Matter Splatter Galaxy

Matter Splatter Galaxy is a galaxy from Super Mario Galaxy. Unusually, the galaxy's surfaces appear when a sort of spotlight moves across them, and disappear when the spotlight moves away. Magikoopas are the only enemies in this level.

This is the first 3-D area in the level. It contains what seems to be a large room, however, Mario can only stand on the parts of the room he can see. There are tiny droplets of matter that make the ground visible, and Mario must jump in the puddles of matter they make. He must also avoid Magikoopas to get to the pipe.

This is the first 2-D area in the level. It is a dark area with more matter droplets that Mario must follow to get to the pipe. There are also more Magikoopas trying to stop Mario.

This is the second 2-D area in the level. In this part Mario must grab a Spring Mushroom and climb a wall to reach a pipe at the top. There is an ascending spotlight of matter that Mario must follow or he will fall off the planet.

This is the second 3-D area in the level. In this part of the level, a small network of walkways lead to the power star, but are hidden until shone upon by the spotlight of matter, which Mario must again follow. Once Mario reaches the power star at the end, however, there is a Magikoopa that will try to prevent him from reaching the Power Star. He can be easily avoided, however.

Watch Your Step
Mario lands on a solid platform. He then has to pass the planet until he reaches a green Warp Pipe. He will end up on a planet that requires a few Wall Jumps to get to the top and into the next planet. Mario will have to jump up pink platforms and destroy the Item Crystal to get a Spring Mushroom. He has to bounce up to grab the Question Coin to move the "spotlight". Once he reaches the top, he must use the Sling Star to transform back into normal and land on another planet. Mario must then travel through a maze, so if he reaches a dead end, he will fall. In every group of four Star Bits, a Magikoopa will appear. Once he passes, the "spotlight" will begin to shrink, so he has to get the Power Star very quickly.

Trivia

 * The Matter Splatter Area in the Ghostly Galaxy uses the same concept as this level, although it is much shorter.
 * The layout of the Maze Walkway Planet in the Flash Black Galaxy is extremely similar to the layout of Area 4 in this galaxy.
