Anyway, I’m just glad I got something playable

For example:
creatures that run around and are comically knocked flying by explosions. (they don’t hurt you, they’re just cute) (or other non-destructable props that can be knocked flying)
Various objects to ‘collect’ underground, like gems
World variety to explore (natural caves, trees, clouds)
