What do you mean?

You mean, it's a poorly designed challenge or you don't see the point of completing it in the context of the game?

I did it!!! Oh my fucking God. That was amazing. I'm so awesome.

Screw you guys who go out on Friday nights, I got my 20th trinket on VVVVVV. Nothing more exciting in life.

Good game, very tough, interesting mechanic. Also, the levels are very well made and the difficulty curve is pretty well designed.

Most challenges are easy-ish to beat, though, with some practice. This one, however, took me forever.

ah- i was most worried about the learning curve. I was hoping this wasn't a game that was hard for hard's sake.

The first levels are pretty tame and although you can tackle them in any order you want, if you go to the places near your starting point, it will be easier.
