'''Good Egg Galaxy''' is a cosmic location in the [[Super Mario (franchise)|''Super Mario'' franchise]], first appearing in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''.


The '''Good Egg Galaxy''' is the second [[galaxy]] [[Mario]] must venture to in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. It is the first galaxy within the [[Terrace]] dome. It is a galaxy which, unlike many of the others in the game, does not have a set theme such as ice or fire. Rather, it mainly consists of multiple small planetoids and a variety of different themes that usually contradict each other. Because of this, it is arguably the most 'true' galaxy with a pure space theme. The galaxy starts on a planet with a garden and a house on top and a castle at the bottom. [[Dino Piranha]] and [[King Kaliente]] are fought in this galaxy.
==History==
===''Super Mario Galaxy''===
Good Egg Galaxy is the second [[galaxy]] of ''Super Mario Galaxy''. It is the first level within the [[Terrace (Super Mario Galaxy)|Terrace]] dome. Most of the planets in this galaxy are lush and grassy, with some of them resembling food. [[Dino Piranha]] and [[King Kaliente]] are the bosses in this galaxy. Good Egg Galaxy has the most planets out of any other galaxy in the two ''Super Mario Galaxy'' games, having 19 accessible planets in total. The name of this galaxy is most likely a pun on "good egg", which means a reliable and pleasant person. Five planets from this galaxy are also included on the game cover.


==Planets==
The original E3 demo and gameplay footage mostly featured segments from Good Egg Galaxy, along with a mixed-in level from [[Space Junk Galaxy]]. The galaxy went through a few revisions before its final version, mostly involving planets getting redesigned or removed, as seen in the GDC 2007 Trailer. In the E3 2007 build of ''Super Mario Galaxy'', Good Egg Galaxy was known as "Egg Planet Galaxy", which is its original Japanese name.


====Layout====
'''NOTE''': Most planets in ''Super Mario Galaxy'' are nameless. Unless otherwise noted, all headers are informal descriptors.
=====Starting planet=====
[[File:GEGMarioStart.png|250px|thumb|left|Mario beginning the [[Dino Piranha (mission)|Dino Piranha]] mission.]]
[[File:MarioPeachSMG.png|thumb|[[Mario]] and [[Princess Peach]] on the starting planet.]]
{{quote|Gone…for a long time. Need to get in? Use the pipe on the other side.|Readable door on the house}}
The starting planet is a multi-sided planet. The first side is sunny and contains [[Flower (Super Mario series)|flowers]], grasses and with [[Star Bit]]s and [[Coin]]s hidden in them. There is also a house with a [[tree]] on the right and two [[Octoomba|Electrogoomba]]s guarding the area. There are two bridges, one on each side, that leads to the second side of the planet. Inside the house, there is a [[? Coin]] which releases several [[note]]s. After collecting all of the notes, a [[1-Up Mushroom]] will appear. In "Luigi on the Roof", [[Luigi]] is located on top of the house.


=== Starting Planet ===
The other side of the planet has many dead trees with Star Bits on their branches and a constant rain of them coming down from above. In the center of the planet, there is a giant tower with a special side without [[gravity]] and allows Mario to walk up it. At the end of the side, there is an Electrogoomba.
[[image:Cosmic_Blooper.jpg|thumb|left|2 Electrogoombas on the Starter Planet.]]
The Starter Planet has two sides. One is green with a house on it, and the other is dark and has a tower on it. On the tower side the player can get lots of [[Star Bits]].


===Pill Planet===
In various levels, there will be [[Launch Star]]s placed in three different locations. In the missions "Dino Piranha", "Dino Piranha Speed Run" and "Luigi on the Roof", it can be found at the top of the tower and leads to the Boulder planet. In "A Snack of Cosmic Proportions" and "Purple Coin Omelet", the Launch Star is located at the top of three [[Pull Star]]s at the end of a stone walkway next to the tower. This leads to a maze of three planets, being the Pear planet, the Rock planet, and the Egg planet. Finally, in "King Kaliente's Battle Fleet", the Launch Star is on top of the house on the sunnier side of the planet and leads to the Tropic planets.
[[image:Pillplanet.jpg|thumb|left|An obstacle-filled part of the Pill Planet.]]
The Pill Planet is shaped like a giant, transparent pill. It contains many obstacles and items, mainly [[Coin]]s and [[Item Crystal]]s. Atop the towering planet is a [[Launch Star]] that [[Mario]] can use to break out of the Pill Planet's glassy surface. This planet contains a 2D platforming area with variable gravity.  


