Template:Galaxybox The Sweet Sweet Galaxy, originally known as The Cookie Factory Galaxy is one of the galaxies that Mario traverses in Super Mario Galaxy. It appears after the Hungry Luma next to the Terrace has been fed full of Star Bits. It features moving platforms with cookie-cutter-shaped holes in them and appears to be made up primarily of titanic sweets and desserts. It takes place in the atmosphere of a planet, so if Mario falls through a hole, he will fall to his death. The stage also has electric barriers which have to be jumped over; if Mario touches one, he will get stunned temporarily and lose one point of health.

The music of the Sweet Sweet Galaxy is a remix of the second overworld theme from Super Mario Bros. 3.

Planets/Areas

Starting Planet

This is a very small "planet" in which Mario starts off as he enters the galaxy. It is extremely small and shaped like a very small square slice of cake. Mario must makes his way across the cookie-cutter platforms to make it to the main planet.

Main Planet

This is a large planet made of cake with moving, chocolate roads with shapes cut out of them. Mario must run across these roads avoiding the holes to reach the Power Star. The roads range from a simple linear path to a curved path with big shapes cut in them.

Small Cake Planet

This is a small platform where the Power Star is held. It has three layers that seem to be lemon, mint chocolate, and strawberry. It has a circle of strawberries that Mario can spin to get Star Bits.

Missions

Rocky Road

Mario in the Sweet Sweet Galaxy

To complete this level, Mario must pass four sets of moving platforms with holes and electric barriers all over them. The first set has just holes and two barriers, it is relatively easy to cross. The second section is the same thing basically. Only by the third moving platform does the ground change, it turns brown and begins moving diagonally. Mario must then cross the last straight, it has two electric barriers, some of the platforms are platforms with air in them and others are air with platforms between them. Once Mario passes this part, he will be able to claim his Power Star on top of a cake. In the pre-release versions of this game, this mission was known as Conquering the Sweet Cake.

Trivia

  • The name of the only level in this galaxy comes from the name of a dessert, rocky road, which is chocolate mixed with marshmallows, and in some countries, nuts or other ingredients. In the United States, it is also a well known ice-cream flavour.
  • This galaxy is intended as a flashback to the mechanics of past Mario games to remind long-term fans that the unorthodox Super Mario Galaxy is still a part of the series.[1]
  • The galaxy can be accessed without using the Launch Star via a glitch; after talking to the filled-up Luma to make the Launch Star appear, Flying Mario can be used to access the portal.
  • This galaxy's level "Rocky Road" is one of the very few levels that has no enemies. Only obstacles and holes.
