watch juggler get released the week of the event 
I mean it won’t affect you if you have over 500 candles saved up
I.e: Nobody 
reading the update log and
Fixed a bug that allowed the candle to be played like an instrument
hello??????
A nice little event for the 1% of sky 😂
That or crab call. I will be so upset
Dont speak the words into existence
i wonder if it made any sound
probably not
Now that the android updates finally managed to roll out for me, I can say that the switch area is absolutely disorienting 
I'm so used to turning my camera around ingame. so having it like that feels weird www
I've been saving about 600+ candles as we speak, and even the current rainbow QG tree price would still set me off www
Those two are my dream spirits haha... 😭

ive seen somebody with over 1k candles saved up 
Yeah... my friends the same way 
Honestly how many people even have the cape in beta, like, unless you stocked up on seasonal candles.... 
Wouldn’t it be reasonable (considering how much the cosmetics are atm) to cancel the TS? Like until after the event? Cant put in a cheaper one because it’s all completely randomized so.. TT
Tbh, if once the event goes live and the prices stay the same, I won’t bother with the cape especially if it’ll be during a ts week. It’s a bummer, but priorities 
I hear what you say but I have a better option: free TS
Just like a TS, but everything is free
Maybe in theory although it wouldn’t make that much sense gameplay wise to skip a TS, not even financially speaking that makes much sense 
Perhaps, though it seems either skip the TS or lower the cosmetic prices
with our luck juggler will arrive the last week of may
The ts will eventually return again however the pride cape could possibly never return so its up to you to decipher which one takes precedence
Older players would probably r i o t 
is there somewhere I can sign up to help beta test the Switch release?
@teal spear, read about requirements to join the Switch Beta here: http://bit.ly/SkySwitchBeta
TGC wouldn’t skip a TS just for a event, they haven’t done that before. I agree with lowering the price though, it’s unbelievably high for a cape
Yeah, I give up on these "personable" spirits. They seem the same to me.
Sign up ended already :(
Is there an update on android? 
@teal spear sign up is already closed ;-;
Have they ever had a cape this much?
aww phooey i missed it :( thanks anyway
Nope. My theory is that the cape is so high because the IAP is all going to charity so TGC might be worried on making money
I’m actually surprised the cape did not end up as the IAP along with the pin, it seems much more desirable IMO
Only half the proceeds are going to charity... oops sorry i though you meant the nature event 
pride flower pack is 100% charity similar to days of healing
h-how do i get to the mario map? o:
Ok what I am missing the playground....can we discuss that here?
maybe because it is a non-star symboled cape
non-star symboled capes are commonly IAPs
anyone wants the white flower to return?
Do we know which charities yet?
The new players and all the others who are low on candles are going to have to work for it to get the cape. And it makes little sense that they would only have the flower as something to buy in the store. I really hope the traveling sprit isn’t one that is really desirable for everyone. With the added cost of candles for this new cape- which is unbelievably high for all the new players and all low on candles, this will be very difficult. I agree with the idea of integrating lower prices on traveling spirits.
That’s not a justifiable reason imo we didn’t ask for it to have a special star symbol as players, if thats the case it should be Iap...
Somewhere in the Wasteland social space 👀
Should the pipe shoot on the right side of playground connect top to bottom? (Overground to underground)?
I wanted two earrings like those of enchantment

sadly there are no plans for ultimate gifts return yet
What if next year TGC releases the second earring 
I’d kill for that past Phoenix cape and mask
Mhmm that's why I really wished it to be 2 pieces >< when my friends wear that ult gift with short hair OMG IT'S COOOL when on both sides 
it being one sided is supposed to mean something
Does anyone have trouble opening one of the shops on the boat in home space?
I personally like the 1 tassel, but it would be cool if it was customizable. Like you can wear 2, or 1 on either side.
Blessings from the rainbow spirit have an error. I cannot access my friends list now. And only 3 maps of spirits show up in the constilations.
would hate it if it become an IAP, ||just like what happened with santa hat|| I'm too poor to spend real money on it, I got a whole month to run for it and yeah
I like the cape, I'll buy it, but only with candles ||or hearts if they plan to change the price||
yeah, me too 😭 hope that so much
It is mentioned on the TS information thingy when you use !ts
Hey beta testers, remember to read the patch notes, update channel and known-issues to avoid pouring extra effort into testing and reporting!
The side scroller area doesn’t really make sense in the wasteland as it’s just?? Another type of Home but platformer? It is cool to have the little donkey Kong Mario area to sit and vibe but all of the portals make no sense because you’d have to go into wasteland and THEN go into a portal leading to another world which is double effort? It doesn’t really make sense to me for it to be there idk?? It would be neat if it was a toggle or something instead
The Santa hat was iap when it was first introduced which is why it stayed that way last year
its supposed to be a small fun little easter egg i think
That would be nice !
The camera on that Playground can't be moved
It is funny how i accidentally jump into Isle hahaha
175 is still not a reasonable price point though, fair enough the design is unique and it has special stars but just because the currency system is easier to gain doesn’t mean they should hike up their prices of free event items - specifically capes
it's supposed to be like mario I think-
If you disagree with the prices, I suggest putting it in #beta-feedback. The devs will read it and take your thoughts into account
To be fair, the prices might still change, the cape might end up being closer to what the days of bloom cape was, so let’s just wait and see how things will go from here.
no point getting fussed over it at this moment.
It is actually fair
If it 175 candle
It maybe was 17,5$ in IAP or 18$ in IAP but they changed it to Candle because a lot of people been demanding Free Items for this Events
I would rather it be 175 candles than IAP.. bold of you to assume I’m not a broke college student hahaha

Already have, its okay to discuss here as well 
Better 175 candles than 20$
Start saving

Yes it is. But I'm just reminding those who haven't yet.
As someone mentioned it earlier, 175 candle capes (plus candle cost to unlock the tree) will bring back the grindiness to the game which the new light system and new social mini games were meant to eliminate. Plus don’t forget, Live players will have less notice to be ready than us here in beta who get to know about such events weeks in advance.
Doesn’t the Nintendo pack seem,.. very cheap though? For the amount of items
$30 for two capes, hair and instrument + 75 candles is cheap compared to sky’s standards.
It’s 30 dollars
it does but i ain’t complaining 
30 dollars.... cheap...?
Can I used nintendo pack items on my mobile phone after buying them with my switch?
Are you being serious? 30 dollars is the price of 4-5 indie games on the switch... switch players are completely different to mobile gamers. I wonder who their target market on the switch is because boy they seem out of touch imo
@jolly bear bruh you know downloading APKs is against the Terms of Service, right? It could cause a lot of performance, account and malware issues for you. Trying to use APKs will result in download problems and may result in account data loss and inability to contact TGC support. APKs cannot be used to bypass the device incompatibility and do not help TGC with beta testing at all. Please don't use them or discuss them here.
Not necessarily that it's cheap, but that it's cheap in comparison to other IAPs with less items. It isn't actually cheap at all
When you consider the fact that most items like the tea set and stuff costed almost 30 for a single item.. getting 4 items for 30 (2 capes, 1 hairstyle and an instrument) does feel fair
Also remember they used to charge $20 for 2 items I](i.e gratitude pack and winter musician pack) so this is actually a $10 discount
You have swing for example for £20, but with the Nintendo pack you get two capes, hair, instrument and 75 candles, so yes, compared to sky’s usual price standards, it is cheap
heck yeah, for 2 capes, 1 hair, 1 instrument, and candles? i think it’s cheap in my opinion.
usually we get stuff for 20 dollars for a cape and a cosmetic
besides sky is free in the app store for nintendo users so i’m not gonna complain.
Many f2p switch games follow these pricing systems? I don’t agree with prices a lot of the time but the devs do know what and what doesn’t work
30 dollars is expensive you could buy a full Nintendo game with that amount it doesn’t seem worth it for the items you get compared to 9 dollars for a season pass.
having those items is still extremely expensive for cosmetics for any game.
Your not factoring in that this is switch exclusive.... the switch player base will not fork out 30 dollars for cosmetic items when they can buy multiple full content games for the same price.......
We can’t make assumptions on what other people will or will not do
remember that each of us speaks for ourselves, not all switch players, all android or ios players, and not all Sky players either
The capes are also sort of a Tgc office cape type of thing... so I’d go back and say, the new playground area may be improved and worked upon just like office and the high cost is really just funding this future endeavor
And there are bound to be some audience for it
i mean- you’re getting the sky game on the nintendo switch FOR FREE. don’t you think it’s a little fair that they make it 30 dollars ? some of the money might be going to nintendo though. think of it that way. you’re choosing to buy something from a game you got for free??
I don’t agree with the pricing of items at all, don’t get me wrong, it is expensive, but when you look at past Iaps tgc put out, it is cheap. That’s my point. I’m surprised they aren’t charging way more.
It might be better to make the capes separate and let people buy one for cheaper. After all, you only need one to get into the new area.
I wanna wipe (erase all data) in my android phone, will i able to download beta again? From playstore
I don’t know 🙈
Android is not Special because it is never been in the Game that was come from IOS platform
Let's say it is just a Stepping stone for TGC to spread their wings since not everyone have the Money to buy Iphone or any IOS device
Which is because Iphone or any IOS device are very Expensive in MarketPlace, unlike Android which is cheap
No it’s really not fair because Sky on Switch would be prices more around 19.99 at most. You could buy breath of the wild on sale for 30 dollars 😔 instead of a hair cosmetic two recolor capes and an instrument
I know people try to justify IAPs because it supports the team but the prices have been unreasonably high. Making designs and putting them on capes are not that hard to do for 3D modeling after it’s already been modeled and done it’s painting over it.
Do people forget that events are supposed to be fun and manageable for everyone no matter their play style. You still think 175 candles is fair? Considering the most expensive TS cost 195 alone and there will also be TS showing up during the event. And you know, friend constellations cost candles and the constellations themselves cost candles.
You argue unique wedge design, but Earth Day cape also has a unique design and cost $5 for charity which is equivalent to 15 candles. Also, Christmas Cape and Bloom Cape are both event Capes, no they don’t have a unique wedge design, but they were still 60 and 70 respectively which is STILL LESS expensive than this cape even when ADDED together.
The Christmas Table cost 150 candles and at least it had a function of talking to 5 other players and the candle on top could charge your wings justifying its price.