===Magma Planet===  
In early versions of the game, the planet looked drastically different. It had a more realistic house, a pine tree instead of a regular tree, and no stairwell leading up to the twisty walkway.
[[image:Magmaplanet.jpg|thumb|screen|right|Mario on the '''Magma Planet''', after defeating King Kaliente.]]
{{multiple image
This is where the boss battle against King Kaliente takes place. It consists of a hot lava pool with a shiny tar-like ring of ground around it. The rest of the planet is just simple hot rock. The planet is quite big compared to others like the Tropic Planet, since it needs to have a decently large size for the fight to be held. Underneath the Magma Planet is a rocky area with yellow rings on it like a target.

=====Peanut-shaped planet=====
[[File:Boulder Planet.png|200px|thumb|The peanut-shaped planet]]
The peanut-shaped planet is covered in [[mud]] and [[Boulder|Ruby Rock]]s in "Dino Piranha" and "Luigi on the Roof". During "Dino Piranha Speed Run", the Ruby Rocks are replaced by [[Chain Chomp|Chomps]]. [[Mario]] can either dodge or destroy the Boulders with his [[Spin]], but he cannot hurt the Chomps.
 
To get here, Mario must take a launch star from the starting planet. Mario must collect the five [[Star Chip]]s found on the planet to create a Launch Star that takes Mario to the Bean planet.
 
This planet had a different color appearance when it was first seen, but it ends up appearing with a recolor in the final version of the game. It was originally supposed to be blue.
{{br}}
 
=====Bean-shaped planet=====
 
[[File:SMG Bean Planet.png|200px|thumb|left|The bean-shaped planet]]
The bean-shaped planet is a small, grassy planet with one [[Piranha Plant]] and a few [[Slurple]]s. On the bottom side of the planet, there is a [[? Coin]] which creates many Star Bits leading back to the Piranha Plant.
 
Mario can reach this planet via the Launch Star from the Boulder planet. Mario can stomp or spin the Piranha Plant to defeat it. After being defeated, the Piranha Plant will release a [[Sproutle Vine]], which allows Mario to climb to the Bitten Apple planet.
 
Many planets similar to this one can be found in other galaxies and in early versions of the game.
{{br}}
 
=====Bitten-apple planet=====

|caption1=An overview of the bitten-apple planet.
|image2=SMG Spiny Piranha Plant.png
|caption2=Mario finds a [[Spiny Piranha Plant]] on the planet.
}}
The bitten-apple planet, as its name indicates, resembles a green bitten apple, and marks a [[checkpoint]]. There are Ruby Rocks rolling all over the planet, and a large [[Spiny Piranha Plant]] on the top. In "Dino Piranha Speed Run", the Ruby Rocks are replaced with Chomps. In the middle of the planet, there is a [[black hole]] that makes Mario lose a life if he falls into it. If Mario stands on one of the bridges on the starting planet, he can see the bitten-apple planet and the Flipswitch planet. If Mario turns to a certain angle he can see a pipe but oddly, if he turns the other way, it disappears.
 
On this planet, the player can advance to the very end of the planet to battle the Spiny Piranha Plant, which will release a [[Sproutle]] Vine to the block-climb planet. The player can also go across a shrinking platform to use a [[Warp Pipe]] with a Piranha Plant in it to reach the Flipswitch planet.
{{br}}
 
=====Flipswitch planet=====
[[File:Flip Switch Planet.png|200px|thumb|left|The Flipswitch planet]]
The Flipswitch planet is a planet covered in [[Flipswitch Panel]]s. It also has a few red [[lift]]s with [[Spike Trap|spikes]] on the sides that can hurt Mario, but he can also use them to carry him across the planet. This planet can be accessed via a [[Warp Pipe]] in the Bitten Apple planet. If Mario presses all of the Flipswitch Panels in the first area, the panels in the second area will appear. After activating all of them, a [[Launch Star]] leading to the Block-Climb planet will appear. This planet plays the Space Fantasy music.
{{br}}
 
=====Block-climb planet=====
[[File:Block Climb Planet.png|200px|thumb|The block-climb planet]]
The block-climb planet is a planet that can be accessed by either launching off a Launch Star in the Flipswitch planet or by taking the Sproutle Vine that comes out of the Spiny Piranha Plant on the bitten-apple planet. This planet marks a [[checkpoint]] and is a grassy oval with three stone blocks on it, and there are some Electrogoombas that are guarding them. There are some coins on the stone blocks, which serve as steps to the very top where a Launch Star can be found. This Launch Star takes Mario to the Dino-Geo planet. Behind the set of the three stone steps, there is a [[1-Up Mushroom]]. The planet also contains a [[Luma]] and several [[Tracks (enemy)|Tracks]].
{{br}}
 
=====Home of Dino Piranha=====
[[File:Geoplanet.png|200px|thumb|left|Mario about to initiate hatching of [[Dino Piranha]]]]
The '''Home of Dino Piranha'''<ref>[[:File:Home2DinoTradingCard.png|EnterPlay trading card]]</ref> is a small round planet and the last one visited during the missions "Dino Piranha" and "Dino Piranha Speed Run". [[Dino Piranha]] is fought on this planet.
 
