Shrinking Satellite is the only mission of the Hurry-Scurry Galaxy in Super Mario Galaxy and its Nintendo Switch port.

Layout[edit]

The player begins on a small platform next to a path with many shrinking platforms with Star Bits, a Goomba, a 1-Up Mushroom, and a ? Block containing coins. By using the Launch Star located underneath one of the shrinking platforms, the player can reach the main planet.

As the player lands, notes will start to form around the planet. The player has to collect them all as the platforms disappear underneath them in order to collect the Power Star.
