The '''Honeyhive Galaxy''' (called the '''Honeybee Galaxy'''<ref>{{cite|author=Shoemaker, Brad|date=October 17, 2007|url=www.gamespot.com/articles/super-mario-galaxy-hands-on-the-early-galaxies/1100-6181060|title=Super Mario Galaxy Hands-On - The Early Galaxies|publisher=GameSpot|accessdate=May 12, 2024|archive=web.archive.org/web/20190621211146/https://www.gamespot.com/articles/super-mario-galaxy-hands-on-the-early-galaxies/1100-6181060}}</ref> in prerelease material) is a [[galaxy]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. It is the site of the '''Honeyhive Kingdom''' that is ruled by the [[Honey Queen|Queen Bee]] and inhabited by friendly [[Honeybee]]s. This forest-based galaxy is full of [[Flower (environmental object)|flower]]s and [[honey wall]]s. The [[Bee Mushroom]] debuts here, transforming Mario into [[Bee Mario]]. This is one of the three bee-themed galaxies, the other two being the [[Honeyclimb Galaxy]] and [[Gold Leaf Galaxy]]. The aforementioned Gold Leaf Galaxy is also a mirror version of this galaxy, except with an autumn environment on the main planet and a few minor changes to the surrounding planets. In early versions of the game, Gold Leaf Galaxy planets could be found in Honeyhive Galaxy and/or vice versa, suggesting that they were originally planned as one larger galaxy.


'''Honeyhive Galaxy''' is a Galaxy in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. It is full of flowers, beehives and friendly [[bee]]s. The bees are ruled by the [[Queen Bee]]. [[Mario]] will use the [[Bee Mario|Bee Suit]] here for the first time. It is here that he learns how to use the Bee Suit and is now able to fly and stick on honeycombs.  
While the galaxy does not return in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', the [[Honeybloom Galaxy]] and [[Honeyhop Galaxy]] share the same bee-themed traits as this galaxy, and the Queen Bee makes a reappearance in the latter. The music theme of the galaxies is a remixed version of the theme playing in this galaxy, with additional instruments.

The first Planet that Mario visits contains many Honeybees, [[Boulder|Ruby Rock]]s, [[Slurple]]s, and on occasion [[Mandibug]]s. The first [[Bee Mushroom]] is located on this planet. There are also [[Flipbug]]s on this planet, as well as a large waterfall in the middle. The area behind the waterfall has a lot of [[honey]] on the ground which slows Mario down. A [[Launch Star]] at the end of this area will lead the player to the Flower Planet. The [[Toad Brigade]] and the first [[Power Star]] can be found on the top of a large tree here. During the second mission, Mario can use a [[Sproutle Vine]] to reach an area with a [[Sling Star]], leading to another area with a button and a [[Wiggler]] around it. When Mario presses it, it leads to the side of the starting planet, an area with boxes on them and a Launch Star leading to the Hat Planets. The area can also be reached in other missions with skilled [[jump]]s, though the Launch Star is not present. In mission three, the Queen Bee is behind the water, asking for Mario's assistance. A Launch Star appears later on, taking Mario to the Bugaboom Planet.

There is a group of [[Star Bit]]s to the immediate right of the starting area that form a large "M", in reference to [[Mario]]. There is another group of Star Bits in the [[Gold Leaf Galaxy]] that are in the same position as these Star Bits (mirror-wise, of course), which form a large "L", in reference to [[Luigi]].
===Bee Mario Takes Flight!===
{{multiple image
Mario will begin this level and all others on the largest planet in the Honeyhive Galaxy. Follow the path up the hill to a ? Coin, which reveals the game's first [[Bee Mushroom]]. Collect the powerup and fly up the nearby ledges. At the end of the tunnel is a tree stump with a hole in it. Jump down the hole and slide down the slide. Fly and jump across the ledges to reach the Launch Star, avoiding the honey that slows Mario down. Mario will land next to a pond filled with lily pads. One of the platforms has a dandelion that Mario can spin up to gain height. Use the flower to reach the flower platforms in the air, and carefully fly across them, avoiding the water jets, to reach the Launch Star. Mario will be faced with his first honeycomb wall. Climb the and fly up the wall to reach the pond where the Bee Queen resides. The Bee Queen is complaining about being covered in [[Star Chip]]s, so fly over to her and climb on her to collect them. Use the Launch Star to end up at the top of a tree on the main planet. The leader of the [[Toad Brigade]] will present Mario with a [[Power Star]].

