that is because you are an ice. its like the main challenge of the game: speedrun with the bad movement. there is even a power up (the ice phoenix feather) that makes you move normally, as if it were a precision platformer, for only 20 seconds (a run lasts ~2 minutes).
if you still think its hard. it might just be a skill issue. but that can be fixed by replaying the game.
thank you for your concern.
