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

{{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.
 
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 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.
 
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.

=====Boulder planet=====
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
[[File:Boulder Planet.png|200px|thumb|The Boulder planet]]
The Boulder planet is a peanut shaped planet with lots of [[mud]] and [[Boulder]]s in "Dino Piranha" and "Luigi on the Roof". However, in "Dino Piranha Speed Run", the boulders are replaced by [[Chain Chomp|Chomp]]s. [[Mario]] can either dodge or destroy the Boulders with his [[Spin]], but he cannot hurt the Chomps.


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.
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.  


==Planets==
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}}


=== Starting Planet ===
=====Bean planet=====
[[Image:Cosmic_Blooper.jpg|thumb|left|2 Electrogoombas on the Starting Planet.]]
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
The Starting Planet has two sides. One is green with a house on it and two groups of flowers where the player can get [[Star Bit]]s. This side has some [[Electrogoomba]]s, with Coins and Star Bits in the little bushes. It also an orange pipe on the roof of the house, which will lead the player inside of it. In here, the player will find 4 yellow circles which will make a coin come out of it if a Star Bit is shot at the yellow circle. In the center of these four circles, a [[? Coin]] that will make [[Rainbow Note]]s appear will be here. The underground theme from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' will play if the player collects these Rainbow Notes. A 1-Up Mushroom will be awarded to the player if they collect all the notes on time. The other side is dark and has a tower on it, with an orange pipe that will lead the player into the house on the brighter side, a green pipe which will also lead the player to the other side, aswell as many Star Bits and coins scattered everywhere on the dark side of the planet, and the dry trees which are also on the darker side too.
[[File:SMG Bean Planet.png|200px|thumb|left|The bean-like planet]]
The bean 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.


===Boulder Planet===
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.
This 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 using his [[Star Spin]]. To access a Launch Star, Mario must get five [[Star Chips]] here. It has a different color appearance when it is first seen, but it ends up appearing with a recolor in the final version of the game. It was originally supposed to be blue.


===Flatland Planet===
Many planets similar to this one can be found in other galaxies and in early versions of the game.
The Flatland Planet has a [[Piranha Plant]] which will sprout a [[vine]] when defeated. It will also have some [[Swoopin' Poink]]s that will try and suck the player's health. Also, on the other side of this planet is a [[? Coin]]., which will make Star Bits appear in a trail leading to the Piranha Plant, and will be in the shape of the vine that will come out once the Piranha Plant is defeated.
{{br}}


===Bitten Apple Planet===
=====Bitten Apple planet=====
This planet, as its name states, resembles a green Bitten Apple. There are [[Boulder]]s rolling all over the planet, and a large purple Piranha Plant on the top. There is a black hole in the middle of this planet. If the player chooses to go right, they can access the Flip Switch Planet. Coins will be placed at area where the boulders won't roll to, and some Swoopin' Poinks will be around this planet. The purple Piranha Plant can be defeated by either [[Jump]]ing or [[Ground-Pound]]ing it's head, or by using a Star Spin on the green plant to make it stretch out and hit the Piranha Plant.

}}
The Bitten Apple planet, as its name indicates, resembles a green bitten apple, and marks a [[checkpoint]]. There are boulders rolling all over the planet, and a large purple Piranha Plant on the top. In "Dino Piranha Speed Run", the boulders are replaced with Chomps. In the middle of the planet, there is a [[black hole]], which will make 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.