The planet is a large brown oval with several yellow objects on the ground which releases coins when shot with Star Bits. There are several [[Crystal (Super Mario Galaxy)|crystal]]s with coins and star bits in them. On top of the planet is a giant egg that is automatically cracked open when Mario lands on the planet. Dino Piranha hatches, and the boss battle starts. After defeating Dino Piranha, a [[Power Star]] appears here. [[Boss Blitz Galaxy#Dino Piranha's Planet|A similar planet]] appears in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', in the [[Boss Blitz Galaxy]]. On that planet, Dino Piranha is fought once again as a returning boss.
{{br}}


===Egg Planet===  
=====Pear-shaped planet=====
[[Image:Egg planet.PNG|thumb|right|200px|Yoshi Egg Planet in the level "A Snack of Cosmic Proportions".]]
[[File:Pear Planet.png|200px|thumb|A pear-looking planetoid]]
One planet resembles a [[Yoshi Egg]]. This planet can be found in the mission known as A Snack of Cosmic Proportions, where a hungry [[Luma]] will await a feeding. There is also a green planet and a red planet which are part of a circle of launch stars with the Yoshi Egg Planet in ''A Snack of Cosmic Proportions''
The pear-shaped planet is covered in grass that appears in "A Snack of Cosmic Proportions" and "Purple Coin Omelet". There are several [[Star Bit]]s in the Crystals found on the planet along with a few [[Goomba]]s and [[thorny flower|prickly plant]]s. A Launch Star that takes Mario to the Rock planet (or the Egg Planet) can be found here.
{{br}}


===Geo Planet===  
=====Boulder-shaped planet=====
[[image:Geoplanet.jpg|thumb|left|The '''Geo Planet''' with the Dino Piranha's egg hatching.]]
[[File:Rock Planet.png|200px|thumb|left|The Rock planet]]
The Geo Planet is a small planet where the Dino Piranha boss is battled. it is made of gravel and rock with hints of grass sticking out, much like a simple ball of earth mixed up together. There are Item Crystals on it with a few Coins in them.
The boulder-shaped planet is a red craggy planet with Ruby Rocks rolling all over it. It is accessible via a Launch Star in the pear-shaped planet. The Launch Star on this planet takes Mario to the Egg Planet (or the pear-shaped planet). Like the previous planet, the boulder-shaped planet has some Crystals and a [[? Block]]. There is also a [[Sling Star]] that can launch Mario into a coin.
{{br}}


===Boulder Planet===  
=====Egg Planet=====
It is a yellow planet that resembles a peanut with little grooves where the boulders have been rolling. It has about 6 boulders that Mario must dodge and or break. It had a different color appearance when it was first seen, but it ended up appearing with a recolor in the final version of the game. It was originally blue.
[[File:Egg Planet.png|thumb|200px|The Egg Planet from a bird's eye view]]
The '''Egg Planet'''<ref>{{cite|author=[[Mario Galaxy Orchestra]]|title=''[[Super Mario Galaxy Original Soundtrack]]''|archive=vgmdb.net/album/18649|archiver=VGMdb|publisher=[[Nintendo|Nintendo of Europe GmbH]]|date=31 Jan. 2008}}</ref> is ovoid and closely resembles a [[Yoshi's Egg]]. There are many Goombas on the planet. There are also several crystals that are found on the planet. The Launch Star on this planet leads back to the Pear planet (or the boulder-shaped planet). This planet is accessible via the Launch Star on the boulder-shaped planet.


===Star Planet===
On this planet, there is a [[Hungry Luma]] that transforms into a new planet when fed 100 Star Bits.
The last planet of the second star, Which resembles a [[Sling Star]]. To get to the star, the player must use [[Pull Star]]s to get to the Power Star in the centre.
{{br}}


===Tower Planet===
=====Tower-shaped planet=====
This planet requires jumping up cliffs to reach the top.
[[File:SMG Tower Planet.png|200px|thumb|left|The tower-shaped planet]]
The tower-shaped planet is a planet that is made by the Hungry Luma on the Egg planet and is shaped like a giant mountain with many stone platforms on the other side. These platforms can help Mario jump up to get to the top. Prickly plants and Goombas are found on the planet. The flowers can be defeated by the [[rubbery bulb]]s. At the top of the stone platforms, there is a Launch Star that leads to the capsule-shaped planet.


