The unfortunate thing about all this is that nowadays there are a lot of levels, not condemned to enjoy before it's over. Five Beginner story levels and six time trial, total. It's not so bad, I think, but there are another 20 (plus bonus but there are many levels) dangled just out of reach. Granted, I'd probably complain a little less if I really cared for the time trial, but it's just not as exciting or interesting, without this constant element of danger. So in my case, I'm enjoying only five levels, before I saw everything there was to be seen.
