Good luck to everyone waiting for the following invite waves! Once again, kudos to the devs and mods for the patience. Keep up the good work! 
poor ktjn

Just gonna drop another love note to ktjn here for all her hard work 
here's a trick to get lots of candles: ||play the game||
Big brain answer
Regular candles won’t get wiped, right?
If the devs ever decide to do a progress wipe.... then yes?
remember that beta is for testing, so if needed anything can happen. they would probably let us know in advance for major changes, but don't expect compensation and don't get attached to anything
Can anyone tell me what's a Shepherd?
I was gonna ask something similar
Does anything happen when we fill the shepherd meter?
My shepherd meter almost filled ✨w✨
i see u
you can learn about shepherds in #590700594662998016
i can't read 😔
@tawdry tree
They mean in game shepherd lol
It’s just a thing so newbies can see you’re a helpful person and seek you out
I saw a in game friendliness meter in beta is this something new 0.0
shepherd is being beta tested. it's just an indication to new players that you know what you're doing and are willing to help them out. Shepherds see a little heart symbol over new players heads so we know they are new. new players see a fancy heart symbol over shepherds heads so they know they can ask for guidance (I'm a shepherd so I get to see moth symbol
I collect moths and speed level them up in live so I hope that feature eventually goes live)
U giys need to read #beta-faq #beta-announcements

Oof my mom is calling me to sleep 😂😂😂 but I want to waittt
I never knew that about the shepherd! That’s actually a neat idea so moths can’t get lost!
Though, i figured the mass cosmetics are also a good hint lmao
very wholesome (´▽`ʃƪ)♡
I can show you the wooooooorld
Glitches and secrets are endless
Tell me shephards, now when did you last
Let your moth decide
may i know today still have beta invite? and which time will release ? hmm
no one knows when
hehe I just made my first beta friend 😎😎
How to know the days for android beta access?
I'm waiting for 8 hours

I'm waiting for 8 hours

@spark lance Im waiting 11hours
blue moth party going to eden... lets gooo 💀
You've been waiting for a long time, Thay. And Julia. But it's okay! Patience is a skill to be polished :3
Sorry, a bit late to this topic.
The shepard system has been in the game for months. It doesn't look like its going into live for a while.... if ever. Although, I'd be happy with this system in live if it's ever worked on more.
Sidenote: from what I've seen, those who actively help other players (in what way?
no one knows....) will have their meter filled. Some players don't really want to interact with moths all the time, so they don't have their meter filled. Sometimes it goes down too.
I haven't seen a lot of people in the beta, is it because of time? Usually in the live version there are always players. I have been playing through hidden forest and valley alone though
@umbral marsh
I did wonder about that. In my time, the waves were at 10am, 2pm, 4.30pm, and 8pm. Most likely times that people sit back and play Sky (depending on timezones too)
Time, the amount of players and where they are. During the first wave there were a ton of players doing isle-forest
i was eating dinner during the first wave 
am I the only one who's actually afraid of possibly getting the shepherd badge in-game?
I mean sure I guide on my free time, but I don't want to see another moth get krilled for warping to me during my Krillvestigation......
btw, anyone have a map sketch of battlefield? I'm going to use it to draw the Krills' patterns
I was sleeping trough all the waves 😅
I was on a mountain , hiking xD
hmm idk abt map sketches but there are a few maps on the wiki
ive seen one but i don't remember where
is there a beta group/server that i could join?
You are here
Hah the slowdown is still on wow
how many users can be at most in beta?
Is it possible to get into the office in beta?
Other past players and me: * got kicked of update beta *
Me and others: WeRe sTiLl aLiVe

Sky: I M P O S S I B L E 
Should we use our same live account gmails for the beta ??
Why is this still 15 mins cooldown chat timer

Normaly its release on which time ? and how many wave its got.....
•the reason for the 15 minute slowmode is because the invite wave could come any time (no one knows when it happens), and the chat usually blows up. so if they turned it off, and the wave comes, imagine the actual chaos that happens.
•i'm not sure how many players can be in beta, but there's around 3k right now.
•it is possible to get into office in beta.
•if you still have access, the beta will kick you out unless you go in an invite wave after the time ends.
•you can use the same gmail, because beta and live are 2 different apps and have will create 2 different accounts with it.
•yeah, same. notifications can be a bit weird with discord.
dang it slowmode. i know you need to be there, but pleaseee. i need to answer questionsss.
Hello, can someone lead me to office please?
I'm waiting for 10 hours (for the download button)😭
i’m literally checking each second for the next wave.
I've been waiting for 19 hours...
I havnt sleep yet because of this Beta 🥺 my friend who are using android are in beta now☹️
Hi
hey i have a question about the new shepherd thing in beta how doez it work and how to i start working on becomming one? if u hv an answer dm it to me bc of slow mode
1 it’s not new
2 by helping other players
first eden run in beta!
the krills were so much funnier to watch hehe. they bugged out near the tunnel
How was it? Any different? @worn gate [edit your post]
100 hours later
Might be a stupid question but is the starter pack and the adventure pass free in beta?
Welp it's 12 and Play Store still won't let me install. I'm gonna sneep now, hope it works tomorrow. Goodnight guys
Woohoo it finally calmed down in here
I haven't started playing beta because of low internet, how is it so far?
I use mobile data and luckily I was able to download it at the first wave, it didn't take that much
→ I didn't know we had 15 minutes of slowmode, rip
optimized a bit better
I've been waiting for 19 hours...
@whole tusk same, keep ur head up queen 💅😌 but yeah the download wait can be long
how can i get candles in beta version?
I guess I'll set an alarm for 2 4 and 6 am
Did anyone manage to download yet?
Yes i did, and i just went for eden for two candle
The yes is apple users
Edit: WOAH still slowmode?! Owo
Welp, sneep well everyone TwT
can nyone tell me if Seasonal passes are free unliited??
Good Night Guys.. Its time to sleep .. hopefully tommorow can get it

11h of waiting like

can nyone tell me if Seasonal passes are free unliited??
@scarlet wraith yes they are
•IAPs in beta are free. (Seasonal passes, Starter pack, Founders cape, etc.) however, the devs removed the candle purchases so the players actually...you know. play the game.
•to get candles, purchase the Starter pack and Founder cape, or...you know. play the game.
•seasonal passes are free, but there's a bug currently where you can but unlimited seasonal passes and get thousands of seasonal candles. the devs will most likely wipe those though.
•yes, slowmode is still on because invite could be posted any time. if it shows up and this chat blows up, imagine the chaos. that's why they didn't turn it off.
please read #beta-faq and #beta-announcements first before asking. also search your question too : )
gotta go back to homework lol
The people with hearts above their heads. What does that mean??
that means they are shepherds, unless you are a shepherd, which means they are just starting out as moths :))
I've started to play beta, and in prairie I noticed a slight shift between the sound and animation of the spirits. Should I report it as a bug, or are they only interested in gameplay bugs ?
Any bug is worth reporting, it can help make the game better
Wait how can you tell who’s a Shepherd and who’s not
shepherds will have a heart above their head (from what ive heard) ♡
Hmm what will happen exactly when the beta on android will be out ? I mean will i just have to check on the play store and install it? (I already did read all the faq, i saw that it isn't out yet but it's still not clear for me, sorry 😅)
Im not a shepherd yet but i saw hearts over moth’s heads
Are the spirits of enchantment gone in beta?
ooo theres sheps? do they help people? or are they like veterans? edit: oh are they just new people im dumb hehe
edit 2: are they?? i dont know the definition of shepard 👉👈
Aaaaaa it’s getting late here can’t wait for the next wave >:Dc
Is it confirmed there will be another wave coming? It just seems too long in between compared to the time in between the others
they wouldve annouced it if they were done
xd
Ktjn posted: "Don't forget if you miss this wave, we'll be doing more over the next day or so for different time zones" in #beta-signup-info
so after being invited to download beta sky, does testflight take up more storage space? if so, about how much will it take? i’m running extremely low on storage atm
i forgot about the co0ldown-
(Srry if anyone asked this recently) but anyone with android cant download beta too? I know it might take a while but omg lol it has been more than 5 hours. I tried going into google play games and play store and nothing, it keeps showing the same message "at the moment, the early access program has reached the participation limit. More space may be released in the future." But I could get in when the last beta wave happend, halp anyone has any idea of what should I do? Or I just sit and wait till it's avaliable? 
Google issues can take anywhere between a few hours, 24 hours or a few days to be fixed. Please be patient
Just make sure you are registered as a tester, you can check using the link at the bottom of #beta-faq
Beta is currently yeeting all of my qr codes. Maybe it's cuz I'm a lil moth 
gonna step in here again and say congrats to all the new testers who have been waiting to help us hunt bugs

Thank you @radiant drum and all the people that work hard! It's not your fault that google is slow! 
@astral surge we gonna find the tiniest of bugs! Dun worry!!!
•people with hearts over their heads are shepherds. (at least i think.)
•you should report any bug you find.
If something unexpectedly changes, for the love of all that is good and pure in the world, please please please SUBMIT A BUG REPORT
Unless we specifically come out and say X is changing, it's probably a bug. From there I can flag it up to the design team and find out.
-Ktjn
•beta on android is out, you just have to wait for the invite link. if you can't find it in google play, go to google play games. if you can't see it, wait. google is slow. it can take days to get it to work. (i think) just make sure you're actually a tester by the link in #beta-faq
•enchantment is over in beta. you can restore ark, but there are no spirits.
•i believe shepherds help players. i'm unsure.
•there will be more waves. they would announce it if they were done. the reason why there isn't one yet is because we're letting ktjn and others rest after yesterday/today. there will probably be more today, but we don't know when.
•i believe testflight takes up more storage, but i'm on android so i can't be sure.
@dusty kestrel I just see your message lol sorry and yaaaaass 💅
Oh no all this waiting for nothing cause I’m gonna go sleep now 😫😴😴😴
How can I buy the founder cape in the beta? It dorsn't appears in the shop
You have to be in the office @thorny verge
I posted a photo of the difference between the shepherd vs new player icons. We don't know exactly what triggers the shepherd badge. A theory is that it depends on how helpful you are towards others. But there is no obligation if you have one. (I personally don't care for the badge, as it can become more of a status symbol for some players and there is the obvious risk of people trolling new players).
||office||
What's shepherd? Is it an ingame thing because I've only seen it in this server as a role.
Is there any place in which I can find info on it?
Edit: Thanks!
How do you know if you're a sheperd or not? I've seen the differences in icons, and stuff. ... but.. still. >>/
Edit:
Ty...
I'm a sheperd already.. wild.
open the friend constellation, top right corner
Does a difference show up on your name tag to others, when you're a Shepherd, or not?
/
Woah. I really wanna see the difference XD
UHHH the packs are all free, right? because I'm way too worried that they aren't ( ;∀;) → asking again because I was too worried and thanks rat!!
!betacost
Everything in beta is free, so nothing in the in-game store costs actual money.
I saw some people questioning what the friendship meter is (for lack of a better word since I can’t send a picture) and it seems to be based on your experience level in game. Right now mine says “Shepherd Guide new players through the world of Sky”
why is there a slow mode in the beta invites channel if it is read only?
I just got into the beta program... today the beta ver. was so much more stable than the live ironically
is it usually the case?
is it still chaos, for the people that said what, are people still coming at the speed of nyoom asking questions
I submitted my first bug report! 
How is everyone doing today?
Wouah I’m doing fine thanks for asking!
•the founders cape can only be purchased in the ||office||. get a friend to take you, stay by the entrance and wait for another player to come with the cape, or go to #beta-looking-for-group to find someone who has the cape.
•i believe a shepherd is a player that frequently help other players. (i'm unsure)
•to see if you are a shepherd, open the friend constellation, and it's in the top right corner. (thank you dark💤 for telling me the answer i actually didn't know that.)
•a difference does show up on your name tag if you are a shepherd.
•yes, IAPs in beta are free. (seasonal passes, founder and starter capes)
•candles are not free. they removed the candle purchases so you know...players play the game.
This might be a dumb question but if everything in the in game store is free, does that mean beta testers get unlimited candles-?
No, the dev's removed those from the store so people would actually play and test things out.
Wait if everything is free in beta, does that mean i could get the cape from the office? ohh ok thanks guys
Friendly reminder to read #beta-faq and #beta-signup-info and no you can’t get unlimited candles, everything in the store is free yes but you usually only get one chance of getting it, so if I wanted the 15$ candle bunch in the store I can only get it free for one time
Do OOB "bugs" count as bugs?
Because i actually enjoy those oob experiences in the live game
Ok I am so happy that I could test the translation button on beta. I met a Chinese and we can talk using the translation