=====Observation Deck=====
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
[[File:Honeyhive Galaxy4.png|200px|thumb]]
The Observation Deck is a wooden platform with three stories, which only exists in the [[Trouble on the Tower]] mission. The mini-boss and Power Star of Trouble on the Tower are found here. Mario must use a [[trapeze|swing]] here to get across the [[pit]]. At the bottom of this pit, a [[trampoline]] can be found. If Mario falls into the pit, there is a [[Life Mushroom]] guarded by two Mandibugs on the bottom level of the observation deck. Two trampolines can be used to get Mario up to the second level, which also has two Mandibugs and two walls for Mario to [[Wall Jump|wall jump]], so that he can get to the third level. In the third level, Mario must [[Ground Pound|ground pound]] a button while avoiding another Mandibug. After doing so, the [[Lift|windmill]] starts, and helps Mario reach the mini-boss, a [[Mandibug Stack]].
{{br}}


===Trouble on the Tower===
=====Flower Planet=====
Mario must go on to the Tower and defeat a large [[Mandibug]] to succeed.
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
[[File:Flowerplanet.png|thumb|200px]]
This planet contains many [[Flower (platform)|floating flower platforms]]. The bottom of the planet is full of lily pads floating in water that work as landing spots for Bee Mario. Several rock-spitting [[Octoguy]]s, a Flipbug, and some [[Piranha Plant]]s reside around the edges of the pond. Mario must reach the spinning flower platforms floating above this planet by using the [[Banandelion]]s and the [[Bee Mushroom]]. In the middle of the floating flower platforms is a gigantic flower platform, above which is a Launch Star that takes Mario to the Queen Bee Planet when used. In between the flower platforms, several fountains are found, which continually blast water into the air and will turn Bee Mario back into Mario if he is hit.
{{br}}


===Big Bad Bugaboom===
=====Queen Bee Planet=====
This level looks the same as normal, except that there are Mandibugs scattered throughout the galaxy. These bugs can only be killed with a ground pound, and unlike most enemies, release star bits when pounded. Mario will eventually battle the boss, Bugaboom.
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
[[File:SMG Queen Bee Planet.png|thumb|left|200px|The Queen Bee planet.]]
This planet is what the Honeybees call the "Queen's castle". The [[Honey Queen|Queen Bee]] and some Honeybees occur here. This planet starts with a honey wall. At the bottom of the wall, a Honeybee and a Piranha Plant can be found. To climb up the wall, Mario must run into it and go upwards. It requires one jump and [[fly]] period and the rest is climbing. There are some optional jump and fly periods for shortcuts, [[coin]]s, [[1-Up Mushroom]]s, etc. At the very top of the wall, a Piranha Plant can be seen holding down a sproutle. When Mario defeats it, it releases the sproutle, which brings Mario right in front of Queen Bee. Queen Bee is hovering in the middle of the Queen Bee planet. The Queen Bee Planet is filled with water and has a rim of ground going around it. It is possible to stick to Queen Bee and climb around her.
{{br}}


===Honeyhive Cosmic Mario Race===
=====Mushroom Twin Planets=====
Upon entering this level, a Cosmic doppelganger of Mario appears. Mario has to race this clone to the star. If Cosmic Mario reaches the star first, Mario loses a life and is forced to start over or return to the Observatory.
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
[[File:Honeyhive Galaxy2.png|200px|thumb]]
The Mushroom Twin Planets<ref>The file name for the Mushroom Twin Planets</ref> are two planets which twist around. They have many enemies. Several Piranha Plants are on the top mushroom planet, which Mario can defeat in order to receive star bits and coins. Then he must proceed to the bottom of the planet. Once there, Mario can jump and land in a ring of star bits on the second planet, which contains two Wigglers. At the bottom of this planet, a Launch Star can be found, which leads to the Mushroom Twin planets Planet.
{{br}}


===The Honehive's Purple Coins===
=====Tubed Relay Planet=====
Mario must collect 100 [[Purple Coin]]s on the main planet. There is no time limit.
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
[[File:Honeyhive Galaxy3.png|200px|thumb|left]]
The Tubed Relay Planet<ref>The filename for the Tubed Relay Planet</ref> is shaped like a rattle with, as the name suggests - a hollowed out "tubed" tree trunk as the handle. There is also a large bulb at the top. On the bulb at the top, many Piranha Plants are found. Defeating them will give Mario star bits or coins. A [[? Coin]] is found nearby, which releases a Rainbow Star so that Mario can defeat all the Piranha Plants.
{{br}}


===Luigi in the Honeyhive Kingdom===
=====Bugaboom Planet=====
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
[[File:Honeyhive Galaxy5.png|200px|thumb|left]]
Bugaboom is fought here. When Mario arrives at the planet, two platforms are found, each one with a [[Banandelion]]. The first one also has a Bee Mushroom, and the second platform has three coins. Mario must use the Bee Mushroom to reach the Banandelions and then fly on to the next platform. This planet is large and has a gigantic tree in the middle of it. There are several Banandelions, honey on the tree and a river of water in the way of scenery on the planet.
{{br}}


Mario will get a letter from Luigi to rescue him here. Mario must either shoot him with a Star Bit or use Bee Mario in order to get him down and receive a Power Star.

Planets/Areas[edit]

Starting Planet[edit]

The title of this section is conjectural; an official name for the section's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an official name is found, then the section should be changed to its appropriate title.

Mario landing on the Starting Planet.

