscious
but could we see any more sneaky additions to beta? 😔
also re: elder tombstones, sure they had those when orbit was still in its early stages in old beta
I wonder what a Eden season would look like
very ded
Death
death, pain, guns
💀
No guns though
dead kids everywhere
no guns 
Or maybe we'd all band together and help each other
death, pain, hugs
I wish I could have played super early beta
Thatd be sweet
🚫 🔫 🚫
whats that donut? you wish your phone was a portable oven?
dark you just described the whole game in 3 words
haha
3 days left then current season end...!
but where are the friends 😔
I wouldn't have cared if it was a portable oven if I got to see early isle
😔
that doesnt mean the next season will go into testing tho
that doesnt mean a new season will be tested in beta, krish, too early
maybe the real friends are the bugs we report along the way
one braincell lol
Too young to remember Paul
Paul 
I know in live the patch is supposed to fix the battery overheating problem that cropped up but... I’m still experiencing super heating after 30min of play. Anyone else experiencing this?
i caught so many bugs today 
Paul 😔
I don't know that much...so I just ask...!
Could we have a high-pitched call to use when mini chibified?
its alright krish
now you know
Looks like everyone pros here...! 😄
I would wanna be in early beta so I could see how the game has changed
bird call is so high pitched already, you want to go higher? might crack my phone screen 
wyiott, in live i still do, but in beta not so much
maybe because its so empty
Did early beta really make your phone heat up so much
supposedly
ask a mod or a veteran 
you can take a guess from looking at light awaits
I wish they kept spooky boogy man
I updated game today and I faced overheating in live version
my phone went from 30celcius to 40c in about 30min 
report it smh 
And also android graphics not optimize...!
Android graphics are good for me
that angy dog is so intimidating

@vocal vortex #bug-reports-android



I’m compiling the reports now lol, caught a few bugs today as well
Only flagship phones r optimized
my niche hipster phone is not only too cool for the masses but also very hot uwu /s
android was quite recently ported, they are still facing issues
I wish they make it available to computers soon so I can put the graphics to the max
Sky is planning on coming to switch this summer! After that, who knows 
switch its next, no news on pc release yet tho, only that its coming someday™️
I know

soon™
Thanks for all ur help...! I like the community 😍
krish, if you'd like to meet the rest of the community, you can gain access to the general channels by reacting with the candle 🕯️ in #rules
U r all awesome...🤩 That's why I joined discord...!
its free on mobile 
Yep
Lots of people ask about sky on pc, I hope that will be after switch 
I don't know much about discord right now...so help me ,😅 @worn field
My phone is burning
When I play sky
That's why I wish it was available to computers too
krish, if you go to #rules and scroll to the bottom, there should be a candle icon that looks like 🕯️
if you click on that candle icon, you can access the whole server, instead of just the beta section.
They fixed a problem that instruments had on Android so I am very happy
Joshur nice pfp
Did you draw it
If the 🕯️ isn't there, close and restart discord a few times, it might show up again
thank you joan
i didn't draw it, my amazing friend kira drew it 
Ok...! I will check that...! Also if any bugs I find I will tell you...! 😄
How I report in discord?
Report bugs for the live version in #report-a-live-bug
Scroll to the bottom and react to skybots message
if you have anymore questions, please ask in #questions-and-help, this is a general chat for beta testers to discuss their experiences
Okay....! Thank you 😊
Its lonely in beta
yep
I wish I could have done the don't go spirit in live but live wasn't out for Android
It was still super hard in beta
i dont remember if the path was different from what i saw in beta, it felt shorter in live
It took longer in beta bc I was alone
mhm that might be it! I dont think the sequence changed at all between live and beta
What happened to the spirit names?
💥
either ded or being worked on
removed until we have more polish.
good to know, maybe ill change my mind by then
Ktjn can we please keep the teeny tiny chibi?
as an ultra ultimate mega super rare spell that requires 100 AC to unlock
Nooo
0.000001 chance when using shrink spell
Just a regular spell
just thanos-snap it
Or even a permanent cosmetic
it's kinda broken tho. idk. have you seen how it looks with piggyback
I've been thinking a tall mask that makes you taller than max height- about as much shorter as chibi is to min height- would be cool
sometimes is fun to have this random bugs and let them just be that, bugs
giant santa would not be as amazing
I still have no idea why I became a blur tho
Like grandma qg 
Miss her so much
I hope she visits again sometime
Did santa get pushed back to regular height?
im not sure
i dont think so, santa looks weird in the constellation
like normal but not
they're too powerful 
obligatory reminder to put feedback in #beta-feedback and/or #live-feedback
i hope we can see the questgivers again too
let me dance with grandma again or i riot
er, no, either a baseless rumor or a hacker, dont discuss that here
okok sorry
thank you 
Do they plan to bring the invisible cape to live?
we dont know
No
didnt i answer you already
Just to confirm bc someone said they’ll
The invisible cape isn't coming to Live any time soon, if ever.

