Not sure I really understood how to stick to a budget though, can't figure out the last level. :)"},{"author_name":"Will Edwards","author_uid":"10313","time":"Aug 26, 2014 @ 6:58pm","epoch":1409079180,"text":"A very strong puzzle with the charm and playability of 2048 perhaps!

It's missing a bit of challenge currently, but if you had more time for level design, I think it could become very interesting. The budget thing was a good idea to prevent you from abusing the 10+ rule."},{"author_name":"lkr","author_uid":"42013","time":"Aug 26, 2014 @ 8:25pm","epoch":1409084400,"text":"Interesting matching mechanic.