The first Planet that Mario visits contains many Honeybees, Ruby Rocks, Slurples, and on occasion Mandibugs. The first Bee Mushroom is located on this planet. There are also Flipbugs on this planet, as well as a large waterfall in the middle. The area behind the waterfall has a lot of honey on the ground which slows Mario down. A Launch Star at the end of this area will lead the player to the Flower Planet. The Toad Brigade and the first Power Star can be found on the top of a large tree here. During the second mission, Mario can use a Sproutle Vine to reach an area with a Sling Star, leading to another area with a button and a Wiggler around it. When Mario presses it, it leads to the side of the starting planet, an area with boxes on them and a Launch Star leading to the Hat Planets. The area can also be reached in other missions with skilled jumps, though the Launch Star is not present. In mission three, the Queen Bee is behind the water, asking for Mario's assistance. A Launch Star appears later on, taking Mario to the Bugaboom Planet.

There is a group of Star Bits to the immediate right of the starting area that form a large "M", in reference to Mario. There is another group of Star Bits in the Gold Leaf Galaxy that are in the same position as these Star Bits (mirror-wise, of course), which form a large "L", in reference to Luigi.

The Observation Deck is a wooden platform with three stories, which only exists in the Trouble on the Tower mission. The mini-boss and Power Star of Trouble on the Tower are found here. Mario must use a swing here to get across the pit. At the bottom of this pit, a trampoline can be found. If Mario falls into the pit, there is a Life Mushroom guarded by two Mandibugs on the bottom level of the observation deck. Two trampolines can be used to get Mario up to the second level, which also has two Mandibugs and two walls for Mario to wall jump, so that he can get to the third level. In the third level, Mario must ground pound a button while avoiding another Mandibug. After doing so, the windmill starts, and helps Mario reach the mini-boss, a Mandibug Stack.

Flower Planet[edit]

The title of this section is conjectural; an official name for the section's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an official name is found, then the section should be changed to its appropriate title.

Flowerplanet.png

This planet contains many floating flower platforms. The bottom of the planet is full of lily pads floating in water that work as landing spots for Bee Mario. Several rock-spitting Octoguys, a Flipbug, and some Piranha Plants reside around the edges of the pond. Mario must reach the spinning flower platforms floating above this planet by using the Banandelions and the Bee Mushroom. In the middle of the floating flower platforms is a gigantic flower platform, above which is a Launch Star that takes Mario to the Queen Bee Planet when used. In between the flower platforms, several fountains are found, which continually blast water into the air and will turn Bee Mario back into Mario if he is hit.

Queen Bee Planet[edit]

The title of this section is conjectural; an official name for the section's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an official name is found, then the section should be changed to its appropriate title.

Honeyhive Galaxy and Queen Bee
The Queen Bee planet.

This planet is what the Honeybees call the "Queen's castle". The Queen Bee and some Honeybees occur here. This planet starts with a honey wall. At the bottom of the wall, a Honeybee and a Piranha Plant can be found. To climb up the wall, Mario must run into it and go upwards. It requires one jump and fly period and the rest is climbing. There are some optional jump and fly periods for shortcuts, coins, 1-Up Mushrooms, etc. At the very top of the wall, a Piranha Plant can be seen holding down a sproutle. When Mario defeats it, it releases the sproutle, which brings Mario right in front of Queen Bee. Queen Bee is hovering in the middle of the Queen Bee planet. The Queen Bee Planet is filled with water and has a rim of ground going around it. It is possible to stick to Queen Bee and climb around her.

Mushroom Twin Planets[edit]

The title of this section is conjectural; an official name for the section's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an official name is found, then the section should be changed to its appropriate title.

The Mushroom Twin Planets[2] are two planets which twist around. They have many enemies. Several Piranha Plants are on the top mushroom planet, which Mario can defeat in order to receive star bits and coins. Then he must proceed to the bottom of the planet. Once there, Mario can jump and land in a ring of star bits on the second planet, which contains two Wigglers. At the bottom of this planet, a Launch Star can be found, which leads to the Mushroom Twin planets Planet.

Tubed Relay Planet[edit]

The title of this section is conjectural; an official name for the section's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an official name is found, then the section should be changed to its appropriate title.

Honeyhive Galaxy3.png

The Tubed Relay Planet[3] is shaped like a rattle with, as the name suggests - a hollowed out "tubed" tree trunk as the handle. There is also a large bulb at the top. On the bulb at the top, many Piranha Plants are found. Defeating them will give Mario star bits or coins. A ? Coin is found nearby, which releases a Rainbow Star so that Mario can defeat all the Piranha Plants.

Bugaboom Planet[edit]

The title of this section is conjectural; an official name for the section's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an official name is found, then the section should be changed to its appropriate title.

Honeyhive Galaxy5.png

Bugaboom is fought here. When Mario arrives at the planet, two platforms are found, each one with a Banandelion. The first one also has a Bee Mushroom, and the second platform has three coins. Mario must use the Bee Mushroom to reach the Banandelions and then fly on to the next platform. This planet is large and has a gigantic tree in the middle of it.
