[@kwhitney5035]

I put this on for my cat to watch when I have to leave her home alone, she loves to watch the characters run around the screen ❤

[@rosebricksis]

Aw thats adorable

[@strawberrypng]

putting this on while crocheting! working on a picnic + fruit tote bag design for my shop!

[@JillianBuker]

that sounds so cute!

[@sparksby]

Omg that sounds amazing! I’ve always wanted to try crochet 🤭😍

[@Gem0420]

I'm crocheting as well 💜💜💜

[@nta4301]

I‘m also crocheting hahha currnetly working on a Nessie by moontyasha ❤

[@Roseann-lv6zr]

How did u get the storefront things so tall??????

[@Frog_Beans]

Putting this on in the middle of the night with a high fever and unable to sleep. Your videos are now fever dreams to me, but I still love your channel ♡✨

[@iver777]

the sugarcane farm overlooking the barn is breathtaking. i’m so excited to tour the DA

[@sparksby]

If everything goes well it’ll be up next week 🤭🥹

[@katie_bud93]

I prefer the videos with your voice. It helps my anxiety to hear you talking through your process when I'm home alone or when I'm unable to quiet my thoughts when I'm trying to sleep.

[@MaxLucasPiano]

Yeah!

[@latinamommy258]

Yes!

[@coco-banana-bread7684]

Agreed!

[@Mari-desu]

To be honest with you I was watching a scary video out of curiosity but got scared and now I'm watching your video to try and relax so I can fall asleep ❤

[@iamc4mii]

I was just looking for another long play of your to watch after I finished the other two! I'm so glad you're still making more-- I really enjoy them. I hope you continue to do them :) I love watching them while I play animal crossing. They're so encouraging for decorating, and it's nice to see someone else's thought process when they're decorating as well! It makes me feel validated for switching things around so much when I see other people do it HAHA it's so easy to get caught up in the "perfection" of speed-builds, because it feels like it takes no effort for them to pump out an idea, but in reality it takes a lot of time and dedication. It's really nice to see that part of the building process:)

[@sparksby]

Absolutely agree! Sometimes it’s awesome to see the faster progress just for quick inspo, but it does really change our perception of how long this game takes!! 🥺

[@anneelzinga6536]

I love how much Rudy loves the mushroom forest. I know its annoying to have villagers there while decorating, but its so cute that he was there almost every day you time traveled to ❤

[@coco-banana-bread7684]

Putting this on while having a bad mental health day. Its so relaxing! I say it often but your eye for detail is amazing, my favorite little thing is when you put the mushroom custom designs under the mush-log. It looks like the mushrooms are spreading from the log! Looking forward to the next part!

[@katil7226]

Your videos help me calm down when having a panic attack and usually watch them before going to bed and I like falling asleep to them! So relaxing!

[@sparksby]

❤❤❤

[@lorilie9997]

She does have a very relaxing voice😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@lorilie9997]

And sparksby builds some kick butt islands 🏝 i have been watching you from the beginning sweetheart 😘. I love the mushroom Forrest 🍄 idea, I would love to see a island made to look like fairies live there with all things mystical and magical.

[@lorilie9997]

With these items: leprechaun, mushrooms 🍄, butterflies, all the star fragments, all the magical items, all codes pertaining to the theme, ect ect

[@raviolifabbrioli3321]

you could not have uploaded this at a more perfect time, i was just watching your calathea nooks longplay

[@iamc4mii]

same here! I was hoping she'd post another since I already finished the other ones :,)

[@sparksby]

🤎🤎🥹

[@Ecrusha]

Having this on, while getting rid of the annoying flower spread, is a good motivation.

[@alliemorris249]

These videos are so great to have in the background while I'm studying and working on assignments!! Love taking a little 30 second mind break to see what you've done in the meantime of me working lol!

