It's a shame since I imagine lots of players will see CURSED as some bonus and judge it solely on normal mode's very simplistic implementation of the 10 sec gimmick, hell I almost did that

It's a tough call, yeah. Ratings don't matter too much to me though, my partner and I have been wanting to make a game together for years and this jam happened to be at the right time when neither of us were too-deep in our own projects, so we finally did it. :)
We are, however, making a list of improvements for after the jam's rating period, to improve the game; with basically everything we should've done had we more time. Among these, I think I may rename 'normal' mode to 'novice' because, yeah, it basically is. ;)