bro. you’re getting sky for FREE. if you buy the pack it doesn’t make any much of a difference because if you buy the pack some of the money will go to the nintendo company (that’s what i heard)
Android users : I already got the update!! But wait, it's downloading still 
I really do not care/like the switch capes and instrument. I'm ok with the hair. But for $30 definitely not. And I'm not even sure I can Buy the cape, with all the different lvls that I have to unlock just to get to the cape. And the ts won't help when it comes around the same time.
another thing for everyone to keep in mind while discussing prices: different people all have different ideas about the value of their time and money, so each point of view here can be correct without everyone agreeing
correct me if I'm wrong, but here's what I understood from what you just said:
you're essentially saying that poor people shouldn't get stuff because they're just a stepping stone?
Mod here to save the day!
We can agree to disagree 😅
I’m talking about the people trying to justify the 175 candle cost of rainbow cape. It already cost 30 candles just to unlock it.
If you’re going to give it to the Nintendo company then just buy a Nintendo game tho ?
Also I’ve seen more complicated designs for season pass cosmetics like the bird cape in Dreams?? Gorgeous, all of those cosmetics cost 10 dollars. They could tone down the prices or at least split some of the cosmetics if you wanted to go alacarte
The capes may be easy to reskin, but you aren't factoring in the time the ocarina + notes and the hair took. There's also the new area to factor in. Sure it's a bit pricey, but downplaying the team's hard work isn't the way to change that.
Guys, these prices will most likely still change
It's simple: if you think it's too expensive, don't buy it.
I know quite a few friends who would purchase a 30 USD IAP to support a free to start game than fork over 30 USD up front for a game you might not like.
or fork over 30 USD to a gacha game made by a rich company 
Heyyy don't make my android feel bad! It is more than that ʕಠ_ಠʔ
I totally agree with you on that point and the rest. Its just way too expensive rn. The cape, switch bundles are just expensive. And I'm sure that week a really expensive ts gonna come.
looking for supporters for opinions also won't help communicate your feeling to TGC. #beta-feedback will help with that, and the choices you make in how you play the game do that as well
then that would be extremely unfair because you’d have to spend MORE money and i don’t think anyone wants to spend 50 (or less) on a game that’s free in the app store on your phone 😩
that’s true but this IS beta stuff we’re looking at, the cosmetics are still a work in progress if you couldn’t tell how rushed and messy the items looked.
i think the pricing of $30 is fine imo, they did the fortune pack with 3 items for $25 iirc ,,, so in $30 pack they added one extra item to me i guess it’s fair
It’s not so much the fact of IAP exists but the fact the team is charging too much for what it’s worth, sure people can buy it but like someone else said Nintendo players could instead purchase another game they want. It doesn’t seem like a great way to earn money it just seems very odd. When people say they’re putting work into the ocarina and the capes, yes it was a lot of work but?? Season of dreams had complex capes and instruments and it was all a lot more cheaper than IAP so I don’t understand TGC’s logic.
So not to say they SHOULDNT do IAP because they can do what they want, but it just doesn’t seem like they know how to price things.
my potato android is a pretty good friend and warrior, I've been playing, using and updating sky for 8 months with like 40 mb free of space, deleting and downloading apps again 
"if u couldn't tell how rushed and messy the items looked" 0.0 lol they are likely not gonna change the designs so u basically just indirectly insulted tgc XD
no no if you look at the winged light on the capes you could tell that it’s like… kinda rushed, you know what i mean? it looks choppy 😭 i’m pretty sure they’re gonna update the items tho- they’re not just gonna release items in beta and just be finished designing it. the whole point of beta is to try the items out n stuff and criticize
correct me if I'm wrong, but here's what I understood from what you just said:
you're essentially saying that poor people shouldn't get stuff because they're just a stepping stone?
@spark lance in the world of business on each game, yes, it is a Fact that can't be denied
But i don't think TGC is that kind of Company, they probably just need time to adjust everything
Since from the information i gathered before. This Company actually pretty new in Mobile MarketPlace. They were only in PS or Consoles for years before they entered Mobile Marketplace.
So, in simple way, this Company still Learning how the MarketPrice works for their Game.
Finally updating beta!!!
OF COURSE it will remain free! They can't just change the pricing of the game... Oh u deleted ur message.... @worn lake
@barren falcon I didn't focus on the winged lights XD but I am sure that they are gonna let it stay like that, unless if u give them feedback of course, idk about refinement but there have been cases of tgc changing designs of different items so we might aswell have some hope but not a big deal if they don't actually change it.
you know, if people accepted 30 dollars for the beta cape, this switch pack should cost like 3 times more in comparison 
don't give them a reason to raise prices lol
Am I the only one who just likes the designs of everything we got? I love the cape, tassel, flower, hair, Ocarina, heck I even like the switch capes. I’m only really bothered by the cost. And I’ll add this, I’m quite an avid CRer. I also spend on getting nearly every IAP. This is NOT about me. I CAN afford that cape cost, but moths can’t and that just saddens me. Why should they be forced to choose between TS or event? Some of you will say skip TS, but what if it’s something they really want? Juggler, Crab Call, you know? If you miss it, it might not come back for a whole year. =_=
They just shouldn’t have to choose between 1 cape vs TS items or heck...adding their friends and upgrading friend trees? You know how long it takes me to upgrade friends because I just can’t afford it myself? And I CR EVERY SINGLE DAY!
prices this cost that..... am i the only one wondering how we’re gonna play instruments on switch 
They can change the prices of things while they're still in beta but not in live unless they want backlash
The boat at home is broken for everyone?
When i try to open the spell shop, the game crashes
Yayyy Android, got in! Finally!
yeah imma have to tell them about that 😗 usually the WL on the backs look smooth n stuff
Touch screen on switch so I think just that way 
I believe it's good to call out on some stuff tgc does, criticizing can be good.
I respect the artist but we can't just courtesy their work.
as in the old tire2 capes, I'm so grateful those changed cos they were pain for for the eye.
I like then too! They are so unique! And also, about the moth part, every new player HAS to skip some events to progress or progress to participate in the event, nothing we can do, happens in almost every multiplayer game :/
i think that's a pretty good feedback, you could write it in #beta-feedback if you want 
i...how did i forget switches have touch screens 
Am i missing something in this mini game , or is the purpose ‘how to get rid of my winged light in different ways ‘??
The whole expensive candle price for the cape I have to agree with peeps it’s too expensive. The whole point of the new candle system was as they claimed, to make it more relaxing and less candle grinding for people who couldn’t handle full CR every day. But raising the prices this steep cancels out any attempts that were made in trying to make it less grinding
just saying my opinion here, i like everything EXCEPT the flower pricing, that is way too much for a little flower, like 19$ for a flower, it's more then half the price of the nintendo pack! and yes i did write already to them about this (also i think the link ears should be the same color of the head and not grey/white)
Whenever we get into these discussions about IAPs, I always think about how politicians talk about the economic policies 
It’s true, but it’s crazy they might have to miss all of this because they can’t even afford to pick even one of them. TS can cost up to 195 so far and if they want to buy some event items there just is no hope beyond buying packs or relying on veteran friends to guide them through daily CRs for the whole month.
when I'm trying to unlock things with friends I try to split the cost unless I have a considerable amount more candles than them
I hope TGC is going to change the prices of the rainbow items and it does seem likely considering how expensive they are right now
is the friend button fixed? i guess not. okie
the only part I don't like about the debate is IAP or not, it's probably still IAP and I can't get it
If you want to give feedback about what's currently being tested you can go to #beta-feedback
Hey I signed up for Nintendo Switch beta, do I have to wait for a mail or something in order to get in?
I think it's expensive like that because it's the only actually paid item, and TGC plans to give part to charities and to themselves, of course
Does the ocarina sound like the bass a little too much? It doesn't sound unique enough to me . Love the cute animatio when you play quick notes though ...
the flower is $20????
idk about y’all but i’m not paying 20 dollars for smth that looks like the babyfirst logo 😭
Well the candles do kinda make it worth it. Calculate it!
@zealous badger moths really don't have to force themselves to buy the cosmetics they really want, we all can get another chance, tho what tgc could do is make starter events and cosmetics that are moth friendly, that would really help then enjoy the game :D
@wicked harness Very sorry for the ping, but link's hair is a spoiler because it's currently in beta, that's why I used the command
worth considering that the candle price of free items may be jacked up in beta because of the free candles that come with the switch items
I would think the touch screen will help with that? I am curious about the chat feature, if it would work in game?l or if we need to use the Nintendo chat app for that? As far as I know not many games have built-in char feature on the Switch?
With the charity IAPs it seems many people get hung up on the price because they think of it as paying for that item directly. It's more like you're paying for the donation and you get a flower item in return. That's why they're priced the way they are, because the donation is factored in.
Thought in my Opinion about which one we should do more, TS or EVENTS ?
■I do answer with TS or Travelling Spirit.
Why ?
Because first of all, The TS are Random and we might not get what we want and will be very long time before we got them to came back again. The TS have wingbuff that we need. And not every Spirit in TS are our Target but they definetely became Top Priority with how we unable to do any Old Seasons anymore.
■Why i don't choose Events ?
Events will always Comeback at Next Years and the Years after that. Just like how other Events comes again with their cosmetic.
When i saw that Spirit Branch, i think they gonna added more items in that Branch for Next Year, Days of Rainbow. This Event we got this Year is just the Beginning of our Event Loop.
If you can't get it this year, you can get them Next Year.
It is as simple as that is.
they could lower the price and people could actually buy it? and give them and charity more money, just saying, everything it's so expensive i never have the opportunity to get something cute or cool, just cause i don't have a job?
Hi anyone experience crash while tried to open item on home little ship?
the flower is technically a small gift with candles for donating 20 dollars to charity
this is the same tactic with days of healing and it managed to raise a million
link exists as a character outside of sky i could have said that even if he wasnt in beta and if no one said anything nobody would know but now people know lmao
There's just a difference between constructive feedback and being rude or just complaining. For example, instead of saying something looks "messy and rushed", you can tell them exactly what you dislike about it and makes you feel that way: Is it the color, maybe the shape? The harsh dark lines in the Switch capes are a bit too jarring for my taste, and it doesn't look good against the red and blue colors imo, and that's a much kinder way to say I think they're ugly. It's important to remember TGC artists are human and they work very hard on the content we see here, so being a little more constructive and descriptive goes a long way in helping them improve 
I think the flower price is fine. It’s for Charity and as someone else said, it’s the only event IAP.
@ornate summit That’s kind of my point over all. All these events are just skewed too far in the favor of us veterans. A lot of Moths can’t even hope to get that cape even if they want it.
i think the cape with the flower could cost together 20 dollars, and the tassel would be free
or cape and tassel, and flower free
I agree, also its the exact same design for the healing pack flower.
just a recolouring. :pensive:
this is one feelings that no one wants anyone else to feel, but everyone has to feel it, the disappointment and guilt of not being "smart enough" or "experienced" to get items like from ts and events
Check on #beta-known-issues
But it's meant to be a donation item and it comes with candles
TGC isn't making any money off of this
Isn’t like all of it going to Charity this time tho? TGC isn’t profiting off of the recolor. Also, I missed white flower so I’m hyped about this one.
The Moths or anyone who is unable to get the Cape and Tassel or Flower will be able to get them Next Year
The Event always comeback
No need be panicking over something we already know it always comeback
Yaaay beta is open!
right, i didn't mention it so ty.
my comment was mainly for the other person saying it as if it was just an insult.
is if we shouldn't say that something looks bad. 💛
true events always come back and the old content associated with it, including the new content so i would tell moths to not worry rn
we don't know if it will tho 
leaf cape for example wasn't intended to come back
True but sadly that's the nature of every multiplayer game :( moths will have to grow themselves up and wait for other chances they might get. The only way I think, to make the moths enjoy the game more is to make some special starter events for them, as I have said before. I remember when I was a moth I had to skip the ts (I didn't event know what it was) and also the events, but I just focused on completing the game and now I am a full on veteran! Fully satisfied but not downplaying ur point at all! Some moths leave the game because they just can't find motivation because they couldn't get their cosmetics.
Hopefully tgc makes the Link hair and ocarina a separate iap that everyone can buy