===Flip Switch Planet===
An almost identical planet with the same name appears in the [[Yoshi Star Galaxy]] in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', the only differences being that the planet in that galaxy is already present, and there are bones on the planet in the second game. When Mario is very far from the planet, it appears as a different low-poly egg-shaped planet, which was likely originally in place of the tower-shaped before getting added.
A planet covered in flip switches. Complete the challenge for a 1-Up mushroom.

}}
The capsule-shaped planet is the largest planet in the Good Egg Galaxy. It is shaped like a giant vitamin capsule with many enemies and obstacles on the inside including different sections where the [[gravity]] is shifted around. Red goes away from the core, and blue goes towards it.


==Levels==
This planet is reached via the Launch Star on the tower-shaped planet, and marks a [[checkpoint]]. When Mario first arrives here, he will be on the transparent coating of the planet. He has to destroy the crystal to get inside. After making his way through the obstacles, another Launch Star will blast him through the glass and to the final planet of the mission; the star-shaped planet.
===Dino Piranha===
{{br}}
Mario starts this level on a planet with a grassy scene and a house on one side and a dark tower on the other side. At the top of the tower is a [[Sling Star]] which propels Mario into a Launch Star. This sends him to the Boulder Planet, where five [[Star Chip]]s are scattered. The player will have to dodge the boulders and collect the Star Chips to create a Launch Star. Mario lands on a small planet with a [[Piranha Plant]]. Mario must defeat the plant to make a [[sproutle]] grow. Mario must [[Star Spin]] up it. Next Mario must climb the stones on the next planet to the Launch Star. Mario will launch and slam into a giant egg, which will begin to move around. After Mario does a Star Spin on the ball on the end of it's tail, it will hit the egg and break it, revealing [[Dino Piranha]]. It must be defeated to get the [[star]].


===A Snack of Cosmic Proportions===
=====Star-shaped planet=====
This level involves feeding a [[Hungry Luma]] one hundred [[Star Bit]]s, so the player should pick up as many as possible. When Mario is exploring this planet, he must hop up the stone stairs on the tower side of the planet and he should talk to the blue Luma. It'll transform into [[Pull Star]]s which lead to a Launch Star. This leads Mario to a set of three planets connected by Launch Stars. The planet that resembles a Yoshi Egg is the one that has the the hungry Luma. Mario can use the Launch Stars to travel around the three planets as much as he wants to fulfill the Luma's quota of Star Bits. The player must talk to the hungry Luma after getting 100 Star Bits, and it'll explode with snacky happiness and create a new planet and Launch Star. The player must climb up the structure on this new planet to reach the Launch Star at the top, which will launch Mario to the Pill Planet. One of the crystals on this planet covers the entrance, so the player must smash it to get inside. The player will enter a 2D platforming area, so Mario must head through it carefully. The top of the planet contains a Launch Star. Mario will finally end up on a star-shaped structure with blue Star Chips and the Power Star in the middle. The player has to collect the blue Star Chips to create Pull Stars, which will aid Mario in grabbing the Power Star. The player could also use a long jump to get the star without collecting the blue star chips.
[[File:Star Planet.png|200px|thumb|left|The star-shaped planet]]
The last planet of the second mission, which resembles a Sling Star. Mario must collect Blue [[Star Chip]]s to create some Pull Stars. Mario must then use the Pull Stars to get to the [[Power Star]] in the center of the planet, though he can simply [[Long Jump]] and perform a [[Spin]] to get to the Star.
{{br}}


===King Kaliente's Battle Fleet===
=====Oasis-like planets=====
Mario starts on the same planet as he did on the previous two missions. The Launch Star is on the top of the house, and it is possible for the player to triple jump to the top of it, or else Mario can take the red Warp Pipe on the underside of the planet and traverse the boxy room to reach the Launch Star. The [[Toad]] on this planet tells Mario that the spiky plants hate coconuts. Mario will have to kick the coconuts into the plants, and one will reveal a Sling Star. The next planet has a large [[Pokey]], which can also be defeated by kicking a coconut at it, revealing a Launch Star. The next planet has a Sling Star which propels Mario to a planet full of electrical walls. The player must carefully avoid the walls to reach the other side of the planet, where cannons shoot [[Bullet Bill]]s. The Launch Star is in a crystal at the top of the structure on this planet. As Mario is launched onto a airship, two creatures will shoot coconuts at Mario from an adjacent airship. Mario will have to do a Star Spin to send the coconuts back at them to defeat them, which lowers the bridge between the two ships. The Launch Star on this airship that takes Mario to King Kaliente's planet.
[[File:SMG Tropic Planets.png|200px|thumb|The oasis-like planets.]]
The oasis-like planets are a pair of planets with prickly plants and [[coconut]]s that can be put to different uses depending on which planet Mario is on. The planets are made up of a combination of sand and grass with scattered palm trees and crates. On the first planet, there are multiple prickly plants which Mario can destroy with a coconut, but to access the next planet, he must destroy a [[giant prickly plant]] at the top to make a Sling Star appear. The second oasis-like planet has several Goombas and a [[Big Pokey|Pokeynut]]. When the Pokeynut comes to the surface, Mario must hit its head with a coconut or hit its body, which will destroy a body segment and lower its head closer to the ground. After doing this, a Launch Star will appear to send Mario to the Chomp Saucer planet. The first oasis-like planet is accessed by blasting off the Starting Planet in "King Kaliente's Battle Fleet".


