After playing a bit I got to hell. Jester is the only way I did well imo. And starting luck seemed to really played a big deal on how well you do. If you die the first battle might as well restart. The later effects are cool but shop randomness really hurts any choice you have in a run when you don't have money and all you get are pricey items. Also I still don't know what the armor stat and foot stat do.  

Thoughts as I was playing:
* At the start I was playing on a laptop and my brightness wasn't full so I really couldn't see the slots to drag things to.
* Squirrel died last battle but is back at the shop at half health and my other units are at full health?  (after playing I get it. Full health units just didn't get attacked)
* Ah the demon spawn thing has a 50% chance to spawn a enemy. Now I understand what I misread.
* Blue text on the blue thing is a bit confusing didn't know it was a number 1 for a while. 
* Beehive isn't working? not seeing it spawn bees (after playing I get it I now, I didn't understand at that time)
* attempts 2 got my ass handed to me by other fishermen
* oh, top thing is a preview of what is going on and the next things. 
* oh, dont rob the shop keeper. Though it was a free item option oops
* oh, pick pocket was the option I wanted
* I am stuck on a loading thing and it replays my last battle. restarted run
* oh shit I tried to swap to people and if combined them together.  Hopefully this is a good thing
* Jester and poison is nice maybe OP

Got up to day 5/6, quit. 

I think it's my first autobattler of people in a row melee/ranged, so it took me a while to understand what's what. would be nice to be able to pin stats so you could inspect them. right click your monster, pin stats, check melee symbol, check ranged, check (attack timer symbol?). it felt like I was cobbling together a team from pretty weak mons, not much strategy and buildcraft. evolving is cool, don't know if it changed anything substantial for my rogue->ninja. after a night shop I had an encounter with guest red dragon and I auto won, the dragon wasn't there.
