I have a lot of respect for this but it's really high difficulty
You have to realize that you must move super slowly not to lose the candle.
Depends how much forgiveness you want philosophically like maybe some mercy of spawning another candle (difficulty selections? the way Stardock caters to all personalities with GalCiv 2,3,4's AI enemy strategy hardnesses)
Otherwise yeah it's me that sucks, not the game haha
