Can't say I liked the game nearly as much as you did.

I found the difficulty curve to be strange since the game started ez, then got really hard (due to certain enemy type), and then I got really ez for the rest of the game.

Random levels did not help at all, in fact, it made the experience even worse. The reason why it made worse was due to, let's say, poor design. For an example. Going up and down to new rooms puts your characters at immense risk in comparison to going left or right.

And what random levels do, is that these flaws in level design are sometimes placed in the worst way possible, creating insanely big difficulty spikes for an arbitrary reason. So you could find a level immensly hard on the first time, and then proceed to do it again after a fail and you would be completely fine.
