Hey! Glad you like the concept :)
We really wanted a tutorial but ran out of time. Sorry about the incorrect tax requirement, will look into it!
This is definitely a shortcoming of the game's clarity, but combat quests don't necessarily have to be completed by "fighters". For "make soup", one of the hidden strength traits is "The Elements", which some characters are good at. But as long as one of their weaknesses don't match the quest, you can assign them to it and still complete it successfully, just for less money :) I know, it's quite overwhelming without a clear tutorial, and if we continue to work on the game post-jam we will definitely clear that up!!
Thank you so much for trying the game. It makes us really happy that you think it's one of the best!
