My reason behind "if you can't beat your own game", is that a developer will have skill beyond that of average players. If they can't beat it, average players can't either, and they are the target audience. But if you have your heart set on the difficulty then by all means go for it. And I do hope this game goes far! It's really cool! Though, please refrain from calling a players hours of frustration funny, that is quite hurtful.
