Clarifying a bit of the above: the author advertised their game as unique (never claiming it was the ultimate anything), most players were off-put by the difficulty, the author responded that they disagreed, drama ensued, and the author in the end did accept that they'll need to adjust with the next release. Hyperbole flowed from both sides of the debate like majestic waterfalls of excrement (fortunately, not one of this games fetishes), and the claim that Shrinking Exp of all things has more polish leads me to believe the above poster was entrenched in the more volatile portion of the debate.
Tl:dr, ignore these last two posts, and judge the game for yourself. Maybe you'll find it too hard, maybe you'll enjoy it, I dunno. Just ignore this drama.