a year is way longer than you think it is, also we don't know if it does come back, the first candle event items are from feast and sky (not before global launch) has only been here for like 3/4 years
I bought the healing event flower, and I'm going to buy the pride one too. are they similar with different colors? Yes. But sometimes you just have to wear a different color flower. And both resulted in charity donations.
Where is White Flower? It hasn’t come back, has it? I know it wasn’t event specific, but IAPs usually come back too.
Hmm I don't know where that could be, but we could jump in Beta and try searching it together! As testers, it's important for us to look for things ourselves before asking questions and submit any struggles to TGC in #beta-feedback. That way we are helping many Live children that could have the same questions 
i mean depending on the date rainbows event launch, we will also have excess candles converted from this season we can spend to pay the high price of the rainbow cape
(iirc assembly ends mid june)
that's not the point here, but ye i am definitely buying the pack.
I have the healing pack flower so that's probably why I'm a little disappointed unlike u, i understand why ur gonna be happy with it. and ty for support 💛
The white flower was for the days of healing event, we don’t know if it will return this year or not
for next days of nature I wonder if we're gonna wear a tree for charity
Right feedback channel
I think I found it
wait...
It's an amazing area haha! Would love to bring my friends there and surprise them!
have TGC already mentioned what charity institution/s gonna receive the proceeds from this event?
The new area is kinda barren I hope there'll be more added to it
It is interesting... The piranha plant look-alikes could be toned down. Barely touched one and almost lost a star. 
it will be in the #news when they announce
About Moths or New Player
I can only Suggest for TGC to give them a Special Free Pack for them to Start
Not the one in Shop that need be purchased by money
Maybe a new Cosmetic for every new Moths (?)
Giving a new Spirit that resembles the New Players, with spirit tree branches filled with some Cosmetics that can be purchased with Candles and Hearts.
I like it, I think it’s a fun addition and beings back memories 🙂 Those red crystals though are deadly. Imagine poor Switch moths first experience is the pity room in Sky…
also, I think you shouldn't buy an item because "it's for charity" or "it's for supporting TGC"
you should buy it because you want it and have money to buy it. it took me the whole days of mischief event to decide if I should buy the witch hat or not, and I bought it and I wear it to this day. I don't have much money most of the times and I'm pretty happy that I liked it so much, and that's the point, you get something you like, not something trending or for status
I feel bad for TGC artists. Whenever we start talking about price, their work gets caught in the crossfire. Please remember that we can give feedback on pricing without being harsh. You cannot say something didn't take effort if you weren't there to see the time put in.
i thought it would be more colorful and have a mario-like color scheme :/
Mario gets send to the pity room by turtles already, the red spiky crystal of doom is fine 
I can't speak for everyone but I wish they could let EVERYONE buy the Ocarina and Link hair for IAP, apart from the Nintendo pack which is Switch exclusive.
Shouldn't have kept such expectations ¯_ಠ_ಠ_/¯
laughs in one wedge
laughs in pain
I just jumped into the pipe to the playground level... and I have to admit being disappointed not to hear the Super Mario pipe sound
instead it's just a death machine
I got stuck under the one that moves up and down and lost wings like never before
And I agree with Cake. A year is a long time to have to wait for something especially if it’s a dream item. I’d have been really sad if I missed Antlers. They were IAP, but the point stands.
And it’s not about moths getting everything they want, the issue is they can’t even hope to really achieve that cape when the whole event costs 245 candles currently. Especially if they also end up wanting to buy from TS. They also are being forced in a way to choose between these items and adding/upgrading friendship which is the whole purpose of this game. To meet people, help each other, socialize, and just enjoy.
So is the rainbow guide not ready? I got an “error” thing when unlocking the first spell
let's change it to a honk cacophony that resembles the pipe noise
they should have made an area for nintendo that was like trials, not a horizontal pov since sky wasnt meant to be played that way. like earth trial but more colorful and fun lmao
Crazy thought: What if it's just expensive in beta since we get a bajillion candles each seasonal conversion and they will drop the prices after we give constructive feedback for live? 
you heard the sound of losing winged light 
how can you get out of the 2D perspective and playfield of the new area?
I’m broke in beta- I can’t buy rainbow cape even

I'm not sonsure about the playground- could benefit from more depth than just a Mario level lookalike with chat. Some more fun jellyfish bouncing parkour, updraft hopping? An Easter egg to unlock like Oreo? Or a shop to buy playground exclusive items , like making the ocarina available to all but only through playground shop?
haha... jumping over the playground's level entrance pipes, I fell just a tiny bit short and then hopped up onto the edge of the pipe... but it was too late. Apparently I barely touched the level trigger and warped away
The link hair is so cute and the ears are my favorite
do chibi fall
the point is the area as it is, because it resembles a super mario level but still have things from sky's universe
i dont think you can :/
Crazy thought: What if it's just expensive in beta since we get a bajillion candles each seasonal conversion and they will drop the prices after we give constructive feedback for live?
@carmine thorn this yeah, i have feeling it will reduced to 100 candle or 70 candle at Live even without our complain
Since in Beta we got a lot of Candles due to the Conversions of Seasonal Candles
Yeah the risk factor is real and then again not everyone is okay with the pricing so it should be better to sell things separately and let every single player have a chance to buy them, it doesn't make sense for me to create wars by making things exclusive at this point, just my opinion :,b
I'm collecting hearts still, for my ||Easter egg|| so i won't be getting the earrings till it hits live 💀 even tho it looks amazing 😫
With chibi falling, you can fall under and go underneath the wall blocking us in.
how are you this creative with ideas
I wish they could scale in game costs to how new your account is, how new you are or how much of your constellations are complete. Like if things were just more affordable for new players. I know people would throw a fit about this, but I just don’t see any other way of making it more fair other than making everything just cheaper for everyone which seems to cause the perception that these things are less valuable. Which is just unfair. 70 candles was quite the achievement for me when I was a moth. If I could use them to buy that cape it would have meant the world to me. Even if you say it feels “cheap and less special”
While the look and Mario aspect of the level is alright, I do wish there atleast a bit of camera movement as its quite difficult to see things when the camera moves automatically- just get stuck everywhere and can’t get a good look at the level itself which is a shame- yes I did leave in Feedback some stuff
Years of creative writing as a hobby. 
you know, I thought of a crazy thing right now
gift cards "made by nintendo" and sold in stores so mobile users could use the codes and unlock the items
While the look and Mario aspect of the level is alright, I do wish there atleast a bit of camera movement as its quite difficult to see things when the camera moves automatically- just get stuck everywhere and can’t get a good look at the level itself which is a shame-
yes I did leave in Feedback some stuff
@vapid fractal it is Bugs actually, it shall be fixed soon i think
I show Rainbow Guide my gay card and he gives me the tassel for free because we are now best friends
Skykid amiibos that you can use with your phone to get the items
It'll turn into an exploit, there'll be work arounds and around works and trees and Ooo cake at the end of the rainbow
I broke out of the side scroller area and got omni-directional camera back
now if they’ll let me do that while in bounds that’d be great 
Another thing i did notice, and put in feedback as well, was it seemed to zoom in/out in the underground area depending on which level you are at. I personally think it should just be at a set distance.
Which is someone’s choice. I’m sure there are ways to adjust prices based on certain “unknown” progress triggers.
how to become beta tester
I really like the concept for the new area, making it like a 2d mario game is cool, but personally I think they'd need to lean harder into the 2d mario game controls, using 3d controls in a 2d level is really jarring
Why cant i see my friends in new update
oh yeah, there will be a candle cake by the end of the rainbows in the event, we're so focused on the items that we forgot those 

you guys know how when you lose stars in the new area, the stars are kinda out of bounds and you cant reach them? i think that means there will be more to the area when we can finally be in 3D mode, beyond what we have now. like the stars are in an area we cant reach atm but will be
I got nostalgic about the rainbows. Its really good to see them, back again 
I don’t really have much input to give as I don’t feel like going on Beta, but am grabbed by what ‘more personable spirits’ could mean
...wait...I’ve been playing for nearly a year, it’s been a year since the rainbows...I feel old now
the silliness of the playground level is just right for me. i think it's funny how janky 2D-platformer-Sky is
What if you wanted to go to the playground, but TGC said "Buy the exclusive Nintendo Pack ! / Let a friend with the proper cape(s) guide you in
"
Nothing against them, cause I'm sure there's gonna be a ton of Nintendo switch users getting that pack 
I think I also need to find that rainbow, for testing purposes
Fortunately enough while I did saw the locations in beta screenshots, I've practically forgot about it 
How was i able to get Nintendo pack if i am beta IOS? 👀
i'd say that's a bug, but It sure would be interesting if it had more space 
turn left and you'll reach a fork in the road, turn right and make a U turn and go on the highway and you'll reach your destination #beta-faq
Just left feedback about the pricing of the new cape 
ah suddenly with the fact the switch capes are exclusive im afraid I won't be able to use the google/android account i have
i hope i still can use my google account in my switch so i can free space on my phone 
With that, i had a thought. It would be really cool if they had changed it to a completely side-scroller, pixel version, like classic mario. Ik they won't, but it is an idea i had.
The pack is available for everyone in Beta for testing purposes
inb4 we make joke game covers for imaginary Sky crossovers
so many ideas brewing for that...so much meme potential
So does this mean we cannot connect our phone data to our switch?
You actually can! Check Ktjn's last message in #beta-faq 
Out of curiosity: how nintendo beta testers report bugs? Do they report it on report the bug feature in the console or there will be a discord channel for nintendo bugs?
thank u
hold on do you guys think we can use our sky pins on switch? they use the same NFC tag as amiibo 


whew ok then i can play on switch and buy the pack there
got real scared for a solid sec

Plus they locked the camera but not the zoom, so you sometimes can't see where you're going if you get stuck in a small space
umm... confirmation messages for burning plants? this has to be a bug, right? 
We are probs getting a part 2 of office ubers: Switch cape ubers 
You really to confirm if you want to burn it

You never know if the plant doesn’t want to be burned 
are you sure you want to burn this plant?

