==Course Versions==
==Course Versions==
There are three versions of the course that can appear by selecting different stars. Keep in mind that if there are any blue stars (uncollected) present in the star selection menu, then the last version that can be selected is the first blue star and not the stars after it:

==Coins==
There are 74 coins outside of the Pyramid and 62 coins inside the pyramid for a combined maximum of 136 total coins for this score. The max can be raised using the [[Breaking-Disappearing Cork Box Glitch]], which allows collection of infinite coins.

Performing a dive recover (press B at run speed) allows entering the painting without pressing A.

The biggest obstacle is to get to Eyerok's boss fight without pressing A. To do so, Mario needs to get on top of the wire mesh to access the teleporter via wrong-warping (the teleporter is intended to be one-way, but it can be activated by standing on a slightly higher ground). That way, Mario can enter the room from above, normally accessed by standing on top of the four pillars and riding down on the elevator.

To get onto reach the wire mesh, Mario uses a combination of a precise goomba bounce (by scaring the goomba and bumping into it to make it jump twice) and a [[Star Dance Clip]], allowing Mario to grab onto the ledge. Such a movement requires Mario to collect 99 coins beforehand, but the course is short on coins collectable without pressing A. Before Mario enters the pyramid, he uses the breaking/disappearing cork box glitch to clone the box and collect coins from it multiple times until there are enough coins to reach 100. To speed the process up, he uses a bob-omb to set the HOLP and releases the box via hat-in-hand glitch using the wing cap.

From the standard entrance, going to where the secrets are located costs 2 A Presses<ref name="SSL A"/> using known strategies, and therefore it is better to enter the pyramid from the top. However, jumping out from the elevator requires an A press, as a dive recover is incapable of escaping it.
From the standard entrance, going to where the secrets are located costs 1 A Press<ref name="SSL A"/> using known strategies, and therefore it is much faster to enter the pyramid from the top, since using the 1 A Press strat from the bottom entrance requires the 100 coin star. However, jumping out from the elevator requires an A press, as a dive recover is incapable of escaping it.
