A sequel later appears in Barbershop Tower under the title LumBEARjack 2.

Gameplay
You play as a a bear cutting pieces of wood placed by Lumbercats. Small wood takes only one hit to break, and medium sized wood takes two hits to break. The cats will sometimes place down baseball bats or cans on the stump, confusing the bear. During the gameplay, multiple Lumbercats will appear and dance in the background.

Notice that the large logs do not appear in this variant.

Trivia

 * LumBEARjack is included in the Rhythm Heaven Megamix Demo.
 * When he chops something other than wood, the confused sound the Woodcutter Bear makes is the same sound that the Wrestler makes when answering out of turn in Ringside.
 * The breath sound effect that plays when the Woodcutter Bear is finished chopping the last log is the same one used in the endless game Clap Trap.
