The game is hard like that because it was my vision. I thought that making it easy would make it boring too.
I know that the "difficult" of a game is very subjective, so i'll tell you a secret. If you press "F7" you'll enter in godmode so you'll can see all the game has to offer, including the ground cinematic and all the power ups. This info is not in the game's description and this is intended, good luck!
