I remember a game I played when I was really young, but now can't remember the name of it.

It's a side view game, where each screen is a level (i.e. sort of like Bubble Bobble in that way, even though it plays nothing like Bubble Bobble).

The first level, there are five floors on the left, and a bird (an owl?) on the upper right. The bird alternates between attacking the second and fourth floors, and attacking the third floor. So to beat this level, you have to jump up while the bird is still flying from its normal position to the floors. The fifth floor is the way out. There was a secret on the very right, where if you jump off the top into the tree on the right, there's an extra life (I think) in the tree.

The 6th (I think) level had a candle in the middle of the room. I remember that when you get to higher floors on the 6th level, the flame of the candle gets larger.

I suspect this game came out before 1986, because I moved in 1986 (and I think I played it before I moved), but not sure on that one.
