Sounds like the starting stats are pretty low.

I like the low stats kind of approach. Similar to Paper Mario. I think the most I could do by the end was 6 damage!

Fish: No sry there isnt a day or night system. The Day Progresses as the game does.

The First prolly 1/4 of the game before you get to "The Spot"  you need to keep your blimp mates / goblin allies alive, and find the ones who fell outta the blimp.

Then Take the Dangerous journey to "The Spot" while still trying to save as many villagers and Goblins as you can.



You Dont Need Big Numbers To Create Balance

Big numbers actually complicate balance

Also, I really cannot wait for this demo
