How does one manage to fuck up editing a pixelated picture?
Like you literally just had to copy and paste the square bits, but you somehow managed to fuck up and rotate them. How? HOW?

Really then, what is it? I agree it kinda looks like lava but that wouldn't make sense

The sloppy editing is in the bad seams between tiles, but the "rotation" is just an optical illusion.

I was looking at pictures of old grecoroman temples and even artistic representations of how they looked back then with proper painting and ornamentation, but couldn't find anything resembling these.
Many of us interpreted them as "lava blocks" probably because of the level itself, but it's really odd and I doubt that was the intention.r
Ornamental jewels as other anon suggested is more likely, but who knows.

I know this picture is a joke, but it's actually missing an angle you can see it from in Lava Reef which explains why it's facing the opposite direction in the bottom images - it's implied you're going all the way around it

A lot of people have said the pattern directly below the "lava" tiles resembles mario looking straight forward. Big nose in the middle, two eyes above, and a mustache wrapping around the nose

So it's "lava blocks" or jewels/glass ornaments?
We need a consensus, people

could they just be, like, little chambers with fire burning inside and it lights up the walls?

The glass theory makes the most sense. Buildings like that would have a space to let in sunlight and the artist likely had trouble conveying that and wound up going with an overly saturated red/orange just so it looks finished and not a tile error.
