***In the [[stunt double#Commentary Transcript|DVD commentary]], the Brothers Chaps describe the Pie Factory as the fourth level of the game. This is correct in the sense that it is the fourth stage to appear in the American arcade version, although it is only the third unique one (stage three is a repeat of the first stage, only slightly harder). In the Japanese version, whose level ordering was used in most ports and remakes in all regions, it is the second stage.
