It will ramp up really quickly after (basically difficulty gets harder faster and faster)."},{"author_name":"cameronpenner","author_uid":"56667","time":"Apr 18, 2016 @ 10:21pm","epoch":1461017760,"text":"The path planning was cool, and I like the concept.

I see that the difficulty ramps up after 6-7 minutes, but some additional upgrade would have been nice.