im surprised google still hasnt made it available
Google is slow, it'll most likely take a day or two
I honestly hope OOB "bugs" will never be patched, they give a lot of diversity and fun. I think the "sneak"+chibi combo was patched and basically removed half the fun I had in the game :c
To the comment below, I'm not able to do it

@acoustic moss its not completely removed though its actually not so hard maybe some of your friends figured out already
The most recent Android beta wave is full so if you’re referring to Google updating the beta invite page you’re too late now, and will need to wait for another wave.
There's no option to purchase candles in beta... Only pass, that a bug? How do I buy free beta candles?
Edit: ok thanks seraph
so im new, can u actually purchase candles countless times?
!betacost
Everything in beta is free, so nothing in the in-game store costs actual money.
You have to actually play the game if you want candles
The 15 minute slowmode makes it hard to answer questions that aren’t yes or no. For best clarity, ask questions in yes/no format.
Beta servers are so lonely :’(
Alright, so I’ve found an exploit (bug?) now, and I’ve sent the beta feedback, but I’m positive I’m not the first to discover it. The AP pre-order doesn’t go away upon purchase, therefore allowing an infinite usage - meaning infinite seasonal candles. Of course, this is beta only, but beta is still Sky, and there’s no fun in finishing a season on the first day.
I made a song for the people who don't check the pins and #beta-faq
🎼Check the fricking pins, check the fricking pins or #beta-faq beacuse at this point its getting annoyinggggggg and like jesus christ all the questions you have have been anwserd MULTIPLE TIMES. SO FOR THE LOVE OF GOD JUST CHECK #beta-faq OR THE PINS 🎼
To confirm the spirits of enchantment have left so no way to get those items right? :(
But Snisp, you can't actually buy the pass since there is no season yet.
ETA: If you click the AP pre-order it takes you to the previous season's landing page and nothing happens.
People don't like reading. They like receiving short answers to their questions.
•i don't believe OOB counts as bugs. (i'm not exactly sure.)
•Google issues can take anywhere between a few hours, 24 hours or a few days to be fixed. Please be patient
-Mirian
but if you aren't a tester, you can't get in so wait for another invite wave.
•you can't purchase candles, because they removed it. you can only purchase the ones that come from the packs. (founder + starter.) just play the game.
•the slowmode is there in case there's another invite wave (they can happen any time, we don't know when.) and chat goes chaotic again.
•yes, there is a bug where when you buy the seasonal pass you can buy it again. they'll most likely wipe the candles.
•yes, enchantment is over in beta.
we could really use a (more consistently updated) "known bugs" section in the FAQ
You guys, please remember to be friendly and respectful towards other community members even if they ask the same questions all the time. People are new to beta, the channel is in slowmode so communication can be difficult. If you are feeling stressed or annoyed at this, please take a step back from this channel. The help is greatly appreciated, but this isn't worthy making you stressed out. It will all be okay, just be kind and patient
have you tried checking out #beta-known-issues
What do the heart symbols above other players heads mean?
I need help
There is a beta-only feature being tested the past few months, the symbols can either indicate a new player or a shepherd (basically someone that is helpful towards others in game)
You can check your own status in the friend's constellation, at the top right corner i believe
You can check your own status in the friend's constellation, at the top right corner i believe
if you're not a shepherd will there be nothing here? I have a heart in a diamond, I don't really understand
Wait how does one become a Shepard, is it something anyone can be or is it for staff members only?
it's been pretty confusing honestly, and the only info we really got from the devs is to try it out and tell them what we think it does, and how actions impact that rating
if you want to be a shepherd in-game, you just have to be helpful with other players- again, we don't really know how it works
a shepherd role here in the discord is something else entirely and has nothing to do with the game. that role would just be people recognized in the discord community by TGC for being helpful
Not confusing at all 
So my point was, people can buy the pass for unlimited time, getting that 20 seasonal candles each time how many they want. Yes the season isn't released but the seasonal candles will convert into normal candles, I cant do it as I get the "thank you for purchase" message....but my friends can. So my question was, "Can we buy the pass countless times? or it is bugged?
it's bugged
and those candles will likely be removed, only time can tell what TGC decides
Sorry this question is not really related; ||would it be alright to pre-order the season that's in the store currently or do we wait for them to announce when to get it in beta to start testing it out?||
well goodbye 5,310, seasonal candles 
And now we wait
I’ve been trying to add people and every time I click their QR link, it will redirect me to the app, I come back and click again and it just redirects me again. Is this happening to anyone else?
So beta bugs in beta feedback?
no, beta bugs in #beta-bugs-ios and #beta-bugs-android
#beta-feedback is a channel to submit feedback and opinions on features being tested in the beta- not bugs. please don't submit bugs in that channel, as it will be lacking essential info bug reports provide and also makes the work less streamlined for the devs
@potent pumice i’ve been having the same problem so what i did is i took a screenshot of the actual qr then just scanned it in game
if you want to be a shepherd in-game, you just have to be helpful with other players- again, we don't really know how it works
I got mine by carrying my friend through isle and a bit of prairie so if you want to be a shepherd in game you should probably do that lol
Will there be no beta invitations anymore?
If you are just arriving with a set of questions, please complete these important steps BEFORE asking:
- Read the pins
- Read #beta-faq and #beta-announcements
- Search for your question
@mossy garnet you've been told before that it's unknown when future invite waves will be available.
Stay tuned for the next announcement!
No spirit comes out of the forgotten ark. Is it a bug or is it normal?
Are the beta invites closed?
Idk if its a bug but a barrier wont let me through. I want someone who can get through to pull me past it so i can get the spirit inside. If u can help me please dm. I did report it as a bug. But i still need to get in. Its in daylight
For now, yes they are. They might open up again sometime soon though
@sonic pivot Beta is not closed yet, they will let us know when they stop sending out waves you just have to be ready when they send out a wave
The role of shepherd is random? I am
from #beta-signup-info Don't forget if you miss this wave, we'll be doing more over the next day or so for different time zones [...] All Invites are now full. Stay tuned for the next announcement!
the invites aren't "closed", they're just full right now until more are posted
I think they would tell us if they're done inviting testers 
I have the theory that maybe they will release the new wave of invites once wave 1 and 2 have access on the beta app. Just a theory tho 🥴
is there any reward for becoming a shepard ingame?
edit: okayy ty guys
Yes, details like device type and whatnot may help aid the patching of the bug
I think something that might work is to decrease the slow mode, and right before Ktjn drops the links someone turns the speed down, so that we could discuss but it wouldn’t get overloaded. Edit: no but Ktjn (the person who posts them in the server) is in control of most people seeing it
we don't know when links are dropped.
Is it confirmed that they will be releasing more links? Almost a full day has past where I live and still no invite link...
"Patience is the art of concealing your impatience"
Man, I got hyped for nothing. There’s literally nothing in the beta server 😔 and I feel too lazy to candle run for the ts in live 😪 What a predicament
From the sounds of last night, it’s just Ktjn herself pushing the test cap and releasing the links. Please be patient, she deserves to rest now after spending all day and night staying up to do that.
Slowmode won't be turned off. We don't know when they will happen and will not juggle slowmode on and off between waves. Please just be patient
I know the beta sounds great, but you won't get any rewards for participating)(at least none are planned)
If a bug causes your beta progress to be wiped, it won't be coming back.
You shouldn't get in beta if you aren't going to play on it, inactive players just take up space for others.
And yeah, beta isn't really that exciting most of the time- there is no reason for such chaos. You don't get anything and even when seasons are happening, they are limited because beta is not early access. We are here just to help them out even with the smallest stuff, like the overheating fix they are testing right now
so for anyone who wants to join beta...OMG YES i literally miss reliving the story line from a lil baby moth and yesss it is worth it just to get ur first star again :’ ) also ||being able to go into the office and get the blue cape for free is everything || so YES it is so worth it
Yessss the concept of being able to help w finding bugs honestly sounds so fun to me
Hope I manage to get in, if not today then whenever the next wave is :Dc
same here ^-^ ^^
Beta is to help TGC release a bug free game to the live players and us beta players, we are here to help... not neglect our 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥 accounts. A good scan through the beta version each day to test for bugs and make sure future updates are fun and secure... yes we can enjoy the account but its not about who gets all the 'spoilers' first♡
Of course, beta is enjoyable and it shouldn't really feel stressful or like a job to you. Just remember to let TGC know of all the bugs and your thoughts on the game when you're enjoying the free stuff you get and new things you see
I have been waiting since lunch and I still cannot download my app. Hope I did not mess up 😅
Oor I am just too anxious
since I already got the Google message saying "you are a beta tester"
Unfortunately google can take a really long time to actually register you as a tester. Like a few days long time
I got lucky when i got it. At first it said my account wasnt eligible so i got worried but im all good now. This is my first time in beta. But i found a bug thats so bad its preventing me from getting al the spirits in daylight on my own...
Where can I find the code for the beta invite? Am I playing it correctly without entering one?
100 ʸᵉᵃʳˢ ˡᵃᵗᵉʳ
one of the spirits at daylight is locked behind a spirit gate that requires a spirit from hidden forest- any hidden forest spirit @lavish crest
please read #beta-faq. there will be a link shared, not a code. you just have to click the link shared by the devs when it's available to join
Me too i am new in the beta and feel lucky, i reported like 4-5 bugs but i dont trash my another account its a pleasure to help us ^^
Hello guys. I wanted to ask about TIME. I know, u wrote that here is 2 weeks more in beta. But... I have 26 of January. Is it normal? Everyone has that date?
the MOTD just isn't updated in the beta
I can't download the app from Playstore
Just make sure you're a tester, and wait for Google to recognize you as one. I can take a few days, so be patient
If you’re a tester on android and you cannot find the game in the google play store, try searching in google play games. If you still cannot download the game please wait as this is an issue with google. For more info read the pins at #beta-discussion-android
Is there a faster way to collect candles? Most of us have live account too and it's hard to farm candles on both versions in a day
Don’t farm on both versions then, the devs don’t want you to be overly invested in your beta account as you can get your progress wiped at any time
@winter trout you won’t get the ||blue cape|| for free, it was only for the beta testers who helped testing the game before its release, sorry ;—; there are no rewards planned for current/future beta testers as for now.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
finding all the bugs though! (I still have 10 minutes of cooldown but yes I signed up to beta to be helpful. up until this last week I was on every single day for months. this last week was personal life issues x.x hopefully can be back on daily)
I really hope that at least most of these who registered have done this to actually help, and not for the cape or for early access to content, and will actually be active there

