Let the Dreams Begin!

Yesterday, Gulliver sent me my latest reward for helping him out. It was a sombrero. That’s better than the pigtail he sent me last time, but I’m just getting disappointed that so many of his items are hats or accessories instead of furniture. In the older games, he gave out nothing but exclusive furniture.

Jeff wears a sombrero from Gulliver in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

Today, I saw a bug on a tree that looked different. So I got my net out and caught my first cicada shell!

I found a cicada shell! I'm glad the little guy came out of it!
Ignore that green thing in front of me. I grew a pear.

I went diving to find a scallop, and Pascal had these words of wisdom about flowers. This is one of his better sayings in New Horizons, in my opinion.

Pascal: Flowers are just gizmos that turn dirt and sunlight into pretty colors.

But unfortunately, he only gave me another pearl for the scallop.

Nintendo announced that the latest summer update will be released July 30th, which is tomorrow. (But it’s actually available early…as in right now!) Watch this if you haven’t seen it yet:

Dreaming is returning! Even though Luna doesn’t have her own building (the Dream Suite) this time, we’ll still be able to upload our islands and visit dream versions of other towns, like we could in New Leaf. I’ve placed a frog costume in my town, so that dreamers can dress as frogs while hopping across the frog race course.

I downloaded the update tonight, which is version 1.4.0. I had two new letters my mailbox: The first one was from Nintendo, thanking me for downloading the update. A fireworks-show wall was attached. This is what it looks like:

The fireworks-show wall in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

The other letter was from Luna, telling me about the dreaming. All we have to do is lie in a bed to start the process. She attached Luna’s bed to the letter, so you’ll be all set even if you didn’t have a bed already.

One word of warning though: The game warns that the information in your town…including bulletin board posts…will be shared with visitors. Bulletin board posts were not shared in New Leaf, so it may be something to keep in mind if you (or a family member) posts anything personal that you don’t want the world to see.

This data includes your name, your passport info, the look of your entire island, rooms in homes, your custom designs, any bulletin-board posts, and more.

Another great feature is that the photo app now allows you to turn off the HUD (heads-up display) guide when taking photos and videos! No glitch required! Finally! Just press the R stick to turn it on or off. πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚

After Nintendo’s maintenance period ended, I uploaded my dream! My dream address is 6717-1633-3682. Check it out!

Luna: Your dream of Forest is filed under the Dream Address DA-6717-1633-3682.

Louie asked me to make a delivery to Hornsby, so I agreed to help out. The item was a rugby shirt, which Hornsby wasn’t sure about at first. But once he tried it on, he seemed to like it. For helping out, he gave me a tube top…the same item he gave me on Sunday!

Enjoy the update, and I hope you enjoy your dream visits to Forest! Forest looks better in the daylight, so I’ll update it again soon with a daytime version. See you next time!

  1. Hi Jeff. It’s Annie from New Leafs’s Joy. My DA- 0700-5178-8683, if you want to visit. It’s called Liberty. Very simple, but kinda cute. Few alt rooms not done. I haven’t time traveled. Gonna visit yours tonight.

  2. Maaan, Forest is such an amazing place! It’s so different actually being there than seeing pictures and video about it!

    I’m kinda disappointed that random dream visits aren’t a thing, I wish I could just decide that I wanna visit someone randomly just to see what strangers are up to and maybe even pick up some ideas.

  3. Can you please visit my dream town once I get my dream address? I think you would really like my island and I would love to see you visit it, and maybe put in a video

  4. Btw the update added back the king tut mask as a diy so I’m looking forward to seeing you trip and fall in forest

  5. Also since The random Dreaming was removed perhaps us in the comment section could provide our dream address if you want to visit some island or smn

    1. Yes, feel free to share your dream addresses, and maybe check out the islands of other commenters as well! I can’t promise to visit every dream posted, but I’ll see what I can do. It’ll help if you maybe share a couple of the highlights of your town with your address; what we should look out for!

  6. Hey Jeff I loved visiting forest this morning it would be cool if we could visit it in the day time also maybe update it today if you want to obviously.

  7. I ended up visiting the dream of Forest, and it was really nice to be able to visit an island without gathering the exclusive permission of someone to do so. Some of my favorite highlights of the visit was Hornsby wondering why he didn’t recognize me as a sandwich while he was dreaming, and Lopez revealing that his ultimate secret is that he likes eating anchovies.

  8. I visited your town and it looks amazing!! By far one of the most fun towns I’ve ever visited and I love the villagers!

  9. Hey Jeff! I can’t wait to check you Dream Town our! I won’t till morning though as my Switch wasn’t letting me online. Here I have some questions for you.-
    1. Who would you like to move out next
    2. Will you do viewers island tours?
    3. What would you like in the next update.
    Have a great day!

    1. Oh And 1 more thing will you do a my island page like the my town page that you did for new leaf?

    2. Hi!
      1. Probably Rizzo or maybe Lopez.
      2. I will do tours of some of my favorite dream towns.
      3. I’m not sure yet. I was just focused on getting dreams, so I’d have to think about what I’d like to see next.
      4. I will probably make a town page, yes. I’ve actually started one, but I had some technical issues with it. One column kept collapsing, and I’ll need to figure that out.

    1. Thanks for sharing! I didn’t realize I would need to provide ladders; I didn’t know Lloid wasn’t around to provide tools this time. I’ll have to make an extra one for dreamers. I will definitely try to upload the dream in the daytime soon (hopefully tomorrow). I hope you enjoyed your visit! πŸ™‚