Arson is a crime, you need permission to do it
“do you want to give permission for the normal natural process of combustion to proceed”
Is this a response to the arson sticks running around now?
I wouldn’t be able to tell you until it hits live since my STAR pins stopped functioning on beta
they work fine on live so idk what beta’s issue with star function is
Why do I low-key have a feeling that the link hair hype is gonna be in line as rhythm Ult. Hoot 
Wait.. I burn my friends with the arson stick, does this mean I need their permission now
/j
Why do I low-key have a feeling that the link hair hype is gonna be in line as rhythm Ult. Hoot
@tropic radish they are
is it possible to just chibi in without the pack?
No, they thought of that...
Why cant i see my friends in update 😢🥺😩
haha I've thwarted TGC's evil plans by taking out my candle before approaching the plant!! 
you were the real evil all along 
MUHAHAHA
evil laughter
/But, the switch pack isn't gonna be limited for a few days, right ?
It'll stay on the switch port for as long as It's still running, right ? 
Wait until you need confirmation just to pull out your candle
@twin grail take the same route but turn left and go on the free lane and heada to #known-issues
if it is then the devs will probably do something akin to the office and disable the teleportation point without cape
😂
I did attempt to see. It is not. You can get into the room with the tube, but the warping only works with the capes
I just noticed something
Only Vault, Isle and Red Door that didn't have Social Area
is it my imagination or is it more difficult to press the
on candle clusters and plant clusters now? seems like the icons dance around as much as normal but maybe the press action isn't available when the button is just showing up
Plant: ”oh, you’re approaching me?!”
🪴
yes this is a jojoreference, jojo is 50% of my life
The switch capes are very nice, The switch area is basically an exclusive homespace
Can I purchase the new nintendo pack live? Or is it only beta? And if so does it have to be linked to a Nintendo account? I see it all over social media but don’t really know anything about where to find it. :/
Are you sure you looked everywhere? It has to be somewhere! Remember to try searching for things in Beta yourself, and if you're struggling with something, submit that as feedback to TGC in #beta-feedback to help them improve it! 
when i was trying to light someone up earlier the fire icon was on my left side of the screen and didn’t move. so i assume the fire icon is being buggy atm
/I wonder if the exclusive switch area will get the same treatment as the office
Like, it would be open for everyone during certain events and such, etc. 
The Amiibo sensors on Switch controllers (Joycon and Pro) are too weak to detect the NFC tags on the pins. Even the official Amiibos have issues being read when my phone can read Amiibos all day with the case on, but I need to take the case off and fiddle with the STAR pins for a few seconds before my phone reads them.
nah you didn't get confirmation for the act of arson, that's why
It’s only being tested in beta atm, for Android and iOS. It will be available in the live version only for the Nintendo switch when it launches 
oh okay that makes more sense thanks
if you try to go back to the barriers to make them turn orange it warps you to the social area too... TGC really thought of everything with this one 
someone warp to me I want to see if I can drag you in
Friend constellation go ded
Tested it. You can be dragged in without the cape as long as lead has the cape.
What if the lead doesn't have the cape, but the passenger does? Does the teleporting work for only the passenger, or does it not work at all?
it's really unfair that the blue joycon cape can't get you in the red half of the portal 
It's like entering office without the office cape, the one leading needs the required cape
:0 alrighty then! I’ll wait for it to come live. So excited! Thank youu

a update
Links hair is so pretty,,, never taking it off

how do I activate the time travel feature of the ocarina?
if all bugs were still in beta
enters home crashes
fire trial death loop
can't move in forest and fall through ground
black crows in prairie
can't move in valley
have to get permission to use fire in wasteland
death loop in eden + crash
and that's not all
I didn’t look at the gate thing correctly at first and walked into the wrong side for a solid 5 minutes
yes, I’m stupid I know
It seems the ocarina isn't tuned correctly. Maybe we have to wait till then 
Am i the only one who sees days of rainbow flower as ios photos icon 
dont forget sudden season_intro_1_08
wait the message i was responding to was sent earlier than i thought, this has context dw
Nope some already made memes for it 
Beta is so peaceful and quiet right now btw 
thats cool im not the only one...its so quiet here 
anyone knows why there is so many blessings with the rainbow guide ? 
They are the rainbow trail spells
and those spell are bugged
all I know it’s expensive and Can’t afford it 
Am I the only one who saw the (WIP) button and was immediately grateful that a (NAE) button wasn't added as well?
oh no I bought 2 already and i stopped since nothing was happening 🤭 I hope It won't be an issue or i won't miss something 
what even is NAE?
I bought the first two before stopping also to wait for an update to fix them. 
nothing, just half of a terrible joke
Will beta invites for Nintendo switch be sent tomorrow May 6th?
Don't worry, you will buy it again.
Now watch me whip... now watch me nae nae 😜
Anyone who also got the Rainbow Guide offered Something to you after buying Everything from them?
If it was a NAE button tho I would just:
🚪
not me yet. i'm waiting until the new spells are ready
When I bought Everything from the Rainbow Guide, they offered something to me, I don't know what it is but it just said "It'll unlock a new ability"
Sounds cool and ✨magical✨
Supposed to be one 
Also is there purposefully one tassel or is this a bug causing only one to appear out of two 
That happens with regular spirits sometimes when you buy a lot of stuff at once
When they do the little gifting animation but it’s delayed. probably the same thing
The #news article images show only one. I assume it's working as intended.
Oh wait, I didn't bought the enchantment rainbow thingy yet
I went to Valley temple to look at the constellation and it's there and works fine, just not in Home 
Actually, it's not something like that. When I finished buying most if it from the Rainbow Guide (other than the Rainbow Enchantment thingy), there's shows a "Offer Button" from them, just like when someone unclocking your nodes with friends, I clicked it and pressed check and they gave something to me which is I don't know what is it.
My game wouldn't update at first cuz my testflight was acting weird
but it worked now :)
The bug I’m talking about is similar, it shows a friendship button just like friends instead of playing the gifting animation unprompted, and you get nothing out of it. Maybe someone else in the chat can replicate yours with the Rainbow guide to be sure 
Can I get a beta heads up? Does the 4th season of assembly quest require 4 people?
has this channel finally chilled down yet 
we aren't allowed to say
||but yes||
Thank you! I specifically came to beta for beta content 😉
I mean, if they ask it through the beta channel, it's pretty much allowed to answer, no ? 
This seems like the same thing what Miri says to me. When you buy stuff quickly and don’t wait for the animation to finish, the offer icon shows and says that message. It happens with all spirits when you go too fast with buying stuff. It doesn’t give you anything, it’s just a prompt when animation can’t finish properly 
I don't think so, but it's harmless
Does anyone knows what it means in the beta updates "spirits have learned to be more personable when interacting with players"? I tried tapping them in constellations but they still seem the same
Hmm yeah I don’t understand that part either^
is it just me or i keep crashing when trying to access the traveller's boat

edit: it happened 4 times alr 
I don't think that aspect has been implemented yet. I mean we are also missing 75% of our entire Constellations right now too
Just happened to me lol
Finally Can Update
✨ 
does anybody know how long it takes for a new update to come out once it’s been known what bugs are present in beta? ik it’s only been a day since the known issues, i’m just curious lmao
Ahh okie then. I was excited to see how we can interact with the spirits
I'm so glad we could interact with the assembly guide
does anybody know how long it takes for a new update to come out once it’s been known what bugs are present in beta? ik it’s only been a day since the known issues, i’m just curious lmao
@wicked harness 3 to 1 week maybe ? Or maybe 24 hour idk
The hair looks nice 😐
It depends on how fast they make new content for the game and bug fix. There's no set time for it
Idk if someone's asked about this but can we access a nintendo sky account on mobile? If yes, what if we purchased nintendo pack and accessed that account on mobile, is it gonna show there too? Or only on switch?
That’s a known bug. You might wan to check these; #beta-known-issues message
It all depends on the nature of the bug. Some bugs can be fixed in a few hours and staged for an update in the same day, some bugs are elusive enough to take weeks to fix.
Yeah I've read that but it's focusing on the account, while I was referring to the nintendo pack.
Yeah, if you buy it on the switch and your account is linked it will transfer to iOS/Android
Apologies, I thought you were asking about the account only.
You can link your current sky account to a Nintendo account. So mobile version can access your sky account if it is linked to a Nintendo account. Once the pack is on your Sky account, it should be able to be accessed on any platform. The limit is you need to purchase it on the switch.
aa hey if i buy the bundle from the switch, will i be able to wear it still in any mobile devices as well?
Read above 😄
Good morning guys
sorry i see now xD weird timing for me to send that haha my bad- but good to know!! tyyy
Good night 🌙 guys ☺️
Has the update finally rolled out?
Edit: The update is finally available. Thanks everyone
Nah, all good 😊
I think they turn to face you when you go to their statues in the realms now
Thank you! 
have the switch beta invites been sent already?
i wonder how they will interact to each other 
like with emotes, or something else

@wary star please take care to keep your messages respectful and considerate
i removed your message
what
Wait, I finally got the update
i wasted 2 minutes cooldown
Doing the sanctuary quests in beta is making me nostalgic
I miss sanc
oml update has come true, the wait was worth it all 
Wait so the Nintendo pack is only for switch or is that up for discussion?
It is only purchasable on the Switch.
Its a switch exclusive, probably due to intellectual properties being owned by nintendo 
Is it confirmed that linking your Nintendo acc allows you to wear the cosmetics you purchased on the switch on mobile?
Will they change the design from the nintendo switch capes from beta or will they stay the same?
when does the switch testers get chosen
Don't know, best we can do is send feedback i guess
Sorry if this is answered already, but will the Nintendo Pack be available permanently in the IAP shop on the Switch, or just for the release? like how the ||Office cape|| is permanent in live until you buy it 
everything is subject to change in beta if you like/dislike something you can leave feedback in the #beta-feedback channel even if you are not a tester 
morning/afternoon/evening everyone C:
thank uu
There seems to be a countdown in the purchase popup, tho i am not sure if it was intended that way. I personally think it should be permanent
So if there is an issue already posted in #beta-known-issues , do we have to post it in #beta-bugs-android ?
Ew the rainbow cape is so expensive
I am a broke beta moff, even with the Nintendo and rainbow flower candles :stickerGloomy:
Have u got office cape yet? Wanna go there?
So uh,... um, we,.. can lose wl in the new area,.. I see

I wanna jump on the creb 
guys, will the rainbow cosmetics really cost that much?
Just be careful 
It’s so hard to navigate there I was stuck in the lower levels

You can send your feedback on #beta-feedback
If everyone agrees to lower the cape prices then theres a chance the cape prices will change
We don’t know if these prices will be final, so I’d say don’t worry about it too much for now. 
Everything in beta is subject to change.
I really like how they put WIP in the ocarina icon instead of other instruments like the bugle 😆
i dont mind if they do or dont lower it, but if they do i will scream for the sake of my candles
i asked to lower to 60
I just realized the cape is more expensive than the last feast table (it cost 150 candles)
Hope they lower the cape prices
If the cape stays the current price, then it’ll take 10-11 days of full candle runs to get enough candles for it
Detail that the cape is the same cape as the ones in the game but being colorful
9 days if you full full candle run
every realm and trials and a bit of geyser
20*9=180
But you also need to buy the spells
oh true
GAMING cape :SkyLOL:
RGB cape increases your game's fps by 90fps 😎
the company has not conducted a survey for a long time. not a single one. opinion, age, and ability to pay have lost their meaning? now only money, hardcore and player's soul?
I got a survey the day before Days of Nature ended. It's just random when you get it.
I got a survey in live when 0.13.2 update hit. That's the nature of surveys. They're random.
i feel like if they keep the cape at a 100+ candle count maybe they plan to make days of rainbow last the whole month of June? similar to days of fortune being pretty much the whole month of feb
well yes it is pride month 
I believe you, guys. I had them more before
i mean that doesnt mean sky will do the whole month for the cosmetics i mean days of bloom didnt last all spring. and looking at the current timer for the beta flower that only seems to be for 2 weeks (could be a placeholder obviously)
if u want to share ur perspective there's feedback channel tho...? Don't need to wait for survey
We have a little community in ~20 active players. Thats just our feelings. I just collect our thoughts.
You know, I quite like the Nintendo area. Not terribly essential to players to be in there at all, but it's.. terribly cute. It doesn't break the aesthetic, and to see the game of Sky in 2D is a fun perspective and activity. So all in all, I think it's a good balance as a cute extra area, nothing more
If it helps, I got mine after rebirth. I didn't do Eden for months. 
I wish everyone luck to get beta invite today if not its okey
Me too. But it was almost a year ago. But it was the best thing that i did
hey guys, I deleted the beta app earlier and reinstalled, but when I go to link my account, it says "Error: already linked to another Sky account"... it's the same account I have my live Sky linked with, but that hasn't been an issue in the past. anyone know a fix?
OMG FINALLY AN UPDATE FOR ANDROID
Me after installing update: 
Now playing: Hua-Sui-Yue
Check boat and finish game session
I've been waiting for this 
I went to go unlock the middle row of spells from rainbow spirit. After I tap out, the button to offer me a spell kept spamming and I am now officially scared of them 
I believe you need to sign out from the account menu and then log in with your account from the start menu
Well don’t they usually have 1 week after beta testing and the event coming to live? Events in beta are usually far shorter than they are in live
So what do you guys think of the switch exclusive area?
<- indeed
worked like a charm, thank you so much!
it wasnt the case for bloom or nature they both lasted as long as they did in live iirc sorry wrong person
curse this slowmode
I believe you pinged the wrong person, toast

