Chroma Tundra (beta)

Chroma Tundra (beta) / Shifting Sand Land (beta) is an area in B3313.

Description
A snow version of Shifting Sand Land, with a guarded tower in place of a pyramid. Approaching the stoney structure in the level will transport the player to the traditional sandy variation of the level. Approach the quicksand pit next to the stoney structure in the desert state to warp back to the snow state.

Origin
The idea and stage is lifted from Greenio's Super Mario 64: CLASSIFIED video "Snow level playtest" where a developer tests an early version of Shifting Sand Land called Chroma Tundra, and suggests making it a desert level instead as he thought having three snow levels might be a bit much. The level in the video has collision issues not present in this stage.

 * In desert state, there's the star on the top of the pyramid.

 * Bowser's Outpost: Break the crates inside the fenced tower area and jump into the pipe.
