This page will serve as a basic how to play guide for Journey . Feel free to edit this guide with any tips, tricks, and suggestions.

  • 1.2.1 Cloth
  • 1.2.2 The chirp
  • 1.2.3 Your scarf
  • 2.3.1 To invert camera and/or controls

Basic gameplay [ ]

Please consider reading Basics Guides , if you are having your First Journey or just started to play the game. Those give hints and links to other helpful articles.

PC versions [ ]

  • it is recommended to start the game via the launcher (see Talk:PC Version FAQ )! For some people, it seemed they couldn't connect when not using the launcher.
  • Consider using a controller; if you are on keyboard or mouse, you might want to check "Controls" below or the in-game settings to see which buttons have a function.
  • Sand settings on low or medium look more grainy. Some people say its better than having it on high setting.
  • Medium settings is the equivalent to PS3, High = PS4, Ultra is PC exclusive and Low corresponds to Vita according to Flower but not the case here.
  • For reference: FXAA, Vsync, Cloth interpolation all enabled and MSAA 2x is the closest equivalent to PlayStation and iOS versions on PC

Common hints [ ]

Journey is rather self-explanatory. In the first level you cannot meet a companion , so there is time to try out the controls and chirp at flyers , those little cloth pieces that fly around certain places.

The first level ends after a vision and walking through a corridor.

The Broken Bridge (BB) level is the second tutorial-like level and the first place where it's possible to encounter a companion. The Banners and Flyers will recharge your scarf. Try different Chirps/chiming/singing at the Flyers!

Wildlife - Banner (Broken Bridge)

Cloth, in this case two Banners.

are like energy for you. On contact or upon approaching them, they will recharge your scarf and behave in many different ways.

Chirp

A Chirp bubble.

The chirp [ ]

Chirp is your friend. It is a tool used to interact with the environment and activate things in the game.

Read more about different Chirps, about the Symbol it shows and some trivia in the article above.

Longest RR scarf

A very long Scarf, gained through collecting Symbols .

Your scarf [ ]

See article: Scarf

Your Companion's loud Chirps will also charge your Scarf, if the sound bubble hits you (applicable up to a certain distance).

Your scarf is comparable to the health or stamina bar in other games. Keep a constant eye on your and your Companion's scarf and do big chirps at your companion if you notice their scarf is emptying/empty. This is especially important when trying to fly together.

Try to keep your scarf charged via mid-flight chirps at flyers, hitting banners, etc.

Controls [ ]

Journey is naturally intended to be played with a controller , since it came out first on a console.

The table below shows the standard settings for each device.

Play the PC version of Journey with:

  • PS4, XBOX and Logitech and third party XInput controllers
  • DualShock 4 natively and emulated
  • Keyboard and mouse
  • Keyboard only
  • Mouse only (not recommended as it is very challenging)

Warning: the game might crash, if the RT button is used with a controller through the in-game options (Dualshock is not affected)

Camera movements with a controller are naturally slower than turning around with the mouse. If you are having difficulties controlling your flight , you might want to try reducing your mouse sensitivity.

iOS touch controls are mostly self-explanatory (no dedicated sitting button)

  • Movement can be on left or right side, default is left
  • Jump, chirp and camera movement can not be pressed together and are on the side opposite to movement.
  • Top-left button is Menu/Pause.
  • For more Information about the iOS version see here: IOS Version FAQ .

Alternatively, you can connect a controller to your Apple iDevice. See: How to connect a controller to your iPhone or iPad.

The standard settings for iOS version are the same as PlayStation/PC and depend on the connected MFI controller

Default control binds, PS3/4, PC (DS4, XBOX) [ ]

To invert camera and/or controls [ ].

PlayStation: Press Start/Touchpad, options, then press select. You have to press it several times to circle through the options (only camera inverted, only control, both).

PC version: Enter the menu -> Options -> Controls. There are settings for camera: OFF (standard), X, Y and X+Y (both inverted).

Options and start buttons do more than you think [ ]

Select / Share / Enter will make you sit down and meditate . Also used to communicate and for tricks. Since it doesn't start the screensaver, it could be considered the "faster" sitting.

Start / Touchpad / Options / P will start the screensaver, moving right (camera) stick or pressing start again will bring you back to normal view. It's also a forced sitting and used for tricks. To begin experiments with pause button, try using the screensaver-sitting in the slide level.

Remapping for PS or PC [ ]

You can customise your buttons with

  • In-game options or an external program on PC
  • Accessibility Settings on PlayStation 4

See Hints for the regularly travelling Wayfarer: Remapping controller .