===Dino Piranha Speed Run (Speedy Comet)===
=====Small ocean planets=====
This level is the same as the original Dino Piranha level, except that the player has to beat the mission in 4 minutes.
[[File:SMG Good Egg Water Planets.png|200px|thumb|left|The seven inaccessible water planets.]]
The small ocean planets are small rocks surrounded by [[water]] which float all around the oasis-like planets. They are inaccessible during the regular levels, but, through hacking, Mario can visit them as they have their own [[gravity]] field. Other than that, they are mostly for ambience while Mario soars past them on his way to the oasis-like planets.


===Purple Coin Omelet (Purple Comet)===
=====Asteroid-shaped planet=====
In this level, the player has to collect 100 purple coins to get the Power Star. Mario must traverse through the galaxy and collect these coins using launch stars.
[[File:Asteroid Planet.png|200px|thumb]]
The asteroid-shaped planet is a small, optional, planet accessible from the Chomp Saucer planet with two [[Chain Chomp]]s rolling around it. Mario can enter a Warp Pipe in this planet, which leads to the inside; a room with many [[Goomba]]s, [[Mini Goomba|Micro-Goomba]]s, and a [[Rainbow Star]]. In the early version of the game, there were several planets similar to this planet. If accessed outside of the mission it is normally visited through external means, the bonus room is not loaded, causing Mario to fall into space if he enters the pipe.
{{br}}


===Luigi on the Roof===
=====Saucer-shaped planet=====
After Mario saves [[Luigi]] from the [[Ghostly Galaxy]], Luigi will go to the Good Egg Galaxy to search for a Power Star. Shortly after, the [[Mailtoad]] informs Mario that Luigi is lost and shows Mario a picture of Luigi's location. Mario needs to go to the first misson of the Good Egg Galaxy and needs to save Luigi who is on the top of the roof of a house. Mario accomplishes this by going to the bottom side of the 2 sideded, bright and dark planet by jumping in the yellow [[Warp Pipe]], and then into the next yellow Warp Pipe. Luigi gives Mario his Power Star. You can also do a backflip or [[Triple Jump]] onto it.

}}
The saucer-shaped planet is a large grass-covered planet that is accessed from the oasis-like planets and has a crystal containing a Launch Star at the very end of it. This Launch Star leads to the airships. Enemies on this planet include Electrogoombas, [[Bill Blaster]]s, [[Chain Chomp|Chomp]]s in two sizes, [[Amp]]s and [[burner]]s. There are electric barriers placed throughout the planet that has to be crossed. Once Mario reaches the end, a Launch Star will take him to King Kaliente's fleet.

== Foreign Names ==
=====Airships=====
{{foreignname|
[[File:SMG Kaliente Airship.png|200px|thumb|left]]
|Jap=エッグプラネットギャラクシー<br>''Eggu Puranetto Gyarakushii''
There are two '''[[airship]]s''' floating in space which are both commanded by King Kaliente. The first airship is accessed from the Launch Star on the saucer-shaped planet, and marks a [[checkpoint]]. There are two [[Rocto]]s firing coconuts at it from the second ship. If Mario defeats both of them, the bridge is opened.
 
At the end of the bridge, there is a [[Sling Star]] that leads into the main section of the ship with several Electrogoombas. If Mario takes the Launch Star located on this ship, he will travel to the lava-filled planet.
{{br}}
 
=====King Kaliente's planet=====
[[File:SMG Magma Planet.png|200px|thumb|Mario on King Kaliente's planet]]
King Kaliente's planet is a large stone [[UFO]]-shaped planet with a pool of [[lava]] in the middle. In the level "King Kaliente's Battle Fleet", [[King Kaliente]] appears here as the boss. He emerges from the lava and fires coconuts and [[fireball]]s at Mario.
 
The planet is mostly made up of black tar and rock mixed together by the gigantic pool of hot lava in the middle. This planet is larger than other planets like the oasis-like planets. Underneath the Magma planet, there is a rocky area with yellow rings on it, similar to a target. This also resembles a chocolate donut. When the planet is not normally visited, the lava is not loaded, and since the "floor" of the pool is not rendered, the planet can be looked through from the top.

