Cave? O_O

[Elisha]

First off, I would like to apologise if this has already been discussed, I just couldn't find much about it! Edit: I searched some up about the cave, theres not much discussion so I hope this brings more theories/ideas if the cave is implemented!

I was looking at the town map's concept art, and couldn't help but notice it reminds me alot of Animal Town, from the Animal Crossing movie. To those that haven't seen it, during the story the protagonists set off in search for fossils and go through a cave on a boat just like Kap'ns. And due to this, I even spotted a Cave in the side of a cliff!







Lemme know what you think!

I can see the movie causing some of the inspiration. I hope the cave is real because it opens up a bunch of possibilities. I could see treasure hunts, and maybe even a hermit villager!

You're gonna freak when you see da box art

 

[Elisha]

Exactly! Pascal could appear in here from time to time, and they can add new types of bugs, fishes and fossils! Collecting water dinosaurs bones, finding a Lantern Fish, or even new bugs.. Sorry don't know any names, not a bug person XD

Edit: Actually i've already seen the box art, convinced myself thats the island with a hut on it, it's a orange cave, with straw on the top....?

Either way, I love how they're branching out exploration in this game! With all its caves and islands, I'm going to be exploring my village for hours.
Possible fish could be nautilus, or amonites. I could even see us finding a real life dinosaur. (my imagination is going a bit wild, but I like the idea of so many possibilities.)

Yess, completley agree! Glad they're going full out on this game, won't stop playing it! A real dinosaur is a bit strange, although there could be a lizard referenced too one like previous games references XD

I guess dinosaur isn't the right word, I guess I was thinking of a Loch Ness monster type of thing. Maybe he only shows up sometimes and if you can find him, he could give you a silver fishing rod or something.

LOL! That would be too funny, couldn't really see it in AC though ;o I'd love to see more from UFO's too

 

[Juicebox]

I would like more UFO's as well. (even though I can never hit the dang thing). But yeah, the cave itself and what's in it is one of the biggest curiosities I have about the game.

Same, it's why I made this thread! Looking forward to many adventures!

I wouldn't refer to the concept map for very much so I don't believe it.
May I point out there is a steam engine train on the tracks when in the video it was a tram.

Yeah, I suppose so. But even if it isn't exactly a cave, I think the concept art can still be very telling.

It is a cave in the map, but I wouldn't believe it actually makes it into the game, the map is just a drawing for ideas.

I don't think I phrased my statement correctly. I guess I should have said, even if a tangible cave isn't in the game, I think it could reflect certain concepts. The cave could have easily been scrapped, but I could see some of the concepts from the cave being carried over into the gameplay.

I agree.

Sockhead, on the boxart, it looks like that's an island house. I could be wrong though!

 

[cutepixie88]

I'm really curious about how the town map is going to look like. I would really love it if they make it just like the drawing, especially with the cave! And I agree, I hope they really branch out with the exploration of the game! New fossils, fish, and all that stuff that you can find only in certain areas would be nice!

The town map looking like the concept map? no, just no.

Yeah.

That's the island from GC (most likely)
