Given that there were no enemies or obstacles to challenge you, it felt more like a waste of your time as you simply hold down the key and wait.

The diary is a good idea and suggested more interesting animals.\r<br\/>I felt the physics were OK. Darwin discovering species was a good idea. Some moveable enemies and some more challenging levels might be good?"},{"author_name":"pardue","author_uid":"15733","time":"Sep 17, 2012 @ 4:51pm","epoch":1347900360,"text":"Surprisingly fun considering I am going around taking notes... :)"},{"author_name":"nuria","author_uid":"4978","time":"Sep 17, 2012 @ 5:53pm","epoch":1347904080,"text":"I thought the taking notes mechanic was gonna be used somehow, maybe you ran out of time? As it is, it's useless, but I think you had something in mind for it. There's a lot of charm in this game for some reason, music, graphics, etc. Reminded me of the good ol' NES times. :)"},{"author_name":"tompudding","author_uid":"12467","time":"Sep 17, 2012 @ 8:46pm","epoch":1347914460,"text":"I quite liked that there weren't any enemies, and I was just wandering around taking notes.
