Jolly Roger Bay (beta)

Jolly Roger Bay (beta) is an area in B3313.

Description
The area mostly looks like the vanilla Jolly Roger Bay, with a few key changes. The platform usually reached via the cannon containing the star is now accessible using several other platforms the player can climb. The eel is missing, but its tunnel is now unblocked, and so are the chests in the cavern. Additionally, the main bay area has been slightly expanded. The sunken ghost ship can be raised by opening the metal cap block on the water surface, then dropping down and pressing a purple switch. In 0.9, a thick blue fog was added to the level.

Floating Ghost Ship
There are two known ways to activate the foggy variant of the level. The first and easier option is to idle on the title screen for about 35 seconds (roughly a little bit after Mario screams "N-N-N-N-NO!" two times). Alternatively, they can defeat the final boss and view the ending cutscene, then warp back from Star Road. Then, the player must warp to Beta Lobby C and enter the level. If the player has done so correctly, standing on the bow of the ship after raising it out of the water will warp the player to the floating ghost ship.

Origins
The area is mainly inspired by the vanilla version of the titular area. Some textures are taken from the Shoshinkai beta version of Super Mario 64. The appearance of the trees comes from unused sprites found in the vanilla game's source code.

The music playing is a recreation of the "Dire, Dire Docks" theme heard in the beta footage.

Stars
This area has 5 stars to collect:


 * There is a star in the item box on the highest platform in the bay area.
