| RAM:0094

Number of lives (WORD).

|
Number of lives "mirror" (WORD).

This exists likely due to sloppy programming. At a place it's set to the number of lives you get when you start a new game, and then copied to 0xff0094 (the usual lives address). Other places in the game only copy from this to '0094 or the other way around. It is not updated when lives become 0, as the game won't run the code to copy '0094 back to '00ba then. All the checks on lives take place on '0094, so you don't need to care about this one.
