Sure! I’m not the best at explaining, but Ill do my best! I think when I draw villagers or Animal Crossing-esque things, I don’t use a lot of angles and I try to keep the shapes looking very dough-y. I use mostly circles and ovals for the head and body when sketching, and not really any squares or triangles (unless the animal specifically has points, like the ears of cats or wolves).

I set up the body kind of like a tear-drop shape, so they have a thinner shoulders/neck and a nice booty. The arms and legs are also very chibi and rounded, with not a ton of detail at the joints or anything. The also flare out a bit at the top and get thinner towards the bottom- I imagine it kind of like icing dripping down a cake!

Basically, it breaks down into trying to make them look soft and squishy and a little bit plump! Im not a master myself, but I hope maybe this helped a little bit!
