In the old SAB, when you ran out of extra lives and chose not to continue, you were kicked out of the instance and had your 5 total lives replenished.
Now, you’re kicked out and set to 1 life.
This rather diminishes the fun and rather goes against the whole “lives are cheap” point of Tribulation Mode.
Is this a bug or a “feature” to get us to buy the infinite coin?
If you get a game over and return to the hub and attempt to immediately re-enter a world, you will have 1 life.
If you have a continue coin and use it when you get a game over or buy one from Moto when you get a game over, you will receive the 5 lives you are expecting.
TLDR: Get continue coins and use them for your five life bundles.
Also if you have 5 or 10 continue coins when you get a game over, you can use them in bulk for 25 or 50 lives
