Heavy Meteor Shower

When I started the game up tonight, I was surprised to see Isabelle informing me of shooting stars! She doesn’t normally do this, and it almost seemed like a tutorial. She described how to move the R stick to adjust the camera, and then press A to wish on a star. As if I haven’t done this hundreds of times already!

Isabelle: Right now, at this very moment, the sky above Forest is full of shooting stars!

But there apparently was a reason for her announcing this. This wasn’t a regular meteor shower. There were tons of shooting stars, often coming mere seconds apart, one after another. I surely racked up many dozens of wishes tonight.

The plaza was unusually crowded for a non-event night, with five villagers and Label there.

Midge, Agent S, Lopez, Tia, Jeff, Hornsby, and Label crowd the plaza outside of town hall.

As for Label, she wanted to see me in a work outfit. She gave me a doctor’s coat as an example. But I decided to try out the chef’s outfit that I got from Tia about five minutes before. Labelle seemed to like it, and she told me she’d be sending me a tailors ticket in the mail…but she didn’t give me one of her exclusive items. So I guess it wasn’t good enough, at least not without a matching hat.

Moments later, I was quite happy to find Celeste in town!

Jeff wishes on a shooting star as Celeste watches.

She gave me a D.I.Y. recipe for a Libra scale. Right now I care more about getting the space items over the astrological furniture, but I’ll take it.

If you haven’t heard the news, Nintendo unveiled a teaser for the Halloween update coming September 30th. I’ll be sharing my thoughts on it tomorrow, but it got me in more of a Halloween mood. I started thinking about (temporary) changes I could make to my town for Halloween, and I have several ideas already. They won’t be major changes, but they should help get Forest ready for the season. 🎃

Midge gave me a free dolly, so I may even use that as part of my decorations.

I posted New Horizons Moments #3 today. It’s a compilation of my best and funniest one-player clips/moments from the past month. I hope you enjoy it!

The last Bug-Off of the year is coming up tomorrow, so I’ll be back with another entry then! Have a great weekend!
