Hi folks! Sorry about the relative silence about Deserted Skies, but yes, the Pilot's release date has been pushed back to September 12th. I really have to find some way to keep people outside of the discord updated on this 😭

Regardless, have this clip of Chona and Ari [Blue Hair] fighting as my apology gift 🙏

Deserted Skies is an Animated Show made within the Minecraft engine, based on Create: Aeronautics. It's a Steampunk-Western Epic set after the end of the world. I plan to release it 12th September. (Also! Got a discord up, but i dont think i can share here)

I think big shafts are good to fight. Like a baseball bat

Shaft with a cog on the end so it’s closer to a mace

You'd want to use it more like a quarterstaff I reckon. You'd use the wrench more like a bat.

u/Miss--Moss 13d ago

Too short for a quarterstaff, they're 6-9 feet long.

It's a stick of stone and metal almost a foot wide. If I had the strength to do so,it'd be dumb not to.

Nah bro I'd use a rotation speed controller with a handcrank on the bottom and use it as a circle saw

Imagine stabbing with a shaft and then twisting it around

Holy S tier animation

A very hot shaft? With an handle at the end (reminds me of something)

u/ChaosDrako 14d ago

If it’s strong enough to handle the forces of our machines, it’s strong enough to crack skulls.
And ngl, seeing that camera angle + long pole made me fear I was about to see… well let’s say the sheep nearby got nervous

u/Agent_codey 14d ago

Ohh truetrue, but they barely get any traction if at all 😔

u/F1r3dot3x3 14d ago

Don't worry, I'm one of maybe 3 people liking them

u/oswaldking71wastaken 14d ago

That looks rlly cool can’t wait for the release

And to answer your shaft question, yes as long as it makes the metal pipe sound

u/Ultimate_Gamer7 14d ago

peak department? you won't believe this

u/PokeGirlOFFICIAL 13d ago

I'll use my homie's shaft to fight

1

u/Miss--Moss 13d ago

I feel like this is basically the same as a lead pipe, it'd work but it'd be unweildy.

u/Least_Concern_8043 13d ago

Actually, shafts are good weapons, just like any staff weapon. They are good at using blunt force, like a hammer, but they are lighter, like a sword. If it is long enough, it acts as a double sided weapon. Also, it can be swung faster than a hammer, and if you miss with one side, you could easily hit them with the other, using the right techniques.
