Which version did you played? The browser demo?
Some people love the controls of the game, some hate it. I can't really help, apparently it's mostly a personal thing :/ Some even finished the 20 levels in 25 minutes, and some never pasted the first level.
At least you gave it a try until the level 5. But maybe you should just have a break and go back to it later. Specially since this level is just about crawling on the surface, the lasers are just here to fright people X)
Thank you for your feedback that's very kind that you took the time to write all of it!
