Edit: moving platforms are moderate for me. I managed to figure out some tricks to make it work better. Moving slopes would be a nightmare to program.

Are you talking about angular slopes or rounded slopes? I had some difficulty with angular, but rounded seems impossible for me.

Angular slopes. It's possible to program rounded slopes but there would be a lot of trigonometry involved.
