This is a game, a platformer with progression. A start and a soon end. If only are coming back to play every new update you aren't a player of the game but only the new stages. If you downloaded the game this wouldn't be an issue since saves are carried over versions but you have no interest in the game as a whole so why would you.
Here Comes Hope is the 4th last stage and you expect it to be easy. If you played the full game rather than rushing through it just the play the new stages you would have learned the skills to beat it. Funny how you mention the difficult part and the say exactly how to beat it, with a bit of patience.
Reflect was an amazing stage and such a creative way to reuse assets. If you want the game to go quickly the play it quickly.
