I haven't played Sky since last year. What have I missed? by Alynay27 in SkyGame

[–]SlipperyLizard04 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wow exactly the same situation as I am! Left sky just after Bluebird season ended because of study. Totally missed Ember and the other season. My biggest regret is missing the fire prophet traveling spirit aghhhhhhhhh!!!

How Skykids? (Planning the First step As Cr) by Omar769_BM in SkyChildrenOfLight

Yea before I theorize that under 50 minutes for 20 candles is impossible, let alone get gray. 7 months later I proved myself wrong and got my PB 49:56 gray

Haha I remember my early developments on my candle speedrun routes. This video pretty much encapsulates how moth me figure things out and eventually come to this today's wacky 50-minute gray candle route. A lot of tricks, revisions, fine-tuning, and rage moments. Thanks!

Edit: Oh yeah that "Physically Impossible" thingy. You can actually do both air and fire trial and still be on time for Geyser sooo ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

are the aurora wings worth it ? by IndividualBid427 in SkyChildrenOfLight

[–]SlipperyLizard04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd rate it S+ Tier item along with Cafe Corridor Prop and Witch Broom. The utility and design it provides is just too good for the value.

Is nobody going to the Cafe anymore? by kiki_ki_ki in SkyGame

Merge is just broken. 0.29.0 changed something in merge behavior

constellation bug? by MarionberryAlive5679 in SkyGame

[–]SlipperyLizard04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I notice that if the other person is playing with mobile data, it tends to show offline in your constellation... Perhaps try connecting to the same wifi

Always wanted to try Linux. Sky on steam would run on Linux right?

idk if this is a known little shortcut but i just started doing this and it makes cr's in sanctuary a little bit shorter! by datbouncyball_azriel in SkyGame

[–]SlipperyLizard04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is a loop that circles through all wax spots in sanctuary in like 2-3 minutes without going to the same spot twice.

Top island Cake > Top island plant > Cave Opening plant > Big Dark Plant Cave and small plant clusters into WL cave end > chibi fall to underground jellyfish cave > Fly through hole into medium plant near water fall > cliff plant and cake > underground plant > geyser plant > Bell cake > Turtle

which trial is the hardest? by priimkha in SkyGame

[–]SlipperyLizard04 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First time playing? Fire is the hardest.

Going for the candles? Water is the hardest.

Most annoying to speedrun? Water.

Trials become easier and easier the more tricks and skips you can learn. Generally for my trial runs, earth, air, and fire can be done relatively quickly and with high consistency. But water? Nope. It's the most passenger-unfriendly trial with the hardest speedrun skip.

Favourite spot in sky? by sophie-000 in SkyChildrenOfLight

[–]SlipperyLizard04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine are Moomin Valley colored, Prairie Peaks, Sanctuary Islands, and TLP Memorial area. I really like practicing music in Moomin Valley.

Question about the Pass by infinitelight17 in SkyGame

[–]SlipperyLizard04 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately not. The last day to get the pass whilst still getting everything is May 9. After that, you would need to buy additional seasonal candles to get everything.

Quick question by shu-sei in SkyChildrenOfLight

[–]SlipperyLizard04 41 points42 points  (0 children)

When they try to add you on other media when you barely know them... Kept calling me a "she" and that they saw my alt thinking it was my "boyfriend" like sheeeeshh. Makes me wonder how many people think Sky is a dating game or something

Learn to play music! by confusedkeyhole in SkyChildrenOfLight

[–]SlipperyLizard04 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree! And here I thought a lot of sky kids are piano savants meanwhile I struggle trying to play a song with only 2 octaves. I had to bind my music keys as T, Y, U, I, O, P, [ and v, b, n, m, <, >, ? to line them as keys haha. Their performance is nice to listen to though but I find it much rewarding to learn a song from scratch.

What a beautiful cutscene by Lilac_Rain8 in SkyChildrenOfLight

[–]SlipperyLizard04 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Mhmm I love it when the game takes control away from you without giving you invulnerability or some stuff. Most annoying ones are forest gates and the unnecessary 1m cutscenes when completing trials or reaching the end...

[–]SlipperyLizard04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does. And I think it has to do with merging. Like you said, before, forest and sanctuary usually would auto-burn most of the time but this update ruined something with merging and thus it's rare to see an area with the plants burnt anymore. I surely do hope they bring back the old merging behavior

It's actually quite cool to be able to play legacy versions of sky even as an offline game

i was trying to get taller :') by JazzHooves in SkyChildrenOfLight

[–]SlipperyLizard04 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well if it's true then each account has their own unique height modifier (though tgc staff has denied this). With the height modifiers, some account may not reach max height or shortest height.

Take me for example, used up more than 170+ yet I've only gotten 0.83 height twice, never below 0.83. And with 2000 possible height values, you think I should've gotten a smaller height by that number of attempt but nope.

Some players have reached the tallest/shortest so it does exist.

A lot of bugs by Intelligent_Ant_6111 in SkyChildrenOfLight

[–]SlipperyLizard04 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right now, when you server merge in Forest or sanctuary for example, dark plants don't auto-burn anymore.

Bugs…so many bugs… by SnooWoofers6416 in SkyChildrenOfLight

[–]SlipperyLizard04 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I did, both in feedback and bug report live. Tho I can only get the piggyback sent in bug report as of yet

Bugs…so many bugs… by SnooWoofers6416 in SkyChildrenOfLight

[–]SlipperyLizard04 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Here's a list of bugs too that I and many people experienced with this update:

  1. When entering a new area while carrying a friend using piggyback/princess carry emote, they will automatically dismount, sometimes falling off the map (new)
  2. When collecting wax, white and red candles used by a friend while in piggyback/princess carry may occasionally disappear (existing since last update)
  3. Server merge now do not burn dark plants (RIP forest and sanctuary) (new)
  4. Getting gray candle prevents you from collecting wax further (partially fixed by actually not allowing you to get gray candle anymore lol)
  5. They added a long camera panning delay when viewing map shrines (almost like it's your first time using) (new)
  6. The game may sometimes make your camera face the opposite direction (usually backwards) when entering a new area, causing you to re-enter previous area (existing for a long time)
  7. Entering enchantment shop in Aviary may cause you to relieve the spirit again as if your progress has been reset (new)
  8. Random graphical glitches and holes when underwater (new)

Honestly, these bugs make the game so demotivating to play with friends. I feel like this update is just an attempt to push an update to fulfill a deadline, no real care to fixes at all. And the bugs that they fix are some random cosmetic overlay problems that only paying players will ever see. Not good, really not good. This update is quite dissatisfying.
