Stuffing Overfill/Stuffing Snatching

[devout cipher]

When filling up your stuffing, you would fill to 5000, as you typically do. However, it will pause for a second and let you leave, unless you stay and over fill to either 5500 or 6000 (idk which would be better for balancing). When you exede 5000 stuffing, your body looks overfilled, stuffing leaks out your zipper, and the teeth of you zipper do not lock together properly. You look more and more overfilled the more you are over the limit. It could even possibly slow your movement or limit what gadgets you could use. When you are overfilled, if you are hit with an item that deals knock back you drop a certain amount of stuffing (100-200).

This way, if you are building something, you could hold more stuffing to continue building longer. However, people could steal your stuffing if you are not careful, possibly creating vulture-like players who steal stuffing. Overfilling on stuffing could even work as a heath system in mini games, thus that when you lose all of your excess stuffing you lose the mini game. I feel this would be balanced because you do not have to overfill, meaning that you are not going to be attacked by people looking for stuffing. However if you do fill up, you risk people snatching all of your stuffing.

Love this!!

[devout cipher]

Thank you so much! If feel it is pretty balanced, however it doesn’t exactly fit in with the game very well.

[pulsar flint]

I think it fits perfectly! The silly mechanic of overfilling seems like something a yeep would totally try.

And smacking the stuffing out of someone is the most hilarious thing I can think of.

[devout cipher]

Thx! Yeah do you think overfilling to 5500 or 6000 seems more balanced?

[devout cipher]

Thanks Kade!

With how much stuffing gadgets and pillows use, I might even say 7000 is reasonable.

[devout cipher]

Yeah that’s what I thought but it does seem a little unbalanced. Should it limit movement or gadget use or not? I’m leaning towards no but it seems like a possibility, maybe if you are at a very max level it would limit usage idk

[eager breach]

no

it should be a limited use thingie, every second you lose 50 stuffing

actually 25

[devout cipher]

Yeah when I wrote it I really was trying to be low on estimates idk

[dire brook]

Someone in fanart predicted this…

…

[devout cipher]

@eager breach That’s a great idea! Maybe you can fill to 6500, but every second you lose fifty cotton until you get down to 6000 in which the only way to lose cotton is if you get smacked by someone. When you lose cotton, you could possibly even drop pillows or something

[eager breach]

i should not say that

[devout cipher]

lol I’ve not seen that that’s pretty good

[dire brook]

Why does bro look like he would sound like my ps4😭

[eager breach]

it goes to 6000 and you lose 50 cotton per second

[devout cipher]

Idk. I feel you could overfill even over 6000 but over that point you exponentially lose more and more cotton until you get back down to 6000

[eager breach]

6000 cotton would be a little overpowered to have

just waiting a few seconds to get 1000 more cotton without any type of side effects would be op

[dire brook]

It would probably leak

[devout cipher]

Yoooooo!

[eager breach]

maybe make the wait time until the cotton spills a bit longer like 2 seconds but other than that theres no way to make it more balanced i think

[devout cipher]

People could snatch it. Besides 1000 cotton isn’t a ton in the scheme of things

[dire brook]

The cotton you janky wanky

[eager breach]

people are most likely not gonna Snatch it

and 1000 could be a lot whenrvet you need it more

[devout cipher]

True. Maybe you can’t use fireworks while overincumberd.

[eager breach]

yeah

[devout cipher]

Ima make some sketches for this brb. Thank for you feedback @eager breach and all you others

[devout cipher]

Damn you got some skill

[dire brook]

He ready to steal some cotton

[dire brook]

Just draw caseoh @devout cipher

[restive flax]

Blud this looks great

[devout cipher]

Thank you!

I was working on the artwork mock-ups for it when I encountered the issue of the player model changing. If you were wearing cosmetics, how would the player model adapt around the cosmetic without changing the cosmetic’s model?

@pulsar flint What do you think? Idk you had some good insights

[ruby root]

i think this should be infinite amount and have it run out over time

although getting stuffing while overflowing would have to be prty fast so it doesnt run.out

[devout cipher]

Maybe that could be too op idk

[restive flax]

Make it so every cosmetic has a sprite where they are it ripped in the middle

[devout cipher]

I was thinking about how cosmetics warp to player animations, such a moving. Maybe the vertexes of you cosmetics could bulge open a lil bit.

[restive flax]

If they hired some 3d animators they could easily do that