===Flip Switch Planet===
On this planet, the player can advance to the very end of the planet to battle a [[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.
A planet covered in [[Flip Switch]]es. It can be accesed when the player goes to the right of the Bitten Apple planet, and defeats the Piranha Plant inside the pipe. The player will have to activate all the Flip Switches to move on to the next part of the planet. If the player falls off of a Flip Switch, they will be sucked into the black hole. If the player completes the planet by activating  all the switches, they will get a [[1-Up Mushroom]].  
{{br}}


===Block-Climb Planet===
=====Flipswitch planet=====
After the player launches off the Bitten Apple planet, they will be in the Block-Climb planet. This planet will have a rolling [[Chain Chomp|Chomp]], some Electrogoombas, and a Bill Blaster. There is nothing on this planet except for the enemies, and coins scattered ontop of blocks and platforms. A Launch Star is at the center of it, which will take the player to the Geo Planet.
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
[[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}}


===Geo Planet===  
=====Block-Climb planet=====
[[Image:Geoplanet.jpg|thumb|left|The '''Geo Planet''' with the Dino Piranha's egg hatching.]]
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
The Geo Planet is a small planet where the Dino Piranha boss is fought. It is made of gravel and rock with patches of grass sticking out, much like a simple ball of earth mixed up together. There are [[Item Crystal]]s on it with a few Coins and Star Bits inside of them. Once Dino Piranha is defeated, the player will be awarded with a Power Star.
[[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}}


===Pear Planet===
=====Dino Geo planet=====
This Pear-shaped Planet has a few Goombas on it and a Launch Star that will take the player to the Rock Planet. There are also some spikes on the Pear Planet, and a few Item Crystals.
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
[[File:Geoplanet.png|200px|thumb|left|Mario about to initiate hatching of [[Dino Piranha]]]]
The Dino Geo planet is a small round planet that is the last planet visited in the levels "Dino Piranha" and "Dino Piranha Speed Run". [[Dino Piranha]] is fought on this planet.


===Rock 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.
This planet is a rock with [[boulder]]s moving all around it. The rock planet also has more crystals, a ? block, and a Launch Star that will take Mario to the Egg Planet. There are no enemies here. There is also a [[Sling Star]] here that Mario can use to reach a coin.
{{br}}


===Egg Planet===  
=====Pear planet=====
[[Image:Egg planet.PNG|thumb|right|200px|The Egg Planet from a bird's eye view.]]
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
This planet resembles a [[Yoshi Egg]]. This planet can only be found in two levels, which are "A Snack of Cosmic Proportions", and "Purple Coin Omelet". The Egg Planet will have Item Crystals which will contain Star Bits. Also, many Goombas will wander the planet too.
[[File:Pear Planet.png|200px|thumb|A pear-looking planetoid]]
The Pear planet is a pear-shaped planet 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}}


===Tower Planet===
=====Rock planet=====
This planet requires jumping up cliffs to reach the top. It is full of Spiny and Round Bushes and only appears after the [[Hungry Luma]] is fed 100 Star Bits.
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
[[File:Rock Planet.png|200px|thumb|left|The Rock planet]]
The Rock planet is a giant red rock with Boulders rolling all over it. It is accessible via a Launch Star in the Pear planet. The Launch Star on this planet takes Mario to the Egg planet (or the Pear planet). Like the previous planet, the rock planet also has some Crystals and a [[? Block]]. There is also a [[Sling Star]] that can launch Mario into a coin.
{{br}}


=====Egg planet=====
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
[[File:Egg Planet.png|thumb|200px|The Egg planet from a bird's eye view]]
The Egg planet is a planet that resembles a giant [[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 Rock planet). This planet is accessible via the Launch Star on the Rock planet.


===Pill Planet===
On this planet, there is a [[Hungry Luma]] that transforms into a new planet when fed 100 Star Bits.
[[Image:Pillplanet.jpg|thumb|left|An obstacle-filled part of the Pill Planet.]]
{{br}}
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.  


===Star Planet===
=====Tower planet=====
The last planet of the second star, Which resembles a [[Sling Star]]. To get to the star, the player must collect Blue Star Chips to create some Pull Stars. Then Mario must use [[Pull Star]]s to get to the Power Star in the center of the Star Planet. Or, Mario can simply [[Long Jump]] to the Star.
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
[[File:SMG Tower Planet.png|200px|thumb|left|The Tower planet]]
The Tower 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 Pill planet.


===Tropic Planets===
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 Planet before getting added.
A pair of planets in Star 3, both involving coconuts. The first planet has some spiky plants, and Mario has to destroy the larger one to get to the next planet. A [[Sling Star]] appears and takes Mario to the second, which has a Pokey on the top. When it surfaces, Mario kicks a coconut at it and finds a Launch Star. Both planets have Goombas, crates and palm trees.
{{br}}


===Water Planets===
=====Pill planet=====
These are small planet that surround the tropic planets. They are either completely water or have a small sand core. They are unaccessable and the player only sees them when Mario soars past them. But, through hacking the player can visit them. These act like a regular planet because they have there own gravity field.
{{conjecture|section=yes}}

}}
The Pill planet is the biggest planet in the Good Egg Galaxy. It is shaped like a giant transparent pill 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. It resembles a [[Capsule]].


===Saucer Planet===
This planet is reached via the Launch Star on the tower 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 planet.
The Saucer Planet has Yellow blocks on it, some Electrogoombas, Chomps, and Bill Blasters. To get the Launch Star, Mario must avoid the enemies and go to the top of the planet, right above the Bill Blasters, and destroy the Item Crystal. This takes him to the Airships.
{{br}}


===Airships===
=====Star planet=====
There are two airships here, both commanded by King Kaliente. To get to the second one, Mario must wait until the enemies on the airship throw coconuts at him. Then, the player must Star-Spin the coconuts back at them to defeat them and to open the bridge. The second airship has many Electrogoombas and a Launch Star to the Magma Planet.
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
[[File:Star Planet.png|200px|thumb|left|The Star 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}}


===Asteroid Planet===
=====Tropic planets=====
A planet before the Magma Planet or the Airships. There are 2 Chomps going around it. The player can go inside the pipe here, which will lead them to a small circular room with several [[Goomba]]s and a ? Coin which will make a [[Rainbow Star]] appear.
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
[[File:SMG Tropic Planets.png|200px|thumb|The Tropic planets.]]
The Tropic 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 Tropic 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 Tropic planet is accessed by blasting off the Starting Planet in "King Kaliente's Battle Fleet".


===Magma Planet===  
=====Water planets=====
[[Image:Magmaplanet.jpg|thumb|screen|right|Mario on the '''Magma Planet''', after defeating King Kaliente.]]
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
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. It resembles a chocolate donut.
[[File:SMG Good Egg Water Planets.png|200px|thumb|left|The seven inaccessible water planets.]]
The water planets are small rocks in the sky surrounded by water which float all around the Tropic 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 Tropical Planets.


==Enemies==  
=====Asteroid planet=====
*[[Goomba]]s
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
*[[Electrogoomba]]s
[[File:Asteroid Planet.png|200px|thumb]]
*[[Swoopin' Poink]]s  
The Asteroid 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 and a [[Rainbow Star]]. In the early version of the game, there were several planets similar to this planet.
*[[Pokey]]s  
{{br}}
*[[Boulder]]s
*[[Piranha Plant]]s
*[[Moneybag]]s
*[[ Incoming Chomp | Chomp]]s
*[[Bullet Bill]]s


==Levels==
=====Chomp Saucer planet=====
===Dino Piranha===
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
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]].

}}
The Chomp Saucer planet is a large grass-covered planet that is accessed from the Tropic 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.
{{br}}


===A Snack of Cosmic Proportions===
=====Octopus [[airship]]s=====
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 noting the Blue Arrows move the player down by gravity, while Red Arrows move them up. Note that if the player crosses the moving platform, they can get two [[Coins]] and a [[1-Up Mushroom]]. 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.
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
[[File:SMG Kaliente Airship.png|200px|thumb|left]]
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 Chomp Saucer 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.


