The Creatures

I think that the creatures/monsters we have are cool and look really good but how about placing them on a more sutable spot or giving them more life?
Like having the sheep eat grass and turn the grass platform to grass-dirt platform or just run it into dirt. The grass would of course grow back after a while. And after the sheep have eaten all the grass in the area they would move to a new spot. Also I think the apple trees should hold more than one apple, since on the graphic you see more apples than one. The other creatures have to have a reason for being at the place they are at the moment, like trolls being near the pigs since they need food or deamons not existing but instead appearing through sacrifice of some living creature. The flies needs are in the swamp since that is their breeding place and flies only live for a week or how long it is...

I have lots of more ideas for where creatures need to be, but I want to know what you think

Or possibly turn them into puppets

The flies do spawn in the swamp. If they aren't in the swamp, someone lured them away, or they wandered. Also, they aren't flies, although people like to call them that. They're a swarm of large bugs.

The Trolls do have a reason for why they spawn in the Southern Forest, also. If you go through the boards you'll find that the trolls are the protectors of the forest, with their life force linked to those woods. They are a magical creature of divine creation and only need to eat those that would hurt the forests.

Similarly, the scorpions spawn in the desert, ogres spawn in ogre territory, bandits spawn near bandit camps or on trade routes. Mummies spawn in underground passages under abandoned temples and in catacombs. Skeletons spawn in similar places.

As for demons, I'm unaware of any random spawn of them. If there is one, it's in a very secluded dungeon, no doubt. I have trouble with them with my GM character which makes them nothing short of impossible for an individual player-character. It takes whole teams to take down one demon, let alone a random spawn of them.

I'm sorry I meant the ogres not trolls, but how about the sheep then? They eat the grass.. don't they? There probably much more important things to do, I just thought it would be interesting to see sheep actually eating the grass...
And by the way, the new graphics look really good, especially the trees.
