It took me a long time to realize that dying and respawning with extra lives was part of the main game loop. In most other games, dying is to be avoided.

Once I realized that, the game was honestly too easy.

I didn't find Ultra Nightmare particularly easy. The life system doesn't really change the actual gameplay difficulty.
