Green Stars[edit]
Green Star 1[edit]
The first Green Star is located under a disappearing platform in the top right, near the back of the "Mario Hat" lava pool and right above the "ear". The player should wait on the center of the platform, and drop down to land onto the star. If the player is not in the center of the platform, then Mario falls past the star and loses a life. If the player misses, they canspin before falling into thepit.

Green Star 2[edit]
The second Green Star is located on another disappearing platform, yet to the far top left on the "right hand" of the planet. Mario must simply stand in the middle while the platform is shrinking, and fall down onto the star. If not done correctly, Mario falls to his death instead of onto the star. Like before, the player can spin before falling to their death if they missed.
