New Horizons, the latest entry in Nintendo’s long-running Animal Crossing series, has taken the world by storm. It’s a game where you settle on an abandoned island, inviting anthropomorphic animals to move in while customizing the environment to your heart’s content. It’s a lot of fun.
One aspect of the game involves creating and scanning design patterns, which can then be used as clothing, wallpapers, flooring, canvas paintings, or even flags. There’s already a vibrant community of people sharing designs, and we thought we’d join in on the fun too.
We’ve created a handful of Android-themed patterns that you can scan into New Horizons. If you have no idea how to copy the below designs to your own game, our friends at iMore have a great guide here.
Some of these patterns also work in the previous game, Animal Crossing: New Leaf, but that title doesn’t seem to handle transparency as well as New Horizons.
First up are some patterns directly related to Android and popular apps. We’ve got the classic Bugdroid mascot, as well as the icons for Chrome and Google Play. We also made patterns for Google Reader and Google Talk, because they deserve to be remembered (can we get some Fs in the chat?).
If you want to rep your favorite phone maker on your island, we’ve got logos for Google, LG, Motorola, and OnePlus — most other companies have large logos that don’t scale down well to 32×32. We’ve also thrown in the emblem for Google’s former Nexus phones.
Finally, for fans of our site, you might like our snazzy logo transformed into an Animal Crossing pattern. We also converted our Twitch emote of editor Ryne Hager laughing his butt off into a design.
We made these patterns using ACPatterns.com, so if you want to make your own designs based on images, it’s definitely worth checking out.

Leaving her elderly father on a basement floor for two days in a soiled adult diaper won’t mean jail for a Calgary woman.
Justice Indra Maharaj accepted a joint Crown and defence submission on Wednesday for a two-year-less-a-day conditional sentence order for Tara Picard to be followed by 12 months of probation.
Prosecutor Donna Spaner and defence counsel Shaun Leochko proposed a community-based term which will include eight months of 24-hour house arrest followed by a nightly curfew for the second eight months.
Maharaj also agreed with the lawyers to order Picard to commit 300 hours of community service over the length of the three-year sentence.
The Calgary Court of Justice noted that amount of community-service hours was “a lot” to commit to.
But Maharaj said it showed Picard, 52, was truly remorseful for her conduct towards her father, whom Postmedia is not identifying because of the embarrassing nature of the facts of the case.
“What that shows me is Ms. Picard does sincerely recognize what has happened here,” the judge said of her willingness to complete community service.
“What I interpret from that is Ms. Picard’s willingness to give back to the community.”
Picard pleaded guilty in January to charges of assault and failing to provide the necessaries of life to her 77-year-old father.
Court heard caregivers found the elderly Calgary man on the basement floor of his daughter’s southeast home wearing a soiled adult diaper.
At the time, Picard was responsible for her father’s day-to-day care after he was moved to her residence, Spaner, reading from a statement of agreed facts, told court at the time.
“He had a number of medical ailments, including non-insulin dependent diabetes, coronary artery disease, some early onset dementia-like symptoms and chronic alcoholism,” Spaner said.
“(He) had been living independently in a Calgary apartment building. Family members became concerned that he was not caring for himself safely.”
With the help of Alberta Health Services he was moved to a home where Picard resided.
A registered nurse assigned to his care attended the 38 Street S.E. home on Nov. 15, 2021, to drop off food bank supplies for him and was told he was sleeping downstairs.
When the nurse called about an hour and a half later and spoke to the man on the phone he said he was lying on the floor, had fallen and was unable to get up.
When she returned to the home with a co-worker she found the victim lying on his back on the floor.
“(He) said that he had been lying on the floor for two days,” Spaner said.
Leochko said Picard was overwhelmed by the situation she was thrust into.
“It really was more than she could handle,” he said.

The City of Pointe-Claire would like to inform you that the Bob-Birnie arena will be closed for its annual maintenance as of Monday, April 29. The Annex rink will reopen to the public on Monday, May 13, and the arena’s Main rink will be accessible as of Monday, June 3.
Public skating will resume on May 13, and the summer public activities programming will begin on June 3 when both rinks have reopened to the public.
In addition to the annual maintenance of the facility, two renovation projects are also scheduled to start at the same time:
Installation of new sound systems
The City will be replacing its current sound systems in both the Main rink and Annex rink, to offer arena visitors a better overall experience, whether watching from the stands or participating in on-ice activities. This project is expected to be conducted throughout the month of May.
Renovation of locker rooms in the Main Rink
The City will also be renovating the five locker rooms located in the Main rink, to bring up to date the amenities currently available to participants. These renovations are expected to begin in early May and will be completed by mid-August.
