Did you know you can upload files to birds using sound?
What is it called when a birb jumps of a ledge without flapping its wings and just free falls for a moment before starting to fly? Sparrows do it and I think it's the funniest shit.
Energy efficiency
Probably just an engine glitch. Delayed spawning of the birb, which means we're seeing the Z buffer when the birb model spawns. Happens all the time, nothing Major - push to Prod.
What goes hup must come puh.

Quake moment
The shadow didn’t render properly
Cute dinosaur
nohup
I immediately heard this in Link's voice.
I can imagine a sparrow hopping back and forth now:
"Hup, hup hup, (wing flap) hyaahh!"
i'm now imagining a flock of birds all making link noises with every flap of their wings, so it's just unintelligible nonsense until they fly close enough and you pay attention the horror dawns upon you
Gubment drone
gimp it good. gimp it real good
the fact that birds are lazy and prefer jumping around if they can, is amazing. pidgeons just boinging up staircases
Like the mythical 8-ship-jump of Minamoto Yoshitsune in the battle of Dan-No-Ura