If ill regist on Nintendo switch, would i get cosmetics if it?
The nintendo pack can be bought in Switch console (Live version)
@round anvil you have to link your nintendo account to your main account beforehand then use the nintendo account to log in to your switch then you can buy it from there
Im playing on beta and im writing from android. I got it on beta. So its playable for android as also?
In beta yes
The Nintendo pack is in mobile beta right now to test the items and make sure they work, but when they go to live they will only be able to be purchased by Switch players
However, if you purchase it on the Switch, you will be able to wear it when you play on mobile like any other items
Where is it?
Are you sure you looked everywhere? It has to be somewhere! Remember to try searching for things in Beta yourself, and if you're struggling with something, submit that as feedback to TGC in #beta-feedback to help them improve it! 
I d i d
Thank you. There are a little things-rules that i cant smtimes find in official updates. I got it. Thank you
do a peekabo behind the krill closet
It's actually written in #beta-announcements in bold
There was a lot of info in the update, so it can still be missed or forgot you read it when looking at everything at once
also now that the friend constellation just doesn't exist... how are we supposed to get hearts? 
i feel bad for switch players the earth cape is perfect for a link cosplay and they will have to wait a year for it to (possibly) return
Well, that's only for people who will be brand new players during the Switch release. If people are currently mobile players but also have a Switch, they will be able to play on both if they link their account and could use the earth cape that way if they had purchased it
I know it's a bug lol but now idk how to get enough hearts for the earring thing 
Android waits for year(s) for a special staff
There's blue cape 😬 Didn't Link wear blue in botw posters?
are switch and global players on the same server or differnt ones 
Champion outfit from botw is what he wore
classic link is green but i guess theres always next season 
In live yes, Switch players should be able to play with mobile players together. Only the beta versions are separate right now
yayy i really want the ocarina i can do this! Does it cost anything?
theres still the wasteland cape 🤷
The new area
I forgot there was a new area added 👀
Which realm is it in? (Imma find it myself just needa narrow the search a little :p
It comes in a package that includes hair, 2 capes, the instrument itself and a handful of candles; same price as the office cape. Up to you if the price is worth it or not but keep in mind: things can change in beta 
watseland i tbubk in social space
thank you
cant wait for the servers to be swarmed with new moths
had a stroke reading that 
wow! I really dont mean to be hurtful, but isnt it a bit expensive?
Finally finished the meme video I was talking about yesterday in #beta-screenshots-videos, but now it's kinda irrelevant

Edit: I just did send it lol
ooooh nice imma go hunt it down
Thank you!

Send it anyways
Wait you already did sorry
two capes, a hair, an instrument and 75 candles
that's low priced for tgc
You're welcome to leave feedback about the prices, but for everything that you get I feel like it's a decent price when considering how much other IAPs have cost
It still made me laugh

You know, I think a lot of the discontent with this update was quelled sooner than usual because we had a staff member directly taking our input and feedback, which was phenomenal
nintendo is most likely the one that set the price since all of the items are licensed. plus the earnings are split between nintendo and tgc.
It's a good price for all the stuffs we get but I want the items to be sold separately cuz i just want the hair tbh
already feedback tho
do you guys think that the rainbow cape will remain so expensive?? just wondering ehehe
It's up to TGC, but a lot of people have left feedback about it so we'll see what happens I guess
it would honestly be nice if it was split one cape with hair and one cape with ocarina but then the secret area would be less exclusive (idk help i can't remember a word that fits here)
No no i mean they sell the items separately. I get that it's exclusive. Just don't want to have 2 capes with same function (i mean if it's possible i just want the hair
)
need rainbow cape and tassle
need
Yes,, got the updated..but can't test it right now 
So I take it the cape is extremely expensive on switch...
The Nintendo pack is $30 USD but you get all of the items that come in it plus some candles
Not to mention that you can use those candles to buy the rainbow cape as well, so it's kind of a win-win situation
You know, for 4 items, a secret area, and a good number of candles, the pricing could be worse all things considered
wish they could split up the packs sometimes, i'm really only in for the hair, i don't really want the other cosmetics
As a nintendo fan I absolutely love all 4 cosmetics 
Yea but I’d rather buy a completely different triple A game for that amount... if it was 10 maybe but $30 is just way too high... did the switch beta testers get it for free?
Totally not me waiting to see if tgc would lower down the rainbow cape price
Zelda pack and THEN switch controller pack
I’m sorry if this is an overasked question.. but has switch beta already been released to some players? I know it’s “officially” written to be released to some tomorrow..
Beta realm and live realm are separated
Switch beta wasn't released yet
i want the capes, that's it (and the candles lol)
what triple a game is 30 bucks?
on nintendo most IP titles are at least 59.99
Okay thank you! 
I am because then I can actually afford it 
Switch version beta is supposed to be released at least 7 hours later I guess? Cuz the website said it's 6th May (?) I'm not sure but I'll check my emails.
Oh that’s true, it starts in a couple days. They already had the raffle though on April 22 they’re just not releasing it until the 6th.
Oh and @autumn elk , if you spend your money right. Some older triple a games are only 30 or 40, like crash bandicoot or assasins creed (which you should not play or look up unless you’re 18)
6 hours and 20 minutes, then you can check your emails to your hearts content
The Zelda hair and ocarina was such a nice touch, there’s a lot of us Zelda fans who play sky 😂
I saw a vid and the Ocarina doesnt really sound like a ocarina
Me with Assassin's Creed 3 on my switch 👁️👄👁️
The ocarina says “WIP” on beta so it’s “work in progress” I think. I’m sure they will fix the sound. Kinda sounds like the horn instrument right now lol.
They don’t have the sound ready for it yet, that’s why. It’s still in beta. Oh and @static saffron ac 3 is the best
Let's try to keep mentions of other games to a minimum, since this is still a Sky server first and foremost and remember the family friendly rules 
Anyways, I'm loving the new update so far 
Can't wait to see (well hear) what the ocarina sounds like!
Guys rainbow spirit is now named "Dave" and you can't change my mind 
The perfect name
Man, I really want to like the link hair, and I do, but for some reason I got it into my head that skykids look best to me with big hair 😅 maybe it's the extra height, or maybe because it rounds out the baggy pants on some outfits
For me it's the ear color, if they were more brown like the sky kid skin color I think it would look better. But the gray ears stick out too much for me lol (I already left feedback earlier)
I agree on the ear color!
Not me who's gonna make an oc with the link hair 
Eventually- Another skykid to the pile of idiots that are my sky ocs
keyword is older sky will be brand new for switch (so will the pack) and its possible they may discount items at a later date too like other games do.
I really like how the elf hair looks with the Assembly ultimate cape though, really nice adventurer vibes right there 
Now we just need good pants to go with it
Cargo pants says hi 
Yeah, the cargo pants look pretty nice with it. Also the puffy pants from Belonging, as well as most of the cream color pants from the base spirits honestly
big agree but i believe the cargo pants are the best and only pants 
Wait. What if the champion's outfit was in sky? 
Or something similar 
Well if you want a good Link outfit, let's hope that the upcoming Le petite prince season will let us own his green outfit. Classic link style
Yeah, green pants hopefully! 
Honestly If they add that, I need a good pair of green pants. It would go so well with assembly's green and yellow cape and pendant. And the rose mask from days of love too!
When will the new season be available for testing in Beta?
Probably next month
All we know is Ktjn earlier said it's not ready for testing yet. It will be sometime before July since that's when the season is scheduled to hit live, but other than that there has been no announcement
It's very deep
Now I wonder what triggers Skybot to use the image 
Skybot is sentient wdym
Maybe one day I can be a real Skykid! 
I use a different email for my switch and phone, will this matter when linking my Nintendo account?
skybot is like the pinocchio of sky
You can link your Nintendo account directly on your phone that you use on your switch and it should be fine
Even with my switch and phone having different emails?
Do people already know if they were picked for switch beta?
I think theyre gonna let us know tomorrow on may 6th
Yes it doesn’t matter the Nintendo link is a completely separate link (i used two diff emails too)
Omg awesome! Thank you so much💕💕💕
Android & iOS can buy Nintendo pack? I mean in beta
Edit: thanks
just a speculation but i think Sky is going to be announced at nintendo’s E3 presentation since it’s coincidentally in the same month 
At Nintendo's E3?
Nah.
They might get Sky in a Ninty presentation, but they aren't gonna use E3 stage to present that they've launched Sky. E3 is gonna be promotion for Nintendo's intellectual properties.
Which gate that have playground?
Edit: thanks
Slowmode check 👁️
Edit:-Okie
Since we can buy Nintendo pack and enter the secret area, can we also report bugs about it even tho we're in mobile?
Okee thanks🙏
Basically, playground is a Home 2.0 Switch version plus there is a Super Mario pipe vibe with that dark plant/rock can take skykid flight power with kreb running around...so are we going to get Bowser next 
Regarding the 175+ candle cost of new days of rainbow / pride cape..
(warning my opinion, wasnt sure were to post.)
The price on pride, Shameful!
Between saving for TS’s and gifting close friends hearts.
How is this a healthy cost for a community reliant game???
Please correct me if i am wrong.
This many micro-transactions is very harmful to the longevity of a game.
#beta-feedback is a good channel to give your feedback on features being tested in beta. Messages in that channel are read by Thatgamecompany staff. Messages here can get lost in other conversations, so it's not guaranteed your voice gets heard by them. 
does anyone have a problem with the update?
I don't get the update on TestFlight:(( help
what update?
“If you’re gay, you can have the earring
If you’re not, || you can also have it cuz everyone deserves it||”
the one that came out with the rainbow event
Left ear is straight, right ear is gay. Very important distinction 👌
still cant open my constellation and half of the realms 🥲
Thank you very much!! Sorry i didnt know where to post

