{The same level start scene is shown with the words, "TRY LEVEL 4.1" at the bottom.}

{As the level begins, the following words are projected across the screen for a few seconds.}

PROTECT 1-UP!
A - JUMP,
S - POUND,
ARROW KEYS - MOVE

Try not to let this happen.

After you complete the level...

1-UP: I wanna be the guy too!

[edit] Stage 4.1 (Guide)

Like so.

Start with red, followed by blue...

• The first thing to do is to run forward and put your fist under the first lava-fall and wait for 1-Up to get through.
• When you walk out of the lava-fall, a robot will run on the upper platform and throw his fist at you from behind. He's called "Poorbt". As long as your fist is between him and you (you're not facing the other way) he won't hurt you. If you're under a lava flow when he shows up, it is recommended to stand directly below the lava that is turned slightly towards him. Pounding in that position will block his fist and the lava at the same time.
• Walk over so your fist is over the red blob, called "Gokul", and press S to kill it. Do the same with the red flying thing, called "Frotzer".
• Protect 1-Up from another lava-fall (while stopping the Poorbt in front of you) and kill the Gokul beyond it.
• Stand on the green tile and jump 3 times to move the green platform into position
• Kill the Frotzer and jump 4 times on the red tile. Kill the Gokul.
• Another Poorbt in front of you, and another lava-fall.
• Once 1-Up's past the lava-fall, run on to the green tile. Wait until 1-Up is standing on the green platform, then jump 3 times. Don't jump too fast, or the platform will slide away from under 1-Up and you'll lose.
• Kill the Gokul and block the lava-fall.
• Run on to the blue tile as soon as 1-Up's past. Watch out for the Poorbt behind you.
• As soon as 1-Up steps on the blue platform, jump 3 times. Then as soon as he gets off, jump 3 times again. Then when he gets on the next blue platform, jump 3 times (but slower).
• Run ahead and block the lava-fall. In New Mode, 1-Up will cross the checkpoint flag.
• Don't worry about the cliff, 1-Up will fall off it safely. Run ahead and kill the Gokul, and protect yourself from the Poorbt in front of you.
• Kill the blue Frotzer (actually a "Gaspeau"), and jump 4 times on the red tile. Then run ahead, kill the Frotzer and the Gokul, and block the lava-fall.
• Kill the Gokul, quickly turn around and block the Poorbt behind you, then turn around again to block the Poorbt in front of you.
• Run on to the green tile, blocking another Poorbt behind you, and jump 3 times. When 1-Up makes it to the 2nd green platform jump 3 times again (slowly), when he makes it to the 3rd platform jump 2 times. 1-Up will be able to climb the step that's left and you won't have to worry about the last platform.
• Block the lava-fall and kill the Gaspeau and the Gokul.
• Run ahead and jump on the red tile 2 times and then the blue tile 3 times (in that order).
• Kill the Frotzer, block the lava-fall, and wait for 1-Up to reach the end.

[edit] Stage 4.2 (Transcript)

...then he may live to be the guy too.

{The same level start scene is shown with the words, "TRY LEVEL 4.2" at the bottom.}

{As the level begins, the following words are projected across the screen for a few seconds.}

START PLAY!

[edit] Stage 4.2 (Guide)

Fistbumps can save you and your dumb friend.

Start with red if you can.

• First, kill the Gokul, then jump 6 times on the blue tile and block the lava-fall. A Poorbt will come behind you while you're standing there; block it.
• Once 1-Up's through the lava-fall, kill the Gokul, block the Poorbt in front of you, and block the next lava-fall.
• Run up, block the Poorbt in front of you, and wait on the green tile. When 1-Up makes it to the green platform, jump 4 times.
• Kill the Gokul, and the Gaspeau which comes in from the left. When 1-Up makes it to the red platform, jump on the red tile 5 times (slowly).
• Run up and block the next lava-fall.
• Run on and kill the green laser-shooting blob (called "Pink Cham Cham"). His lasers don't hurt your fist, so stand with the fist over him and press S.
• Run ahead to the blue tile, blocking 3 Poorbts in front of you on the way.
• When 1-Up makes it to the blue platform jump 5 times (slowly), then kill the Gokul and jump 5 times on the red tile.
• Jump on the moving platform to go up to the next level. Don't worry if you miss it the first time, there's plenty of time.
• Block the lava-fall and kill the Gokul (you need to be fast here).
• Stand on the red tile with your fist in the next lava-fall. When 1-Up gets to the red platform, jump 4 times (slowly). In New Mode, 1-Up will cross the checkpoint flag.
• Run ahead to the blue tile and jump on it 10 times. Kill the Frotzer and block the Poorbt in front of you.
• Run on to the red tile. When 1-Up makes it to the red platform jump 4 times.
• When 1-Up gets on the first green platform jump on the green tile 3 times (slowly); do it again when he steps on the second green platform.
• Kill the Pink Cham Cham and run on to the blue tile, blocking the Poorbt behind you.
• When 1-Up makes it to the blue platform jump on the blue tile 3 times. Then when he makes it to the green platform jump on the green tile 3 times.
• Jump on the red tile 3 times, then again (slowly) when 1-Up steps on the red platform. Then jump on the green tile 3 times.
  • If you can, run ahead and get the red platform ready before 1-Up even reaches the blue platform, in order to prevent rushing and making mistakes.
• Run ahead and block the next lava-fall, then get on the next moving platform and go up a level. Again, don't worry if you miss it the first time.
• Jump 4 times on the blue tile. A platform will appear for Stinkoman, blocking his way to safety, so press the blue button again 4 times once 1-Up is past blue platform.
• Run ahead and block the last lava-fall, revealing the flag behind it. Wait for 1-Up to finish.

Some form of joke challenge

{Cut to a close-up of 1-Up.}

1-UP: {subtitled} I MADE IT ALL BY MYSELF!

[edit] Level 4 Boss: Saargtsson (Guide)

• Saargtsson is a giant lava snake made up of several segments and a head. The Stinkomanual says that he doesn't play fair, but truth be told, Saargtsson isn't that hard, as long as you know what you're doing.
• He jumps up from the lava, firing green lasers up at you. Also, a flame called Firey-Hot will occasionally appear above your head, but you'll have enough warning to move out of the way. His lasers are usually not aimed at you, so focus on Firey-Hot, which will aim for you.
• In order to damage Saargtsson, pound the ground above him to hit the last segment of his body, the one furthest from his head. Each segment will vanish after two hits. Keep in mind that you have to use the rocks to hit him, as the stone fist doesn't actually hurt anything.
  • Once you've got all six segments and there's nothing left but his head, it will take 3 hits to finish him off.
• Be careful, he'll jump a little higher with each segment you remove, and once he's down to his last couple of body segments, he'll be able to reach your platform. Just avoid him and keep hitting him once he's under you. Firey-Hot also picks up the pace the more you damage Saargtsson. The best strategy is to focus attacking whenever you have the chance, but to drop anything and run out of the way when Firey-Hot is about to burninate you.
• Don't get too close to the edge of the screen, or Firey-Hot and Saargtsson will pin you in, and you'll have no choice but to take damage.
• Saargtsson is easiest to hit when he's moving away from you as he's rising because you don't have to worry about his laser. Wait in the middle and rush to his back side as he begins his attack. You can get in several hits with one pass if timed correctly. Fifteen hits, and he's a goner.
