*Levels 1 through 8 are all conjoined as part of the same mountain, with the player(s) progressing slightly higher with each level completed. Bits of earlier/later levels can be seen, such as the cliffs that compose Level 3 on Level 2, and the higher areas of Level 4 on Level 6. Because of palette limitations, these levels do not sport their proper colors until the player has to play on them.
