Starting a miniature diagrams project for class and I am so excited. I’m going to mix the fantasy of Minecraft elements with the vibe of the hidden Forest for Sky:COTL as well as just general fantasy. I also want to have lights in it. This is going to get intricate fast.

I’ve been feeling this way too. I’ve been playing since season of moments and I’m pretty much a solo player because no one really stops to say hi. Wax events like Grandmas (especially Grandmas) are so sad cuz everyone’s afk, but at the same time, I get it because everything costs a million candles. I was doing CRs every day and just got so burnt out and sad I could t take more time to enjoy walking around and looking.
I do still love the game, but it feels like a job I can’t enjoy, sometimes. I think one of the best changes TGC could make rn is just lowering prices. I’ve liked the seasons and stuff, but needing to grind everyday to afford one of the limited time items sucks.
In this essay, i will explain the reasons why sky children of the light has become an increasingly unwelcoming game to new players and veterans alike-
Yeah yeah i usually only share my words here but tumblr feels like a really comfy place for me to share unfiltered thoughts and i needed somewhere to vent ig (skip if you have no idea what I'm talking about)
When I first started playing in prophecy, sky was a really fun game. We didn't have the request for a guide function then and I'm actually really grateful for it because the joy was in exploring each of the different realms and season areas on my own and randomly stumbling across spirits whose stories were waiting for me to discover. Maybe it was because I was a dumb moth - i didn't even know how to access seasonal spirits trees - but the pressure to cr just wasn't as intense as it is for moths today. The back to back seasons and "days of" events seem to have sucked the fun of exploring the world of sky for moths because they're so focused on grinding for candles/hearts/event currency that they just dont slow to smell the in-game roses anymore. And the thing is I get it because there's just so many new cosmetics as well as older ones from past seasons and events to farm for.
I mean sure you don't have to collect every cosmetic but 1 cape costs like 70 candles on average, same for a pair of pants iirc, a prop/acessory at 40-70 candles (70 if its an instrument??) , and hair at around 40-50 candles; and the best part is you can only earn 20-21 candles max in 1 reset 🤡 Add all of that plus the need to look for event currency in fear of facing such prices in the event rerun and you get stressed out moths facing existential crises every 2 weeks when ts arrives😀 Sorry moths, the economy is bad irl and just as bad in sky.
And what of the veterans? Yeah, well, we get no friends as everyone starts to quit the game and those that stay live off copium revisiting the places we once visited with friends- Or maybe that's just me
New friends, you say? *cue flashback to moths begging for help with cr* we exchanged like maybe 5 sentences max at chat benches🥲 i have nothing against helping out but it does make it difficult to form a bond when they disappear right after and you fade into their constellation of ubers
And then we have the seasons.
... Honestly the only season that made an impression with me after aurora was the recently concluded season of the 9 coloured deer, which was also another collab season💀
I actually had to check the sky wiki for this:
Remembrance - ironically very forgettable. What was the story again? Was it the one with the group of spirits living in one specific hole in vault like why- vault is bigger than that sad hole- OH THE PLUSHIES okay maybe this one was passable... im trying okay
Passage - ??? Havent finished this season's quests so uh- so far it seems like... a cult..? In isle...?
Moments - if they wanted a camera in-game, they could have just added it to like the days of sunlight event (the camping one) or smtg. They did not have to force a season for a camera💀 imho the camera was the only thing worth mentioning abt this season and i don't even take pictures
Revival - i suppose aviary is pretty and it's nice that the spirits have somewhere to stay now. Not particularly impressed. Don't really remember the story in this one.
...i heard rumours of a furniture season after the 9 coloured deer. Looking forward to hearing what they'll name this one lmao
The quality of "days of" events is still acceptable to me. Just maybe ignore the numerous iaps and the fact that we have multiple umbrellas but only 1 is f2p (don't understand whats up w that btw)
And also the recurring bugs💀 I've been playing for at least 3 years and I've faced these bugs/problems multiple times:
1. Unable to light frends constellations because the screen just yeets itself into oblivion or some random environment feature where i cant press the button
2. Game crashes (after every update istg-)
3. Splitting servers
4. Sky discrimination and gate keeping, aka refusing to let me open the game
5. Being unable to collect currency/dailies (it's not my internet i checked)
The lack of compensation is another matter entirely
I don't know man I'm tired. The only reason why I still have it installed is because it's my only link to the people I used to have fun and relax with. Not everyone has discord or insta or some other social media.
If you made it this far thank you for coming to my ted talk. Feel free to leave your thoughts- just remember to be respectful
Tldr:
The sky economy is bad. For everyone. Moths (and maybe even vets) are stressed out and vets are losing friends. The seasons are increasingly dull and the long-lived bugs are frustrating.

Omg this is great, I’d love to hear more! Some of that I’ve seen portrayed in fan comics and stuff, but it’s great having a clearer explanation. I didn’t know Resh and Aleph were the same person!
Thanks for the reply!
Hello sky kids! I’m writing some Sky cotl bits and I can’t find good sources of world building/lore information about sky. Things like what are the minerals mined on treasure reef used for? What was food? Was there food? Or any small bits or lore that the game doesn’t explicitly tell you. Even if it’s a head cannon, if it’s kind of just agreed on in the community, I’d love to hear it! Reblog or mention in the comment section thing lol.
Thanks!!

Consider interaction initiated
I'd love to interact more with the Sky community on Tumblr, alas I'm too socially awkward and anxious to initiate interactions

Guys, I’m so happy, they lowered the price of Daydreamers hair from 60 candles to 44! That’s huge!
The price in the wiki and everywhere I could find said 60 and they freaking lowered the price substantially! 44 feels actually obtainable omg.

im disappointed that i wasted 20$ on a cape that has no purpose to the secret area where the deer is. i feel betrayed that my comfort game did this to us..
my best friend that i met on sky is trying to cheer me up on discord and im just so out of it.

And with that, I have the whole Stagehand outfit, and no candles left in my wallet. SO glad there’s ANOTHER traveling spirit this weekend.

In a World that tells you to toughen up. That says you have to be harsh to get to the top. That the real world isn’t all daisies and roses. That in order to win, you have to defeat all others.
Be kind.
Because action affects the environment around you. And if we all were a little kinder. The World just might be a little kinder too.

This is so true, and one of the many reasons I love Phil so much.
It’s Phil, of course dad knows what he’s doing!
i trust we’re all mature enough now so can i just the say philza ace race incident? genuinely one of the funniest fucking things to ever come out of mcc. it’s up there it’s the mcc7 battle box incident. so many grown adults decided to ignore the actual track signals because of their immutable trust in philza minecraft and i think that’s beautiful

It feels so silly to be so sad about it but I’m 100% on the same page. Stagehand and Performance Guide are some of my favorites and seeing one blue and one yellow feels like splitting them up? That and it’s just so different to see, now.
WAS JUST LOOKING THROUGH THE SKY DISCORD SCREENSHOT CHANNEL AND REALISED STAGEHAND WILL BE YELLOW FOREVER WHEN I GET THE WING BUFF IDK HOW TO FEEL ABOUT THIS
the only solution is to skip the wb entirely as atm I only plan to get the cat hood from them. they've only ever been blue and while I love the meme potential this will create I don't think I'm mentally prepared for it
