Maybe it doesn't qualify because of the developer's intent that people try it, but Hero Core seems like it has a great example of this otherwise: The extra difficulty mode is like a boss rush with 8 of the game's bosses on hard mode, except all of them attack simultaneously and you're at level 0 with no powerups. The bosses fill the screen with bullets, making it like a bullet hell shooter but without the tiny hitboxes, and the bosses themselves also fill up much of the screen while moving around erratically. Even under TAS conditions it's extremely difficult just to beat it at all (never mind beating it optimally), despite the gameplay being entirely skill-based (all you have to do is shoot each boss until it's dead).