save it, screenshot it, put it on your wall and your fridge

is the changes to table theyre making soon going to affect oobing with table?
pls ping me if you answer
@hazy canopy if you place down a table, nothing will change. It prevents strangers from using your table.
If you're helping others oob, they have to be lit up to use your table. Same in reverse, where if you wanted to use someone else's table, you would have to light up the owner
But remember, things in beta are not guaranteed to go live
ok tyyy @slim kayak
No problem!
Im not in beta.. but i kinda like how some of the changes are geared towards more consent based decisions..
Hey @rugged karma, please submit bug reports in one of the bug report channels like #beta-bugs-ios! The feedback channels are for submitting feedback and opinions on features and changes currently being tested in the beta version
@radiant drum I tried, but the bot is not sending me a DM though I clicked the fire button
Hmmmmm I see. That's not good 
We'll take a look at it, if you could try submitting the bug report there later that would be great!
Ok I'll try it again later. Thanks for your help!
does anyone elses game crash when they look at constellations
nope, not having that issue
I’m good. Did you want to chat about beta experiences? 🙂
How is people getting superduper chibi in beta?
currently the shrink spell is glitched in beta and it makes skykids really tiny
Do u all play both beta and live?
yeah i play both
We don't know any details about the next season yet
Bizarre glitch from holding hands in Eden as Teeny tiny chibi https://youtu.be/2qwaGqzUTK4
Anything you've seen about the next season is hacked content and can't be discussed here 
The camera broke off and I was watching myself from afar
@silent lily thats hacked content, would be appreciated if you dont discuss this
great, thank you 
you know what guys? Too much attention. 
Sigh
hello, good day... I want to be part of the beta on iOs ... Where can I download it?

How do you guys get so small? Is it as simple as using a shrink spell because I tried and it didn’t work 😅
it's as simple as using a shrink spell. it only works in sky beta.
Me and a friend tried it in beta and it didn’t work..
have you updated?
Ah no 😅 it usually doesn’t let us play without updating, thank you!
Guuuuyyyys shrink spell makes child super smol right
i have a question is this a patch or bug
It’s a bug
Hello there @jade nexus
Ohhhhh you were here hello!
Hi
Wel I kind of knew it
its a fun bug tho, i will remember it dearly
That was adorable...

😂
On the subject of how to make a game that keeps players engaged by adding content without IAP all over the place I thoroughly recommend looking at Sneaky Sasquatch on Apple Arcade. It’s done very well. The added content fits into the narrative and story, provides the player with new content to explore, new skills and cosmetics that only cost in-game, and it’s fun. I know Sky is a multiplayer game with social goals but I really think it would have been a better story telling experience and one that would have engaged without the obsession with cosmetics above all else. The world of sky has a story. We can only guess at it and the seasons really don’t add to it in a cohesive way. Each season feels like a “what if” bandaged onto the side of the original without it truly being a part. Sky should aim for a synergistic experience. I know Sky is just as important to the Android community but I really think it missed the boat when it went IAP crazy and didn’t join Apple Arcade. It would have provided opportunities that are no longer available. For all the well deserved awards Sky gets for the amazing technical and visual feats achieved by the game it ultimately fails. I’m feeling so down that the game hasn’t grown or matured. I think as Ktjn has suggested, it’s time for me to stop playing. I wish the best to the team. You’ve done amazing work.
There will be one slot available on beta soon.
Is the game laggy for anyone else since the last update?
ask away
What is the full difference from beta to not beta?
beta is a testing environment, so it's mostly the same as the regular game, except it has a handful of features and/or improvements that are being tested. it tends to be buggier than the regular game, and not many people beta test so it feels very empty.
Plus I notice there is more players that speak a diffeeent language than live
Aw, sounds kinda lonely, so if you play beta you can only see other beta players?
Usually the candles at the shrines are in Chinese instead of a variety, so it might be hard for some to test in beta in some cases
Awh lemme give you all hugs

