Hey all,
Just found another misplaced doobie and it got me thinking... I've played a lot of games that despite being beautiful, well designed, and populated with NPCs, they still felt dead or sterile. I think it might've be due to lack of "life". How difficult would it be to make a few rodent, insect, or bird sprites, to randomly move about the world. Would that even make a difference? Do your creatures interact with each other in any way? I'm just letting my mind wonder.
Respectfully

7:30 seconds BUTTERFLIES
11:23 seconds BIRDS SITTING ON GROUND and fly off as Steven gets near them.

6:15 seconds BIRDS FLYING (Not sure if those are supposed to be birds or leaves)

I think more details like this will be added closer to beta. But would love to see more birds flying high in the sky, maybe little rodents like mice running around, or rats in cities (Human cities, us elves don't have rats)
