Hi! im Marnie, and while I've had this game since launch, i only really just started getting really into it so I'm still just a moth. Be my friend!
I made this drawing as the 5th anniversary of Sky started. I got so excited that I bought that simple outfit by changing my ascended candles for tickets so I could get it sooner. And so I started making this drawing.
I left it behind because I didn't like how it was turning out, I was putting so much detail, trying to shade and render everything... I started to dread it, the thought of opening was uncomfortable.
The text came along with the drawing too, it's from a song that I really like, called "Por las veces" by Conchita, it says:
"And although now it seems almost impossible
The Sun always rises here and you found it alone
And it is that you are only one step away from erasing the wound
I promise you that your dream is tailor-made for you"
...
Sky has felt different these last few days, in a bad way. Did you see how the last update affected the game? It was impossible to log in and play. The Discord chat was chaos and instead of doing something, TGC just stayed quiet.
TGC has done nothing to help those who couldn't log in and play, no compensation for no one. I might sound selfish but there's already been many problems that take so much time to fix and their reaction to them is "oopsie :3" (this is an exaggeration, they didn't say this.)
I couldn't add friends for months, Grandma didn't work for like a month, I still have trouble seeing some friends online and being able to tp to them (nothing to do with no connection or server issues).
I talked with my friend about this, I don't want to leave the game, I like it, love it even. You can clearly see it in my blog. But I can go back to how I played it when I first installed it. Return to how I played it when I was just a moth. Return to the simple things. No rushing stuff. No more candle running every day desperate to reach 19 candles to then spend them on the next TS. I'll just sit back and let everything pass. It's been a year and now I feel like I'm playing the game correctly.
And now, back to the drawing. I saw it today sitting at my pendrive, unfinished. And so I opened it and deleted all the shadows and my process. And so I left it simple. As it was meant to be.
It's almost 2 am I don't know what came over me. I hope TGC gives me 1000 candles, bye
I wanted to write something nice but nothing comes to mind. Well, Altair and orion looking at a huge krill coming out of the storm clouds.
I just don't know how to draw clouds so if you see water, it works too.
