Hello Soda Crushers!

You’ve all seen the new Kimmy in your games or in the Community: she’s growing as the game grows and evolves, and it was time for a new look- in 3D!

Behind the scenes

Wanna know more about how and why these changes?

🎤Let’s give the mic to one of the Kingsters from the amazing Soda Studio who have made it possible:

“When we first began investigating a new design for Kimmy, something that quickly became obvious to us was that our main protagonist of Soda didn't make much of an impression with our players. In fact, most people didn't recognize ever having seen her before, even fewer knew she had a name! We wanted to change all that, both visually and thematically, make her the hero she actually is. We truly believe that in her new and improved 3D form, we'll at long last be able to do her justice! In the adventures that await you all in our Sodalicious not-so-far-away future, we hope you'll finally get to know and love the real Kimmy, for her fiery personality, her resourcefulness and wit!”

Isn’t it exciting? And now, it’s your turn: please share your thoughts and feelings with us, Soda Crushers!

👉 Are you ready to get to know our Kimmy better? 

👉 Excited about her new adventures?

👉 Up for this not-so-far-future that awaits us in Candy Crush Soda?

The Soda Studio is listening! Help us make the game even sweeter!

Good morning @LadyRaffie, @Lola_Pop and @Diamond Lim! Thanks for the discussion and the tag.

Soda Studio team ~ It is wonderful that you have advanced the design of the game to 3D!

Also thanks for the explanation of why Kimmy’s look had changed.

I personally do not care for her new look though. She lost her cuteness and as another player pointed out to me she kind of looks like a boy now.

But I do love the hair bow and am excited for the future of the game!

@Lola_Pop

Hello!

Animation is too much in the game for me. Yes, there are different types of people. Some like it and are happy and are animated by it and others, then maybe put the game aside. You can't please everyone, that's clear. But I really don't like it. And therefore concentrate more on my levels, because they are more important to pass !! Yes, there are also various disease pictures at the start !! Sorry!!

Greymane

Thanks for the tag queenie @Diamond Lim

Weeell i love the bow, not so much the new face🤷.. Buut the 3D effect is amazing😊. And i hope they also improve the interface too where we can have search bar or portal or whatever to go back to the levels we want without scrolling too much.. Otherwise excited for the future of the game👻

MightyWolf

Alright! Absolutly! 🥰

@Lola_Pop @LadyRaffie

👉 Are you ready to get to know our Kimmy better? 

Well I'm not gonna lie, Kimmy is way way WAAAAAY better than the original design, she looks cuter now with her costume and her hair looks very nice... I love her now... and i love what the team saids! 😍

👉 Excited about her new adventures?

Of course yes i waiting for her adventures and her story, I'm carious how the story will work but hope it will be have the same story feature in Candy Crush Tales, complete the story of an episode and collect boosters!

👉 Up for this not-so-far-future that awaits us in Candy Crush Soda?

Well i'm ready for the change and i think on the next couple of weeks i will be excited for the new look and whole revamped Candy Crush Soda... That's my preduction but it will become true at some point!

I hope that the team fix my major problem so i can come back to this game!

Until Next time...

See you around.... 🥰

I can understand people not knowing Kimmy's name, but I mean, are you seriously implying many players overlooked her awesome karate outfits and expressions in difficult levels previews? How can Kimmy not leave an impression while she wears them? I'm not buying it. 🤣 by the way, I hope those Karate Kimmies stay there.

New Kimmy is a different character from the old. She portrays a different personality. I'm not saying it's bad, she seems to have a more prominent role now. in the end she doesn't change the game. I'll get used to her and the shock will wear off

I'm still looking forward to changes in the navigation map that improve accessibility ❤

@LadyRaffie thanks for explanation and chance to go behind the scenes about Kimmy's new look and adventures to come. Thanks for the tag @Diamond Lim .

Hello @Lola_Pop and the designers behind Kimmy.

I have always loved the character that is Kimmy. I really didn’t know her name but I know she was a intricate part of the game. She was there in the beginning and will be there in the end (I hope).

The old Kimmy was what I thought of Candy Crush but I guess everything changes eventually. She does look like a young boy and she doesn’t look so sweet and innocent anymore. The 3D effect is cool and graphics is awesome too.

As for what the future entails, I hope it’s something great. Let me put it another way. I know it’s something great. 👍

Thank you for all that everyone does for us players and the games. Keep up the great work. 💕👍

Thanks for the tag @Diamond Lim 💕

Hi @LadyRaffie @Lola_Pop @Diamond Lim thx for info & tag,

Well I re-posted below, what I posted at:

• Kimmy and Yeti are back in town! How do they look? 😏 — King Community
• https://community.king.com/en/candy-crush-soda-saga/discussion/316853/kimmy-and-yeti-are-back-in-town-how-do-they-look/p1

What do you think of their new looks? *Liked Kimmy's old look better, she was a happy looking girl, now looks more like a unhappy tomboy, instead of a girl. Yeti is ok, at least he is laughing.

👉️ Do you like the fact they are 3D characters? *Sure.

👉️ What about their face expressions? *Kimmy's is bad, Yeti could look happier.

👉️ And what about the way they move? *Nice feature.

👉️ What do you think is better now, what did you like more in the old design? *I liked the happier looking Yeti & Kimmy in the old design, like the movement in the new design, but that is about it.

_________________________________________________________________

👉 Are you ready to get to know our Kimmy better? *Do know her, of course if there is something I don't know, then please tell us.

👉 Excited about her new adventures? *Well until I know what those new adventures are first, it is difficult, to get excited about something, that I have no knowledge of yet.

👉 Up for this not-so-far-future that awaits us in Candy Crush Soda? *Sure.

I agree on what @Pitty_Kitty said / posted above. Really need to shift priorities here. While I certainly enjoy aesthetics, as much as the next person. Functioning or workable things, should be first.

• I'm still looking forward to changes in the navigation map that improve accessibility ❤

In 100% agreement with her statement above. Might want to see my review on it, btw.

• New Soda Navigation Map! - Page 12 — King Community
• https://community.king.com/en/candy-crush-soda-saga/discussion/310022/new-soda-navigation-map/p12

Hope this helps.

👉 Are you ready to get to know our Kimmy better? 

I never had trouble getting to know the old Kimmy. I love writing stories about her. Her new look is much better than the old look.

When I wrote stories about the 2 sisters the old Kimmy just didn't look right with Tiffi from Friends. Now you can see how much better she's going to be for my stories using the two sisters that are now 3D. I LOVE how you changed her. THANK YOU Soda Kingsters for the awesome change!

👉 Excited about her new adventures?

So does that mean there might be a new storyline to go with her new look? The old storyline was Kimmy searching for Tiffi all over because she stopped getting messages from her sister. So if you do create a new adventure please make me aware of it so that I can create a new story for her.

👉 Up for this not-so-far-future that awaits us in Candy Crush Soda?

Are you referring to the map or the game?

Ashraf

I love her so much ♥️♥️♥️
