The '''Freezeflame Galaxy''' is one of the five [[Bedroom]] galaxies in the game ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. It requires the use of both the [[Fire Flower]] and the [[Ice Flower]] to complete. Half of this galaxy consists of freezing water and ice, while the other half consists of molten fire and lava. [[Baron Brrr]] resides on the icy half of the galaxy. The galaxy appears to be mainly divided into three large planets. One is an icy planet, the second is a lava planet, and the third is a combination of both fire and ice with a rock-like core. There are also two minor planetoids of note; the first of which resembles a large ring of ice, and is the first planet that Mario lands on when he enters the galaxy. The second planet is one that features alternating paths of both lava and ice, and is first encountered in the ''Hot and Cold Collide'' level. This is also where [[Cosmic Mario]] is raced later, only without the lava parts present.

The '''Freezeflame Galaxy''' is a galaxy in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', accessed via the [[Bedroom (Super Mario Galaxy)|Bedroom]]. Its theme is the contrast between hot and cold environments, with roughly half of the areas visited being freezing landscapes covered in ice and snow, while the other half consists of ruins above pools of lava, inhabited by fire enemies. The cold portion of this galaxy is featured most prominently; four out of its six missions solely take place on icy planetoids. [[Baron Brrr]], the galaxy's boss, also resides on the icy half. The name of this area is a play on the term "freezeframe".
 
While this galaxy does not return in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', the [[Shiverburn Galaxy]] is similar in both its name and concept. The two galaxies also share the same background music.

{{conjecture|section=yes}}
The starting planet of the '''Freezeflame Galaxy'''. It consists of nothing more than a thin ring of ice with several ice crystals and stone stumps on the surface. Two rolling boulders are also found rolling along the inner side of the ring. The first time Mario lands here, he must ice skate around it to catch a small [[Penguin]] and make the [[Launch Star]] appear. Later on in the game, this planet becomes infused with balls of fire and lava, making it more difficult to get around without getting burned.

The Frozen Peak Planet is essentially the main planet in the galaxy, as it is the most often visited by Mario. It is large planet that consists of a very high and rocky mountain with three levels of freezing lakes. There is a large ice slide at the beginning of the planet and a second, smaller one hidden above the first lake. After taking the Launch Star to this planet, Mario will land on the first ice slide and end up on a small icy area inhabited by [[Goomba]]s. Just after the three lakes are several icy cliffs that Mario must scale in order to reach the summit of the planet. [[Baron Brrr]] resides on the third level of the of the mountain.
===Lava Core Planet===
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
[[File:Lava Core Planet.png|200px|thumb|left|The outside of the {{conjectural|Lava Core Planet|planet}}.]]
This planet is the largest encountered in the galaxy. It is a large round sphere of cooled magma, through the center of which runs a large fissure filled with lava. Here, Mario has to traverse the temple-like structures and pathways rising from the lava, as well as sinking and rolling pillars. The platforms and structures seen within the fissure seem to be all that remains of what appears to be a ruined civilization that has now been inhabited by multiple [[Ground Urchin]]s and [[Li'l Cinder]]s. [[Crate]]s are also found aplenty in this area.


===Lava Core Planet===
This planet is only visited during the mission [[Freezeflame's Blistering Core]].
[[Image:Freezeflamelava.jpg|200px|thumb|right|Mario in the '''Lava Core''']]

This planet is probably the largest planet encountered in the galaxy. It consists of a large round sphere of cooled magma, through the center of which runs a large fissure filled with molten lava. When Mario flies to this planet, he lands on a small stone platform located within the fissure. There are also multiple other platforms located inside the fissure, which prevent Mario from falling in the lava. In ''Freezeflame's Blistering Core'', he must follow these platforms to the center of the planet where he will find the [[Power Star]] for that level. These platforms seem to be all that remains of what appears to be a ruined civilization that has now been inhabited by multiple [[Urchin|Red Urchins]] and [[Burn Bit]]s.

===Hot and Cold Planet===
===Hot and Cold Planet===
[[File:FFG4.png|thumb|left|200px|Mario flying toward the Hot and Cold Planet.]]
{{conjecture|section=yes}}
This planet is a large green sphere with two circular openings on either side that connect across the middle of it by means of a small passageway. One of the openings is filled with freezing water and many [[Urchin]]s. There are also a few snow covered platforms sticking up out of the water on this side of the planet. The second of the two openings is filled with burning lava. There is a stone section with a double-sided cage that holds a [[Fire Flower]] within it in the middle of the lava. In the ''Hot and Cold Collide'' level, Mario must [[Spin]] a valve on one side of the cage in order to unlock it and access the Fire Flower, which is needed to complete the level. The tides on each side of the planet alternate with each other depending on how high one of the tides is in relation to the other.

