Inspiration and development[edit]

This level was inspired by the classic Moai stages in the Gradius series, with the act two twist of most of the Brown Moai turning into Red Moai being a callback to the Moai stages tending to introduce a new twist to the Moais halfway through the stage (for example, the laser eyes Moai introduced partway through Gradius Gaiden's Moai stage).