===''Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games''===

Good Egg Galaxy is a cosmic location in the Super Mario franchise, first appearing in Super Mario Galaxy.

History[edit]

Super Mario Galaxy[edit]

Good Egg Galaxy is the second galaxy of Super Mario Galaxy. It is the first level within the Terrace dome. Most of the planets in this galaxy are lush and grassy, with some of them resembling food. Dino Piranha and King Kaliente are the bosses in this galaxy. Good Egg Galaxy has the most planets out of any other galaxy in the two Super Mario Galaxy games, having 19 accessible planets in total. The name of this galaxy is most likely a pun on "good egg", which means a reliable and pleasant person. Five planets from this galaxy are also included on the game cover.

The original E3 demo and gameplay footage mostly featured segments from Good Egg Galaxy, along with a mixed-in level from Space Junk Galaxy. The galaxy went through a few revisions before its final version, mostly involving planets getting redesigned or removed, as seen in the GDC 2007 Trailer. In the E3 2007 build of Super Mario Galaxy, Good Egg Galaxy was known as "Egg Planet Galaxy", which is its original Japanese name.

Layout[edit]

NOTE: Most planets in Super Mario Galaxy are nameless. Unless otherwise noted, all headers are informal descriptors.

Starting planet[edit]

Mario and Princess Peach on the starting planet.
“Gone…for a long time. Need to get in? Use the pipe on the other side.”
—Readable door on the house

The starting planet is a multi-sided planet. The first side is sunny and contains flowers, grasses and with Star Bits and Coins hidden in them. There is also a house with a tree on the right and two Electrogoombas guarding the area. There are two bridges, one on each side, that leads to the second side of the planet. Inside the house, there is a ? Coin which releases several notes. After collecting all of the notes, a 1-Up Mushroom will appear. In "Luigi on the Roof", Luigi is located on top of the house.

The other side of the planet has many dead trees with Star Bits on their branches and a constant rain of them coming down from above. In the center of the planet, there is a giant tower with a special side without gravity and allows Mario to walk up it. At the end of the side, there is an Electrogoomba.

In various levels, there will be Launch Stars placed in three different locations. In the missions "Dino Piranha", "Dino Piranha Speed Run" and "Luigi on the Roof", it can be found at the top of the tower and leads to the Boulder planet. In "A Snack of Cosmic Proportions" and "Purple Coin Omelet", the Launch Star is located at the top of three Pull Stars at the end of a stone walkway next to the tower. This leads to a maze of three planets, being the Pear planet, the Rock planet, and the Egg planet. Finally, in "King Kaliente's Battle Fleet", the Launch Star is on top of the house on the sunnier side of the planet and leads to the Tropic planets.

In early versions of the game, the planet looked drastically different. It had a more realistic house, a pine tree instead of a regular tree, and no stairwell leading up to the twisty walkway.

Peanut-shaped planet[edit]
The peanut-shaped planet

The peanut-shaped planet is covered in mud and Ruby Rocks in "Dino Piranha" and "Luigi on the Roof". During "Dino Piranha Speed Run", the Ruby Rocks are replaced by Chomps. Mario can either dodge or destroy the Boulders with his Spin, but he cannot hurt the Chomps.

To get here, Mario must take a launch star from the starting planet. Mario must collect the five Star Chips found on the planet to create a Launch Star that takes Mario to the Bean planet.

This planet had a different color appearance when it was first seen, but it ends up appearing with a recolor in the final version of the game. It was originally supposed to be blue.

Bean-shaped planet[edit]
The bean-shaped planet

The bean-shaped planet is a small, grassy planet with one Piranha Plant and a few Slurples. On the bottom side of the planet, there is a ? Coin which creates many Star Bits leading back to the Piranha Plant.

Mario can reach this planet via the Launch Star from the Boulder planet. Mario can stomp or spin the Piranha Plant to defeat it. After being defeated, the Piranha Plant will release a Sproutle Vine, which allows Mario to climb to the Bitten Apple planet.

Many planets similar to this one can be found in other galaxies and in early versions of the game.

Bitten-apple planet[edit]
Bitten Apple Planet.png
An overview of the bitten-apple planet.
A Spiny Piranha Plant in the Good Egg Galaxy
Mario finds a Spiny Piranha Plant on the planet.

The bitten-apple planet, as its name indicates, resembles a green bitten apple, and marks a checkpoint. There are Ruby Rocks rolling all over the planet, and a large Spiny Piranha Plant on the top. In "Dino Piranha Speed Run", the Ruby Rocks are replaced with Chomps. In the middle of the planet, there is a black hole that makes Mario lose a life if he falls into it. If Mario stands on one of the bridges on the starting planet, he can see the bitten-apple planet and the Flipswitch planet. If Mario turns to a certain angle he can see a pipe but oddly, if he turns the other way, it disappears.

