Editing Moon (Super Mario Maker 2)

{{italic title|Moon (''Super Mario Maker 2'')}}

{{item-infobox

The '''Moon''' is a course part introduced in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]''. It is a crescent moon with a face, similar to [[3-Up Moon]]s and the moon found in the [[Space Zone]] of ''[[Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins]]''. It serves as an alternate form of the [[Angry Sun]].

When a Moon is placed in a course in the editor mode, the current theme switches to a 'night' variant with different properties than the normal daytime one. However, after it has been placed once, the night variant of every theme becomes selectable from the menu, and the Moon will not need to be placed again to trigger night mode from that point onward. In addition to unique level effects, nighttime levels have a starry background, with the exception of Ghost House, Airship, and Underwater levels, which have darker versions of their respective backgrounds; a music-box version of the level's music plays instead of the standard one. [[Stiletto Goomba]]s play an 8-bit drum beat while walking, and the laughing sound that plays while flutter jumping in a winged Goomba's Stiletto is bit-crushed.

! Item !! Night-time Ground theme effect
