Misc Animal Crossing screenshots
Jun. 29th, 2020 10:48 amFinally managed to transfer my images (which is a PAIN IN THE ASS requiring a MINI SD CARD of all things) so here's a bunch of screenshots!
As will surprise noone, I adore Blathers, the owl who runs the museum and excitedly tells you cool fact about everything you donate.

At first I didn't have access to much cool clothing so made my own, but the options are pretty limited. Here's my red and black ensemble, as I photobomb a wedding shoot I was paid to take photos at.

You can't actually use the wheelchair, and it's a pretty blah hospital type, but it is kinda cool having one to sit in when I'm posing a photo like this.
Here's my current outfit, achieved with help from
moonvoice and
flamebyrd. Now I want stompy purple boots irl. I need to make a better star pattern for my chair, five-fold symmetry really doesn't work on a square grid. The character is sitting in my main room, which is pretty boring right now, I don't really have a theme or anything.

By compairson this is my second room, which I have turned into an Evil Science Lair, with much help from
moonvoice:

Around the walls: skeleton, red lava lamp, metal shelves with a microscope on top, blue oil drum, pipe organ, desk, world map, red oil drum, bookshelf with large amber blob on top with a bug inside, punching bag, blue lava lamp, tools, generator, floor lights. In the centre is a lightly glowing ice table with test tubes and a bunsen burner, newton's cradle, and a pile of papers. On the floor are a book, more papers, and some candles. There's also a giant praying mantis head on the wall you can't see.
I tried making myself a lab coat but the pixels are too big and the "robe" is pretty clearly a kimono.

One eye is closed up since I'd just been stung by a wasp which I felt was IC for someone doing dangerous experiments.
No photos of my island because it's still pretty boring right now.
Anyway, still having a lot of fun with the game, though having to wait for the actual real life day to change means I don't play as obsessively as something like Stardew Valley where in-game days slip past at an addictive rate.

Thank you!

I sometimes get the timing wrong, or the game interprets my A press as "shake the tree again" instead of "use the net" but since I learned that trick I catch the wasp rather than get stung like 98% of the time.

I only just found that out about wasps! And your comment reminded me to actually use the net :)

You don't just need a card, you need a way to read it, too. Cam had it all on his desk, I just had to remember to ask him to dig it out for me while he was at home and awake, and then walk all the way across the loungeroom to grab the Switch etc. So it took a while.