That's new
What I miss?
Da Goat: I've seen quite a lot of new people say they are eager about hunting bugs and reporting them!
good beans.
My phone now has "Android Android android 10" operating system
I didn't realize that error before reporting 
s t i l l w a i t i n '
s a m e ' e r e
Woke up early for Beta invite.
It's been 12 hours since I signed up for beta 
I’m probably gonna go to sleep now, dammit lol missed all of the waves😔
Better luck next time! Gl everyone!
It's been 12 hours since I signed up for beta
@untold cliff 14 here
How can we sign up for beta?
i have a questioon. srry if im repeating buut, when i clicked the link to install the beta, i signed in with a email that is not my Apple ID. But when i installed TestFight i signed in with my Apple ID. Now i have the app Sky Beta and is running perfectly but when i open TestFligh i dont see any evidence that says that iam a tester, does that mean that i have the Beta temporary until the invites are gone or i made it to the Sky Beta?
Go to beta-faq @severe flower
I woke up in morning, got the link, clicked it....became a tester...downloaded the game and started playing. No problems. I really feel sad for the people who can't do it now. It will work after some hours probably, we can only wait
What does it mean to be a shepherd and how do I become one?
@unreal idol If you have the app Sky Beta in TestFlight now, you’re a tester. There’s no such thing as temporary access until invites are gone.
@tranquil ether in-beta game shepherd is supposed to be someone who can show new players around, we’re not sure how the game determines you to be one
If anyone has any questions about invite links, or beta waves, read #beta-faq (we don’t know when the next wave is)
Is there anyone who knows when the last inviting link is open up?
@tranquil ether I’m a shepherd. To me I think of it more as a past beta tester. I do try my best to show people around and help things out 
👀
I got the bar up to shepherd but when I ||rebirthed|| the bar dropped back down to halfway so I assume the shepherd role can change?
people in beta are so mean omg.
4 person door, 4 people there, two people straight up just glitch inside despite everyone being there to open it for everyone
all i feel is pain and existence is meaningless
I hope tomorrow is a day with good news for everyone having problems downloading the app 
I'm still waiting for the next wave. I can't sleep well. I'm afraid I'll miss it
sameee
I'm still waiting to download here 😫
watching the cutscenes again without skipping feels so nostalgic, and about the shepherd.... I installed beta today for the first time...played only prairie...It says i'm already a shepherd.
I got to the beta at the first wave and my friends join me just later. I’m so happy 😭 ok no one really care but I was hoping to get in to it because I wanted so bad after 4 month straight of playing to be part of the beta and here I am.. thanks guysssssss 🥺❤️
I'm having a bit of a trouble with staring my beta acc, can someone help?
Goodnight to everyone, I hope tomorrow will be a lucky day for download Beta. And sleep all ya, take care of yourselves ❤️
could we get a heads up next time when devs are asleep and its pretty 100% sure that invites WONT get posted? 
I've been staring at this discord for 12 hours nonstop now and im tired...
Now i understand when people say beta is lonely ;-;
i swear a god , google should allow me asap to dwn the beta!
I’m about to just not join. Either way, almost every thing in beta will soon make it to live. So I’ll be able to see it there.
@tall shell no i meant i was the one with the pig tails 😂
I'm done farming in live, now it's time for my moth character in beta to burn some candles 😂
Amm. No 🌈 in Beta. Is this normal?
Invites full but can't download sky beta from playstore


I'm waiting to download personally, but I don't mind. I know it's not TGC's fault and I'm just eager to get in and hopefully get some stuff done 
Rainbow event and season of enchantment is no longer being tested in beta
If you’re a tester on android and you cannot find the game in the google play store, try searching in google play games. If you still cannot download the game please wait as this is an issue with google. For more info read the pins at #beta-discussion-android
I have no idea where to ask but why do some people have their friendliness ranking above their heads? (I’m new and I don’t have that?)
new players have that. you can't see it yourself
Just finished eden in beta and almost didn’t see anybody across during the whole maps ....is that normal ?😂 so lonely 
Why is beta always so lonely??
i didnt saw a person in valley
hooray
hey look a cooldown
what did you guys made to get 15 minutes cooldown im worried
since i cant send a message, thank you mirian for telling me that!
Nothing
Idk why 15 minutes, kinda unnecessary
Why is beta always so lonely??
When someone needs to know that out of 35k players 50 were active. Not a good time when I started testing lightseekers
That’s odd, the flying race spirits vanish upon entering the next area. I haven’t been able to collect the bow emote nor the backflip emote due to what I assume is a bug. I’ve restarted the app a few times too, nothing’s changed.
ETA - I’ve forwarded it to the devs through beta feedback, I’m just worried I’ll have to save those spirits for last, which sucks since I use bow a lot.
Is anyone else who’s new to beta loving reliving moth nostalgia
Soooo is the rainbow thing applying to beta?
People got angry and started spamming the chat so much it caused a server outage. Members come here asking questions we don't know the answer to. The slowmode isn't going anywhere, just be patient
Mono, the rainbow event is already over in beta
im already register for beta but i cant still download the beta app since yesterday
Remember the beta is for testing things, so they are ready for live
Unfortunately google can take a really long time to actually register you as a tester. Like a few days long time
Will there be another wave of invitations?
yes, but we don't know when
welp, bye bye beta slot, I'm back to sleep
200 ʸᵉᵃʳˢ ˡᵃᵗᵉʳ ᵘʷᵘ
I wonder when will we be able to test the next season. I'm so excited
Youll be able to test the next season ||in the future|| 
Omg I wanted to cry just now. I found a new friend with a founders cape, and they wanted to bring me to the office but I am only at Hidden Forest. 
If you see this message random wonderful person, thank you so much for offering to take the lowly moth who sadly had to say
when they pointed at Vault.

@blissful sinew , I just helped 4 people to get it. I couldn’t see them myself , but I managed from memory
if nothing happens within the hour im gonna have to go to sleep,,,,,five hours of sleep is uh. almost enough for a schoolday
I'm sorry to ask But I wanted to confirm as long as I wait, sooner or later I'll be able to download beta right?(I Got into the beta testers) so it can take as long as a few hours to a few days? THANKS
Lower the cool down it's frustrating 😭
We don't know
Please put your health and rest first. There will be multiple invite waves. Even if you are unable to get in this cycle, there will be another cycle of access wipe+invite waves next testing season! Health comes first before beta! 
All the new betas saying they are lonely- I was told ab this before I got in yet I’m still pretty surprised by how lonely it actually is
Just pretend that never happened-
Same! It takes ages to do the 8 person puzzle lol
Beta is not a sparkly magical wonderland-be prepared for it to feel a lot lonelier and a lot buggier compared to live.
The slowmode won't be lowered, and chatting here won't make the waves come faster. If you are annoyed at the slowmode, just leave this chat. Invites won't be posted in this channel, and we will not let chaos happen again- cause it happened for the slowmode to be activated in the first place
Please, please be patient
Remember when this chat didn't have a cooldown? Yea me neither
When the waves are done, this channel will go back to being a discussion channel. For now, we will be answering a few questions we can about the beta and the joining process
the feels when you didn't mentally prepare for no one to help you open doors...and you don't have a chibi mask 🤣🤣🤣😢😢😢😢
Remember you can always ask for a group or friends in #beta-looking-for-group! beta is less lonely with friends
Chibi clipping is near impossible with the update anyway :') Candle runs just be lonely and hard
If I'm im the beta now (i didn't had it before), does that mean im already a beta tester and will get all the updates from now?
Or maybe I just got the app but maybe not the permissions yet?
I did everything the invitation said. 
I’ve been waiting for 12 hours for the next wave
good luck for people who are going to apply and waiting for the next wave. I hope the downloading and registering problem gets solved too. Looking forward to meet you all in beta to find bugs together! Good night for now, take care...Stay Safe!❤️
Google issues can take anywhere between a few hours, 24 hours or a few days to be fixed. Please be patient
If you want to check if you're a tester or not, on android just click the link at the very bottom of #beta-faq and it should tell you if you are a tester. on iOS, it will just show up on Testflight if you're a tester
Good luck all I personally got in with the first wave but i hope you all can get in soon 
been waiting for a year and i’m finally officially in beta 😭. i never knew i was this impatient until i became a moth again. lmao
Does anyone know when the next wave is coming out
we don't know
they don't have a set schedule or pattern to happen
please read #beta-faq and #beta-announcements
My friends, from android, game has started working now. Patience is key (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧ things will start working how they should soon enough
♡Make sure to get lots of sleep
♡stay hydrated
♡check up on your live accounts, your skykid is lonely:,(
12 am from yestrday waiting for wave yessir😔
please rest!!
Tfw the second the first wave ends people asking for the next wave
y’all be patient. Beta is boring anyways lmao 
they taking long for invites 😢
Ktjn is resting
Invites will happen when they announce them, regardless of what the devs are doing
They never said when they would happen or how frequently
Get the role and be patient please
Ok únù
Ktjn and all the staffs and mods deserves full 8 hrs of sleep, 
They deserve a raise
re-collecting spirits is fun
try me
Idk why y’all think beta is some sort of crazy amazing thing. It exists for testing, and is often quite boring. There’s nothing even in there right now.
ps. moderating is voluntary work. we are here to ensure the server stays a welcoming and helpful place, as well as maintain the order, because we want you guys to have a nice time
-
No. We don’t know when next wave is coming. Whatever you know is the same information everyone else has.
-
Wow never realized how much I talked until I was given a 15min cool down- I also never realized how long 15 mins is.
-
Freaking out and ignoring your health isn’t going to help you get an invite faster. Please take care of yourself

