3-1

Strat 1: Do nothing. (U1.1; J1.0; J1.1; J1.2)
Strat 2: Run forward as far as you can. (J1.0; J1.1; J1.2)
Strat 3: Run to the right and tongue or stomp the Grinder (monkey), then flutter low and to the left into the wall. (J1.0; J1.2)

*Video Example*

Backups:

  • If you fail to grab or stomp the grinder then run right.

3-2

Run past the first Milde and turn left. Jump on it at the last moment.

*Video Example*

  • Things that can end your run:

Ending on the left side of the screen.

3-3

Bounce on the grinders to avoid going by the egg splitter plant. Jump into the Nep-Enut (around the middle) and swim to the left.

*Video Example*

Things that can end your run:

  • Collecting eggs can cause trouble in 3-8 and 6-8.
  • Landing in the water too close to the left wall will make it unable to scroll properly.

Backups:

  • If the screen doesn't scroll jump out of the water and grab baby Mario.
  • If you mess up movement at all it's likely you wont make it in time. In that case face to the left next to the pole.

3-4

Run by the shyguy and then run left into the water. Up tongue to avoid eggs.

*Video Example*

3-5

Spit the first grinder into the 2nd grinder. Move back to the left edge of the foam and don't move until the screen is white. Flutter under the stage.

3-5

Many odd things can happen on this stage. if you wish not to deal with it simply stand still.


3-6

Spit the 1st 2 grinders (monkeys) into each other and hold left.

3-6


3-7

Go right and jump on the first Stilt Guy, then grab the shyguy and go back to where you started. Lose control while in the water, moving left, and staying on the right side of the screen.

3-7

Backups:

  • If you miss the shyguy run right while staying out of the water.


3-8

Check your egg count for how many eggs you have (not counting null egg). You must have 4 or less, if you have more throw some. Go into the pipe. Tongue the first Shyguy. wait a moment and then get hit by the second and damage boost past the 3rd. Now spit all 3 Shyguys into the sewer ghost. Stand in the lower area and face to the left.

3-8

If you have 4 eggs you have to do this strat but with 2 shyguys instead of 3. Wait longer before running into the 2nd shyguy.
