I leveled my island and started this layout about a month ago but for the past week or so i have been clueless on what my neighborhood layout should be so please give me some ideas on what shape it should be and where you think it would look best
What if you did some kind of archipelago design with your island? It may not look super great with the beach running all around the island, but you might be able to do something cool with having a large number of rivers with bridges and the "stepping stones" to get around the island. I think that would look super cool with the octopus lake you've got.