This planet is a large sphere with two circular openings on either side that connect across the middle of it by means of a small passageway. One of the sides is filled with freezing water and many [[Urchin]]s. There are also a few snow covered platforms sticking up out of the water. The other side is filled with lava, where Mario will find a double-sided cage that holds a [[Fire Flower]]. In the Hot and Cold Collide mission, Mario must [[spin]] a valve on one side of the cage in order to unlock it and access the Fire Flower, which is needed to complete the level. The tides on each side of the planet alternate in level.


===Ice and Lava Platform Planets===
The background music changes depending on which side of the planet Mario is on – "Ice Mountain" is used for the icy side (like in Freezy Peak), and "Lava Path" is used for the lava side (like in the Lava Core Planet). If the player looks up by the planet, they can see the Power Star halo effect. This is the location of the Power Star from the [[Hot and Cold Collide]] level. This halo is present on all levels, regardless of the scenario that was chosen.
[[File:FFG5.png|thumb|200px|Ice Mario skating across the Ice and Lava Platforms.]]
{{br}}
These planets are actually comprised of many small non-gravitational alternating platforms made of pure ice or lava. There are also several rock platforms with snow on them, which serve as resting platforms for Mario when he ice skates across it. In ''Hot and Cold Collide'', this is the final planet that is encountered in the level. Mario must use the [[Ice Flower]] to ice skate across the lava portions (as well as the ice portions) to reach the Power Star hovering over the last platform. Later in the game, the lava platforms are transformed into ice, and Mario (or [[Luigi]]) must race their cosmic counterparts to the final platform and beat them to the Power Star. This planet is also surrounded by multiple [[Black Hole]]s which will suck Mario and Luigi in if they are not careful.

These are square platforms made of pure ice or lava, forming a pathway with alternating gravity directions. An Ice Flower is provided so Mario can skate across the lava platforms. This is the final planet of Hot and Cold Collide, with the Power Star resting at the end of the path. In the mission [[Frosty Cosmic Mario Race|Frosty Cosmic Mario/Luigi Race]], the lava platforms are replaced with additional ice platforms.

===The Frozen Peak of Baron Brrr===
{{br}}
[[Image:FFG2.png|200px|right|thumb|Ice Mario battling Baron Brrr.]]
[[Mario]] begins the level on the Ice Ring Planet. After talking to a [[Penguin]], he must utilize his ice skating abilities pursue it around the ice ring and catch it. The Penguin will then allow Mario to use his [[Launch Star]], after making a comment on how he has a small chance of surviving. Once Mario uses the Launch Star, he will be taken to the Frozen Peak Planet, where he has to scale the summit of the icy mountain. Mario must avoid the water on the planet, as it is freezing cold and will gradually drain his life meter if entered. The player must gradually make their way up the mountain using the [[Ice Flower]] to walk and skate on the freezing water. Near the top of the mountain, Mario will encounter the summit of [[Baron Brrr]]. After the player defeats Baron Brrr, the [[Power Star]] will appear.

Again, [[Mario]] begins the level on the Ice Ring Planet. This time, he must collect all five [[Star Chip]]s that have been frozen in various parts of the planet. After using the Launch Star that appears, Mario is taken to the Lava Core Planet. On this planet, the player must be cautious of the red [[Urchin]]s rolling around many of the platforms as well as the [[fireball]]s springing up from the [[lava]]. Once Mario obtains the [[Fire Flower]], he will gain the ability to cast fireballs at his enemies, allowing him to defeat red Urchins as well as light torches. Every time Mario lights a pair of torches, a new path will open for him, revealing the way to the next area. He must continue to progress through the level, until he reaches a cage with the [[Power Star]] behind it. He must carefully make his way across a pool of lava to two more torches on either side of the cage, which will open when both torches have been lit.

This level can only be accessed when a [[Cosmic Comet]] orbits the '''Freezeflame Galaxy'''. The level takes place on the Ice and Lava Platform Planets encountered at the end of the ''Hot and Cold Collide'' level, the only difference being that every lava platform has been replaced with an ice platform. The player will be taken straight to the starting platform of these planets at the beginning of the level, and must then race against [[Cosmic Mario]] (or [[Cosmic Luigi]]) and beat them to the end of the platforms to recover the [[Power Star]].

In order to complete this level, the player must follow the exact same procedure as in ''The Frozen Peak of Baron Brrr'', (starting on the Ice Ring Planet and progressing to the Frozen Peak Planet) until the player reaches a second set of broken water pipes just above the main body of freezing water. Mario must use the [[Ice Flower]] to create icy stepping stones on the water pipes and then use a [[Triple Jump]] or [[Backwards Somersault]] to reach a hidden [[Sling Star]], which will take him to the other side of a mountain. Here he will encounter multiple [[Pushy Walls]] and several snowmen blocking his path, which he must destroy using the [[Fire Flower]]. He must then continue to climb to the top of the peak, at the top of which lies the hidden [[Power Star]].