[@Sami-je6xv]

I love these longplay videos, very relaxing after a long day at work/crazy day at home. Also I'm so glad that you're still playing Animal Crossing and STILL creating beautiful islands. I adore all your islands, but it I were to pick one, it's (was) Hokkaido when I thought that things could not get any better than that island! And then you go and create this one! It's breathtakingly beautiful!! Thank you for all your content. ♥

[@gina1837]

I watch this longplay while studying for my last exam of this semester. I absolutely love this kind of calm and long videos for that

[@_evxn]

watching this while flattening my island! (been working on it since like december 😭) and afterwards i plan on cleaning my room since im moving next week!

[@cosygracegames]

Watching this at nighttime is chefs kiss ✨ so peaceful and lovely to play along! Very cozy, and I legitimately sad this islands coming to a close, it’s so beautiful and I’ll miss it so! Lovely long play!

[@benjiAgee]

You're voice is so smoothing, it's great to sleep to! I also just found you so ill probably be watching a ton more of your vids! Keep up the good work

[@gaiaouranos]

I’m loving the long play and the autumnal vibes on this island, your patience for everything astounds me! 😅 I’ve put this on while playing and trying my own rock garden (it took 1 hour 😩) and starting me off cooking some yummy fish stew. I think I will finish the stew with another long play, they’re so relaxing 💕

[@Kiwi_471]

watching this while designing my forest theme island😍

[@TessBre]

watching this while starting my hair care routine 😊 its so nice

[@brookegoins8850]

I’m watching this while working but would rather be watching while working on my island! Haha

[@chrishampton795]

I’ve been watching this video over and over while I try to design my own mushroom forest area.

[@spencerafreeman]

Love when you do long videos & looooove your long plays! Keep ‘em coming! ✨

[@rosebricksis]

Im speedrunning to 3 stars on my new island right now! Love watching your vids while crocheting/playing acnh!

[@frogcellent]

[@ADumbStick]

Terraforming on my island! I really love how you did your cliffs and it’s very inspiring! Finally feel motivated to move all my trees

[@WTayla]

I've currently hit a wall with my forest core island so this was brilliant for inspiration 😊 beautiful as always, so impressed that you made it look so full whilst using the smaller trees. I'm always scared to stunt them too small but you made it work! 🎉

[@woodsy.crossing]

I really love this type of videos!! 😍 During this longplay i'm collecting itmes from treasure island for my new island 🤎

[@sparksby]

Omg exciting! 😍

[@brittanybarker3115]

Pleaseeeeeee keep making these. I put on your longplays to fall alseep now. (The commentary keeps my anxious brain busier, then no commentary)

[@sparksby]

Definitely will! 😌❤

[@laurenOP]

I'm actually in the gym 😂 working out with this in the background, it's great!

[@direwolf_2025]

I love this format. I have 2 islands I work on while this is running. Thank you!

[@abigailturner1776]

currently flattening my Americana themed island to make an Alaska themed island. I felt so inspired on my Alaska cruise last year that I decided to flatten my OG island to start anew.

[@cartersprettybf]

i'm working on my boyfriend's coraline sweater and drinking chamomile tea while watching this!

[@tunnelsunshine]

Thank you SO much for having this here today. Today is one of the worst days of my life (pet related) and I came here hoping for a new long play (bc I adore these) hoping to help my brain, and alas, there is one. 🖤

[@kcdprcd]

i love these videos! i put on your other longplay video while i work and it helps me stay on task. it also satisfies my acnh fix lol

[@livonimpulse]

I’m pushing through my work to do list with this on in the background ❤

[@eitacffuc]

I just came across your videos! I started playing ACNH about a year ago, but got the game when it first came out. I've also never played an AC game before until this game. Your videos are amazing! I'm finding myself playing and having your video in the background :)

[@prezrez5331]

I'm working on some art homework, so this is wonderful to listen to and keep me company!

[@tamamum1]

Loved watching this as I worked on a crochet blanket 🙂

[@Moki_2126]

Ah I'm sooo excited for these longer videos 😊❤

[@crispy.seaweed]

omg PLEASE more long-plays they're keeping me going rn

[@snolivs]

Hihi, I never comment on KZbin videos but I just wanted to thank you for these long plays. I've had a really difficult time recently, a lot of anxiety and sleep disturbances, and your videos have really been helping me cope with the feelings and have been one of the only things to relax me.