Beta sometimes can have some funky moments- very funky.
As with live, xylophone chair.. those were the times
that's one of the more fun bugs, haha
Iv always wanted to be a beta tester in a game. But then I would feel like I was just flexing all the time 😂
Imagine not ever being able to help a moth through wasteland 🤭
The weeks of trying to get the UI right for this seasons spirit quest giver was an experience
UI?
UI = user interface
Oh. So I’m guessing you both are beta?
Yep
It’s a huge string of quests, so the fitting of screens was a wacky ride to get right
The ending quests would go out of the side where it was fit.
Big ripppp also the small thing for betas everyone is talking ab, how small are we talking here?
you can see pictures in #beta-screenshots-videos 
Omg that is awesome 
How do u be beta

are rainbow candles a thing :0
Rainbow candles are something that was in game way before launch and removed because they suck
bruh
ill send a screenshot
I’m betting this is from some haxxers you tube channel
Waaat
wait
Cheers @hidden quarry
So is shrink spell just not working at all anymore? Is assume they would fix the micro bug but in a lil upset that it didn't work at all and I just wasted a spell trying to be chibi with a non chibi mask
okay so! chia and I went looking for them and after some time a rainbow appeared in citadel. at one end near the manta call npc there was a candle cake. I went to do valley fly but we forgot to check the other end of it.
I’ve returned to the map and so far no rainbow yet, currently not sure it appears due to time spent on map/the actual time/or candles all lit
currently experimenting
i saw the rainbow until i left the area, when i came back there wasnt any rainbow or candle bunch
no i mean like
oh
why at 4pm pdt now out of nowhere lol
hahahahahhaa
it’s a very fun photo opportunity, as someone who constantly forgets to visit forest, it’s so nice to see a rainbow ingame in person for once lol
i didnt check quests at reset, but when i logged in this afternoon the rainbow quest was there
anyone who checked at reset?
ok I lit all candles on the map and spent some time there, still no rainbow
was that you flying around w/a wizard hat on 👀
nopee! I am a buff mothicous with a founders cape 

So we have to check back on the hour?
I’m not good with that kind of stuff
I’ll probably miss it every hour and just get annoyed
best thing we can do for now its trial and error 
Even worse if it moves every hour 😂
I have a very hard time believing the first 10 min of every hour thing for a daily quest
If it turns out to be true then I guess I’m boo boo the fool
omg imagine the panic in wasteland if it was in the graveyard and you only had 10 minutes to find it
It would make you a slave to the game all day until you get it
22 chances to succeed
It’s ok, not like people have lives outside Sky 🤪
bold of you to assume i dont do my quests 10 minutes before reset 
i think it would probably just stay until youve left the area
idk, not if it's like the forest rainbow
But it’s not showing at all for many of us
we’re coming up on 30min
it didnt show for me until i flew around after a while
nope still nothing for me. chia im still on map and lit all candles
Also weird to call them rainbow candles
i remember seeing a candle bunch and flying towards it, then suddenly there was a rainbow
I would expect candles in diff colors
they are at the end of a rainbow, tho would be nice if the colours were changed
in your honor chia, I spammed boo where the candles used to be and nada

thanks wyiott

they refused to be intimidated!
If it turns out to be true then I guess I’m boo boo the fool
@quick oriole hi boo boo

