Description

Task: Player Lives
Feature: Refined Player Feature

This task aims to implement player lives which will impact the player's death event and the options available to the player after death. Players will initially be given three lives, and with each death, the number of player lives decreases by one. If the player has lives remaining, they are given the choice to restart the level or exit to the main menu. If the player has no lives left, they are only given the option to exit to the main menu and must restart the whole game from the beginning.
