La-Mulana: Finished the main game on Normal mode.
To activate hard mode you have to read a tablet in the Giant's Mausoleum (Hard mode doubles boss health and attack power)
I got the under 20 hour and under 40 hour achievements on Steam (about 14 hours clocked in by the time I finished.)
Some key advice: Make sure the Lamp of Time is charged before defeating the last boss as you have only 5 minutes to escape the Ruins and the Buzzsaws in the Endless Corridor are still active (They do quite a bit of damage). Lamp of time stops them and enemies but not the countdown.