Remapping can help to accomplish certain tricks easier (see Tips for the long-term traveler , Zen jump , Faceplant Jump (FPJ) ).

Playing offline [ ]

PC version: Playing offline without turning all network traffic off

Screen Rant

Journey: is the second player a real person.

PlayStation 4's Journey, free during Sony's Play At Home initiative, features seamless multiplayer, but is the other person real or sometimes A.I.?

The PlayStation 4's Play At Home initiative is meant to encourage people to stay at home with free games, including developer thatgamecompany's beautiful Journey . The unique, emotional game earned praise for its art-worthy visuals and award-nominated soundtrack, but one of its most notable features is its seamless, wordless multiplayer. Without text or voice chat, though, it can be hard to tell if Journey' s other player companions are real people or A.I. fakes.

Along with Journey , the Play At Home program includes Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection in an effort to keep players busy and entertained while practicing COVID-19 social distancing. Both games are free to download and keep for all PS4 owners - regardless of their PlayStation Plus subscription status - if secured before May 5. The Uncharted games are single-player, which has its own appeal during social distancing and self-quarantines, but part of what makes video games appealing in the current pandemic is their ability to connect people separated by physical space.

Related: WHO Recommends Playing Video Games To Stay Safe Against Coronavirus

Journey' s multiplayer does just that, but it does so in a way few other games have. Multiplayer is seamlessly integrated, with players simply happening upon each other in the game world, and players have only simple chirps to signal to one other. Journey has no chat system of any kind, and it doesn't even have an emote system to allow for more complicated silent communication, leaving some players wondering if they're actually playing alongside real human beings.

Is Journey's Other Player A Real Person Or An A.I. Companion?

PlayStation's online ecosystem is part of what makes Journey' s multiplayer functionality so vague. Normally, multiplayer gameplay requires a PlayStation Plus subscription , but Journey players run into other player characters even if they're not paying PS Plus members. While this may appear to indicate these other characters are just A.I. facsimiles, it seems Journey' s co-op just doesn't require a PS Plus subscription. According to the game's store page, its online features "require an account," but there's no mention of PS Plus, so this seems to refer simply to a basic PlayStation Network account. Descriptions for games like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare , on the other hand, include phrases like "requires PlayStation®Plus membership to access online multiplayer," while Journey does not.

Of course, it's entirely possible that A.I. companions could be substituting for real ones when players' online connections drop, as some Journey -playing forum users have conspiracy-theorized. But there's an easy way to prove this false: At the end of a Journey playthrough, the game tells players the usernames of the others they met along the way. These are real accounts that users can message and send friend requests to, and it's highly unlikely thatgamecompany created fake accounts just to sell an illusion. In fact, it seems that if players lose connection or otherwise don't have internet access while playing, they'll simply go through the game alone, further proving the legitimacy of this must-play PS4 game's multiplayer .

Next: Why You Should SKIP The First Uncharted Game

Journey first released for PlayStation 3 on March 13, 2012, and has since been ported to PlayStation 4, PC, and iOS.

A Look into the Signature Gameplay Animations for TopSpin 2K25

  • Learn from the developers of TopSpin about the process of capturing the new signature animations for TopSpin 2K25 , the latest installment in the beloved franchise.
  • See how these animations were implemented, amongst other new features and improvements, within the TopSpin 2K25 Gameplay Showcase.
  • TopSpin 2K25 is available for pre-order today on the Xbox Store and will launch April 26, 2024, for Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S.

As mentioned in our Gameplay Showcase Centre Court Report, TopSpin 2K25 picks up where Top Spin 4 left off in terms of gameplay and animation quality. One of the first things you’ll notice when you see or play TopSpin 2K25 is that we’ve added a lot of new signature-style animations for the players’ serves, forehands, backhands and return idles. In this Xbox Wire article, we’ll share an insight into the types of signature animations that are featured in TopSpin 2K25 , before showcasing how we at Hangar 13 created these animations: from analyzing players to Motion Capture, all the way through to animation.

When playing TopSpin 2K25 , tennis fans will certainly notice the attention to detail on some of their favorite players’ animations. For example, you’ll be able to recognize Roger Federer’s stylish backhand, Serena William’s devastating serve, or Iga Swiatek’s powerful forehand animation, just to name a few. In addition to these animations that aim at recreating the unique style of specific pros, we also captured a variety of animations that can be shared by multiple pros with similar swinging motions. Players can also use their 2K Account to add signature-styles to their MyPlayers to make them customizable, not only visually, but also in the way they move and hit the ball.

