For anyone who cares, a small sample of my favorite Animal Crossing: New Leaf QR codes

After spending just about a month and a half with Animal Crossing: New Leaf, I'm finally at a place where I'm pretty darn happy with the look of my town. As such, I thought I'd take a moment today to share some of the QR codes I've put to use while developing Animachi.

For instance, here's the path design that twists and turns its way around my humble borough:





(I found it while perusing the wonderful merongcrossing.tumblr.com, by the way.)

I considered using the following design instead, but in the end I preferred the more natural look of the one above.



That said, if I ever buy another copy of this game (a distinct possibility given the number of 3DSes in my possession at the moment), I may finally put it to use.



I also like the path design shown above, but I've been unable to find a QR code of it anywhere. (FYI: QR codes for the "little boats on water" pattern can be found here.)

Those of you who have visited Animachi in person or via its Dream Address (5600-2252-0337) likely have encountered the adorable Isabelle "photo face board" that sits just a hop, skip and a jump away from the town's Re-Tail shop.



It was nabbed from soeurs-doigts-de-fee.skyrock.com, in case any of you would like to know where I first came across it.

Finally, I'd be remiss if I didn't point out the fabulously fungal pattern that covers the walls of my main character's (Mayor Aino) cozy study.



It was produced by Pixiv illustrator Meyu, by the way, and I was turned onto it by my pal Anne (of chic-pixel.com).

If any of you have favorite New Leaf QR codes you'd like to introduce me to, please feel free to do so in the comments section below.

I'm loving that study. Such cute patterns.

Thanks, Justin! And, yeah, they are cute, aren't they? Amazing what some folks have been able to come up with so far...

Gosh! I really don't want to create other neighbors just so I can store more codes, but this is really really rad.

thegaygamer.com said...

I hear ya, Zach. I'm glad I created a second character right off the bat, because it would be hard for me to do so now thanks to how I've set up my town. Sadly, I'd like to add a third--who would act simply as a design/storage mule--but it just wouldn't work, I think :(

One of my favorite QR codes is a Doctor Who outfit for the 11th Doctor: http://bit.ly/13wgQED
I just wish the game had a fez I could wear with it.

Oh, that's sweet, Terry! Thanks for sharing. Maybe I'll have to change my guy character's outfit soon to include this jacket :)

Zach said...

Yeah! I'm too caught up in the immersion, I would feel awful when the villagers would go, "Hey, I haven't seen [mule] for a while. Wonder where he went. :(" That used to happen when I shared my worlds with siblings on the cube, and my poor heart couldn't take it.

You're using the mushroom pattern! It looks awesome! I might finally cave and make myself a second character just for patterns... There's so much I want to do with my town!

thegaygamer.com said...

Ah, I forgot about that aspect! Wouldn't really bother me, but I can understand if it would bother you.

thegaygamer.com said...

Yeah, I seriously wanted to recreate the NOJ town's Pikmin room in one of my homes, but that would require every one of one of my character's eight design spaces (if not more) :( Oh, well.


Also, YES, I'm using the mushroom pattern. I had to--I love it! Really want to use the blue one as well at some point, but I haven't figured out how or where...

I'm kind of tempted to also use the mushroom pattern as wallpaper in my study/gym but I shall resist as I'm trying not to copy other people's houses.

thegaygamer.com said...

Eh, I say go for it if you like it, Sam! It's not like the decor of your study is going to be exactly the same as the one in my home!
