We're going to add in an easy mode for WnK. We weren't willing to tone down the difficulty of later levels, but felt that it might be a bit tough for casual gamers, so we're going to add in an easy level of difficulty. All levels in Easy Mode are variations of Normal Mode levels, just with some of their puzzle elements removed. So they might have more boxes available, or a particularly nasty action element removed. This should not only allow an easier learning curve, but allow players to become familiar with the layouts of the levels they will find in Normal Mode, giving a better shot at beating their harder, bigger brothers.
We also feel this will have the added benefit of allowing 2 player co-op teams to finish the game without murdering one another. We have long suspected that the 2 player in WnK would be similar to the 2 player in say, BattleToads. There was no way any 2 players ever completed the original BattleToads. The Level 2 / Level 3 combo was enough to foil virtually every attempt. With an Easy Mode in play, it should allow people who are just wanting to have a good time with chums to play pretty far into the game without worrying about investing in too much neck wrangling.
