Super Mario

Flipswitch Galaxy is a galaxy in Super Mario Galaxy. It has a set of Flip Switches which Mario must step on and a medium-sized Black Hole in the center. After all of them have been turned yellow, a Power Star appears. The background is a scene from Super Mario Bros., usually an overworld-themed background but sometimes an underground-themed one instead. A robot spawns out circle shaped lasers which can damage Mario. Some Flip Switches are also covered with moving spiked platforms that can hurt Mario.

In this level, Mario needs to step on every blue Flipswitch so that they are all yellow at the same time. Due to the layout of the level, it is likely that Mario will need to step on certain Flipswitches more than once in the process to turn all of them yellow. There are also some spiked platforms Mario has to cross. After turning all the Flipswitches yellow, they will turn green and the Power Star will appear. Mario then has to use the spring-necked robot on the top of the planetoid to reach the Power Star.

Planets[]

Starting Planet[]

The Starting Planet is the largest planet in the galaxy and the only accessible one, it is covered with 18 Flip Switches and several hazards like electrical barriers and spiked platforms. Mario needs to flip all Flip Switch Panels and will receive a Power Star.
