   Hello Club,   
      
   first of all, big thanks for your feedback. It's very helpful and constructive.   
      
   Repeating frames should be fixed in a matter of day or two. As for screen   
   layout - you're right, but at this stage it would require to recreate all the   
   actions and locations. However, I still have plenty of unfinished locations   
   (basically, everything    
   that is not animated is temporary), so I'll think about changing the layout to   
   'wider' one.   
      
   Fighting is a priority at the moment - the plan is to get your monster to   
   learn new techniques that you will be able to use during the fight. It's   
   definitely not random, however it requires some work / balance. Plus, there   
   are 'auras' that you will    
   discover after the third quest. The reason you could not find another quest is   
   because there is a time limit (about 12 hours, depending on a quest) before   
   you will be able to get a new one. Try looking for characters that will tell   
   you something like 'I    
   don't have any job for you at the moment, come back later'.   
      
   Energy is quite simple - every action you take requires some amount of it, you   
   can regenerate your energy by sleeping or drinking energy elixir (for now).   
   Food is for something else - if your monster is hungry, he or she will be much   
   weaker during the    
   fight. Plus, your monster will change with time (if you feed him to much, he   
   can get fat ;) ).   
      
   I have never played KoL before, looks interesting ;) I'll check it out.   
      
   shx
