Character idea: A guy who bought an iced coffee and the barista put too much milk in it. The guy carries it because he doesn’t want to throw it out and waste money. Everyone he talks to comments on it.
“Are you drinking a cup of iced milk?”
And he gets so mad trying to defend it over and over.

My dog just burst into my bedroom with his frisbee in his mouth. It’s 11 pm. I told him to go lay down and he got the zoomies for 5 minutes and fell down the stairs.

Coyote Time (letting the player jump a bit after they leave the ground) is huge for gamefeel.
Combine with Jump Buffer (executing a jump once they land if they pressed it a bit early) to maximize.
Bonus: spawn the jump particle at the last grounded position to hide the coyote time :)

The plastics in my balls aren’t micro at all. They are huge actually. I got full sized plastics in there to be honest with you. Perfectly normal sized plastics. Not micro at all. Maybe a bit bigger than average if I’m being real.
