Supermassive Galaxy

"We grow 'em big here! Watch out!"

- Giant Luma

Supermassive Galaxy is the first galaxy of World 4 in the game Super Mario Galaxy 2. Supermassive Galaxy depicts many common Mario enemies and elements at an extraordinary size. Some include Piranha Plants, Lumas, coins and Platforms. The concept can be compared to that of Giant Land from Super Mario Bros. 3 or the 'huge' part of Tiny-Huge Island in Super Mario 64, in which enemies, blocks, and other objects were also giant compared to Mario himself. Mario can traversing across giant Warp Pipes and Blocks. Many enemies here include Grand Goombas, Grand Paragoombas, Gargantua Koopa Troopas, Piranhacus Gigantici, Mega Wigglers and Super Thwomps. The Grand Goombas and Paragoombas can be defeated the normal way, by spinning and kicking, and the Gargantua Koopa Troopas can only be defeated by using a Spin Drill. Piranhacus Gigantici, Mega Wigglers, and Super Thwomps cannot be defeated.

The Supermassive Blocks Planet is an area made of Brick Blocks. A giant Luma is found on it. Mario will encounter several giant enemies such as Grand Goombas, Giant Piranha Plants and Thwomps. Most of them are invincible. The Comet Medal can be found near one of the giant Goombas. There is also a giant Warp Pipe serving as an elevator and a giant Coin which Mario can do a Wall Jump on it to progress. The Launch Star can be found near two Thwomps. There also is a shortcut by long jumping off the top off the first Super Thwomp. If Mario performs a spin, he can break the gravitational pull and land on the Giant Koopas Planet.

This circle-shaped dirt planet is the second planet that Mario visits in this galaxy. It is populated by three giant Gargantua Koopa Troopas that continuously walk around it counterclockwise. It looks slightly similar to the planet in the Spin-Dig Galaxy where Mario fights Digga-Leg. Mario must use the Spin Drill found on this planet to defeat the three Gargantua Koopa Troopas. Mario's battle strategy against them is similar to Raphael the Raven's battle in Yoshi's Island.

On this planet, if Mario can jump repeatedly on any Gargantua Koopa Troopa shell eight times in a row, and then continue to do so, he can earn an endless supply of extra lives. This is very similar to what happens on the Yoshi Head Planet in the Space Junk Galaxy in Super Mario Galaxy. On this planet, if Mario jumps on top of Goombas eight times in a row, he can earn multiple extra lives until there are no Goombas left on the planet.

This planet is not accessed, but Mario flies through it after being launched by the Launch Star from the Giant Koopa Planet. There are Star Bits found on the walls.

Like the first one, this planet is made of giant Brick Blocks, however, the first path is possibly made of Star Chips. Another giant Luma is seen here, as well as Grand Goombas, Piranhacus Gigantici and Grand Paragoombas. At the end of the planet, there is a series of yellow moving platforms. They will disappear as time progresses, so the plumber has to jump on them in time.

When Mario lands on this planet, it'll be just a simple grassy planet. However, when he walks around it, flowers will start to grow up. When flowers surrender all of the planet, a vine will grow up making Mario able to reach the Power Star and complete the secret star mission, In Full Bloom.

This planet is shaped like a cylinder made of stones. It serves as the final planet for the most of the missions. This planet is inhabited by big Wigglers, the last two running angrily. Mario can get past them by using his Long Jump. The Power Star for Huge Trouble With Big Wigglers is located on top of a pole at the end of this planet.

Huge Trouble with Big Wigglers
Mario will start out at the beginning of the Starting Planet. He must run along the brick path, jump up the coin and past the pipes, and avoid the Super Thwomps to get to the Launch Star. Mario will then go to the Giant Koopas Planet. He must obtain the Spin Drill, and drill through the ground with the right timing to hit a Gargantua Koopa Troopa's underside and defeat it. Once all three Gargantua Koopa Troopas are defeated, a Launch Star will appear nd take Mario tthrough the Giant Warp Pipe Planet and into the Giant Star Chips Planet.

Mario must jump across the triangular platforms and across the pipes, and traverse the disappearing yellow platforms to get to the Launch Star. This Launch Star will take Mario to the Launch Star in the Blooming Garden Planet, and Mario can spin again to get to the Stone Tube Planet. On the Stone Tube Planet, Mario must run toward the pole at the end, avoiding the Mega Wigglers that walk around the planet. Once Mario reaches the pole, he must climb the pole and claim the Power Star on top.

Trivia

 * The background music heard in this galaxy is a remix of Super Mario 2007, originally heard in the Toy Time Galaxy from the first game, Super Mario Galaxy.
 * Interestingly, the Supermassive Galaxy is located in World 4, and World 4 in Super Mario Bros. 3 was named Giant Land, which this galaxy is very similar to.
 * The pole Mario has to slide up to get the first power star is similar to the one that is used as the goal for the levels in Super Mario Bros., New Super Mario Bros., and New Super Mario Bros. Wii.
 * In E3 2009, the Blooming Garden Planet was a dirt planet rather than a grass planet, and there were regular Goombas on it.
 * The Stone Tube Planet in this galaxy bears a strong resemblance to The Cyclone Stone in the Beach Bowl Galaxy, as well as the Starting Planet in the Stone Cyclone Galaxy.