-
As I am one of the new betas. I want to say hello to all old and new betas. Yes it can be pretty lonely but I am honored and grateful for this opportunity

What number am I on? Ahaha anyways one last note, beta or not, everyone has an important role in Sky.
If everyone was beta then the game wouldn’t really function now would it? 
Even the smallest flame can light up the darkness. Be that flame.
hi hi! do i report the bugs in the beta feed back channel?
#beta-bugs-ios or #beta-bugs-android
i used my 15 minute cooldown on this lolll
What are some examples of testing bugs [types or categories]?
please help i Already Have Harp
Hi! Anyone else tried using the portrait mode? I tried changing gfx to high but it's still a bit blurry
Examples: clipping issues with skyds or maps, buttons out of place or missing, anything abnormal to what youve already been playing in live
#beta-feedback is a channel to submit feedback and opinions on features being tested in the beta- not bugs. please don't submit bugs in that channel, as it will be lacking essential info bug reports provide and also makes the work less streamlined for the devs. please submit bugs in #beta-bugs-ios and #beta-bugs-android!
Ktjn clone reporting for duty! 
Are more beta invites being sent out I'm confused on what going on cause it says over the course of several days but it was less then one.
Beta or no beta access I low key want ktjn to announce that no more invites are being sent out so I can stop stressing over this 
Aight imma hit the hay... even though I wasn’t able to get into beta after camping the waves for 12 hours
. Goodnight everyone
i know: Be Patient
To those waiting for invites, make sure to rest your eyes from your screens♡ that goes for everyone aswell!
How about we try distract ourselves?
what do you guys want in this upcoming season? cool emotes youve always wanted, a certain type of cosmetic?
Think up something cool!!♡♡
(´▽`ʃƪ)♡
It's almost 24 hours since the first wave and I'm still waiting. I think I'm patient enough

👀 The chat has still a slowmode👀
the last wave was around 12 hours ago.. and the devs have other things to do I'm sure (like sleep, food, other work) .. they said the invites would happen over several days/times. 1 day is not a lot 
Wish all the people here very best and good luck in getting in beta 
Rip I still can't download even tho I'm in. I'll go sleep and see tomorrow morning, goodnight everyone
Generally, if you‘re in a situation where you have to say, “I’m being patient,” it means you aren’t being patient.
we’re all being very patient
It's been 13 hours since I was accepted into the program but I still can't download it ,Android here, do I keep waiting lol
Unfortunely google can take a really long time to actually register you as a tester. Like a few days long time
||sad andro||
In a few hours prolly notifications will appear
goodluck everyone!!!
Idk how but I got to join and now I can't download the app on play store 😗✌ trying my best to be patient (y'all should be patient and stop looking at the same chanel for 12 hours waiting the next wave omg y'all I-) if you want to stop stressing you really should try screaming in the window, it's really terapeutic. (Not for your neighbors)
Ktjn is doin lots of work. She need break.
i hope notifications don't come yet tbh. my brain will probably get more fried from the chat and i don't have my phone anyways ;v;
I was just hoping to have something fun to do. Atleast when I get off work I'll have an orange light and traveling spirit to hunt down in live
Gotta use my message wisely since slow mode is on 
So I'm on android and I can't see any of the enchantment spirits. Is that a bug?
Nope, the season is over in beta
Will the preorder excess candles be removed once it's fixed?
Don't get attached to your glitched seasonal candles 
Will the qualification of the test suit be issued three times today as yesterday?
We don’t know
They could happen at any time, they didn’t specify
We just know there’s gonna be at least 1 more sometime lol
Just to be completely sure.. in beta everything in the shop isnt actual money right? I could “buy” for example the adv pass and it wont be charged?
!betacost
Everything in beta is free, so nothing in the in-game store costs actual money.
Im playing in pc(not computer, i dunno how its called in english, its like a small tv but like Phone or smth) and its LAGGING TOO MUCH(Im serious, its look like 10 fps or something), but its "energy save" (UMM) mode, so i dunno why is it so mush lags(sorry for stupid comment ;>;)
Edit: X)))
If the game is compatible with your device, you should send a report you’re experiencing terrible lag
Will there be any more today 
I wonder how many times that question has been asked
Too many times
i wish anyone luck who would love to join beta.
Is there another wave today?
I was just hoping to have something fun to do. Atleast when I get off work I'll have an orange light and traveling spirit to hunt down in live
Sorry yue, beta will never be that “something fun” unless you consider loneliness to be fun.
yes there’ll be more
To answer @torpid egret 's question, I do want some new emoticons:
🟠 chuckle or giggle (the laughing one seems like I'm laughing "at" somebody)
🟣 facepalm
🔴 flex muscles
⚪ flirt
🟢 hungry (hand over stomach)
🔵 impatient
🟤 poke <target> without requesting permission
🟡 whistle (nice sound)
React with the one that you think will be most fun (if you want).
is beta on the same schedule for eden resets? (thanks!)

@umbral canopy great ideas (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧ i agree
If i have the founders cape in the normal game do i also have it in beta so i can go in the office?
along with those emoticons i kinda thought a sneeze emote would be cute hehe
There will definitely be an invite wave tomorrow, but please remember that the devs still have work, and people are reportung new bugs. So please, remember that the TGC staff consist of actual, living people, and they have needs too.
Nobody knows when next invite waves are, if you wanna ensure you recieve it, give yourself the beta member role and turn the notifications on.
By the way: beta and live are two separate apps, no connection between them, and nothing will transfer
@rough grove hi aro
•the invite wave question has been asked so many times that my brain is fried. we don't know. if we were told, it would cause camping and chaos. and if there aren't any more, they will tell us.
•if you have founders cape in live you do not have it in beta. it's free anyways due to beta having free IAPs.
I been waiting for more than 8 hours now and still...it wont let me download the beta oop
Been 14 hours for me
Hey quick question for beta. Are we able to get this season's spirits and cosmetics or is it a bug as to why they aren't showing up?
Using my slow mode message to say that I'm part of the very small group of people that had never gotten a heart from messages I leave in the meditation spots around the map 
Can a lot of people get this reaction on my messeageee pleaseeeeee 🌞
Objects and buildings disappearing and appearing at a certain distance. I don't think it's intentional for optimization purpose since only certain types of objects and only in specific places do those objects disappear at certain distances. What do you guys think? A bug or intentional. If it was intentional wouldn't it all happen in the same places. For ex in the ||prarie cave|| jars would disappear but in the last area of prarie the jars doesn't disappear???? Liek wOt cOnfuSion.
Putting all my thoughts in one comment since I don't wanna wait another 15 minutes ¯_ʘ‿ʘ_/¯ aight ill be gone again (ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*.✧
The season has already ended in beta, and we don't know when the next one is. But you can still do the light quests to rebuild the ark!
Okey if we carry to friend and get him hand in carry mode we gone up not down
@north badger when in doubt, please submit a bug report 
If I have an Android-qualified Google account, can I use it to log on to ios devices?
as long as you have beta app on your ios device, yes
We need a shorter time to send messages 👀
Noh 
are the slowmode ever going to be off again
(oh no im not annoyed since i am already in beta 😂, im just confused since it wasn't here a few days ago)
ohaithere @worn field ! Just wanted to say I‘m so so happy for you — congratulations on being accepted into the shepherd program!!

You have definitely earned it! 
Eventually! Once the invite waves are done. It was just so crazy during the waves yesterday that honestly the slowmode was needed. It was causing outages for this server!
The slowmode won't be turned off or lowered, and chatting here won't make the waves come faster. If you are annoyed at the slowmode, just leave this chat. Invites won't be posted in this channel, and we will not let chaos happen again- cause it happened for the slowmode to be activated in the first place
When the waves are done, this channel will go back to being a discussion channel. For now, we will be answering a few questions we can about the beta and the joining process
Just be patient please
I'd like to order one 15 minute chat time out please.
@worn field i wanna eat some joshur sounds like a type of yogurt (i wasted 15 mins so u better thenk me)
What slow mode are we talking about?
lol
I wonder who is doing that blue letter things
The forest rain is brutal in beta, now i know how a moff feels like 
Need powerbank 
Well if you hold the button long enough it will appear the first and the last who tapped on it the fist one who put those reactions will be at last
I'm going through beta so slow to search for bugs qwq
but its worth it :3
Catch those bugs 🐛
Has anyone on Android had any luck downloading the beta app?
Got in this morning but still doesn't let me
People kept trying to take me along to the spirits in beta and I kept smashing myself into walls to see if I could get through haha
Nope Im still waiting
Has anyone really got the ios beta invitation?
Android fellas pin on your homescreen the beta link app so you can check more often if Google play release the download/update of the beta app Link on #beta-faq
It’s been so long since the last wave 😩
helloooooo
~Hello, here to give another message to brighten up you day~
For those of you who are waiting restlessly for the next wave, or those who missed past waves.
You aren’t missing anything rn if you haven’t made it in yet.
Live is more eventful rn 😅
Now go wish the seasonal spirits farewell and return the final light.
Don’t be too bummed. Ily all.
Just- crab with crabby boy one final time before he leaves- he deserves it
Hello, I was wondering what I heard from 2 friends of mine was true. Is everything truly free in the beta?
Waiting patiently for the next beta update 
Still slow mode things are crazy here
legends say if you ask questions that are answered in the #beta-faq channel, krill and crabs will come and find you 
Legend says that if you ask a question that has been answered in #beta-faq you won't be able to get in the beta 👻👻👻
if you're happy to be a tester clap ur hands 👏 👏
Are the invites still ongoing throughout today?
@lament glacier only early this morning Catra
Will you still be qualified for ios today?
Waiting for the next wave of beta like 👁👄👁
we're not staff, none of us know whether there'll be more invites in the really really super near future, so please just wait for the announcements at #beta-signup-info
You guys, please remember to be friendly and respectful towards other community members even if they ask the same questions all the time. People are new to beta, the channel is in slowmode so communication can be difficult. If you are feeling stressed or annoyed at this, please take a step back from this channel. The help is greatly appreciated, but this isn't worthy making you stressed out. It will all be okay, just be kind and patient
@radiant drum remember what this legend said. But yea fellas, on #beta-faq a all the questions can be answered
Good morning/afternoon/night to all
🔺READ THE #beta-faq #beta-announcements BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS! IF YOU DON’T KNOW SOMETHING THEN NEITHER DO WE!🔺