Some signature styles will be available immediately at launch, so you can begin working on your playstyle right away. We will also be adding new signature-style animations with each new Season. Players can use virtual currency to get some of their favorite signature-styles from the Pro Shop and additional styles will be available to unlock via the Premium Centre Court Pass (available for additional purchase). By the end of Season 6, TopSpin 2K25 will have over 2x the amount of signature styles featured in TopSpin 4 .

Now, we’re excited to share with you a sneak peek into the processes involved in adding these new signature styles in the game. The first step is to look at the players we have in our roster and to identify which ones have a truly unique or recognizable style for either their serve, forehand, backhand, or return idle, and to capture video references of each. Then, we create what we call a “shot list” for motion capture, which is a list of individual animations we want to capture with our athlete/actor/actress. For example, each forehand or backhand style consists of a total of nine individual animations that can play based on the height of the ball or the direction and speed of the player before hitting the ball.

Once the shot list is finalized, we’re ready to move on to the mocap stage and start capturing all these new animations. On the day of the shoot, we get Hangar 13’s mocap crew, animators, and designers together, our team of semi-pro tennis players suited up in that pretty cool-looking mocap suit to serve as our actors and actresses, and we’re ready to go. We show our actor/actress the motion we would like to capture and watch the video references with them to identify all the key poses and elements that make this motion unique. When the actor/actress is ready, they start practicing the motion to get a better feel for it, and then we record it, replay it on the monitor on the mocap stage, and compare it with the video reference. We repeat that until we’re happy with the result and it looks close enough to the reference.

With both Roger Federer and Serena Williams, we were able to spend time with them on the motion capture stage and record their actual serves, forehands, backhands, and return idles, so the final result in the game is even closer to their real style.

After the data is captured and processed by the technicians of the mocap stage it goes to the animators who apply the data to a male or female character. At this stage the animation still looks very rough, so the animators clean up all the posing, making sure that it doesn’t look broken, but also that it looks as close as possible to the style of the pro player! The animators also make sure that it adheres to the specifications, like making sure that the racket hits the ball at the expected height, or that it’s oriented properly during the swinging motion based on the type of swing. The data from the mocap includes the motion of the racket, but it does not include any motion on the fingers, so the animators spend quite a bit of time making sure the hands and fingers are properly gripping the racket.

Once the animation has had a first pass, it’s exported and checked in the engine on the pro player it was created for and that’s when we truly see everyone’s efforts come to life for the first time! The animation gets implemented and reviewed by designers in-game, after which there’s often a round of feedback and the animations are polished even further.

Truly a lot of care and attention to detail went into the animations, from start to finish. We’re eager for you to see the level of authenticity and realism present in TopSpin 2K25 — Rally On!

This story showcases the remarkable life of Grdenich, a Beaver High School graduate. Through a meticulously curated display of compelling images and narratives that surround the actual propeller from Grdenich’s downed P-38 fighter aircraft, visitors will gain insight into the pilot’s extraordinary life journey, from his upbringing in Bridgewater to his ultimate sacrifice on the WWII battlefield.

“Laying my hand on this propeller instantly gave me chills," museum trustee Ed McLaughlin said about his first encounter with the war-torn artifact, donated to the museum by the Grdenich family. "I overwhelmingly agreed that this story must be shared."

On opening day, the Heritage Museum welcomed some of Grdenich's family who came to see the display, including Ryan (his great-nephew), Elaina, and Jonathan Fleming (his great-great niece and nephew), and Barbara Snyder (his niece). Their presence added a deeply personal touch to the exhibit, underscoring the significance of the pilot’s legacy to his family and community.

"Out of the Unknown" is not just an exhibit; it is an exciting adventure that takes you from Beaver High's football field to the deadly skies over the Normandy landing beaches,” McLaughlin said. “Will the family find closure trying to solve a mystery lasting nearly six decades?”

The museum will add to this exhibit throughout the year. Visitors are encouraged to stop by often to see what has been added.

"Out of the Unknown" replaces the museum's 2022-23 exhibit "Saint or Sinner? The Complicated Legacy of Senator Matthew Stanley Quay of Beaver, PA," which won multiple awards, including most recently a Special Achievement Award from the Pennsylvania Federation of Museums, which comes with a $1,000 check at the April 15 presentation in Harrisburg.