===King Kaliente's Battle Fleet===
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 Octo Magma planet.
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 orange 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, but if the player decides to stay on the planet they can enter a pipe to an area with a [[Rainbow Star]] and lots of Goombas. The player must carefully avoid the walls of the next planet 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. The player can defeat [[King Kaliente]] by repeatedly spinning back the coconuts he shoots at Mario.

===Dino Piranha Speed Run (Speedy Comet)===
=====Octo Magma planet=====
Identical to 'Dino Piranha', but with a time limit of four minutes. Boulders have been replaced with Chomps.

[[File:SMG Magma Planet.png|200px|thumb|Mario on the Octo Magma planet]]
The Octo Magma planet is an extremely large stone [[UFO]]-like 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.


===Purple Coin Omelet (Purple Comet)===
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 Tropic 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, it is drained of its lava.
In this level, the player has to collect 100 purple coins to get the Power Star in the area of the 3 planets before the tablet-like planet in the 'Snack of Cosmic Portportions'with out the [[Hungry Luma]] planet. Mario must traverse through the galaxy and collect these coins using launch stars. Unlike most other Purple Comet missions (with the exception of [[Gold Leaf Galaxy|Purple Coins in the Woods]]), the coins here follow a linear path - simply follow the trail of coins on the first planet, take the Launch Star, take the Launch Star in midair on the way, follow the path of coins on the second planet, etc. If the player repeats this process a few times, they will have collected every coin and will land right next to the [[Power Star]].

===Luigi on the Roof===
====Enemies====
Shortly after Mario rescues his brother [[Luigi]] in the first mission of the [[Ghostly Galaxy]], [[Mailtoad]] will inform Mario that Luigi has sent him a letter saying he is lost, with an enclosed picture of his whereabouts. The player can work out that Luigi is in the Good Egg Galaxy. To clear this hidden Star mission, the player must enter the mission Dino Piranha (after receiving the aforementioned letter) and reach the top of the mushroom hut on the first planet. The easiest method of reaching the top is simply doing a [[Triple Jump]] and Star Spin on top of it, but another way is to walk around to the underside of the planet and enter the orange [[Warp Pipe]] there. After traversing the room, possibly gaining a [[1-up]] from collecting [[Music Note]]s, the player can jump through another orange Pipe and emerge on the top of the Hut. Luigi will give Mario the Star and the mission will be completed.

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]

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.

“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.

Boulder 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.

The Boulder planet

The Boulder planet is a peanut shaped planet with lots of mud and Boulders in "Dino Piranha" and "Luigi on the Roof". However, in "Dino Piranha Speed Run", the boulders 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 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.

The bean-like planet

The bean 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]

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.

Bitten Apple Planet.png
An overview of the Bitten Apple planet.

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 boulders rolling all over the planet, and a large purple Piranha Plant on the top. In "Dino Piranha Speed Run", the boulders are replaced with Chomps. In the middle of the planet, there is a black hole, which will make 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 a 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 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 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 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 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.

Dino Geo 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 about to initiate hatching of Dino Piranha

The Dino Geo planet is a small round planet that is the last planet visited in the levels "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 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.

A pear-looking planetoid

The Pear planet is a pear-shaped planet 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.

Rock 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.

The Rock planet

The Rock planet is a giant red rock with Boulders rolling all over it. It is accessible via a Launch Star in the Pear planet. The Launch Star on this planet takes Mario to the Egg planet (or the Pear planet). Like the previous planet, the rock planet also has some Crystals and a ? Block. There is also a Sling Star that can launch Mario into a coin.

Egg 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.

Egg planet from Good Egg Galaxy
The Egg planet from a bird's eye view

The Egg planet is a planet that resembles a giant 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 Rock planet). This planet is accessible via the Launch Star on the Rock planet.

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

Tower 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.

The Tower planet

The Tower 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 Pill 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 Planet before getting added.

Pill 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.

Pillplanet.png

The Pill planet is the biggest planet in the Good Egg Galaxy. It is shaped like a giant transparent pill 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. It resembles a Capsule.

This planet is reached via the Launch Star on the tower 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 planet.

