Introductory Stage

The introductory stage (also referred to as the start) is the beginning of the game where the player starts off. There is no checkpoint leading to this stage in the game, as it can be accessed at all times by starting at the beginning. During this stage, the player is introduced to the unlimited balls powerup which allows the player to throw an infinite amount of balls for a certain amount of time. After the introductory stage is complete, the player will reach checkpoint 1.
