Lava Geyser: Difference between revisions
Small touch-ups. Integrated infobox. Added request for better name source - I feel I have seen "Fire Geyser" capitalized in official capacities somewhere (maybe Mario Kart Tour?), but the cited reference clearly lowercases it as "lava geyser" in the actual textual body. "Lava Geyser" is just a capitalized subsection title in the source.

Lava Geysers are first seen in ''[[Mario vs. Donkey Kong]]''. They can lift moving platforms up into the air when they rise from the lava, allowing Mario to reach higher ground. Lava Geysers only rise when the moving platforms above them reach specific positions, and the geysers make a splashing sound as they rise. They only appear in a few levels of the third world, [[Fire Mountain (world)|Fire Mountain]], starting with [[Level 3-1 (Mario vs. Donkey Kong)|Level 3-1]]. | |||

[[Mini]]s can board Lava Rocks to move across lava without being harmed, similarly to [[raft]]s from [[Tropical Island]]. If a Mini boards a Lava Rock, it remains standing on the Lava Rock until its direction is changed by swiping left, right, or up across the Mini using the {{button|ds|Stylus}} stylus. | ||
Certain Lava Fountains will occasionally stop to erupt at specific points, creating a pillar of lava upwards which carries a Lava Rock with it. A Mini can still stand on a Lava Rock while the Lava Fountain below it is erupting; however, if the Mini touches the Lava Fountain, it is burned and destroyed. | Certain Lava Fountains will occasionally stop to erupt at specific points, creating a pillar of lava upwards which carries a Lava Rock with it.
