How to Make a Cool Lobby/Spawn Area for Your Game

Hello Earthlings! :D

Yes, I have searched before posting, and maybe I have not searched hard enough, but there’s not a guide on this topic. So, I have decided to make a guide on this topic. :D (duh)

If I overlooked (and that is quite possible), feel free to flag this and/or take it down.


Continuing…

But silly, there’s lots of topics that include map customization, ideas, etc.

True, true, but I’m compiling all the ideas into one guide so other people don’t have to go on a scavenger hunt to look for ideas. Don’t worry, I will credit the guides I used/took inspiration from.


Here are some lobby/spawn area ideas :3

- Check this is you are editing! DO NOT CHECK FOR FUN AND REMEMBER TO UNCHECK WHEN YOU ARE DONE

Cozy lobby☕

For this type of lobby, there’s one thing/prop that calls my name: BOOKSHELVES!!!
In my opinion, bookshelves are kind of the building blocks of a cozy area.

The cracked oak terrain also helps for the floor.

  • Plants
  • lanterns
  • Wooden props
  • Any type of greenery (vines, leafs ect.)
  • BOOKSHELVES!!!

Ahem. You can tell I like bookshelves…

Are some of the things you need.

Here’s an idea , and feel free to take inspo from:

I made a lil ladder out of wooden poles too :P
I also like to put the game objective in the lobby/spawn area (optional)

Nature-ish lobby ⛰ 🌲

This type of lobby is personally my fave. Props/terrain include:

  • Grass (top layer)
  • Dirt ( middle layer)
  • Water [for waterfall or pond] ( bottom layer)
  • Trees
  • Flowers
  • nature stuff (you know..?)

If you want the lobby to look like it has layers, then make layers top, middle, and bottom to make it.. uhm… nature-ish?.. uhm ANYWAY!

Here’s an example, and I’ll link a guide on how to do layers.

Mines REALLY plain, so make sure you add on and stuff :D

Magical forest 🪄🪷

This one is my favorite!

Uhm… Silly you said that the nature themed one was your fave…

SHHH… I take that back!!! >:0

Ahem anyway, props/etc. include some of the following:

  • alien plants
  • leafs (optional)
  • text (optional) [for :sparkles:decor :sparkles:]
  • trees

I honestly dunno what I made but uhhhmmm…
Something like this…?


This is my first guide (despite being on the forums for like 7 months…) so I would appreciate feedback.


Hmmmm… what else?

Ah, yes! Credits!

Credits as promised :D

The Power of Layers

Things you can add to your Gimkit Creative Worlds To Spice Them Up

Four Seasons, Four Lobbies: Ideas For Lobbies

The rest I kind of played around with.


So that concludes this guide!
Hope this helped and this is not a dupe; and hope I did not overlook guides like this :D


Now go do something productive.

Thanks for reading this :]

This is a dupe, I’m pretty sure. But it does have pictures, compared to any others, so it should be fine.

Shouldn’t this be in art @Silly_alien?

no
it shouldnt
wait yes it should
a guide is something or someone that instructs or helps someone construct or traverse something and doesnt need to have set steps, but this guide is powered PURELY off imagination and creativity, making it more of an art guide

alright bud its one of the tags :broken_heart:
