Journey Of The Prairie King too hard?

[Kerkan]

Ok so i've just spent about 30-45min maybe in the mini-game, but it seems that each new area steeps a bit too hard in difficulty, area one was challenging, died once maybe twice on average. But that's not an issue when you get new 1ups every now and then. But it's at the new area things just ramped up too hard, suddenly enemies running fast at you and needs two shots to die which may not be a huge issue if they did not come in pairs of 6 from 2 sides.
Then mix the big slow guys in with it, it gets quite hard but yet, do-able i guess.
My main issue began at area 3, with what i think was a graveyard with mummies and bats? Suddenly my gun did not do anything, takes 5 shots or something for the enemies to die which would not be an issue if they did not come in swarms.
To note, i had bought 1 speed upgrade and 2 fire rate upgrades.

I am curious if it's just me that's experienced this, and if not then i think the mini-game needs a small re-work to make it challenging but yet fun, not aggravatingly hard to play.

The only time I made it to the graveyards boss was when I literally only bought damage upgrades, and even then theres a level in the graveyard that just ♥♥♥♥♥ bats at you and I lost 3-4 lives. The third upgrade is by far the most important, it increases damage by 1 and allows it to pierce. I just really hope that the graveyard is the last area.

Oh my... I can't even get past the first area. I can sense there will be no achievement for me...