Ily all but if I see another question that can be answered by reading then nnnnnn-

tired
is the beta-invites(ping) role given to people who want to be pinged when there's a beta announcement? if yes, where do i get the role 😊
Sorry if this is an irrelevant question but does anyone know if the updated Ark is eventually going to be in beta, because as of now there's no means to do that season in beta (since its almost ended) unless thats a glitch on my end, and the Ark is ded and dried up vs live
the season has ended already in beta
Multi-player doors are near impossible...no one around.
the light quests to restore the ark can still be done though, as they were a permanent addition to the game
you can always ask for friends and a group in #beta-looking-for-group
@trail glade Beta is an abbreviated version of the live game for the purpose of testing the functionality of the game. If they want to test parts of the next season players are given access but it’s not the complete season! They test things that sometimes don’t make it into the live game.
3 am gang....repre..s...en........
👀
Yes I have been awake for last 6 hours
Its 4am in my country and i still dont feel that tired-
Beta chats ded 
Beta have just a lot of reactor lurkers
Hi folks
Beta chats slow mode you meant
So will there be any more beta waves today? Or do we know?
We don't know
we don't know if there will be any more beta waves today. they come if they come.
Vault is hard on beta because there’s no one to help open stuff 
If you think beta is empty now, wait until some testers realize beta isn't really all this hype. Make friends, we need each other to test
If you think beta is empty now, wait until some testers realize beta isn't really all this hype. Make friends, we need each other to test
@radiant drum preach omg lol. A lot of dropouts all the time
It really isn’t all the hype tbh but it’s nice being a buggy little moth who has a 10% chance to fall through the floor with every step 
Isn't it already 6pm in california? if they werent intending on sending any new invites in the first place they just could have said so 😦
I love the “glass” tree in the vault, it’s a nice addition! I think I’m going to get really sick of those platforms higher up though 
luna 
Good night my friends~
@wise bobcat
All that was stated as far as invite waves is that there would be multiple of them spanning over a period of a few days. Ktjn has other duties working on the game than just beta invites. If you have the role, then just be patient!
Oop
wait- they live in california?
Good morning, a new day for me here
I hope everyone get enough rest
For all who haven't got the invites or can't download it yet (including me
), let's be patient and wait together. I'm sure it'll be worth the wait
Oh I found new friends here, and we practicing bug hunting in live version to prepare ourself
Raise your hand if your still waiting to download the beta! 
3 AM club here, struggling to find something to pass the time 
Haha what if they started revoking beta access for bad behavior on discord? Like using emotes.
They never said they would send invites frequently everyday. Literally all that was said was “We will be sending out new invite waves at various times throughout the coming days”. Be patient
@radiant drum I have to admire your patience.
There was a lot of chaos with the first few invite waves I’m sure they’re doing a cool down before sending another one again.
I want to try beta so bad but I'll wait, I guess
@feral rivet in the beta, the season has already ended
How do you even join beta?
@peak narwhal I am a tester but still can't download the app
I have a feeling me being 12 hours behind Isn’t going to help my chances of getting into beta 😉
About beta progress wipes, what does it wipe exactly? Does it wipe out all your stars? All your spirits?
So are there just. No seasonal spirits in the beta?
There isn’t a season going on in the beta. Enchantment ended
It's rabbit season in beta.
hmm i ady sleep arround 5hour lucky for me still don have beta invite yet@
I want to try beta so bad but I'll wait, I guess
@Nakiiru._#6034
Why do you want to try Beta? What do you expect to find or be able to do that is not available in Live?
Will the upcoming season first come out as a beta?
I got into the first wave yesterday solely because that Google play decided to not work when the invite was first sent out... thank you google play
Woo bug filled season sounds great
Tbh I just want a preview of the cosmetics lmaoo
TGC will need to test the season so beta will get a bug filled version of the season before live gets the full version
Not a great reason to get beta nlightfeather... beta is for testing not previews
Beta has nothing that live doesn’t already have rn except more bugs and loneliness
People who are wanting it for the spoilers- you can find plenty of betas who actually post spoilers on YouTube 👉👈 orrr just read- #beta-faq Or #beta-announcements 💀😂
Keep in mind tho- most of the “spoilers” just stay in beta and don’t make it to live- so don’t trust everything you see 👀👀
Someone can help me uwu
You know the the first thing most of us did when we got into Beta? AFTER UNLOCKING ALL PORTALS 😂 ||Find a new friend who got Office cape to take you to the Office so that you will also get the cape and 100+ candles and you feel rich! Bahahah it was utter chaos the other day my new friend was ubering 6 people to let them get the cape in the office!||
But don't we need to unlock all the portals first?
@uneven dust
Then, AM BEANIE, that would be the second thing we do. wink
The moment people without the cape realized I had it, I had like 5 people offering candles to add me and take them 
I clearly obtained the qualification for the test service, but when I entered the Google store and opened the game, I found that the font was still red and I did not look qualified
inb4 someone says they saw me typing in invites channel 😛
Hello Ktjn hope you had a good rest 
When there's only 6 people in front of you, suddenly poof left you alone
I slept til 3pm, so I'm quite refreshed. Thanks for thinking of me 
That is good to hear!
Waking up refreshed? A miracle
People don't stress yourself too much it is harmful 😇
thanks for all you do ktjn! glad to hear you got some rest; it was well deserved! 
I hope all are waking up fresh. Man, I stayed up late last night and woke up early today to play the game. Hahaha.
I'm just seeing what they say
@vapid briar over here gettin sleep while everyone else staying awake waiting on those invites- the irony
Fr tho- y’all need to go to bed.
sneep snorp everyone
Will qualifications still be issued?
how do you get the friendly ranking thing?
I guess I should be grateful for my roommate's panicking because they left the pizza I the oven to burn. If they hadn't I wouldn't have got my invite xD
I just can't wait to check it out tho. I love being in betas, there's just a certain amount of fun being a part of the magic. Even if it's currently kinda empty.
Furiously refreshes Google play
I would like to know when the next link is available
Been 15 hrs still no download button
no one knows when the next invite is, just be patient 
I’m in love with the portrait mode uヮu
we don't know. no one knows until it's posted because if we did it would cause heavy camping and slots would be filled up faster. the chat would probably be chaotic too. all we know is that there are going to be more waves. if it's ending, they'll probably tell us.
this is what fixed the android issue for me if it will help:

hope everyone is having a good day so far
and congratulations to everyone who got into beta
and those of you who didn't, i hope you guys can in future invites 
So are they bringing more invitations
i never go to bed ehehe
, or at least until they make the invitations available
and I hope it is soon
@vapid briar over here gettin sleep while everyone else staying awake waiting on those invites- the irony
Fr tho- y’all need to go to bed.

Hello. If someone can help me on the pv I’ll be thnaks lol. I just wanna ask something about beta uwu
I’m new at beta so idk too much about it lol
I have 4500 seasonal candles and I keep getting more even though they’re gonna be wiped :]
I have 4500 seasonal candles and I keep getting more even though they’re gonna be wiped :]
@novel aspen maybe it's a good way to test what's the candle capacity limit of Sky
@spark lance we ask members to not share personal info. Please remove the number from you post... or a mod can delete it I guess
just woke up
go get some sleep @ everyone who's in a timezone where it's mid-night 💤 
well darn, I just finished my sketch and now I really have nothing to do to keep myself awake lmao
guess I’m going to bed as well
(though I just know the invite will be posted the second I turn off the light like yesterday)
Is the season candles will turn to normal candles or it will wipe out after season? (In beta)
Eh you all stay awake for games?
in my country, it is 4.30 am💤
How ya guys liking the beta?
KTJN is typing
Yes
It’s 10am and I haven’t slept since I woke up at 7pm and found out I missed every wave
So now I wait
I swore we fixed that bug with the infinite preorders. Guess it's back. 
Hee hoo
👀
Please get sleep, beta is not worth wrecking your sleep and health.
I'll start yeeting y'all from the server if I have to 
i promise it’s only 10:37 pm here it’s not that late yet

yeah its 10.37 i already wake up
I'm waiting to get off work
I’m going to do a little experiment and see what happens:
or 
Hehe 
The first wave accommodated most of the US in the early-late evening
I swore we fixed that bug with the infinite preorders. Guess it's back.
@vapid briar oh how the turns have tabled
👀
You know what’s cute? Seeing me in the background of someone’s screenshot cause of the small beta population

you guys won't stop til get beta, huh?
Excuse me, I would like to ask You guys in the game you can use two-dimensional code to add friends or use two-dimensional code links to add friends? Neither I nor my friends can. I think it might be a bug.

@sharp brook
You mean QR code
Will anyone be awake for the next 10 hours? I really need a favor. I, for some reason, don’t get notifications from the server (tried many things don’t ask) but I do get a DM notification on my phone. If the next wave comes, could someone DM me to wake up? Please react with ❤️ if you can help.
I had the same issue, @sharp brook. Instead of copying the link, send it directly to the person. When the menu pops up in-game for the sharing options, click the discord icon (if you have them in discord). Otherwise, copying the link and pasting it won’t work. Make sure to report it!
@sharp brook here’s another option if you don’t know them on discord: Open the friend request and take a screenshot of the code. Go to where you make friend invites and hit the button for import photos. Choose the screenshot you have
However, we are too cute to wait for the link for beta🥰
Guys, does anyone notice the date when u open beta lol it said January 26 2020
yes, the date hasnt been updated since then
is the wave coming again?!!?
btw, how much is the founder edition cape in aud?
I've been told that the wave is tomorrow
We don't know when the next wave is coming; keep an eye out in #beta-signup-info! also, all IAPs are free in beta 
Ahhhh so many people still here


Leta bink 
Yes I waited 15 mins to send this. Gn everyone~
It’s probably good they’re waiting for a while bc everyone was camping and that’s why the next time it only took 2 mins for it to be full
Yuh I’m planning on sleeping tonight lol
Why we have waiting 15 minutes to send another text?
Still cries in android 🤖 
To prevent spam and chaos
I don't know
#beta-known-issues for all the new folks
good morning.Beta-invites?Please……
When we are done with invite waves for this test cycle, we'll turn slow mode off once the frenzy has abated.
Excuse me, I'd like to know if there will be any qualification for test clothes today.
Will the chaos ever stop tho
Will the chaos ever stop tho
that's up to you all
i bored -<-
is the QR code bug happening for everyone? I've accepted several without issue just by clicking the link 
I'm referring to the post in #beta-known-issues lol
hi bored
[Question]
I can download the beta from apptoide, or should I wait until it is finally available for the Google play store?
Hey, does anyone know if the candles for the new season bundle are glitched or just a stand-in GUI for the next season? It shows as Enchantment but we already have the next season’s symbol, unless that’s also a stand in
@vague sparrow downloading the game from third parties is against tos and will cause many issues
It shows enchantment be has the devs haven’t made the assets for the next season
It’ll get fixed whenever we are told to test the season
I just resized and now I’m size 12

