Thank you so much! Really love the point you made about how the difficulty fits right into the era, we feel like the overall challenge of the game is one that takes practice but becomes very enjoyable and satisfying once you get the hang of! Just like a lot of games I grew up playing as well. Despite this we do want to make it a little bit more approachable/apply some more quality of life features for players so we're taking that into account for the 1.1 patch after the jam :)
