Health system in hard mode
I noticed when I was in the paramonian temple on a trial where I had to jump between 3 swinging rocks, and after I'd jump it would trigger bats to come down from above and attack me. I was stuck here for a very very irritating long time because I would make it through the trial, then on the way back I have to jump through this area again, and I would often be instantly killed if the bat would touch me for just a millisecond.

In the original I reclal that the bats would kill me instantly though, but they were easier to avoid too. But this was how it became clear to me that you didn't quite remove the health system on hard mode. This was the only area where it really got on my nerves though (i.e. the behavior in the original games would be that after X time has passed from taking damage, health is reset; with fleeches and bees but in this game the health system is set up so that you can only regen your health when you free mudokons or transition between major areas; and that became a problem here. I read somewhere in game I could chant to refill my health, but this did not seem to have any effect on hard mode.)

Please do something about it :P

Bats were annoying also for me. Try to kill them with bottle caps before jumping between swinging rocks. When they are gone, health is no problem anymore.
