Previously it was thought that an A press was required to get into Hazy Maze Cave (by jumping onto the platform). This video shows that is not the case.
I accomplish this by chasing MIPS near the platform, then diving into him in such a way that Mario crashes into the wall and drops him before landing. This "Bunny Drop Glitch" stops MIPS from moving and I perform this several times to move MIPS closer to the platform. Eventually he is close enough so that I land at the edge of the platform, where the star finally spawns. Collecting the star with a dive recover warps Mario to the top of the platform.
Note that the star does not need to be in the corner, it just has to spawn right at the edge of the platform. Potentially this could be done with one dive and without utilizing the Bunny Drop glitch, but this was much easier. Hopefully someone more skilled will redo this faster, and with audio. Cheers.