.
This is kinda a very outdated weird concept that I don’t think we should hold to anyone anymore 
I'm fine with how the earring is. This is for the pride.
Idk, i might still wear it because idc about other unknown people on the internet assuming my sexuality but yeah, some might feel uncomfortable, and well, does this thing even hold importance today? It's very old
that's what they say but I don't get the update
So Both means bi? 👀
Cherish your non-update while it lasts this one is really buggy
I think it’s pretty much meaningless nowadays, I’d just wear an earring on the side I think would look nicest
nothing to do with anyone’s sexuality
I’m ace 👀
I realize that, but it’s pretty useful tbh. I have my earring on my left and some of my friends have it on the right, then they won’t feel awkward if they’re going to do anything if you know what I mean. Also I don’t want people to think I’m gay just because I have one earring 😅 (otherwise I don’t really care tbh)
Also, I'm pretty sure whirthun saw us all complaining about the price and recognised it as a wide feedback given by all, so i have high hopes that it'll be brought down 
175 does feel unreasonable imo
Do y’all think the day of rainbow cape is kinda expensive? 175 candles is more than a ts price tho
I know, but can I get to the nintendo stuff?:((
That is not how it works. Gay people can have no earrings, straight people can have earrings. And the other way around. Anyone can wear what they want and it has nothing to do with sexuality. I’m non binary and ace and I don’t wear earrings
Why is the cool down so long?
Neither of my ears are even pierced 
it'd be cool to have both a left earring and a right earring on the tree each for 10 hearts
guys we don’t need to discuss the gay thing around here
I’m not saying that... nvm it’s mainly a joke nowadays. Let’s move on. One earring looks cool though, I still hold that
it's perfectly ok to discuss the Pride event and cosmetics here
it's... a pride month event though
I like the switch playground, buts it’s kinda boring. Tgc should add a bit more stuff to do there
I wonder if we can have nentendo test version
Yep, i think so too, #beta-feedback
no unless you applied during the application window
Sorry I’m asking again but why is the cool down so long? It used to be like 30 seconds
If it's too good people will cry even more
When mods can speak in less than two minutes but you can't 
Is anyone else saving their candles for when the trails get fixed? I’m also hopeful they’ll lower the price of the cape
Most traveling spirits don’t even cost that much in total, no one will be able to afford it in live
Is it already open?or pass but still thanks for answering
I totally agree. I don’t even have time to save for both ts and the cape:(
Nope i couldn't resist buying the cape
I'm ok with that price..my skykid have a stacks of candles..
mods always have immunity to cooldown. we generally don't flex it, but it's sort of necessary in order to do moderator stuff
i- didnt realize the ocarina was from animal crossing cuz i was playing that game earlier and i noticed it xD very rad item tho 👌
F for those that have work or something and can’t candle run every day
the ocarina is from legend of zelda, it even comes with botw hair
My ocarina sounds like a horn for some reason ahmwshbwbysg
It's from the legend of zelda 
the ocarina... o f t i m e
it is but still two minutes is a long time to try to be talking about beta
we're having like a 2 minute conversation stretched out over 20 minutes
And Sorry guys I tho this chat is only for test discussion 🥺
But mine doens't😳

I have like 24 candles in live and 2 candles in beta
yes, all of these things we're talking about are in the beta. the switch cosmetics, the Pride cosmetics...
@static saffron oh worrd my b lOL thanks for letting me know. i swear i lack my knowledge in games xDd
switch cape look cool
You all should play breath of the wild... it’s a good game... (I’m counting this as related because of the cosmetic)
Wouldn't it be nice if the capes were available as a "Nintendo Special Pack" and the ocarina and hair were available as a "Legend of Zelda Pack"
And they could keep the capes pack switch exclusive and make the zelda pack available to all. Just because so many wanted an ocarina for so long , but it's switch only:SkyFaint:
Edited message because offtopic
Seeing the ocarina in sky is nice, a new instrument and something from one of my favorite series
I d kind of like it switch only(tho
I played none, because I don’t even have a switch
Let's please keep the topic to the Sky beta. 
maybe saria's ocarina can be for in-game currency at the time of the Switch release
No way would Nintendo allow Zelda stuff outside of Nintendo products. They’re WAY too clingy with Zelda, it has a very serious fan base.
So even if ThatGameCompany wanted to do that(which they probably would) they would never be able to get the licensing
Yeah well I'm kinda sad i won't be able to get the instrument just because i wanted an ocarina for so long
But i guess it is what it is :')
The Zelda hair looks like
hair without ears

Is the game release on switch going to be free or need to be purchased?
I wonder how it's gonna sound though 
Free
I’m not really excited for the switch event tho… maybe bc I dont own a switch, and the switch user got cool cape and the Zelda stuffs
Do you guys know if the pricing for the rainbow cape will change? It seems...a little...much...it's a lot. 175 candles seems like too much
When #beta-feedback turns into #beta-wishlist-and-ideas
That's how a unite community get separate apart.
Or so to say I ve been waiting sky on switch for a long timeeee
For those who have Switch, it's good for them. Can play it on Switch, your smartphone/tablet can rest for a while.
I'm gonna play sky on both my switch and phone, wanna see the difference between the two when live release is out
it can be used on switch right now??
I'm not sure if this was okay to ask here, but does anyone else who already get the announcement from Switch beta lottery?
Testing begins tomorrow iirc
you got it already? 
Ah, okay. Cuz my timezone is already May 6th morning
I haven't got any mail so curious about that~
Thanks for answering
Wow ;-;
for TGC it's still 7:30 on may 5
@spark lance #beta-feedback also just note that the pricing is temporary and almost surely not going to be the same in Live
Wow...I can feel this guy's anger but it would be nice to send this in feedback, kid.
#beta-feedbackhere you go
Okayyyyy thxxx guys😭😭
I feel like I'm being yelled at ;;
Same tbh 
Woah that's alot
But I dont think the prices are even official yet
why does onky switch people get elf hair?
or will we be able to get it too once switch players will be able to come to live?
Dude it's the first day
and did you not see see the pricess for Assembly change multiple times?
Not to mention they already fixed the table bug in beta
And fact that you don't have to get every item in game, you can't use all of them at once either. Yeah it's good to have them, but most people will just stick with a few of all cosmetics
Changes won't happen the millisecond you send feedback, give it time 
Also what happened on Christmas is months old???
What is even happening
What was the ts when the Christmas dude came?
Ah I remember now
Is there any qualification for the sky beta server recently? Last time I changed the iPad test qualification was deleted sad,what can I do now!
They are working on the chat prop bug and its believed to have a fix as mentioned in #beta-announcements
🔹 Fixed bug causing players to fall from chat props when a new person enters an instance
Beta is just a place to test everything before they put them into live version, so, let's support TGC first. Send feedback or catch some bugs. this is why we are here, right?
Bug fix need time Calm down man
The assembly questgiver does trade items for normal candles and hearts this time around but those items will always be present in the game, you are under no obligation to buy them soon 
How much do you think the little price season is?
you have a point here, they claim that its an lgbtq event, but people who represent them might not even get a chance to get something from it 
im curious about this too because i never see other prices change except for seasonal items and the Christmas hat
When will the error be fixed
We are not talking about getting everything in game. We are talking about the change to get everything in game. Seriously this is driving me away from any nintendo console. LONG LIVE THE PC GAMES 
But this price is way more outrageous than anything we've really seen, so it's much more likely to be changed
I can't see my best friend
But even when its changed, what will the price be? perhaps, 50,70 candles, or maybe 100?
It would be better it's a little prince season came with a Nintendo pack that is $30.
keeping it at 70 would be nice :[
Best to be 70 to 90 candles imo
Alright see ya 
yes yes we have about a month, if not longer or shorter (for this event) to make suggestions and give feedback to make sure the events are at its best for everyone. testing jus started today & we have plenty of time to share our thoughts
even in the Halloween event when so many people complained about why tgc raised the prices of the 2019 halloween items, they didn't change anything. ill be surprised if tgc change the price of the rainbow cape
it's alright to be angry and your feedback is very valid, but posting in all caps in a public chat where your message can be buried easily won't help the devs know what's wrong. As others have said, #beta-feedback is the best place to let the devs know about what you dislike and why. You talked about things that are already in the live game too so for that i recommend #live-feedback
Hi I was wondering why I dont have an update for the new beta?
curious to ask when can know the result for lottery of access switch beta?
There was a problem for android but i believe it's fixed few hours ago. Have u tried cleaning playstore cache and check again?
May 6th, US Pacific Standard Time
@safe fiber the lottery start May 6, not today 👀
Oh it worked thank you very much ☺️
Its may 6 here 
may i know the time announcement ? because is 6th for me in Singapore 🤣
For me is May 6th too but not on US Pacific Standard Time (just be pacient)
Today: It is still May 5th by TGC time for you magical people who live in the future
It's in about 3 hours. lmao it is in about 4 more hours. I thought it was later than it really was
its like 4 more hours
oh..thanks for telling guys
They probably won't be sending out emails in midnight tho yall
oh no... i hope i can get it 
itll be like 12 or more hours when they start doing that(8:00a.m)
Ya give like, 12 hours extra 
They said it in #beta-announcements. ⬇️ Maybe it was. I guess I misunderstood lmao
I believe that was for mobile beta
I was referring to the: "event begin testing at may 5th pdt" :SkyPray:
I hope I'll be in the beta! 
Are people still getting errors with the blessings for rainbow cape? I don’t want to waste my candles lol
ETA: Thanks to everyone who replied !
Yeah, with what time it is currently in PDT, I wouldn't expect any email for at least 13hrs. That would be 9AM, May 6th for TGC and that's if they do it immediately when their shift starts. Please give them time and understand they are -8:00 from GMT, so if you're GMT or +, it might be May 7th by the time you get the email. 
I'm getting nervous for some reason lol
Alright, I'm in GMT+8 so lol
Still have long time to wait for email
Hello from 16 hours in the past. 
Hello I'm future skykid
I hope my friend got the switch beta invitation... She is so excited when sky get announced on switch
do you guys know how to purchase via switch? I never reallly bought anything from games in switch
didnt realise I reply u lol
We just have to be patient for the lottery 
Prob vía eShop
Yeah I was about to say that, and in-game
im wondering if it’s a redeem code or something else 
Nintendo "open" beta program would be an unique product code... At least that's how other Switch open betas have worked in the past. (Edit: "unique product code")
@carmine thorn, read about requirements to join the Switch Beta here: http://bit.ly/SkySwitchBeta
Not me yelling at myself bc I never charged my Nintendo for some reason
Charge it 
Isn't the switch Beta for Sky a closed Beta program?
That's why there's air quotes.
Other publishers call it open, even though it requires an unique code.
Most bugs that was listed "fixed" in #beta-announcements werent actually fixed, that's a lot of bug reports im too lazy 
i see i see that makes sense. im not really used to the eShop so thats some useful info lol
what about the user can we have multiple account on 1 consule? cause in 1 consule there can be multiple user and for purchasing nintendo pack cause I only have 1 switch to playtogether with the fam and my sister also play sky and want nintendo pack
The switch beta application was open for anyone that was interested in it, and people will be chosen at random. A closed beta example would be if they invited a group of testers by invitation only
I think we will get trolled by Juggler TS during days of rainbow 
That would be pain and happy at the same time lmao
Sharing a device isn't against the TOS, (Multiple accounts on one device for multiple users) sharing an account with someone else or having multiple accounts for one person is against the TOS. Hopefully that came out right.
owhhh okey that mean we can play on 1 consule as long as its not on 1 user acc?
Just remember with eShop items, like free to start games, each user on that device needs to "download" it (not really downloading, just grabbing the license) so they can play on that user. Each time the game starts up, usually the game will do a license check to ensure you're allowed to play that game.
Is anyone else having server issues?
They did that with “dont go” right as days of feast was about to start iirc
I still believe in randomness but yea that one was pretty deadly
Daily question: anyone received Nintendo switch beta test version invite mail?
I don't have a Switch 
Right now its not May 6 at TGC time, you might need to wait a couple more hours.
Thank you🥺I am just want to make sure if I didn’t miss any mail on this
Is the white peony flower will be purchasable again?
i wake up and see finally android have an updoot, noice
Yep, and that's why I finally got the new Beta IAPs ingame
Hey just wondering, will we need the nintendo online subscription in order to play sky on there?
I think not
You can read the announcement for the Switch in #news
Sky will be free-to-start
#news message
You can also ask more questions about the Live version in #questions-and-help, since beta testers test a completely different version (and the Switch beta isn't even here yet
)
Where is the Nintendo level? I am lost
Reminder that as testers, we should try looking for things in Beta ourselves when possible! If you are still struggling to find something, please remember to submit it in #beta-feedback as that feedback is very valuable for TGC and can help many players in Live 
Head to the Wasteland social space and see what you can find
Is anyone’s Friend Constellation broken- because its not working for me h
I just found a new bug in the Boat in home space
It’s in the “bata known issues”
Yah going near it makes my game crash too
I thought you said fried constellation
I think im hungry
I didn't crash until I tried to open the shop that has the event spells
I'm seeing people in some sort of oob where it seems like some look like nintendo Level, is that at home space in the clouds??
Lmao
The Rainbow Wedge is WiFI signal Wedge
I can't unsee this
will switch capes look like what they do right now in beta when they come to live? 
Maybe skybot ate the fried constellation
Maybe
This is beta after all, it means things can change one day
and will the elf hair be avalible for sale for us when switch sky comes out? 
and will the elf hair be avalible for sale for us?
@valid whale Forever Now, but you can always speak up in #beta-feedback
Sorry how can I use the error with blessing blessing 
It's a known issue, they're fixing it
Man. Sleepy wanderer boat does not like me. It crashed like twice when I went to check on goodies.
The little jellyfish in Forest can now recharge players
this is really cute
The little jellyfish that could 
Yeah I used the pop-up option (“What were you doing before Sky crashed?”) to notify devs qwq
Do other players can follow to NS secret place? Which only allow players with NS cape…
I tested it someone can drag you in if they have the cape
if you have the - cape on open the left, if you have the + cape on open the right
The problem is the barrier to the entrance. It's nothing like I've ever seen before
i think it's actually two gates placed side by side
when the season collab with le petit prince releases In beta... Im gonna buy the whole season and leave my live account behind
And then beta progress wipe happens and you'll wish you hadn't
You can use piggyback or warp to hold hands with a person
Beta isnt meant to be a replacement for live
That sweet sweet moment of accomplishment for someone that can't afford a pass tho
i'm still mildly disappointed that the gate to the switch-only area didn't involve a two player gate that splits open like the switch joycon logo...would be quite a bit more troublesome to activate, but the imagery 