I've been waiting for 26hrs (for the download button)... theres no hope... I'm out, back in 2 days lol
Good luck
Thank you for your answer.
@rustic imp
@signal magnet ❤️
However, I have tried all these methods and still cannot add them.
@sharp brook
it worked for me yesterday
Chinese players name Dark Dragon as Pipi Shrimp
🤣
awwww
Lmao
@shrewd granite That's right
hii. so. i’m new at beta. and i would like to do some questions. if someone can help me on private i’ll be thanks uwu
Gn all present and future betas~ just be patient and go get some sleep- never know- you might awaken to an invite with your name on it into the world of bugs
hii. so. i’m new at beta. and i would like to do some questions. if someone can help me on private i’ll be thanks uwu
@spark lance check #beta-looking-for-group
Hahaha
hey guys
Wait so there was no next round wave and I waited hours for nothing??
i no have beta F -<-"
I cant wait for google to let me down my beta. Im going around my neighborhood flipping tables until i can download
gonna try asking again.. regarding what was posted in #beta-known-issues, is this something that is happening for everyone or just a lot of people? I've accepted several QR codes without issue just by clicking the link, are these friendships gonna disappear/bug out or something? 
since the slow mo is not removed that means there will be more invite waves??
i once heard the expression “the watched pot never boils,” and just realized that that’s been me staring at the invite channel all day 
@narrow lake it’s affecting everyone, you’re supposed to click instead of importing it which is why you didn’t have the issue
I hope it opens again for you guys, we need help opening doors in here 🤣🤞
After being a moth again, I just realized that Im so natural at being a moth.. Bonk
Does the game always auto-update on TestFlight so everyone is on the same version? (Asking to know if I should include version/build number in beta feedback along with iOS version/phone specs.)
TestFlight doesn’t auto update
10 thousand invites go out and people still can't get doors opened on beta.... the most
of moods.
@vapid briar so u need push more invited to us more 10thousand

can i post my feedback on beta-feedback board? it’s empty...
For feedback device info isn’t necessary, unless you’re writing a bug report, then you’re in the wrong channel lol
It’s empty on purpose
hello guys will the seasonal candles in beta turn into normal candles after the season finishes?
Your messages will get sent to a Dropbox for the devs to read
F in the chat for the nonexistent beta invite 😔
I could add 100k more and it would prolly be the same. people want to be in beta for status and rewards, but not actually test. which is why we're going to kick everyone out more frequently.
The slow mode is gone? Oh nvm lol- also yeah that is understandable, some people just want the free stuff and the status-
Will there still be invitations today?
@prime chasm there will be more invites but we don't know if it's gonna be today
tbh i wasnt expecting to get it but i am happy bc it gives me stuff to do and i would love to help out tgc 
Or they play for a day and get bored. Or encounter a bug and quit forever...completely not understanding what the purpose of beta is, lol.
I forgot hypesquad returned
Even people in this channel that begged and harassed for invites in the past, as soon as they got access they noped out never to be seen from again.
Only 50 active players at once with 35k testers total before the wipe 
I could add 100k more and it would prolly be the same. people want to be in beta for status and rewards, but not actually test. which is why we're going to kick everyone out more frequently.
@vapid briar
they just want something to show off or proud off for a while if they can't unlock in the live version
Yes, I have many former friends who are no longer online.
@vapid briar In fact, most people want to experience the new season
Those people can experience the season once it goes live
It’s not gonna just stay in beta forever
Only some report the bugs
In fact, I think the feedback bug channel is not convenient, many players do not know how to feedback
Waiting for the update
The seasons are pretty short in beta. Some can't even finish it, like with rhythm (12 days for testing
) but that season didn't need too much testing, so it depends
im sure this has been answered, but im android and when i clicked the link it said "welcome to the testing program, you are a tester"
but i couldnt download the app (still cant)
is this just a bug or something?
(im lazy)
does google/apple not give the option to kick inactives? 
also might be an idea to have some kind of quiz to sign up to beta, like how discord does for alpha testing - include some questions to make sure they read the FAQ, state reasons for wanting to join, etc. they did this to keep active testers and remove inactive ones/those who didn't read thoroughly or answered incorrectly
@vapid briar
It's not uncommon, I've seen it in other games. It's the nature of games and beta and unstoppable hype trains, so I don't fault anyone personally. It takes a special kind of mindset to play two versions of the same game twice, especially knowing the beta can be wiped at any time and all the intrinsic value of that progress lost. It's emotionally draining so it takes a certain kind of diligence to not get attached to beta (my advice is take screenshots and relish the memories) and develop a certain kind of entitlement to beta, despite our efforts as devs to remind people that it's voluntary and comes with no guarantees or promises.
i adore sky, it’s such a big comfort game for me and i atleast somewhat wanna help the game progress and grow and change throughout the years- that’s mainly why i wanna get into the beta lolol- free things should be just added bonuses not the whole premise- the whole point of beta is to test and report bugs so when it goes live it’s fully polished and ready
hi, someone help me? I can't download the beta
If you’re a tester on android and you cannot find the game in the google play store, try searching in google play games. If you still cannot download the game please wait as this is an issue with google. For more info read the pins at #beta-discussion-android
Same, sky’s such a wonderful game and I’m super happy I got beta so I can try to help test it to make sure that when official things roll out, live players can have fun without encountering bugs or stuff that might disturb their experience 
I won’t quit on the beta anytime soon, unless I’m unable to get in during the next wipe. I’ve been on live sky for 6 months and am 100% completed on the constellations, this gives me a new perspective on the game! I like beta testing this so far. So thank you 🥰
I'm trying to find bugs but cant find any that people have already addressed 
When will be the next test wave coming? I can't wait anymore!😫 I have missed all the waves yesterday...
I love beta, I’m never gonna quit. Even if I don’t get into it next wipe, I still won’t give up on it! TGC is a amazing community, thank you.

I'm trying to find bugs but cant find any that people have already addressed
@foggy marsh don’t worry, when the update with the new season comes out there will be plenty of bugs to hunt down
Are we meant to play beta from scratch or is there some way to carry our spirits and wings across to play... this is pretty labour intensive
I’m completed as far as live is currently, and I adore the game so much it’s such an honour to be able to help out with its future progress
I am a new beta tester.. what should i be doing for the community? Of course finding bugs but should i play the game like normal till i encounter a bug?
Because we use anonymous public links, we are unable to track who clicks and whether they're an active tester. Even if we essentially interviewed and vetted testers, the links would get shared elsewhere and still fill up with people circumventing the process. It's part of why we try to isolate beta chatter to this corner of discord and even I get pings from other fan servers i'm in of people copying and sharing the links externally. There is never a really good process, especially when it's largely just me handling it by myself on top of all the other daily responsibilities I have. For a tiny indie team like ours, it's just not feasible to have an incredibly involved process. Which is why we opt for the first come, first served public link because it removes any bias on our end.
The current beta build is near being a release candidate, so you may not find any major unknown bugs right now. Once the new season is ready to test, there will be lots to dig around for.
@fresh forge Feel free to try to break the game more than usual. If you can find edge case bug, it could help with the polish of the release a lot.
The point of beta is to find them, after all
Never had the opportunity to be a beta player, but thank you for the amazing efforts you do for this beautiful game and community, I couldn’t get the other waves on time but I hope I get in soon, can’t wait to help you out in every way I can!! Thank you again and don’t forget to rest!!
it’s been a long day of waiting and i’m just about ready to turn in for the night. here’s to hoping the waves don’t end while i’m asleep! good night, and to all the beta players, please find some bugs on my behalf

so where exactly am i suppose to look for a bug..
If you don't manage to get into beta, and you really do want to be a part of the process, you're welcome to pop into these channels, look at screenshots and videos and give feedback. Just be respectful of people's time if you're asking tons of questions, chances are they don't have much, if any, more context than you do and will probably need someone like myself to come in with deeper explanations.
You don’t look for bugs the bugs find you
Yes, to the team working so hard to make things happen right now, hope you still get time for yourself. When the pressure starts to become overwhelming, eat some good cake! Oh, by the way, I have been submitting bug feedback through TestFlight email, that works too right? ✨
Yes it all goes to the same place
I feel like it's weird for me to enjoy finding bugs
I saw earlier people saying beta shouldn't be fun but.. it's fun for me to try and break stuff and help the devs 
Top up in Beta are free ?
Hope you guys get the beta in the next wave

