What happens if I run out of time?
Keys begin disappearing when the timer runs low, making progression harder. If the timer fully expires, you lose a life.
How do I deal with Snapjaws on vines?
Time your movements carefully – climb past them when they're facing away or drop using the X key to avoid them. Jumping over them with Z works on platforms.
Why does Mario appear in some levels?
Mario drops obstacles like springs and fireballs in later stages. Avoid his projectiles while climbing, and use platforms strategically to evade him.