Captain Toad, Super Mario Galaxy

The Freezeflame Galaxy is a galaxy in Super Mario Galaxy, accessed via the Bedroom. Its theme is the contrast between hot and cold environments, with roughly half of the areas visited being freezing landscapes covered in ice and snow, while the other half consists of ruins above pools of lava, inhabited by fire enemies. The cold portion of this galaxy is featured most prominently; four out of its six missions solely take place on icy planetoids. Baron Brrr, the galaxy's boss, also resides on the icy half. The name of this area is a play on the term "freezeframe".

While this galaxy does not return in Super Mario Galaxy 2, the Shiverburn Galaxy is similar in both its name and concept. The two galaxies also share the same background music.

Planets/Areas[edit]

Starting Planet[edit]

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

SMG Freezeflame Starting Planet.png
Mario on the Starting Planet.
Freezeflame Galaxy
The ice planet infused with balls of lava.

The starting planet of the Freezeflame Galaxy is a toroidal mass of ice with several crystals and stone stumps on the surface. This planet has its own gravitational pull, allowing Mario to explore its underside. Two boulders roll along the inner side of the ring. The first time Mario lands here, he must ice skate around it to catch a small Penguin and make the Launch Star appear. In Freezeflame's Blistering Core, Mario must collect five Star Chips to make five Pull Stars and the Launch Star appear. In Hot and Cold Collide, this planet becomes infused with balls of fire and lava.

Freezy Peak[edit]

The Freezy Peak in the Freezeflame Galaxy
Mario flying to the Freezy Peak planet.

Freezy Peak[1] is essentially the main planet in the galaxy, as it is the most often visited by Mario. It is a large planet in the shape of a very high and rocky mountain with three levels of lakes of freezing water. Mario first lands on a large ice slide at the base of the mountain; a second, smaller slide is hidden above the first lake. The slide ends before a small icy area inhabited by Goombas. The player can climb the three lake sections with the help of the Ice Flower and Bomps. Baron Brrr resides at the top lake. Higher up the mountain there are icy cliffs that Mario must scale. Here, he will also find Fire Flowers and snowmen to use them on.

Lava Core 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.

Lava Core Planet in Freezeflame Galaxy
The outside of the Lava Core Planet.

This planet is the largest encountered in the galaxy. It is a large round sphere of cooled magma, through the center of which runs a large fissure filled with lava. Here, Mario has to traverse the temple-like structures and pathways rising from the lava, as well as sinking and rolling pillars. The platforms and structures seen within the fissure seem to be all that remains of what appears to be a ruined civilization that has now been inhabited by multiple Ground Urchins and Li'l Cinders. Crates are also found aplenty in this area.

This planet is only visited during the mission Freezeflame's Blistering Core.

Hot and Cold 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 flying toward the Hot and Cold Planet.
The two sides from the Hot and Cold Planet.

This planet is a large sphere with two circular openings on either side that connect across the middle of it by means of a small passageway. One of the sides is filled with freezing water and many Urchins. There are also a few snow covered platforms sticking up out of the water. The other side is filled with lava, where Mario will find a double-sided cage that holds a Fire Flower. In the Hot and Cold Collide mission, Mario must spin a valve on one side of the cage in order to unlock it and access the Fire Flower, which is needed to complete the level. The tides on each side of the planet alternate in level.

The background music changes depending on which side of the planet Mario is on – "Ice Mountain" is used for the icy side (like in Freezy Peak), and "Lava Path" is used for the lava side (like in the Lava Core Planet). If the player looks up by the planet, they can see the Power Star halo effect. This is the location of the Power Star from the Hot and Cold Collide level. This halo is present on all levels, regardless of the scenario that was chosen.

Ice and Lava Platforms[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.

Ice Mario skating across the Ice and Lava Platforms.

These are square platforms made of pure ice or lava, forming a pathway with alternating gravity directions. An Ice Flower is provided so Mario can skate across the lava platforms. This is the final planet of Hot and Cold Collide, with the Power Star resting at the end of the path. In the mission Frosty Cosmic Mario/Luigi Race, the lava platforms are replaced with additional ice platforms.

This planet is also surrounded by multiple black holes, most of them being of substantial size, which will suck Mario and Luigi in if they fall off at any point.

Sun 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 Lava Planets
The three Sun Planets.

As Mario approaches the Starting Planet in this galaxy, he flies past these three inaccessible spherical planets of pure lava, which look like three small suns, or the balls of lava lodged into the Starting Planet in Hot and Cold Collide.

Trivia[edit]

Luigi on the surface of the Hot and Cold Planet
  • A trick makes it possible to explore the surface of the Hot and Cold Planet. The player must do a triple jump right on the connecting ramp and then wall jump off the lip of the wall to access it.
  • On the Ice and Lava Platforms, if the first crystal of Star Bits is broken, the Star Bits will float in midair instead of falling to the ground like they usually would.
