In normal mode the early game was somewhat tough. but once i got to about mid to late game it really got easy. i dont know if it was luck or not but i got several high damage weapons and some good armor. by the time i got to the games final boss i had over 25k hero health and had heavy lasers doing over 1.5k damage each. i was rushing through every level with 100% and at the final boss it was not even hard didnt even use the amulet. only lost about 2k health and dominated the bosses. hope they up the difficulty in Sky Quest 2. still 5/5 absolutely amazing game. very fun. good job berzerkstudio.
Once you get to your first veteran level the game gets way too easy. the challenge of not dying nearly ceases and getting the next veteran level takes like 10 minutes. IMO the game is boring after you get veteran.
