#sky rant

[stargazing-sky]

Took me some time to finish this! I tried my best to make this coherent enough! -wheeze-

And with this my comms are officially open upon request.

Let me make a quick Disclaimer as I fear that's the only thing not as easily readable on this:

- Turnabout Time: +1 week depending on complexity. I have a job so it can happen that the wagecage swallows me whole for a few days. - There is no guarantee that I will take the work. This can be bound to alot of things. Me feeling not comfortable with my skills to pull off what you wish for, motivation, time, etc. Please dont take it personal...I dont necessarily NEED the money but I also will not work for free. - If you are in favour or support of AI/NFTs or any of that sorts. Dont bother trying to make me work for you/ contact me. I dont want your money nor any affiliation with you and I WILL find out. Y'all aint slick. As for TOS and all that jazz, there isnt much:

- Upon completion you own full rights! And do whatever you want with the finished piece. (My only request is to be credited as the one who made it. Thats it. I mean should be common sense.) - If there is an existing deadline, please discuss it with me beforehand. So I can figure out if I can manage making it. Any deadline below 2 weeks is a hard no straight up! - My Art is PG 16 max... Means I will accept suggestive art but I will not draw anything above that. - I will draw most things: Anthro or not, OCs, canon, yumeships/selfship, sillies and memes. I might be a little biased when it comes to that. I love me a funny hahaha little silly. - I will NOT draw complex backgrounds! As of rn I barely manage a plain one...I still am getting back into the swing of things and Backgrounds were never a strongpoint of mine. Little edit: PAYMENT METHODS! - Paypal (I will convert the price for you in your currency if needed and will most likely, if im stuck inbetween two prices, go for the lower value rounded so its a solid sum.) - Ko-fi I will create a Vgen in due time! Just bare with me im new to this stuff.

recently found out that if you unfriend someone on Sky, you will still be able to see their shared memories and spaces.

And no, not like you'll randomly stumble across them and recognize the avatar

The game thinks you're subscribed to them and will highlight the spaces.

Really great way to ruin a good mood.

adding a bit more to my last rb, i honestly think tgc should tone it down with the pricings...

Like i rmb back in sanctuary, i went on 2-3weeks without an ap and guess what even after i bought ap after so long i was still able to complete all cons! Unlike last time with remembrance i was only missing 1-2 weeks into the season without an ap but oh my fucking god the amount of effort i have to put EVERYDAY to not miss a daily bc right after i calculated i am fucking dead😭😭

And beta spoilers under the cut!

Also I did not just saw tgc SKYROCKETING the 2023 dor cape from 70 tickets to GAH DAMN 130+ TICKETS!! Thats insane! Like idk much about the tickets currency yet neither do i know bout how many can you gather in 1 day, but still! Just ridiculous, i bet you my kidneys theyre doing this so were FORCED to gather stuff everyday just so we dont have to miss an item limited only once a year...

Going back to what I was saying about IAPs....

Y'all know TGC isn't the only company who has those in their game right?

And Sky is essentially an mmo (it's massively multiplayer and it's online)

Compared to other mmos, like Aion for example, the IAPs in Sky are relatively inexpensive.

In Aion you pay real money to buy currency for their shop that sells the exclusive items and cosmetics

The least expensive coin pack is 5 bucks. But the only stuff in the Black Cloud Marketplace that's under 800 coins is the shitty blind-box type items. The cosmetics and accessories and weapon skins are all over at least 2500 coins. The costumes can be up to 7000 coins.

So don't give me that bullshit that the IAPs in Sky are "ridiculously expensive" because at most you're paying $30 for neat stuff whereas in other mmos you'd have to pay upwards of $50 just for one costume

ok yeah the new damage mechanic has been out for a while now but tgc rly said "hey idea!! What if when u get hit or whatever u lost even more light than before?? Doesn't that sound fun? oh, what's that? aww, is someone unhappy? someone doesn't like that? want your precious winged light back, you pathetic little skykid? alright. CRAWL ON YOUR HANDS AND KNEES THEN, MOTHERFUCKER"

Went to a market! Got to do some 'smithing' (hammering a cube isnt reaally smithing when the initial shape was prepared but it was super fun!!)

Glass panting! Got to buy some really cool stuff including but not limited to an entirely handmade sketchbook (including the paper) that I doodled in!

I am... so damn proud of this mic.

Yeah i admit kinda the same with the liquid as the other one but come on.

INK IS THE THEME HERE I HAD TO!!

Drew it for a friend that drew me some fanart of my sona and his.

had to fire back and make him look cool!

[stargazing-sky]

Yk people wonder why I go missing for sometimes days on end....

And then I come back from the void and be like:

"Oh yeah no I wanted to make a screen for the retrogame event me and my streamerfriends wanna do."

Said endeavor ended in:

- Completely new png avatar with phoneme and screaming detection with according frames for each and eyeblinking. (I really wanted to learn that)

- Animated an entire Background and Background elements.

- Did Mainwindows like LiveFeed, Chat, etc in Pixelart.

- Fought for 3 hours with my alerts and widgets to make them all work.

Yeah I think its time to take a break...