[@sparksby]

Thank you so much for your comment, I’m so glad my little videos have helped you! Hang in there, you got this 🥺 Oh and have lots of fun streaming! 🤎

[@soupslug]

love these longplay videos, unfortunately i rarely have the patience to watch the whole video but I have to catch up on some uni work today and i'm hoping this gets me through it ! currently working on a narrative project and i have to do loads of storyboarding/sketching (i study illustration)

[@kagayama2679]

im working on rebuilding all of the basic sims homes and looks :3 also this is my first video of yours ive watched and you have such a pleasant voice

[@alexisn.k.789]

I have watched so many animal crossing creators and your videos are by far my favorite! I’m a probation officer so I put on your longplays while doing a lot of office work during the day 🫶🏼

[@kaylamariee16]

putting this on while eating lunch and relaxing! will most likely end up building on my island while I watch as well!

[@moonsharky]

working on my own island as i watch this. it's really fun!

[@MyWeirdNormal1]

These videos are the perfect thing to alleviate my need for noise while I’m reading. Got to 160 pages and I’m only halfway through the video

[@shiannedominguez]

Currently making an early dinner and then we are going to clean! Love this time together!

[@latinamommy258]

[@anamericantrilogy]

I know your question was about what we were working on but I’m using this to fall asleep to haha 😅

[@quenepacrossing4675]

Putting this one while i work on my own island! Finally got to the code shopping portion of the game, im doing citycore so im doing some intense road planning.

[@sparksby]

Oh I love code shopping! Have fun and good luck with the roads! 🤎

[@chrishampton795]

Have you considered keeping ‘chocolate’ eggs (sky, wood, water etc) in your pocket? Takes up one slot for stack of 30 and can eat one as needed… and not fattening lol

[@DerekRick]

I watch this while I moved my rocks

[@princessbubblegum.x]

I’m currently crocheting a One Piece hat while watching this 🩷🩷

[@Eviescrossing]

Im working on my fall cottage core islnad!

[@valleyof.daisies]

I’m catching up on some house chores, once I’m done I’ll reward myself with animal crossing😅

[@sparksby]

You got this! 👏🏻

[@Korikocrossing2250]

I just bought a 3rd Switch for another island.😅 I want this one to be a minimalist/spring/forestcore I guess. Just want to do a simple, pretty and casual island. Sick of all the lag on my other islands. My other ones are tropicore and a European towncore.💖

[@delaniesmith5469]

I am working on building out some cliffs on my island!

[@christopherm4308]

With tree stunting... ooooooo oxoxoxo ooooooo oxoxoxo ooooooo oxoxoxo ooooooo The x is the tree, the x in the middle won't grow because it needs breathing room basically on one side. ooooooo oxoxoxo ooooooo oxoxoxo ooooooo oxoooxo With the tree removed on the south side, or either north, east or west (south in diagram) the middle tree will grow. With 5 trees encompassing the other tree with no breath room (2 spaces beside it) it won't grow. Hopefully that makes sense lol.

[@delaniesmith5469]

at 33:50 thats my brain to all my thoughts... no no just remove, no need those

[@skipskylark9525]

33:10 an oval is the word you were looking for!

[@christopherm4308]

Wondering if the rock spawned by the tree because you time traveled with the game open? Might've spawned near a sprout and the tree still grew because game was open.

[@HollyTheYellowSceneRabbit]

I woke up to this

[@Elenriel_]

3:00 I‘m currently doing the Paradise Planning so I can decorate and re-do my villagers homes! Ps.: Ich habe dich erst entdeckt und finde dich wirklich toll. Darf ich fragen wie du es geschafft hast, dass dein Englisch so gut ist? Keep being awesome Malin! ✨🌱

[@sparksby]

Thank you! 🥹 Ich bin in meinen Teenager-Jahren in die absolute Serien-Sucht gekommen (vor allem The Vampire Diaries und Once Upon A Time) und hab da alles auf Englisch geschaut, ich glaube das hat mir sehr geholfen 🤔🤎
