It's kind of like Little Ol' Whacker but also kind of not. It has the same formula, but has a lot of different stuff.
1. Yes it will be spooky (or at least hopefully)
2. There are lives because there are burning tree obstacles throughout the whole game, and I want to make them actually threatening instead of just a simple obstacle (which it is, but still). They're actually in the 4th game as well for that same reason.
