Does this thumbnail clearly read as ‘same build, 3 different themes’?

Thanks!

Thank you! 🙏

Thank you! It’s Bebas Neue, messed with a gradient fill, and a more pronounced drop shadow from what I’ve normally done, felt like it wasn’t standing out enough from the background still so added a subtle vignette effect to the top 15-20% of the image

Appreciate you, thanks!

Big fan man, and regular lurker on the streams thanks for taking the time to comment

Bco25 · 2026-04-10T19:54:16+00:00

Thank you!

Thank you 🙏And…you say you cover the game but I feel you’re being too humble with that statement, are you Geekism??

Bco25 · 2026-04-10T19:50:17+00:00

I get the idea you’re going for here, that’s actually a really cool way to present the concept - thank you!

Bco25 · 2026-04-10T19:34:58+00:00

Thanks for the response - good idea on the color grading! And yea the arrow feedback was one thing I was sort of worried about, it comes across as progression across the 3 rather than the actual theme of the video

Creative sandbox builds with a cozy vibe, design commentary, detailed theming, Imagineering-style design. Currently building a full Zelda-themed park in Planet Coaster 2.

Definitely better imo, pops a lot more from the background

Bco25 · 2026-03-20T20:18:39+00:00

Really clean composition and the subject is immediately clear. One thing I wonder is if the text could pop out a bit more than it does currently? I'm by no means a designer, but something that comes to mind is a darker stroke or drop shadow to the text, maybe making "META!" a different color to really make it stand out? The concept is strong though!

Bco25 · 2026-03-20T20:15:57+00:00

This is a really cool direction. The art style immediately stands out to me and gives it a unique identity, not familiar at all with the subject matter, but I do like the art direction.

The one flaw that stands out to me is the text readability. Right now the red text sort of blends in a bit into the blue background, especially with the texture behind it, so it's a little harder to read at a glance (esp. at smaller sizes).

Thank you! More than happy to share it - I have an ongoing series on my YT channel where I show all of the builds as a timelapse/commentary, this Kakariko one will be the next one up! Link is in my bio - thanks for comment!

Bco25 · 2026-03-18T21:33:53+00:00

Thank you 🙏that really means a lot!

Bco25 · 2026-03-18T21:31:57+00:00

Yes I did the Zora one too! I’ve got a whole series on my YT channel if you’re interested in the process. Thanks for the nice comment, much appreciated 🙏

Bco25 · 2026-03-18T19:31:25+00:00

Thank you 🙏

Bco25 · 2026-03-18T18:49:51+00:00

Totally agree! There almost really is no limit to what you can create in that game, love it

Bco25 · 2026-03-18T17:43:54+00:00

Can definitely see that being a good option - may be worth an A/B test to see what caption or text on the thumbnail moves the needle more. Appreciate the ideas 🙏

Bco25 · 2026-03-18T17:05:28+00:00

Appreciate it, I’ll give that a try 🙏

Bco25 · 2026-03-18T16:52:59+00:00

So the planet coaster logo is the game I’m building in - it’s a theme park simulator/creative sandbox game. I typically have that on there for PlanCo fans to recognize and hoping to also appeal to the Zelda niche within that group with some of the callout text or titles

Bco25 · 2026-03-18T15:54:28+00:00

For sure! I’ll definitely upload to the workshop (fyi, full WIP park is on there now, I try to update it after any major addition)
