Right up until the end of the game I found it too easy and never had to even think about using a powerup, but in the last 10-20 seconds before I died I felt myself completely overwhelmed and lost really quickly. I also felt the button mashing to be a bit spammy and would have liked quick thinking to play a bigger part.
