I was so excited to buy the disco ball specifically to use as a beacon to call attention and get help (with 4 player doors, yeti race, to mark for others where the turtle darkness bloom ended up, to give focus to good musicians, but most importantly the 4 player assembly quest), and was finding it surprisingly effective (I only had to wait like 15 minutes before 3 players showed up to do the quest!), it was really the main reason I was willing to spend so many hearts, only to now find out none of the other players could actually see its glowing lights, and it was all just a lucky coincidence 😂😂

I think having these little parties happen (not too clear in the image, but we were all dancing lol) must have given me the wrong impression 😳

For the record, I can completely understand why it is this way, with the disco ball especially, with photosensitivity and all that, but I figured at least the shell would work like an instrument (which can be muted separately already).

Oh well, live and learn. Won’t stop me throwing impromptu discos though, or wishing I could carry both these props at the same time! 🎉😂

    Well, that makes two of us :/ Though I swear skykids arrive the moment I setup the disco ball…

    However, for those curious enough, there is another way to always carry a portable disco that everyone can see💃🕺

      Haha, glad it’s not just me who both thought others could see it, yet still got the disco-placebo effect we were looking for lmao

      Thanks for the link, I don’t have the lantern yet, but it’s good to have something to look forward to lol and maybe try that technique out with some other props (the tournament torch, perhaps?)!

      In the meantime I’ll just have to settle for the impromptu parties at wax events 😁

          Very true, just the other day I made a couple of new sky friends after we all danced around the geyser together!

          Also, I forgot to add in my last reply - recently I’ve taken to getting on the disco ball to dance/meditate, and I was wondering, since it might not be on for everyone, do they see me on it in its off position, or do they see me floating there above it, randomly dancing in mid air? 🤔😂

            That actually never crossed my mind, I’m pretty sure they just see a floating skykid that forgot gravity existed :P
