Hello townspeople, I'm GoblinZz!
Loafing Town launches on November 7th at 2:00 PM (UTC+8)!
Before release, let me answer some of your most common questions.
1. Version Information
Q: What's the difference between the full version and the demo?
A: The full version contains over 5x the content of the demo, including nearly double the number of heroes, 30+ new monsters, 30+ decorations, and 300 Chaos stages. We've also added many new gameplay features, such as four types of random events and crystal egg protection. There's tons to collect and explore—you can play for a very long time!
Q: Will the demo be shut down?
A: Yes, the demo will close when the full version launches. Only the full version will be available to play afterward.
Q: What is the Support the Developer Pack?
A: If you'd like to fuel GoblinZz's game development passion, this pack is the perfect choice! It includes an Ancient Altar skin that you can swap in the settings.
2. Save File Transfer
Q: Will the full version carry over my demo save file?
A: We've looked into this carefully, but because the full version has changed so much—from core systems to content and balance—transferring old saves would lead to all sorts of issues. We totally get it if you've sunk 200 or even 300 hours into the demo; it's tough to say goodbye. But rest assured: the full version will open up a whole new world for you to enjoy!
3. Common Gameplay Questions
Q: Why isn't the game transparent? The background is black instead.
A: This is a very common issue with desktop idle games. Different situations require different solutions, all of which are detailed in the pinned community post:

Q: How could I switch to floating Window Mode?
A: Please press F3 or check Window Mode in the settings to switch to a small window that won't take up your taskbar. To adjust its position, press F2 to activate the movement handle—you can then drag it anywhere on your screen.
Q: Can I move the main menu? It's blocking important info on my screen.
A: Absolutely, the main menu is super flexible—it can move and even tuck away! Just click that snazzy purple ribbon left of the currency bar to hide the buttons. Want to reposition? Grab and drag the ribbon up or down for the perfect spot.
Q: How do I recruit new heroes?
A: There are two main ways to beef up your hero squad:
Click the Altar and select the third button in the pop-up menu to recruit heroes. However, this only gives you the 4 basic hero types.
Once the Altar reaches level 2, the Sacrifice Ritual UNLOCKED! Drag two heroes into the altar to synthesize them—a new hero will be born based on their combined genes! This method greatly boosts your town's combat power. In this world, sacrifice is definitely not a bad thing~
Q: How do I earn gold coins?
A: Heroes automatically fight monsters to defend your town, earning experience and gold. When their pockets are full, they'll return home to store it. You can then collect taxes from their houses! There are other ways to earn gold too—explore and discover them yourself!
Q: How do I earn Glory Coins (Red Coins)?
A: Glory Coins are a vital resource (used to expand hero population and level caps).
There are two ways to obtain them:
When your Chaos meter fills up (by defeating small monsters), you can summon Dark Lord. Defeat Dark Lord and Glory Coins will drop in front of the Altar.
See that sneaky little guy lurking around your town? Knock him out, try picking him up and shaking him—plenty of Glory might just fall out of his pockets!
