Tilting mushrooms,[1] also referred to as unstable mushrooms,[2] are Mushroom Platforms in the Super Mario series that debuted in New Super Mario Bros. Unlike stationary Mushroom Platforms or Seesaw Shrooms, tilting mushrooms sway back and forth all on their own. They typically appear in athletic sky-themed levels, in which their movements necessitate well-timed jumps. Tilting mushrooms are of varying widths and heights, and their overall design is different between titles.
History[edit]
New Super Mario Bros.[edit]
Tilting mushrooms appear throughout New Super Mario Bros. They can be used to reach distant or heightened platforms, collect Star Coins, and find secrets. The way they tilt impacts the trajectory of launched Koopa Shells that slide along their caps. In this game, they are the same colors as most static Mushroom Platforms: red orange caps with yellow spots.
Tilting mushrooms first appear in the sky-themed World 1-3 alongside static Mushroom Platforms and Mushroom Trampolines. They subsequently occur in World 2-2 and World 3-2. They are present in prerelease material.
New Super Mario Bros. Wii[edit]
Unstable mushrooms occur only in World 8-1 in New Super Mario Bros. Wii. They have dull purple caps with white spots, and a helix of stripes around their stalk. Unlike the first New Super Mario Bros., these mushrooms are low to the ground and in a lava-themed level with volcanic debris falling from the sky. Some grow directly out of the lava. The caps of the unstable mushrooms intercept the debris and can be stood under to avoid contact, but their movements make protection inconsistent. Unless they are in their Propeller form, the first Star Coin in the level can only be reached by the player character if they jump off the edge of a very wide unstable mushroom as it tilts to the left.
New Super Mario Bros. 2[edit]
In New Super Mario Bros. 2, tilting mushrooms occur in the sky-themed World 1-4 and the snow-themed World 4-4. The are physically identical to normal Mushroom Platforms, but the caps are always pink with white spots. The way the mushrooms tilt allow Mario (or Luigi) to reach ? Blocks, coins, Gold Rings, and Star Coins, as well as cross gaps. Tilting mushrooms are the only platforms in one of World 1-4's sub-areas, where the level's second Star Coin is. In World 4-4, they are one of the only platforms other than static Mushroom Platforms and Scale Lifts available.
New Super Mario Bros. U / New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe[edit]
Tilting mushrooms appear only in Mushroom Heights and Wiggler Stampede in New Super Mario Bros. U. In this game, they have spots slightly lighter than their caps and a helix of stripes around their stalks, similar to New Super Mario Bros. Wii. The ones in Mushroom Heights are turquoise, whereas the ones in Wiggler Stampede are a dull purple.
In Mushroom Heights, tilting mushrooms appear alongside normal Mushroom Platforms and pink ones that move up and down, high in the sky. Flowers grow out of the caps of some of the wider ones. The tilting mushrooms provide allow the player character to collect Hidden Coins and reach taller Mushroom Platforms at the furthest extremes of their tilts. Balloon Baby Yoshis can be used to navigate the level without being too reliant on these platforms. The ones in Wiggler Stampede grow out of Poison Bogs.
Tilting mushrooms appear unaltered in New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe. They are one of the few objects in the New Super Mario Bros. U campaign to not appear in New Super Luigi U, though their design is inherited by Mushroom Platforms that move up and down in the level Piranha Heights.