aHA 

are we going to have a beta-updates post?
has there actually been a beta client update or is all this stuff server changes?
are we going to have a beta-updates post? probably
nope no more updates forever
we have to figure stuff on our own now? beta moths 
if only velo didn't keep drinking the braincell
done did.
yay!
little slow on the uptake today cuz i'm not feeling well and have other deadlines to meet <_<
pines already contributed to all the rainbow screenshots 
how does the rainbow event work?
10 mins are we thinking?
We know just as much as you can find out in #beta-announcements
As in not much rn
How do we give feedback if we can’t find it?
give feedback about how its hard to find i guess
thats the feedback youre giving then 
feedback: needs to appear more offen
Right but it’s unclear to me if it’s on a timer or just not showing
a rainbow at home in the middle of the night
p h y s i c s
Since people are posting screenshots while I still can’t see it
imma sitting and watching, if it's there I'll wait until it despawns and try to time it
well check again after 8 mins
Yeah I’m going to
If it is only 10 min every hour, I’ll definitely give my feedback 😛
I don’t see anything anywhere in the citadel soo... I guess I’m waiting as well
ain't no party like a citadel party!
but what's supposed to happen when you find the rainbow? Are there rewards or is it just about finding it
its a daily quest and theres a candle bunch
i completed the quest as soon as i touched the rainbow
The rainbow, not the candles?
Weird
did you taste the rainbow?
Then it should just say “find the rainbow”
Should be a pot of gold
I guess there are 2 ends
what would be the sky equivalent of a pot of gold
I wonder if it will appear again for those who did the quest already
a pot of Lux
it's entirely possible they're planning to make it so the quest doesn't complete until you collect the candle wax, and just haven't finished implementing it
A jar of butterflies?
hmmmmmm
4 minutes in theory... sitting in position
I’m nervous
maybe the candle cake is a placeholder cos u know...not rainbow enough
those candles makes the rainbow
That would be epic
rainbow cape - $39.99
Noooo
999 hearts
Well june is the pride month
After you unlock all the regular capes you get rainbow
For free
Ultimate gift
No strings attached
mhm
Bc you already did all that work
tell that to the people who are trying to get the no cape
i better get that ark at the end of enchantment for myself then 
They can have their no cape and I’ll wear the rainbow cape
good luck
now!
Got it
imma explore the other end
can confirm, without candles lit, you get the quest
other downside, the rainbow is only 1 directional, so invisible texture on the back side
or bug?

the candle cake respawned too
im going to stand near it next hour to catch it snap into existence
honestly the quest name would make more sense if it was "find the rainbow's candles"
I was there, and yeah it just popped into existence like the rainbow
or something like "find the end of the rainbow" might be fun.
i'll put that in my feedback
sup my dude, that's a spoiler, so i deleted it for you, k @dire escarp?
bruh
omg I guessed a spoiler?
what did you send
hahahhha what did you say
hmm
sup my dude, that's a spoiler, so i deleted it for you, k @dire escarp?
bro we were flying and it just popped in front of us I did a 
Maelstrom don't tell us
rainbows
delet
there's some hacked content floating around, so you prolly hit the trigger
skybot is censoring that for a reason
oh ok

I literally guessed
yea
that one is too easy
guess it's going to pop out of existence in 1 minute?
in 10 secs
Eek
240 (in theory) minutes every day, so 4 hours per day to find it
damb, it took me so long to figure out the timing of the forest rainbow, i dont think i would have had a good time figuring out the rainbows if i didnt have beta
Definitely not a fan of ten minutes every hour if that's the case 

i like that it only appears for 10min/hour, except that it's a fairly big constraint for people participating in seasons
although it was confusing
IDK that was kinda fun
it was fun exploring
but I guess it could get tedious
Wouldn't like it there constantly, but so little time to find it is bothersome
It depends on whether it’s like a one week thing
Or it’s gonna be part of the regular rotation
i mean, pride is a whole month right
Like, it’s annoying to go to the Ark twice for quests but bearable bc it’s only once a week
since it's for a "days of rainbow" event, i'm guessing it's not gonna be a permanent part of the rotation
If we had to do it on the regular, it would be really bad
Welllllll.....it would be nice to have more quests in general
So kind of sad if they get removed
well ktjn said it's for Days of Rainbow event
i have a feeling we're gonna be getting more in general, since Ktjn said the designers have been looking closely at quests
still I've got the footage for my 1 directional feedback
we'd probably have this quest for 7 days or less
we already have the new coloured light quests added to the rotation, which is nice
only 10 minutes every 1 hour? :think:
Will the colored lights stay after the season tho?
yes
Oh ok
yes
Good
i've said that so many times, lol
too early to tell?
maybe that's not decided yet
Is June pride month?
yep
Ah that’s cool
i mean, in the real world
re: the colored light daily quests, it's spelled out in patch notes and i know i told you directly when you asked during that first week in beta. figured you'd write it down for your guides and whatnot.
I'm not sure what the long term plans for the rainbow daily quests yet, if y'all like them post in feedback and i can bring the suggestion to the dev team to add them to the rotation.
Ah sorry. Didn’t remember that. I remember asking about if they would stick around for the whole season
Where can i check the patch note for beta ?
we're in the middle of working on the daily quests, the team has definitely heard the feedback loud and clear that dailies are lacking. these are first steps.
Are the old prompts at quest shrines completely replaced or will they rotate back in sometime?
Today's prompt is one I haven't seen in live yet, I got smooth square brain memory Uhh something along the lines of "what is a culture you would like to learn more about?"
I answered “yogurt” and didn’t even get a heart 😛
I believe we added to the existing rotation, but the old ones may have been retired for a bit. and i believe there are some extra new ones for days of rainbow with a stronger diversity focus.
lol, 11/10 terrible pun.
I think the questions were different in live and beta today?
yeah, that would be the new prompts then.
Aw yeah
new prompts
But I’m also still not sure how it’s Thursday already so I might be combining days at this point
Any chance we'll get to relive spirits in valley that aren't hero stance? 😅
did ya learn something new vs learn about new culture
Please don't ever make me relive the one where you chase all the fragments

