I also just beat level 6 - the boss was rough but I managed to beat him due to my two extra lives.

I couldn't beat the first slayer gate challenge and am dreading going back through an entire level just to try again (I beat those that followed on my first try thanks to extra lives and the chain gun shield)

I kind of hate the way extra lives work in games like this. I couldn't imagine a worse feeling than if I failed that boss fight, only to have to start again with a single life. It's weird that I'd feel better without the temporary benefits, but it adds an extra stressor to each fight knowing my next attempt would be even harder.