On this planet, the player can advance to the very end of the planet to battle the Spiny Piranha Plant, which will release a Sproutle Vine to the block-climb planet. The player can also go across a shrinking platform to use a Warp Pipe with a Piranha Plant in it to reach the Flipswitch planet.

Flipswitch planet[edit]
The Flipswitch planet

The Flipswitch planet is a planet covered in Flipswitch Panels. It also has a few red lifts with spikes on the sides that can hurt Mario, but he can also use them to carry him across the planet. This planet can be accessed via a Warp Pipe in the Bitten Apple planet. If Mario presses all of the Flipswitch Panels in the first area, the panels in the second area will appear. After activating all of them, a Launch Star leading to the Block-Climb planet will appear. This planet plays the Space Fantasy music.

Block-climb planet[edit]
The block-climb planet

The block-climb planet is a planet that can be accessed by either launching off a Launch Star in the Flipswitch planet or by taking the Sproutle Vine that comes out of the Spiny Piranha Plant on the bitten-apple planet. This planet marks a checkpoint and is a grassy oval with three stone blocks on it, and there are some Electrogoombas that are guarding them. There are some coins on the stone blocks, which serve as steps to the very top where a Launch Star can be found. This Launch Star takes Mario to the Dino-Geo planet. Behind the set of the three stone steps, there is a 1-Up Mushroom. The planet also contains a Luma and several Tracks.

Home of Dino Piranha[edit]
The "Geo Planet" from Super Mario Galaxy. This image shows all of the planet's features without Mario or the Dino Piranha trampling all over it. Grass, gravel, and an egg.
Mario about to initiate hatching of Dino Piranha

The Home of Dino Piranha[1] is a small round planet and the last one visited during the missions "Dino Piranha" and "Dino Piranha Speed Run". Dino Piranha is fought on this planet.

The planet is a large brown oval with several yellow objects on the ground which releases coins when shot with Star Bits. There are several crystals with coins and star bits in them. On top of the planet is a giant egg that is automatically cracked open when Mario lands on the planet. Dino Piranha hatches, and the boss battle starts. After defeating Dino Piranha, a Power Star appears here. A similar planet appears in Super Mario Galaxy 2, in the Boss Blitz Galaxy. On that planet, Dino Piranha is fought once again as a returning boss.

Pear-shaped planet[edit]
A pear-looking planetoid

The pear-shaped planet is covered in grass that appears in "A Snack of Cosmic Proportions" and "Purple Coin Omelet". There are several Star Bits in the Crystals found on the planet along with a few Goombas and prickly plants. A Launch Star that takes Mario to the Rock planet (or the Egg Planet) can be found here.

Boulder-shaped planet[edit]
The Rock planet

The boulder-shaped planet is a red craggy planet with Ruby Rocks rolling all over it. It is accessible via a Launch Star in the pear-shaped planet. The Launch Star on this planet takes Mario to the Egg Planet (or the pear-shaped planet). Like the previous planet, the boulder-shaped planet has some Crystals and a ? Block. There is also a Sling Star that can launch Mario into a coin.

Egg Planet[edit]
Egg planet from Good Egg Galaxy
The Egg Planet from a bird's eye view

The Egg Planet[2] is ovoid and closely resembles a Yoshi's Egg. There are many Goombas on the planet. There are also several crystals that are found on the planet. The Launch Star on this planet leads back to the Pear planet (or the boulder-shaped planet). This planet is accessible via the Launch Star on the boulder-shaped planet.

On this planet, there is a Hungry Luma that transforms into a new planet when fed 100 Star Bits.

Tower-shaped planet[edit]
The tower-shaped planet

The tower-shaped planet is a planet that is made by the Hungry Luma on the Egg planet and is shaped like a giant mountain with many stone platforms on the other side. These platforms can help Mario jump up to get to the top. Prickly plants and Goombas are found on the planet. The flowers can be defeated by the rubbery bulbs. At the top of the stone platforms, there is a Launch Star that leads to the capsule-shaped planet.

An almost identical planet with the same name appears in the Yoshi Star Galaxy in Super Mario Galaxy 2, the only differences being that the planet in that galaxy is already present, and there are bones on the planet in the second game. When Mario is very far from the planet, it appears as a different low-poly egg-shaped planet, which was likely originally in place of the tower-shaped before getting added.

Capsule-shaped planet[edit]
Pillplanet.png
An obstacle-filled section of the capsule-shaped planet.
Mario in the Good Egg Galaxy
The Launch Star in the top section of the capsule-shaped planet.