:0 that would be fun actually
I'd help you with it
it's my favorite spirit quest
Just not the manta ray
Aaa that one helped me learn how to fly
I've pointed it out many, many times, haha. we sat down and went through all the existing quests, in the active rotation or otherwise to identify the pain points.
Yeah that one
I have bad vision that spirit was hard 
It wasn’t so bad when I did it later in beta, but in live...oooh boy
that one was rough for me too. I had a h*ck of a time helping my dad with it too, he's blind in one eye and it was An Ordeal.
I'm nearsighted in one eye and farsighted in the other. Just like flying in general is hard XD
tbh just wanna relive my dude
poor boy's knees probably hurt
That Cheer spirit wanted so badly to be relived for months
Doesn't stop me from leading moth babies and flying into the wall while doing it XD
that's a mood
I've gotten really good at flying between the moving rings in citadel bc of moths doing the
quest
just reaized valley was the only realm with 1 relive option after this conversation 
I've sometimes camped out at that manta call spirit waiting for moths to activate it 
I’m just saying things to say things but I think valley might only have 1 relive option bc the other spirits are behind constellation gates?
Just relive all the spirits by finding a brand new moth in isle and kidnapping them
yeah
:0000
Stadium isn't but that's kinda outta the way
it would be fine if there wasn't the pressure to get all 4 quest candles every day
whoah, didnt think about that seraph
🤯 wao
The Cheer one isn’t
sera with the galaxy brain over here
But I guess I shouldn’t ask for a quest that forces me to do the races 😅
...i always thought that was the case, no one else thought so?
:0000 dark dont expect much my brain hurts thinking about this
dark you're too smart for your own good
I never thought about it lmao
also cheer spirit is really short
and easy to miss
Yeah ngl it's easy to-
wait... both are easy to miss
hahahahahha
Dark smurt and fas s t
Could make us relive one of the race spirits but i don’t know that I like that idea
i had a hard time flying up that mountain back in ye olden moth days
me too
i still have a hard time 😔
Omg I would hate to relive a race spirit. My habitual route doesn't go thru any spirits in race
back in moth days when I didn't know open flight mode existed

the only reason i knew it was there because of the bird statue, it was pointing at it
Mood mini

hahahaha shiny spirit go brrrr
but now that statue is gone RIP
I miss birdie statues all over the place. They were cute
actually maybe it could be a nice pointer for moths, the statue will be back there but servers no functionality
Ye, one of the last
I kind of wish the rainbow quests had some clue
I think it will still be noticeable
When you first fly into the ice rink you can see it
So the moth will be like
How I get up there
So it’s more of a scavenger hunt than a look all over until you give up and ask someone
oh kinda like the clock in forest for the forest rainbow
Yeah it was pure luck chia noticed it and we went there at the perfect time
Especially since it’s only 10 min
Josh dark and I did a whole valley run before we saw it 
i followed wyiott to citadel but the quest said “valley” in general
You might not even realize you’re in the right spot.
shh seraph this is my master plan to take out the return shrines :bigthink:
In fact we messed around and looked around rink for a bit. It was lucky as heckkk we were at citadel for so long
The 10 min thing coupled with there being no real indicator where to look makes it likely people will just fly around wasting a lot of time
Send in #beta-feedback? Rather than saying the realm, say the area itself?
Good stuffs for feedback
I let the team know the wait time on the rainbows missed the mark, we'll have changes in the next build.
awesome
I feel like their appearance was real subtle
