We just updated the Remnants of Skystone pre-release version with some new pirate-themed Scallywag clothing, some new colors for Crag clothing with the new Rockytop line, and some modular colored tiles you can place on your walls and floors of your Float to create mosaics and patterns.

Skystone Update (version 0.8.09)

We updated the pre-release version of Skystone today with a couple new quests, and a variety of new clothing and furniture for non-members and Nidarian Guard members.  Since there are a lot of new items to take in, we took some screenshots of what’s new in the stores today:

Bombradier and Flyright Clothing

Lana’s Clothing Emporium has some new items for the Stiltskin outfit, as well as new styles for the Aeronaut lines of clothing shown above.  The yellow-and-brown Bombradier clothing and the blue-and-white Flyright clothing will be featured in Lana’s store and replacing the Aeronaut Basics, which will still be available as starter clothing when starting the game.

Game Room

Wystan’s Furniture Outlet is featuring a new line of Game Room furniture, which includes billiards, darts, and Pin the Tail on the Pustosser.  A handful of new drinks and snacks are also available in the furniture store, as well as a line of Grubskin beanbag chairs styled like Blowgrubs, Firegrubs, and Cactigrubs.

Steamphonic Instruments

For Nidarian Guard members, the merchant Emma will be selling the above Steamphonic Instruments as props for your Float.  The line includes a guitar, bass, and microphone (all with attached tube-powered amps), and a large drum kit.

Nature Series

Aspen, the Nidarian Guard merchant in the Boiler, is featuring a new line of natural furniture for your Float.  There are a number of log stumps and rocks that are used as seating, some large trees which work nicely in the foreground, and a large animated waterfall.  Packs of water tiles can also be purchased to design a winding stream along the floor.

Caverns Series

Also for Nidarian Guard members, the merchant Rusty is selling a line of Caverns-themed furniture similar to the style used in Co-op Trailblazing.  This series includes wall and floor treatment, a number of holes to place on the walls and floor, and some stone-carved tables, stools, and pillars.  Completing the series are three sizes of stalagmites to place in your Float.

These updates are available today for players that currently have access to our beta/pre-release version of the game.  We’re gradually letting more Kongregate users into the game, so if you haven’t had a chance to try Remnants of Skystone yet, you may be able to join soon.