is everybody here losing sanity due to the lockdown or the peer pressure of waiting for the beta wave?
oh btw @vapid briar , if we cant upload a bug report due to discord size limit, is there any more option to submitted it?
Why would it be free if there's a price tag in the shop? It's for testing so it won't caused actual money.
Because beta is for testing?
does android beta have portrait mode yet? I can't find anything about it
Not yet
I especially want to thank Ktjn and all the mods who's been working hard to maintain the community during this time where all people are hyped for the new beta invites. Thank you for this opportunity and your patience with us 
You rang?
Hey guys, I was checking the shop and where did all of the candle bundles go?
Ah ok! I thought it might be a bug XD
you can't buy candles in beta
There are no candle bundles in beta shop
they would be free and people would just get them without actually testing the game
remember we are here to test the game
Does that mean the beta has ended?
it's not a free preview of paid and new stuff
Does this mean that no new test link will appear
i hope slow mode is off by the time the new season drops 👀
🤔
is there supposed to be a double heart event in beta? i just traded with a friend and we each got 2??
May I know if there are any new test links? Because many people are still waiting for new test links, if there are no new links, I can tell them.
Why can't mine still be installed Android phone I got the qualification at 3: 00 yesterday afternoon
😔
They will announce when a new wave comes out 
Unfortunately google can take a really long time to actually register you as a tester. Like a few days long time
can i ask any mod here or any one who is responsible for the bug report?
||Is there anymore option to submit bug report than discord because discord is being strict with the file size limitation?||
spoilers for mods or higher
Im so glad i got mine to work. Although it was playing with my feelings for a bit
My friend and I have waited until now, and still hope to have new test qualifications. I believe many people are waiting like😆
I was working on a bug report like 10,000 times because I kept on having typos and my report wasn’t worded like I wanted it to. But then when I FINALLY see that it looks good I submit the report. And I made. Another. Typo. And. It’s too late now. I confused in with and :(
You have to get someone to uber you @carmine scroll (also please spoiler ||office||)
I was in the beta earlier and at the ark, the spirit still gives out light quests. Does this mean that it will still be available to new players?
Ah thanks!
You can submit your video in #beta-screenshots-videos and copy the media link and paste it on your bug report. As long as you don't delete it from the server, the media link will work and the server upload limit is 100MB here
Yes, the light quests and ark restoration are a permanent addition to the game
Help guys im at 8players door prairie
Excuse me, I'd like to know where most of the bug feedback players come from?
Does anyone know the time for the next beta?
Nope
is everybody here losing sanity due to the lockdown or the peer pressure of waiting for the beta wave?
oh btw @vapid briar , if we cant upload a bug report due to discord size limit, is there any more option to submitted it?
@surreal shadow The workaround is upload to #beta-screenshots-videos and then include a link to the message in your bug report. You can copy message link by clicking on the three ... to the right of a message and selecting Copy Message Link and paste it into your bug report. Since the server has so many nitro boosts, the file size limit inside the server is much larger than the DMs from skybot.
waiting for the beta wave
I hope it’ll come soon, I woke up extra early for this. Slept like 3 hours
I didnt sleeped for like 21 hours till now lmao
get some sleep you guys 👀
I just wanted to pop back in and see if it was still crazy because Google takes forever to do stuff, lol
Yep, it still is. 🤣
Bless the mods for handling this without flipping out. Thank you for being here.
Please dont sacrifice sleep for beta, sleep is gud
Hey guys, we all want to help the game but sleep is more important, sleep some - also, if you don’t sleep you cant help the game 😂
The prairie spirits are appearing on their maps. Idk how to explain it. I mean that before the dawn spirits appeared in prairie and prairie spirits on forest. Their shrines. Is this a change or a bug. I'm not sure if I should report it
Your health is important, please get some sleep..
if anything seems unusual , just assume its a bug and report it
the spirits appearing in the level they are in is a recent change
Stop it
Get some sleep and get some help
Hope you guys get the beta on the next wave
(Because I'm playing alone)
I know this is probably gonna be a waste of my 15 minutes because discord is weird with this servers cool downs and only counts down while in the app,
But random question where can I find music sheet 11?
!wiki
Welcome to the Sky: Children of the Light Wiki! Sky: Children of the Light is the newest game from thatgamecompany, the creators of Flow, Flower, and Journey on the PS3 and PS4. The game is...
Go to sleep guys 
soon we are all going to receive a notice about playing Sky responsibly with all these people staying up as a health hazard 
Still waiting 😆😆😆😆😆
Guys, ahmmm. Are the spirits in ark missing? Or just me? 🙈
the season already ended in beta
Somebody know when the invited beta ends?
I'm on android and I don't get it, the part where we needed to hurry was click the link or download the beta ? Because it says I'm a tester of it but I still got nothing to test on the play store. I've already waited 22h and already slept, lol
hhh i know it’s silly but i’m just kinda paranoid i’ll go sneep and the waves will sneak on by 
Same tho
Hi. Amm. In Beta. Only one Graphics right. I tried to cycle at the settings but it's seems the graphics doesn't change.
🌝🌝
Graphics depend on your device. Some devices have the higher lightning bolts disabled so that your device doesn't burn up in your hands
Playing Sky Beta is so strange. Everyone's a seasonal candle-rich moth wearing either a red or blue cape.
a whole day has passed but still I cant donwload the beta on palystore.. although it says im a beta tester do I need to wait again ? for another day? or let it go becuz its --
Unfortunely google can take a really long time to actually register you as a tester. Like a few days long time
-Mirian
CURSE YOU GOOGLE
Are we waiting for google to be fixed? Can’t we pick android users later 😅
Does eden work the same way for beta, like does it ever reset since the time doesn't really move forward in beta...
In my country is 1:47 am 😪😪
Time works the same in beta as it does in live, things are just scheduled differently
the message of the day is just not updated, it doesn't mean we're in january
basically time doesn't stop if you forget to change your clock's batteries
Whi i can't enther to the beta if im a beta tester?
Maybe you lossed your permission like beta tester
So I wanna ask about the seasonal pass, is it for free in beta or u have to use real money?
free
It is free
free
!betacost
Everything in beta is free, so nothing in the in-game store costs actual money.
For those of you trying to get into android but can’t download:
Unfortunely google can take a really long time to actually register you as a tester. Like a few days long time
-Mirian
Beta will show cost so you can see it but it won’t actually cost money
Beta and live are separate. No transferring of progress
Is beta convertible to live?
Beta Sky App still says that programme is full in playstore😭
Does anyone have any sort of idea when the next wave is coming? It’s been a while since last night (for me)
We have no clue until they do put out the next wave, unfortunately
@everyone go to bed early. Unless it's daytime.
•if you could convert live data to beta and vice versa, people would exploit the free IAPs.
•we don't know when next wave is. they never tell us. because it would cause heavy camping and the chat would probably get chaotic.
i don't go to sleep until like, midnight.
idk i just have a habit of going to sleep late then waking up early lol
I would like to go to sleep and someone who has slept calls me when the new wave come hehe 👉👈
Apear to me when i go to download the beta Is full try later some one apear too?
I get that you guys don’t want to miss the next beta wave, but sleep is more important than a game 
oh...
GOOGLE NEEDS ACSENDED BOOSTERS LIKE SKY DISCORD
@granite bear I can probably, but I can't promise that I will (we already have a day, but I will try to follow as often as possible )
By the way, my friend said that the translation doesn't work
But it works for me ;-;
When I translated from English to Russian
Кстати, у всех ра
@tough thunder yes I'm a few hours away from waiting 24 hours for it lol


The same😢 (And I hope the slowmode will disappear soon
How does one activate portait mode in beta?
Guys, sleep is more important and hygiene as well.👍

How does one activate portait mode in beta?
@smoky kite In the settings menu, iOS only
🇼🇦 🇮 🇹 🇮 🇳 🇬 😩
•the slowmode will not go away due to the invite possibly appearing any time. the chat goes chaotic almost every time an invite goes out, and people don't want to deal with that.
•portait mode is only iOS in sky's settings menu.
Portrait mode 🤔🤤 wanna try it
Please go to sleep, i hope when your done sleeping the wave comes and theres a spot 
Well, goodnight everybody. Get some sleep! Beta will more than likely still be here when you wake up ❤️
Well, i think i’ll be heading out as of now! Been spending most of my time sketching~
Hope ya’ll get in and I hope ya’ll have a good morning/night!

What is the "A mysterious ranking of how friendly you are" is this about the shepherd being able to see hearts above moffs heads?
How do you become a shepherd?
33000candles🥺
Ima finally sleep after playing a mix of sky beta and mc and yt
when does the new season start in beta? :o
Am sorry for asking this if its out of topic, does new born moth cannot burn dark plants? Or actually we can?
... Cuz if we can, i might found some bug then... 🤣🙏
Sorry y'all
🥺
Anyone from android who got in beta in the last wave yesterday ? Did the download button appear on playstore or not?
I hope Google's work efficiency is faster. To hear your description. I have been looking forward to the test suit very much.
@icy cove not a bug, all plants have a winged light requirement to burn
Me and dont apear@dim lagoon
Wait wuuuut. Is it normal to buy anything from the shop free?
Can I still get a test suit today?
The things in beta are free and will not cost actual money
So the manta pass is free ?
Remember to read #beta-faq before asking here! A lot of your questions may be answered there! And read the pins too!! 
Hmm is Portrait mode suppose to have the fisheye effect?
When does the next season beta test usually start?
And why do these chats have slow mode now ):
Aidaitabird dunno why but it does.
Hecta sometime closer to the end of enchantment on live, probably after the end.
Slowmode cause it got crazy in here with people spamming right after beta waves
Everything is free in beta. But candle packs in shop would break everything. Its in the #590700594662998016
Google is having some issues getting people in. You can only wait and it’ll take a while. Maybe days for you to download
I thought you can buy candles in beta
waiting🥰🥰
do you guys can download the beta now,I just can not
Hello why is there only one spirit on paire bird nest i can't find the nodding spirits I can only see one spirit
hope the beta wave comes soon >~<
Still waiting

i waited for one day, and i still cant download beta
that's the least wait time, it can take more, please be patient
@dusty peak There is no nodding spirit in Bird's Nest. The greyed out emote is a bug. You can only find the bird call there.
Ik it's a google problem but I think I just wanna make sure I'm ACTUALLY in, so.... Is there a way to re-check that you're a beta tester?
Btw Nod is from Season of Enchantment which, I'm pretty sure, ended in beta by now
Ty @manic hollow


Could we write the bug report in our native language (i.e. Chinese) instead of English? 😢 Or everything we write needs to be in English
Get it! Thanks!!!
I want to ask that question, too
Ktjn said the date being wrong is intentional, why is that?
We aren't allowed to know 
They hit us if we ask 
Tested on boosted def mode again. Butter smooth in Beta and less heat up. Can't we to get that fix in live.
Compared graphics from both live and beta in Boosted Def. No difference❤️ ❤️ ❤️
BTW Please reduce slowmode timing.

iirc they wont remove slowmode bc they dont know when the next wave will it, and they arent going to turn it on and off constantly
Ik it's a google problem but I think I just wanna make sure I'm ACTUALLY in, so.... Is there a way to re-check that you're a beta tester?
@static sigil
From what i know , when you click the link to become tester , if you already include as tester, the page will be have a word like "welcome to testing progran" and there was a link to the google play (link to the beta sky in google play)
If you have this, which mean you already beta tester and just waiting for google 👌
Ktjn said the date being wrong is intentional, why is that?
I have more important things to do that write the MOTD calendar for beta <_<
🇭 🇦 🇾
For beta do you have to collect wings and stuff? And what happens if you play beta for fun and not help? Just wondering
what is MOTD?
waited 20 ish hours, i think it’s time to sleep.. praying there isn’t a wave when im asleep again
1
Motd is message of the day. It’s the message you see when you load up the game. 🙂
Beta is a version to help spot bugs, the devs will fix it and then the community can have a better gaming experience. Please don’t get into beta if you’re willing to play like you play on the live version. You’re making it more difficult for the devs and for the people who want to help them ( I said like in the live version, cuz I was answering a person that asked what would happen if “we played beta for fun and not helping” sorry if I wasn’t clear enough)
@cursive tendon we all are waiting, please be patient and don't ping Ktjn unless it's urgent
How long is one beta period?
@faint drum Chinese players wait for beta online. You worked hard, by the way
@cursive tendon it's rude to ping wen they r offline and u have to say something so trivial![]()
Oh the next wave still didn’t come 😲😱I was waiting before I slept but it didn’t come now it’s morning 😱😱😱
That reminds me I caught some bugs earlier. Yeah please don’t plan to just play beta like the live version. Beta is supposed to HELP the developers. We understand you want sneak peeks of the seasons. But please consider the staff team’s feelings and they have other things to work on ;;.
Can I sneep in peace now?
@spark lance @burnt sigil Being in beta doesn't mean you have to constantly search for bugs. Playing just like in Live is equally important, creating user data information for TGC. You're not making it more difficult for anyone by just enjoying the experience. Sometimes playing normally is also the only way to discover that something isn't working as intended. 
What does MOTD stands for? It's mentioned in #beta-known-issues
message of the day
Is everything in Beta’s shop free? 😂
11 PEOPLE SAID IT IS SOPHIE WHAT IS THE REAL ANSWER
We really gon communicate through edited message huh
Lol we’re cool soph @short gale
HOLY COW A 15 MINUTE SLOWMODE
Ok wow it must be reeeeeeeaaaaallly spammy here
Lol all the reactions XD
Oh I was thinking the ark shops lol, every purchase in beta is free lol
Sorry @acoustic star
YES WE COMMUNICATE THROUGH EDITS NOW
So the hype for beta is still here huh? Not going to sleep I see 
I see
How can I purchase white candles in sky beta because I saw just season candles for sale.
||office||
Get some rest everyone. We have no idea when the next wave will be. Beta isn’t worth sacrificing your health for, there will be lots if opportunities in the future 
Why is the server in beta so quiet? I sometimes struggle to open up areas that need a lot of people
theres not a lot of people in beta compared to live, better to ask in #beta-looking-for-group for help
I wonder how many people fussing over beta are adults

