I need pond shape ideas!!!!!

[emapple]

i'm new so I don't know that this is the right forum for this BUT I am wondering if anyone can help me with a creative pond idea for my map??

I am doing an ocean themed island that's going to be very colorful and I really want a fun map to match!!! thank you :3

Well I had a heart shaped pond a couple years ago that looked like this.

And I have these inspo pics I saved from Google images I think. Could have also been Pinterest idk. I'm not sure what kind of pond theme you're looking for but if you have a shape in mind you could check if someone has made a version already.

hi! this is the right forum to ask that!

first off, there are a ton of different maps for this game; and unfortunately the game doesnt give you the option to pick the one that you want. I spent ages shutting my game down and resetting it in order to get my preferred map. so if layout also matters? you've got to do that. if there's another way to do it please let me know bell tree folks!

secondly; you can terraform your island to match whatever you choose it to be, even if you've gotten a map that you dont like HOWEVER! the river entrances, docks and airport locations cannot be changed.

if I were going for an ocean themed island, and wanted a pond that matched that theme? maybe a fish shaped one would be small enough? or maybe a shark?

good luck! I would love to see your island when youre done!

I made a moon shaped pond in my island based off these photos! Either the water is moon shaped or the land around the water. Kinda neat ideas!

maybe this would be too complex but a dolphin? Love the fish idea! Besides dolphin or fish, here’s some others:
- star
- moon
- water droplet / raindrop
- frog
- mermaid
- seashell (any type of seashell)
- plain old circle could look like a bubble
- umbrella
- octopus
- additionally but very similar, squid
- anchor (pirates! Arr!)
- wave (tsunami) (not sure how you’d make that lol)
- crab
- jellyfish
- baby whale (a big whale may be too complicated lol)

Hope this gives some fresh ideas! ^ - ^
