Super Rude Bear Resurrection is a hyper-difficult platformer, to be sure.

Or, you could not do that. You could instead die in those traps, leaving your body as a convenient buffer against them. Dying leaves a handy soft corpse to protect you from each trap, so you can just layer any given stage with corpses until you can get by. It's a solid mechanic that makes the constant death of vicious platformers into a useful thing,and ensures you'll beat each level...eventually.