The capsule-shaped planet is the largest planet in the Good Egg Galaxy. It is shaped like a giant vitamin capsule with many enemies and obstacles on the inside including different sections where the gravity is shifted around. Red goes away from the core, and blue goes towards it.

This planet is reached via the Launch Star on the tower-shaped planet, and marks a checkpoint. When Mario first arrives here, he will be on the transparent coating of the planet. He has to destroy the crystal to get inside. After making his way through the obstacles, another Launch Star will blast him through the glass and to the final planet of the mission; the star-shaped planet.

Star-shaped planet[edit]
The star-shaped planet

The last planet of the second mission, which resembles a Sling Star. Mario must collect Blue Star Chips to create some Pull Stars. Mario must then use the Pull Stars to get to the Power Star in the center of the planet, though he can simply Long Jump and perform a Spin to get to the Star.

Oasis-like planets[edit]
The oasis-like planets.

The oasis-like planets are a pair of planets with prickly plants and coconuts that can be put to different uses depending on which planet Mario is on. The planets are made up of a combination of sand and grass with scattered palm trees and crates. On the first planet, there are multiple prickly plants which Mario can destroy with a coconut, but to access the next planet, he must destroy a giant prickly plant at the top to make a Sling Star appear. The second oasis-like planet has several Goombas and a Pokeynut. When the Pokeynut comes to the surface, Mario must hit its head with a coconut or hit its body, which will destroy a body segment and lower its head closer to the ground. After doing this, a Launch Star will appear to send Mario to the Chomp Saucer planet. The first oasis-like planet is accessed by blasting off the Starting Planet in "King Kaliente's Battle Fleet".

Small ocean planets[edit]
The seven inaccessible Water Planets
The seven inaccessible water planets.

The small ocean planets are small rocks surrounded by water which float all around the oasis-like planets. They are inaccessible during the regular levels, but, through hacking, Mario can visit them as they have their own gravity field. Other than that, they are mostly for ambience while Mario soars past them on his way to the oasis-like planets.

Asteroid-shaped planet[edit]
Asteroid Planet.png

The asteroid-shaped planet is a small, optional, planet accessible from the Chomp Saucer planet with two Chain Chomps rolling around it. Mario can enter a Warp Pipe in this planet, which leads to the inside; a room with many Goombas, Micro-Goombas, and a Rainbow Star. In the early version of the game, there were several planets similar to this planet. If accessed outside of the mission it is normally visited through external means, the bonus room is not loaded, causing Mario to fall into space if he enters the pipe.

Saucer-shaped planet[edit]
Saucer Planet Egg.png
The grassy side of the Chomp Saucer planet.

The Chomp Saucer planet's underside.

The saucer-shaped planet is a large grass-covered planet that is accessed from the oasis-like planets and has a crystal containing a Launch Star at the very end of it. This Launch Star leads to the airships. Enemies on this planet include Electrogoombas, Bill Blasters, Chomps in two sizes, Amps and burners. There are electric barriers placed throughout the planet that has to be crossed. Once Mario reaches the end, a Launch Star will take him to King Kaliente's fleet.

Airships[edit]
Airship

There are two airships floating in space which are both commanded by King Kaliente. The first airship is accessed from the Launch Star on the saucer-shaped planet, and marks a checkpoint. There are two Roctos firing coconuts at it from the second ship. If Mario defeats both of them, the bridge is opened.

At the end of the bridge, there is a Sling Star that leads into the main section of the ship with several Electrogoombas. If Mario takes the Launch Star located on this ship, he will travel to the lava-filled planet.

King Kaliente's planet[edit]
Mario on King Kaliente's planet

King Kaliente's planet is a large stone UFO-shaped planet with a pool of lava in the middle. In the level "King Kaliente's Battle Fleet", King Kaliente appears here as the boss. He emerges from the lava and fires coconuts and fireballs at Mario.

The planet is mostly made up of black tar and rock mixed together by the gigantic pool of hot lava in the middle. This planet is larger than other planets like the oasis-like planets. Underneath the Magma planet, there is a rocky area with yellow rings on it, similar to a target. This also resembles a chocolate donut. When the planet is not normally visited, the lava is not loaded, and since the "floor" of the pool is not rendered, the planet can be looked through from the top.

Enemies[edit]

Another cube planet is visible in the Deep Dark Galaxy (mainly in the third mission), while a similar spherical planet can be seen in the Toy Time Galaxy. In most galaxies, these are hidden behind small skyboxes (as is the case with the Deep Dark Galaxy's first two missions), larger planets, or simply a large enough distance to keep them from rendering.
  • Gusty Garden Galaxy originally had Good Egg Galaxy's background.
