Hi Dark,
Yes, in  a way you culd say that. However, let's make a comparison. In Q9
the other day, I attempted normal difficulty, and only got to the first
level of the Death World. I found that the margin between normal and easy
was reasonable, but I don't quite find that with Tarzan Junior. Tell
me--have you ever gotten a vine on insane?

Best Regards,
Hayden

Funnily enough haiden, I personally always thought of this as one of the 
games' strengths.

I got through easy on the day I bought it (yes, I bought it before it went 
freeware), and was a trifle disappointed, but normal took me a degree more 
practice to beat and I've never done it on insane.

for my money, this is actually how difficulties should be, so once you raise

the difficulty, you need to raise your game to match.

I also noticed philip seems to carry this on in his other games as well, in 
fact generally I'd say formulating difficulty levels seems to be one of 
philip's major strengths.

beware the Grue!

Dark.
