Hey guys crawling out of my grave before lying back down to deliver a message i must pass on

Join us in celebrating Sky's 5th anniversary with a HUGE AURORA concert gathering!

During the anniversary the AURORA concert will be accessible for all skykids (the wings will be on display on the office roof and warp you to the concert area). What better opportunity to once again experience the AURORA concert with a huge crowd!

We'll be doing two times to accommodate all time zones:

🏟️ Concert 1: 6 hours after reset

🏟️ Concert 2: 18 hours after reset

⭐️Brought to you by the Sky Community-driven AURORA Concert Organizing Group, (SCACOG) in collaboration with Aurora 2.0, ALAS (Alianza Latinoamericana de Sky) and the Sky Creator Troupe.⭐️

🦋 Hope to see you there!

I attended the art gallery in game last night and it was awesome! I’m sure other people have better screenshots than me but I just had to share.

I find it really cool and interesting that the different places are based on different virtues.

Also lemme just say, the guardian spirit here looks kinda creepy. I wonder why they depicted him this way?

Also WE GOT LORE!!! WE GOT OFFICIAL LORE!!! The king sacrificed himself in order to produce a new generation of Sky children. Which fits Eden’s aesthetic of Sacrifice. But WHY did he have to, and who was he fighting? I’d love some more context behind this.

Sky lore peeps! Share your thoughts!!

Thatgamecompany why did you do this on my account. whatever, happy skyfest to the entire sky children of the light community. ﾟ.+:｡∩(・ω・)∩ﾟ.+:｡

guys they JUST announced that the Two Embers will also be seasons in sky in 2025 HOW ARE WE FEELING SKY GANG

[slarincho]

I went to SkyFest.

[tanzdoesthings]

wow wow wow! so much happening for SkyFest!! i visited all of the live events today, and here’s what i saw.

first the big keynote, the state of sky.

seeing these massive crowds is crazy, and to see acknowledgement of the QOL improvements players are looking for? yes!!! i am so hopeful seeing the votes on reducing the grind in sky. i quit playing right before season of aurora because of it.

we have confirmation on 4 seasons. Duets, Moomin, and in 2025 there will be two seasons for the Two Embers. my prediction is that it will be for the dawn ember, then the dusk ember, played alongside the release of the series. i think that it will be the summer and fall seasons, and that there will be a spring season between moomin and two embers.

there was confirmation that the clip is at the end of the first episode.

then onto the guided tour! as a game developer, this was SO COOL to see! one prototype in here looks like something i have made before. its reassuring to see that familiar environment and know what it can become.

there was certainly some tech issues, but it was neat to be toured around, and i have a recording of it. seeing all the techy background just makes me so happy.

myself and @serenefork attended events together, and took a break in the middle to watch the AURORA concert! (EVERYONE can watch it for free now, just visit the office and the cape is on display for use!)

moving on, the tech keynote was VERY INTERESTING to me, as its the things i am actively studying. they mentioned looking for people to hire and by god i wish i was there in person to ask questions and get info out of these engineers. it was a bit funny to turn around and see the room much emptier than the first keynote, though.

overall, a lovely time! its good to see all the info on the problem solving done to make such cool events real. here’s to the betterment of sky! see y’all tomorrow!

reasons why I love the Sky community:

I was just at the Aviary parade and as Hopeful Steward walked round on their own with no other spirits following because there were no others in their season, I noticed loads of skykids following behind them so they wouldn't be walking alone

I love that skykid hivemind thing we have going on where we all collectively think "hey this thing is happening. wouldn't it be nice if everyone reacted to it by doing this?" and we know we can't make that happen alone but we all decide to do it anyway, and it does happen because we all did our little part in it

Skyfest central european time

Hmm to stay up late or wake up early?

Also this is the venue plan so I dunno what goes where in game and if anything is streamed live somewhere ( ﾉ ﾟｰﾟ)ﾉ
