Matango Jump (マタンゴジャンプ, Matangojanpu) is the 10th stage in the Battle Game of Super Bomberman 2.

Description

It is in the middle of a forest. Hard Blocks break the level up into several sections that cannot be reached on foot. Players must navigate the stage by pressing the "Y" button to jump. A player who jumps into the air may stay in place or move one tile space in any direction using the D-pad. When landing on top of an obstacle, the player will bounce in the direction in which he or she was moving until landing on an empty tile space. If there are no empty tile spaces, the player will bounce forever. The Soft Blocks in this stage will regenerate, and may still yield additional items upon returning.

If the player destroys a soft block in the 4th, 5th, 7th, or 8th rows and then tries to bounce across, or if the player destroys a soft block in the 4th, 5th, 6th, 8th, 9th, or 10th columns, and then tries to bounce up or down, that soft block may regenerate, causing the player to bounce forever due to Screen Wrapping.

Trivia

• The ability to jump is unique to this stage, but it can be activated for the other stages of the Battle Game by pressing the "A" button on controller 5 (a multitap is required) during one of the configuration screens. The following Game Genie code may also be used: DD1E5F6F
• Each half of the stage is an exact replica of the other half, flipped both horizontally and vertically.
• The first half of this stage's name possibly gave rise to the titular enemy, Matango.

The ability to jump makes it virtually impossible to trap the other players as they can simply jump over and away from explosions.

Players that land on top of Pressure Blocks will be eliminated.
