==Level Synopsis==
[[File:Para Beetle Challenge.png|thumb|left|Mario traveling across Para-Beetles]]
Set high in the sky, this auto scrolling stage contains very little in the way of solid ground. Instead, players must use the backs of red [[Para-Beetle]]s to progress through the level. Aside from the persistent danger of missing a jump and falling, there are few obstacles in the stage.

Set high in the sky, this auto-scrolling stage contains very little solid ground. Instead, the player must jump on the backs of red [[Para-Beetle]]s to progress through the level, in a similar way to [[World 5-6 (Super Mario Bros. 3)|World 5-6]] from the main game, which creates a persistent danger of missing a jump and falling.


The player starts on a cloud platform beside a [[? Block]] containing a [[Fire Flower]] and a wall of blocks, and the level begins scrolling slowly and to the right. Several Para-Beetles appear from the right of the screen flying to the left, which the player must jump on to collect the first Advance Coin. Beyond the wall of blocks are two smaller cloud platforms, followed by a large [[Pit|bottomless pit]]. The second Advance Coin is found above two very small cloud platforms. At this point, the level begins scrolling upwards and to the right. The player must jump on a series of vertically ascending Para-Beetles to collect the third Advance Coin.
===New Level Elements===
None.


Immediately afterwards, the screen stops scrolling vertically, and two Para-Beetles appear from the left of the screen flying to the right, which the player must ride to progress. To collect the fourth Advance Coin, the player must either make a high jump off a Para-Beetle or allow it to rise upwards. Following this is a ceiling of blocks which requires the player to lower the Para-Beetles, then a wall which requires raising the Para-Beetles, and a platform in the middle of the screen, with the fifth and final Advance coin below the platform. Afterwards, the screen's scrolling speed outpaces the Para-Beetles flying to the right, requiring the player to jump on several Para-Beetles flying quickly to the left until they reach the [[Warp Pipe]] at the end of the section. The three leftmost [[Brick Block]]s above the Warp Pipe contain nothing and can be destroyed, while the four rightmost Brick Blocks each contain one [[coin]]. Entering the Warp Pipe leads directly to the goal with no further obstacles.