Star 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.

The Star 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.

Tropic 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 Tropic planets.

The Tropic 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 Tropic 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 Tropic planet is accessed by blasting off the Starting Planet in "King Kaliente's Battle Fleet".

Water 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 seven inaccessible Water Planets
The seven inaccessible water planets.

The water planets are small rocks in the sky surrounded by water which float all around the Tropic 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 Tropical Planets.

Asteroid 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.

Asteroid Planet.png

The Asteroid 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 and a Rainbow Star. In the early version of the game, there were several planets similar to this planet.

Chomp Saucer 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.

The Chomp Saucer planet is a large grass-covered planet that is accessed from the Tropic 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.

Octopus airships[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.

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 Chomp Saucer 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 Octo Magma planet.

Octo Magma planet[edit]

Mario on the Octo Magma planet

The Octo Magma planet is an extremely large stone UFO-like 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 Tropic 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, it is drained of its lava.

Image Name Description

GoodEggTradingCard.png A Planet in the Good Egg Galaxy All of Mario's missions in the Good Egg Galaxy start here. It's the first stop in a planet-hopping mission to complete a Launch Star. This planet is not all it seems however. Defy gravity by running from the sunny top to the dark and shadowy bottom. Watch for Electrogoombas while you collect Star Bits and Coins. Mario will visit this planet multiple times in his adventures to defeat bosses and acquire Power Stars—even to rescue his brother, Luigi!
TerraceGalaxiesTradingCard.png A Planet in the Terrace Galaxies Mario's second stop in the Good Egg Galaxy is this peanut-shaped planetoid that has several boulders rolling around the planet. He should also avoid running into their ruts, since they slow him to a snail's pace. The best way to handle these rumbling menaces is to spin into their red surface areas to destroy them.
Home2DinoTradingCard.png Home of Dino Pirahna Landing on this planet seems uneventful. That is, until Mario makes his way to the other side. He spies a giant walking egg with a tail sticking out—definitely something to be investigated. Spin Mario against the large ball on the end of the tail to crack open the shell. Out bursts Dino Piranha — the boss of this world, who Mario must battle to gain the first Power Star in the Good Egg Galaxy.

Fortune Street[edit]

  • Flag of the United States of America since July 4, 1960. For North American (and sometimes South American) release dates. "A capsule-shaped planet in the Good Egg Galaxy. You have to be very careful not to get lost there."

Music[edit]

Main article: Egg Planet
Help:MediaHaving trouble playing?

This galaxy's theme, titled "Egg Planet", is reused in the original game when Mario and Princess Peach are whisked away with the final Grand Star.

The music was later reused in the Grandmaster Galaxy mission "The Perfect Run" in Super Mario Galaxy 2, along with the music from Gusty Garden Galaxy, Bowser's Galaxy Reactor, and the Comet Observatory. A cover of the music can also be found in World 1's map after Green Star comets appear.

Part of Good Egg Galaxy's music returns in Mario Kart Wii's Rainbow Road music. An arrangement of Good Egg Galaxy's music appears as one of the selectable songs that can be played during events in Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games.

Both the original version of the song as well as a new arrangement by Noboku Toda are featured in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Trivia[edit]

  • The galaxy's level select model has a hemispherical grassy dirt planet that is not found anywhere in the galaxy. This planet actually goes unused within the files of Super Mario Galaxy, but textured with blue dirt instead of brown dirt. Its filename also indicates that the planet was made for Space Junk Galaxy, despite its presence in Good Egg Galaxy's level select model.
  • On some planets, such as the Chomp Saucer Planet, a multicolored cube planet can be seen in the distance out in space. It is actually the location in which the orange Warp Pipes on the Starting Planet lead to. An identical planet is visible in the Deep Dark Galaxy, while a similar spherical planet can be seen in the Toy Time Galaxy.
  • Gusty Garden Galaxy originally had Good Egg Galaxy's background.
