My island theme is just something rustic and wooded looking. It doesn't need a large amount of work since a lot of it involves trees. Tongue

Also I'm super hyped for this upcoming update!



I expected swimming to be added at some point but it's still exciting to see. Although it sucks for Southern Hemisphere players who probably won't get any updates until the North gets them later.

I'll check my southern hemisphere island & let you know how it goes. Atmo, since the update I love the swimming!


RE: Animal Crossing: New Horizons - Moonface - Jul 7th, 2020

Oh you didn't pick a Northern Hemisphere island @"sunshine queen"?
Also, since you've got a five star island, how often do you get those Lily of the Valley flowers?

I really like the swimming too. I was worried about seeing the boundary nets from the shore, but I like that they only fade in when you get close to them. If I had one criticism about swimming, I dislike that you can't release anything you catch unless you have a full inventory and catch something else. If I can release something after catching something else on a full inventory I should be able to release it at any time in the water.

Also, if anyone wishes that the wetsuit could be put onto a wand, the best thing to do is make the wetsuit your standard outfit and then use the wand to put costumes on top of it. That way you only need to remove it when you shop at the Able Sisters and you don't have to keep taking off your shoes when you go swimming if you want to play to the idea of keeping your shoes dry.

I think she has two islands, IIRC? Hmm

Loving the update so far. The diving/swimming is a pretty chill activity, and the pay off to some of the critters is pretty nice as well =3


RE: Animal Crossing: New Horizons - queenzelda - Jul 9th, 2020

Actually, yea I have 2 switches. I have a Switch Lite & a regular Switch that way I can stream it. For the Switch Lite I choose Southern. For the regular one, it's northern. That way I have the best of both worlds. Also, as long as my island is at 5 stars I get in lily of the valley growing in my town about once per week. Which is fine by me. I have so far moved two of the flowers to the entrance & plan to move more over to the front of my town.

My only issue with the swimming is that there are no jellyfish to sting you like in New Leaf, but I'm weird. :p


RE: Animal Crossing: New Horizons - Moonface - Jul 28th, 2020

As expected, the next update brings fireworks, as well as the ability to visit other players islands by going to sleep.



Looks cute, but I'm waiting for that Fall update! OwO

I'm hoping that Aiko's village will return in some form or another with the introduction of the dream suite. Smile


RE: Animal Crossing: New Horizons - Moonface - Aug 10th, 2020

I've heard there are horror themed villages in New Horizons. Some players have been reporting them because they don't find them child friendly. Rolleyes


RE: Animal Crossing: New Horizons - queenzelda - Sep 3rd, 2020

Oh yea, I've seen some streamers even go to the nightmare towns & stream them. I just wonder if we're going to be planting crops sometime in Oct or Nov myself. xD


RE: Animal Crossing: New Horizons - Moonface - Sep 3rd, 2020

If anything to do with crops was going to be added to the game, it would definitely be for a Fall Harvest event. I doubt eating food will do anything though so maybe if you can eat stuff it'll just be for fun like how villagers do it, and otherwise the stuff you grow can be used for crafting decorations somehow.


RE: Animal Crossing: New Horizons - Moonface - Sep 25th, 2020



OH MY GOD THE HYPE! Wow


RE: Animal Crossing: New Horizons - queenzelda - Sep 25th, 2020

I just watched that video this morning. I went into my town & cleared away a flower area so I could grow pumpkins there for dyi based Halloween items. Just 5 more days & I'll be planting pumpkins & getting ready for Halloween: woot!


RE: Animal Crossing: New Horizons - ShiraNoMai - Sep 25th, 2020

That song is so catchy; cant wait for the update either!

We should turn our backyard area into a pumpkin patch Wow


RE: Animal Crossing: New Horizons - Moonface - Sep 25th, 2020

1:21 in the video is interesting. In the bottom left you can see an area of the lowest land cut away like when you make a body of water, but there's a pumpkin in the spot. It's either a clever use of the camera to make something on land appear to be lower, or you can actually put something in the water. I'm doubting it's the latter though.
