Yea, I do agree with the difficulty stuff, and I think it's a classic case of developer syndrome where I misjudge the difficulty because I've been getting too used to my own game. Other people have given me feedback about the difficulty easing in, and definitely the bombs feel more harmful than good, and what I've seen people end up doing is just digging straight forward at the edge of the map simply because avoiding enemies altogether seems to be the best choice. I appreciate your thoughts, and thanks much for the feedback!
