There's also probably a better way to indicate the pickup area than a red rectangle.\r<br\/>\r<br\/>Keep working at it :)"},{"author_name":"R3ason","author_uid":"6105","time":"Apr 26, 2012 @ 6:46am","epoch":1335422460,"text":"Interesting concept! I'd definitely recommend putting a counter on the diary page so you can see how much money you have (and also denote which diary entries have been purchased?).  Other than that, great effort on a first game! Look forward to what you make in the future; thanks!"},{"author_name":"mikelovesrobots3","author_uid":"5908","time":"Apr 28, 2012 @ 5:02am","epoch":1335589020,"text":"Weird and interesting.

It does get a bit repetitive after a few worlds tho. It would be nice to have something more to control then just the capture button.