Wait we have switch only area now?
Unlike Live where your cosmetics are permanent, the stuff you get in beta may reset so Live is much better
Plus, Beta is a place for testing only
Switch only when it reaches live (it'll behave a lot like office minus the extra daily wax). for now all of beta has access to it.
sorta, it requires a cape that will only be able to be bought on the Switch
just visited the switch area, first question in mind: "where are the waxes?"
So Question for everyone: how many winged light have you lost in the nintendo level 😆 
With wax people cry even more
it might actually be okay even if there was candle wax in the area now because of the daily light system -- once you get to 19-20 candles, you really aren't going anywhere fast even with an extra cake or two in an area 
that still won't stop people from complaining though
That would be adding fuel to the fire imo
It's fine to go to beta to test things
It's fine to go to beta just to play and enjoy
It's fine to go to beta just for the cosmetics
Just be nice to everyone :cEllieSkyLove:
yes, for me new wax areas are new area to start or end a 15 candle run
but yeah, for others, more things to whine on
people actually think everything in beta= everything in live
Human nature- Whine on literally anything, whether exist or not 
it isn't? 
No matter if it's beneficial or not, there will aways be complaints 
That doesn't mean improvement should be stopped tho
to prove people will argue complain over anything... here, a new area
so where is this new secret place?
Are you sure you looked everywhere? It has to be somewhere! Remember to try searching for things in Beta yourself, and if you're struggling with something, submit that as feedback to TGC in #beta-feedback to help them improve it! 
Hi does anyone get email to test beta ver on switch alrdy?
They'll start sending them at may 7 in their time. Wait for a day 

The button asked us to burn the darkness or not keeps appearing, is that a new feature or bug? So annoying
hey beta guys, will the nintendo pack be infinitely buyable on live? like on switch
i hope it is, i'm gonna cry that it's not gonna be on the mobile versions rip
it will be on mobile version because Nintendo players also play with mobile players. But you need to purchase by a Nintendo switch. Not available to purchase on mobile
it’s on or before May 6th
Ok, i tried oobing into the new area without the cape and its very easy 👁️👄👁️ it works the same as office it'll reset you after a while if you enter without the cape.
oooh i see, they changed it
Have they sent emails to the switch beta testers?
does anyone know when the new season is supposed to start?
Hey i just got one question. Are we able to use same account that played in ios within the Nintendo switch? Sry for my poor English and to bother u all.
in beta? we have no clue in live around june time
after the current ends, so be patient 
we'll likely have one or two weeks off season
somewhere in July for live, not sure in beta.
in beta!! thanks 🤍
seeing as beta invites for switch will be going out this week it’s possible that the next season could arrive next week or the week after in beta but it’s all up in the air at this point 
New season probably this month or next month i think
May I ask why did it get delayed?
Anyone know where is the rainbow in the quest today
Hmm I don't know where that could be, but we could jump in Beta and try searching it together! As testers, it's important for us to look for things ourselves before asking questions and submit any struggles to TGC in #beta-feedback. That way we are helping many Live children that could have the same questions 
forest clearing
If they said Thursday, that’s May 6th I don’t think the date has changed
Remember to check the "spam" section just in case
Wow moving in the new area is such a pain i always fall into a portal
lost my last two brain cells convincing my brain that i can't move camera 
Honestly, I'm more than OK with never being able to visit that area (unless being ubered ofc)
I tried oobing there too it's so restricted 👁️👄👁️ they should just entirely change the controls in there if they want us to play mario
Maybe it will be better with switch controls
Maybe that's exactly why only switch can access it
Oh, that makes sense
Where can I access the secret area?
i hope they improve music playing on switch.. and controller
its an absolute nightmare to play music on controller its unreal i hate it so much not to be disrespectful but it just is REALLY BAD
now we have to ask which secret area it's referring to
I'm probably asking a dumb question but is the nintendo switch touch screen?
Oh, that case playing music would feel the same as a mobile right?
yep
Can be, yeah
I feel like when we interact with spirits we’re gonna use touch screen so maybe?
hmm... did android screenshots get even more pixelated this build? its been getting pretty bad now 
It's worse on my phone. Already sent feedback about it since I don't know if it's a bug or intended.
I noticed it too, its my screenshots looks worse now when i do a comparison with my enchantment screenshots
Idk if its my device getting old or the builds are causing it
i’m pretty sure they wouldn’t do that intentionally
they probably changed the default resolution by accident
but the controller version needs a desperate improvement its unreal how bad it is🥲
i cant press a note without opening music sheet menu or closing out of the whole entire thing
from what the folks in #android-questions discovered, it only appears in snapdragon phones right? it started during sanctuary iirc
I wouldn't think that so much if the fix for sanctuary crash was to completely disable anti-aliasing on snapdragon chipsets, which seems to be the cause of AA disappearing when they were fixing that crash.
Yes, it has been awhile :
I feel pain when i see my screenshots and videos comparing to ios 
Some Snapdragon phone suffer Screenshot and Anti Aliasing issue's since sanctuary.
They got worse this build, though. like really worse. The stairstep effect of aliasing lines is so bad this build, I think I could actually use them as steps.
hmm... i've also noticed some pretty intense lag spikes on 60 fps when there wasn't any in the last build. i'll have to turn on gpu watch again the next time i can hop on for a long period of time.
Can you post it to #beta-screenshots-videos . I didn't see any difference
#beta-screenshots-videos message check out the trees and flight trails
@hushed robin it's like office, you need the switch cape
the hard conclusion to save up for an iphone or a high end android phone

Also tgc should fix some of the flower clipping issues in some hair
well, my phone is techincally mid-high end. i have an s10+. its the processor that's causing the issue.
should i bug report the fact that i have updated beta 5 times already and still cant play because it keeps begging me to update?
yikes, never realized they did that. hopefully they find a different way to solve the problem without disabling anti aliasing 
It wrost than the live bulid. I never seen the rain having that janky lines
Reminder to leave #beta-feedback 
I have a switch. Once It releases, I won't use my phone for live anymore and if TGC is gracious enough to let me beta test on switch, I would ditch Android beta also.
I have the poco f2 pro, also mid-high end (i guess) the screenshots are slightly pixelated and graphics a little jagged even though its it can support 60 fps and 30 fps high def
those are some awful rain
i'll have to check forest for myself if it looks like that on my devices too
honestly with how bad screenshots have gotten on snapdragon phones, this would most definitely warrant a bug report. i would rather take a screenshot from my phone with all of the ui than use the in game one at this point
speaking of. i should start specifying that i have a snapdragon phone in my bug reports since the s10+ has 2 versions.
There's also one bug which I found in the Forgotten ark
Dont think i will ever really want to get the switch specifically for sky, I'm not too interested in any other switch exclusive games , its just out of my typical budget
same
recently got the poco x3 pro and the screenshot quality is even worse there than on the tablet i also use for playing 
guyys should i bug report that i have to continually update the app despite being updated several times previous
like no matter how many times i update it will beg for me to do it again
Its a sad time to be android, no hd photos nor recordings 
Try uninstalling and reinstalling the beta app
You can record your screen resolution if you are on Android 11 with the built in recorder.
Gameplay isn't that pixelated... It's sad my device screenshots look better than the in game function.
the only good thing is i can finally record with in-game audio
but in terms of screenshots we still aren't getting that good quality back in enchantment days
Can we talk about how the switch capes look like something the tier 2 capes should have looked like? 
That but now with a black stripe on the middle of the stars
I wonder why they seperate into two capes instead of just one with split colors , plus the cape isnt really giftable to anyone so looks a bit weird having two seperate capes, just my opinions
If i were to look at the capes seperately I wouldn't immediately identify it as a nintendo cape
I've just submitted my first Beta report on a new bug that appeared after the update, and it looks like it doesn't just happen in the sleepy traveller's boat
A combination of red and blue would've been best xD
I never liked the red/blue joycons. All 3 of my joycon sets are grey...
I think it was about the joy con colour
find your other half / person with matching outfit Sky Switch version 
Do you mean Gay Joycon?
I dont even have a switch , sike- 
Maybe im making an invalid opinion , i never touch a console before , the last time i touch a controller as on a NES back in like 10 years ago
Anyone knows how we can oob. In the switch area to free the camera. I think you need a friend for it. Is there a solo way 
Laughs in having a bootleg Nintendo arcade thingy 
gotta love the Mexican bootleg stuff 
Modern consoles? What's that, I'm playing picachu tetris 
The bug has been reported... Months ago and it's still there. It's either a very elusive bug or a necessary "feature" to avoid the sanctuary crashes. 
What about just make when on sanctuary level and disable Anti Aliasing.
Just chibi fall somewhere and you'll be yeeted to oob
How do i get into beta testing
Hello! I suggest giving #beta-faq a read 
Ahh the spotlight looks soo good with the red switch cape even better of you have 1 or 2 wings 
Finally Android update
Honestly if i were just starting out sky today and i saw an unlit player with the red nintendo cape the immediate thing ill thing of is:
Oh there are classes in this game, is that a medic ? 
Choose your character:
Moth, Rich Moth, Cosplaying Spirit, Advanced Moth, 🔒Veteran 🔒
Ohhh... Beta Discussion seems to be more peaceful now than yesterday.
This is the calm before the storm
(again)
Once there’s an updoot, there will be chaos once again. Enjoy this solitude while it lasts.
Agreed 😭
Switch beta is supposed to be coming by today right so the chat will explode once more
Can we open our constellation now? Did they fix the bug?
They’ll probably send out the emails during business hours tomorrow. (Still Wednesday here! And very late too!!)
Can't the astrolabe be opened until the next version?
Or... One cape then each half will depend on what Joy con you are using, which the Switch System can actually identify.
Oops forgot about timezones im glad i stay in a place where reset is at a waking hour
Tgc 175 candles for a cape?😫 have mercy
Things are subject to change in beta! Any feedback should be sent to #beta-feedback 
Is that new hairstyle definitely limited by the handheld?
i think it's still better than real money
. Btw is the Switch version out yet?
Please note: When the Nintendo Pack goes to Live, it will only be available for purchase through the Nintendo Switch. It will not be available on mobile (iOS/Android) when it is released in the Live version of Sky.
If you’re using one Joycon, it’s one color. If you’re using another joycon, it’s the other color!
Press F for those with special joycons though. They won’t know what is red or blue. But I still love my animal crossing switch. So I’ve no complaints.
Is this the place to give ideas regarding the switch?
Someone said something here and I still remember it in my heart.