Is anyone else having an issue where after you complete a spirit there's like 10 seconds where you can't move or do anything even after all the cut scenes? It's not a big deal I was just wondering if anyone else experienced it
Wasn't sure if it was a bug or not
i’m experiencing it too
I'm almost certain that's normal, it's probably the candle wax from the spirit quest registering
is there any way to open doors in beta solo?
i just started up beta yayyyyyy
hm slowmodes still on so I’ll use my message to chat
@mild orbit If you’re experiencing a bug, submit a bug report in #beta-bugs-ios or #beta-bugs-android
Slowmode countdown over! Now I can chat! YAYY!

I still have slowmode??
i death -<-"
Slow mode was always? :--:
(sorry for offtop)
They where gone🦔?
I still cant download the beta app although i joined beta yesterday is this normal? (I use android btw)
Winged Light in the bridge part of the Hidden Forest appearing to be collected when it's not. Returning to the area does not resolve the issue. #beta-bugs-android
@spiral hull same!!
@spiral hull just wait for a while(3 or 4 hours or maybe days idk) u will get access to it...I waited a day
I’ve submitted so many bugs today (ok maybe only 4 but still) that ive memorized the current sky app version, the build number, and my phone information
I can't download it either lol
I know
Great job, ssrendipity! Embracing the purpose of the beta. 
Any android beta testers that can download beta? 
I can't download it😭😭
Reminder, Read the FAQ ( #beta-faq ) if you have a question! If you believe it wasn’t answered there ask your fellow community members for assistance! If they can’t help you can always ask the Devs, I believe
Beta invite waves takes time! The devs want to make it fair that everyone around can have access to it!
People who mention with the WAIT emojis upset me more than actually waiting since 24 hours lol
@rugged pivot to submit a bug report scroll all the way to the bottom and click on the purple flame react, from there the bot will DM you the steps to fill out your report 
typing out WAIT in the reacts takes more effort than the time you've been waiting, so please be patient
Oh, my God, I freaked out and got out of beta testing because there was no way to download in the play market. 
I should have just waited. 
Well, I'll wait for the link
is there any more waves?

THE HEART DOUBLE GUYSS ( ˘ ³˘)♥
I rather have people having fun while waiting than the other way around 
i need sleep x.x
Go to sleep then
Ppl reacting with WAIT emojis are not having fun, they just wanna help those with questions under this Slowmode. Especially because Android people can lose their beta membership from not waiting…
When we all using reactions to answer ppl quetions
what a nice social place

I have been waiting for eight hours, will there be any more today?
I have been waiting for almost 24 hours

Hello everyone! How are you doing?
Greetings to new beta testers 
I have some work to do today, but I'll find more bugs anyway 
Maybe there is no new invite link today
i dont think they’ll be doing any more tonight, that would be unfair for different time zones as Itd be too similar to the last wave. i’ve been waiting almost 24 hours but i’ll just sleep
Me too.. it's been actually 24 hours. But we can do nothing against it than wait.
Go to bed please, for the sake of your health and comfy bed is waiting for you
maybe the invite links were the friends we made along the way....
I made 2 lts of coffee just to wait if the app is finally available to dowload since imma tester already lol so i get y'all. But yeh we should go to rest :c
since you're already a tester, there's no need to wait for google to recognize you as one, it might take more time than you think, so please rest 


What is The MOTD in beta?
I saw it in #beta-known-issues
🇹 🇮 🇷 🇪 🇩
To all beta player you can get double heart, just info ( ˘ ³˘)♥
I know getting a chance into beta is very exciting, but consider the fact the staff also has other tasks / meetings to do. So please rest
If they are doing invitational waves there will be a few every couple of hours to cater timezones. So get some sneep folks
Hi, how can I get the beta on iOS?
I am subscribed to news and device preferences
@wise bobcat what?!!!!
@spring folio check the #beta-signup-info page and follow the instructions there.. remember to copy and paste the link into your browser!!
How do I find these letters? I can't find them!> 🇹 🇮 🇷 🇪 🇩
@spark lance
get some sleep guysss
Does the capeless cosmetic really cost 99 ascended candles or is that a bug?
Is the slow/wrong wing buff count a known problem in the beta or is it only me having the problem?
nO :c i cant sleep unu
lmao I'm glad I went to sleep, I didn't miss any wave this time
🌝🌖🌗🌘🌚🌒🌓🌔🌝
How about we not do that
@weary imp what i have to copy?
@tough thunder they edit to remove the links when its full, but you will see on the next wave, depending on your device, there is a link to copy also, be careful of sending your location here.. i dont want anything to happen
any beta players wanting to be my friend in the beta world?
Disappointed with Google's efficiency, I have been waiting for 24 hours and still won't let me install it....
I wonder how many beta waves there are now
Yup still can't download
Google usually takes a few days later
i’ve been waiting for beta invites to release new news 

Just happened to wake up (2:13am). For those who are waiting please get your sleep, drink water, and focus on mental health before thinking about this. Love and peace to all!!

!betareward
The Beta Cape was a one-time reward for the testing period prior to the iOS global launch. A future reward is not planned.
Pls don’t neglect your health for beta, it’s not worth it 
all here waiting for beta? -<-?
It has been 21 hours since the release of the new test link, and I am still patiently waiting for the next link to appear
Will the new season start in beta once the current season ends?
aahhh good morning! just woke up, glad i didnt miss any waves whoops
and yeah guys dont neglect your sleep schedule for this :<
I don't know if it's just me but I just did Prairie and there's nobody else. I can't get through the 2 player doors. Anyone experiencing this?
Welcome to beta
Its been 24 hours since I got on the beta and its still a no. Haha. Alas. I guess I should sleep so I can work in five hours.
Invites waves are over till next season?
@wise grail u can try asking in #beta-looking-for-group but yea, beta be like that. empty and difficult to do multiplayer doors

I'm not waiting. I'm going to play games.
Beta can get really really lonely sometimes! Prepare to do eden alone or ask in #beta-looking-for-group 
Yes remember there’s significantly less players and most may be sleeping from staying awake to get the beta. Best to make a few active beta friends~
Hi, I got an invitation for the beta test, but I can't download it from the playstore
👁️ 👄 👁️
👉 👈
🦵 🦵
I'm tired
@willow sierra same :)
(But honestly i hope y'all get beta
)
🐛 bug (bug)
To all beta player you can get double heart, just info ( ˘ ³˘)♥
@prime igloo Read pinned posts #beta-discussion-android (archived channel) there are some things you can try. Other than that you just need to wait for some hours or days until Google processes your qualification. (sorry I corrected the channel name)
Ugh im very tired does anybody knows if it comes in the next few hours?(;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`)
@wise bobcat thats fake right?
Waiting for the next invitation

i crying bro. :'v
The wait is really long, I hope the next invitation will come as soon as possible, during this period, let us wait
I've been looking at this screen for nine hours, but I'm afraid to do anything else 
I'm not angry about it. I just hope we can get results
Ktjn worked really hard with invites yesterday, so please to those who are mad for the waiting period being long, the staff is trying their best to post the invites fair for all time zones. They are human too and need sleep.
(#KtjnPlzSneep)

I joined the beta lmao, I feel bad that I haven't found a bug yet-
Anyone who want to play Hangman, killin time? Hehe

Hope you guys get the beta
I got it on the first wave
I need to take a break. Good luck!
I'm a little tired from waiting so long😂

i go to sleep a 10 minutes now
or wash my face
Go to sleep guys. Sleep is more important
I'm tired of waiting :"(
I want to sleep

oh no
Do you have to wait 24 hours or 48 hours? *for installing beta
why don't just open the invite wave? I'm not in the testing programme anymore so I won't be active.
@spark lance I've said this 15 minutes ago but here we go again.
Ktjn spent nearly 16+ hours yesterday with the invites. TGC is trying their best to post the invites fair for all timezones. They are human too, they have a life and need sleep too. So be patient for the team's effort to make the best for all players.
I wanna eat Oreos and milk with sky Oreo 
We're not included in the rainbow quest, right?
FWIW: when you are in beta, just play like you normally would unless there is a patch with specific new features you are asked to test. If you encounter bugs, it’s great if you report them, but tbh most of the present ones have already been found and reported. There probably won’t be any significantly new things to discover until new content is released. Please don’t shame others for wanting to just enjoy the beta experience. Playing normally gives TGC plenty of information also. 

this is hard 
@cursive crater go to sleep
Long wait
Thank goodness I am working from home. This way I can keep an eye out for the next test wave. Good that I can multi task too.
I think I even multi tasked when I was asleep. Listening out for that ping 😂
If I change my phone to another one in the future, can I reinstall the beta and use my character again?
This is very important, where can I install it and do I need a link?
Where is the rainbow in the vault located?
@minor saffron You can because your beta membership is tied to your Apple ID (if you are iOS user) or Google account (if you are on Android), and not to your device. You should link your Sky account to Google account or something to recover the beta progress in the future

Does anyone know when the new season starts in beta?
@livid oak when it ends in live
Are the beta invite waves done?
When is the next wave

We won’t know when the next wave is. Waiting around won’t make it come any faster. Just make sure you have the beta invites roles and you’re set for when it comes if it does 
(Also make sure you’ve allowed discord notifications in device settings too!)
Ady on the notification but its show cause many member inside the channel .. so only will push notification by mention only.. how can i turn it.. so also need to look at the channel anytime because release the invite no any mention😫😫
ok well I'm convinced Google Play hates me

@south bloom Nearly my 3rd time saying this, Ktjn have worked over 16 hours for the invites yesterday and the staff has a life, theyre a human too who needs to eat, sleep and rest. So please be patient. The staff is trying to be fair for all timezones with the invites.![]()
Edit; Also, #KtjnPlzSneep.
