Donut Plains 4

Donut Plains 4 is the last level of the Donut Plains in Super Mario World, just before Morton Koopa Jr.'s castle. Since this stage is out in the open, it is a suitable place for the Koopa Troop's aerial force to attack. Therefore, Mario or Luigi will meet the airborne counterpart of the Hammer Bro., known as the Amazing Flyin' Hammer Bro., as well as a squadron of Paragoombas for the first time. The level has a grassland theme.

Interestingly, the two versions of Paragoomba can be seen in this level: the Goomba paratrooper, who only appeared in Super Mario World, and the Winged Goomba, who was called Paragoomba in other Mario games.

Overview

This level consists of one long screen, which the player has 300 seconds on the Timer to complete.

There are two secret areas in this level; both can be reached using blue Warp Pipes. To get to the first secret area, the player must enter the blue pipe located near the beginning of the stage, avoiding the Jumping Piranha Plant. It will lead him to a small area with two Parakoopas; the player must then jump on green pipes to cross the pit, and reach another pipe to exit the area.

The second secret area is located farther in the level. Once again, the player must enter a blue pipe to reach a tiny underground area. In the small cave, the player can collect Coins as well as a Dragon Coin.

Exit

The Giant Gate at the end of Donut Plains 4 can be found beyond a large abyss. The only way to reach it is to knock down the nearby Amazing Flyin' Hammer Bro., then jump onto his flying platform. The player could also fly over there by using a Blue Shell or simply a Cape.