#beta-feedback
tho you can share it with us too
Devs check the feedback channel for thoughts and ideas
Btw to keep the humor high, any pink log I see on the screenshot chat will be used as a greenscreen by yours truly 
Oo i haven't checked the holy pink log brb

Id love if there was a multiplayer system where two players on the same switch could fly together. Something like animal crossing where there are two players on an island. I understand it might be difficult to pursue this tho due to the online capabilities of sky rn
Like split screen on the same device?me and my friend were talking about this earlier it would be a nice touch
By the way, has anyone ever responded to the problem that the chair can't sit all the time in the game?
I'm confused what "spirits now learned how to be more personable when interacting with players" mean
I think spirits face wherever you are now? Is that new?
jeez looks like you guys' sky broke HARD
Have you checked the spirits at their gravestones yet? I’m thinking you can possibly do an emote with them similar to the assembly guide?
I mean if it is easier on the viewpoint like mario then why not hahaha cuz the one in animal crossing if a player runs off screen its just a icon and they'll have to wait for the other player to catch up before the screen is able to shift
I'm assuming this is when the Rainbow Guide offered Something to me and I don't know what it is, it just said "it'll unlock a new ability" when I bought most of it yesterday
Ktjn's hint to the personable spirits was to try comparing between live and beta when u relive their memories
It’s great! Come join the fun! 
It will only cost your soul!
I agree it is annoying.
do you think i can (this slowmode is annoying)
when does the nintendo pack will be available?
Maybe it's for spirits like piggy back or bear hug where they might pick you up now
I didnt know the spirit stones at each social space were gravestones 💀
no they're spirit container
quick qn, 1. ns pack will only be available for purchase via switch right? 2. are the cosmetics exclusive to ns? i.e am i able to wear them on mobile live after purchasing them on ns?
i am tired of the slowmode
30 seconds is already enough why two minutes
Hi! This is from #beta-announcements
Fixed bug causing players to fall from chat props when a new person enters an instance
Aww, I wish...
hopefully someday
Omg im freaking out...to the point where I can't breath switch beta starts tomorrow and still no word of who got in.....I can't take ittt!!!
@rain knoll, read about requirements to join the Switch Beta here: http://bit.ly/SkySwitchBeta
Why Zelda hair and ears are only for nintendo players 😭😭😭😭
Why TGC shows so much favoritism in their fandom.
They already did it with the chinese and Japanese. Now we are being excluded Again 😞
Hi, I think the reason is because since it contains Nintendo characters, Nintendo needs to make a profit and making it switch exclusive was probably a requirement
idk obviously but there's probably a reason for it, I don't see TGC making an IAP exclusive for no reason
Maybe if it does well on Switch, Ninty might- nah, not saying it.
Not to mention TGC doesn't have a lot of control over the Chinese servers. The exclusives and diferent things over there werent made by them
This just sad. They give the best items to others, like always.
For the chinese, i got it, they’re way too special and that happens in a lot of games.
I guess i’ll just sit and watch others have the best cosmetics and cry. Or maybe leave the game. Zelda was like my entire childhood 😭 im just disgusted
The chinese servers exist due to certain online laws, TGC doesn't even manage the Chinese servers, Netease does
Oh...I wish I could help that you feel that way...
I feel a bit...iffy about the Nintendo things, (only because of just feeling awkward about crossovers in this game, and also exclusivity and causing likely jealousy) but those were probably a requirement, unfortunately.
Also, the NetEase server isn’t theirs - they just provide things towards it, not its decisions.
the netease server is run by a different company. final decisions are not under tgc's control in that server
Have you heard about Chinese censorship. They have different laws, not favoritism
Question : In the main area of forest ( the first big one ) is it normal to have an icon with a fire asking me if i want to burn that plant on every plant i try to burn ?
Plants: Are u sure u wanna burn me? 
TGC doesn't favour favouritsm, seriously
If there's something like exclusives, the reason of that items existing is either...
- not managed by TGC ( China server )
- a thing they have to fulfill so that they can port the game there ( Nintendo Switch )
I don't think they are the best, there are a lot of items that I like more than the ones that come in the Switch pack and the Chinese server.
And it's called business, I don't think there is favoritism
Yes, they also did the same in Pubg, created their own. I’ll keep quiet cuz it’s a sensitive topic and definitely not the channel for it 😅
I won't copy and paste but my views on the Nintendo pack are here
Well i don’t mind buying it, I wish they added it on mobile too, cuz i know people are down to put money on those items.
Hello!
Anyone saw the interactions with the spirits mentioned in the update?
The only thing I noticed is that the spirits in the social spaces will look at the direction we are going,but it looks weird XD
/Yeah, let the switch moths have their fun with the pack tbh. Nintendo is a bit uptight with their stuff and switch moths....They literally missed out on what... 8 seasons ?.
still hoping to buy the hair and ocarina alone, but one can only dream, even when I have a switch 
Unfortunately they probably can't. Business says both sides need their money and Nintendo wants it through possible switch sales + Iap
I love whatever they did with the forest, atleast the social space. It's looks so nice in the cooler tone 
i personally don't really like the items in the nintendo pack, other than the ocarina, but i wouldn't pay $30 if i only wanted 1/4 items. but i do know that quite a lot of players will love the pack. plus, its not like the area is completely blocked off for mobile players. you could grab a friend with the cape, or maybe tgc will have an event that lets an npc guide you through the barrier, kind of like the office npc. there are lots of possibilities that can happen in the future
Link stands outside and makes you play a tune on an instrument and copies it with ocarina before letting you in

Have paul stationed there while wearing link costume when there's event like he did office 🤔
Anyone knows why there are beacons on prairie and forest temple (maybe all of them, i haven't checked yet) even tho i collected all the spirits 👁️👄👁️
Probably a bug then :bug:
NGL when the switch people come I really wanna go chill at the Isle temple in a travelling band welcoming new players
Maybe play some Zelda songs
Paulink cough cough
/I still wonder about why we almost always get packs, but the individual items in them can't be bought one by one
So people have the option to buy one or two items, or a pack with a Cheaper price ( compared to all 4 items prices individually ) 
But then again, I don't really understand how the logic in stuff like this works 
Last time I saw this happened was during Halloween 
Ngl tgc could earn much more if they give an option to buy individual items instead of packs
Business/marketing stuff by Nintendo? 
Business I'm afraid, I don't understand it entirely but I'm pretty sure selling it as a group pack makes people want to spend more
Oh it's like buy all or not have any of the items at all 
Ah i wish i can get the hair only
/Ah, Nintendo just being... Well.... Nintendo I guess www
With 30$, I can buy another physical switch game entirely 
the Halloween event had its own issues with separate iap and a pack. some countries had wildly different pricing for each item, and it didn't make sense when compared to the usd prices. price conversions have always been an issue in sky
Nintendo switch pack is only if u have a Nintendo????
cries in pesos, more often than not the prices reach triple digits 
Maybe in the future we get a mythical season so we also get elf ears, that's the only think i like about the nintendo pack anyways 
iirc, the individual items added up to the pack's price in usd. however, some countries had the pack cost way more than buying both individual items, and others had the individual items cost more than the pack.... it was all over the place
Ah, I didn't notice that 
Conversion sucks here. 30$ is about Rp.480k www
I wonder if they'll ever be a solution for that issue, since the economy is always moving 
Elf ears sounds like it could be a Christmas thing...but Link’s a Hylian, not an elf 
I- please dont kill me zelda fans 
Any news on switch beta?
tgc will start sending emails tomorrow (techincally a few hours) about the switch beta
It's midnight for TGC
Give them a couple of hours, they sleeping 
yeah times zones
I kind of think we would notice if there were news about it. 
Like chaotic chatroom?
Did anyone figure out how spirits are going to be more personable with players?
It might just be becuase I'm really small in comparison to my tall skid in live but, does flying seem... Smoother to you guys on beta?
servers are smaller, so i find beta to be less laggy. except for this build, i'm getting lag spikes all over the place 
I find depending on the graphics quality, flying seems smoother, but that was because I realised I was on high graphics in beta and low graphics in live 
I also think because of less players in beta. Compared to live carrying 7 kids. Horrible lags and stove phone
Yeah I noticed that my graphics can stay high in beta without my phone getting like a furnace, if I did that in live it would be lag and crashes everywhere
oh wait. i just realized that this build fixed the rapid overheating issue i was having in the last build. yay!
I really hope they fix the issue with friend constillation soon.. To farm I had to get online at exactly the same time as a friend so we'd merge in the same server together, it was stressful
I think it's kind of fun and makes meeting friends a bit more random.
Ios: deer mask, umbrella, bonfire, rhythm hair
Nintendo: new playground, link hair, 2 capes, orcarina
Android: low res rendering
Reset soon! What's everyone's plan for the day?
reset and then sneep snorp.
but i'll probably try and break something in the morning 
Does anyone know whether the Nintendo switch pack will be free on the Nintendo switch?
29.99USD
If my conversion is correct, $30 is £21 here which now doesn’t feel so bad
drawing sth while let my skykid swimming at the treehouse
after i finish my online exams :stickerGloomy:
It will be an IAP and will cost 30 usd
If it will be free, more salty players 
they'll usually add a tax after
But won't it be 📈 for switch sales?
Have the emails been sent out? 👀
Oh, thanks
OK thanks 
Is the 175 candles the final prince for the rainbow cape?
I hope they make it 70 like the bloom cape
Yes of course, Nintendo is a big company
Well that was the reason why it was in the shop in the first place XD
its barely the 6th, and its midnight for tgc. give them a few more hours
Thanks! It’s midnight for me too and brain go brrrrrr so I was just wondering
God i hope they make the cape cheaper
I was hoping that maybe, just maybe it'd be free on switch

It's always a good idea to read the patch notes, the updates channel and the known issues to keep up to date on what is happening in beta. 🙂
Has anyone gotten any emails about the beta version of Nintendo?
To add to this, this ain't Beta-faq, for beta questions, check the real faq #beta-faq 
Has anyone tried Facebook login? I really need this login method to open again 
Have yall found the jellyfish rock, i think it's in village of dreams 
what does it do :0
i think I remember the update said it
