Honeybloom Galaxy

"We came here in search of a Power Star for our queen!"

- Bee

The Honeybloom Galaxy is a galaxy in Super Mario Galaxy 2 that can be unlocked after feeding the Hungry Luma 700 Star Bits. This galaxy introduces the Bee Mushroom, which can turn Mario into Bee Mario, allowing him to fly for a short period of time. The whole level takes place on one large cube-shaped planet with a side-scrolling view. The stage is filled with several obstacles, including spiky Stretch Plants which Bee Mario has to dodge. There are also small plants that will grant Mario one Star Bit when touched. Mario enters this galaxy sliding along a long vine with the small plants, collecting more Star Bits on the way. Because the level is filled with tight spots and high areas, Mario will have to try to stay as Bee Mario for most of the level.

This galaxy, with the Honeyhop Galaxy, play a jazzy remixed tune of the Honeyhive Galaxy / Gold Leaf Galaxy theme.

Most of the level takes place in this big, sidescroller planet full of flowers, vines, and grapes that Bee Mario can bounce on. Common enemies on this planet are Choppahs and Venus Flower Traps.

This planet is mostly made of a giant log and colourful woods. In this planet is also found Spiny Stretch Plants.

Bumble Beginnings
Upon entering the galaxy, Mario will find some Bees searching for their Queen's Power Star. Once Mario has progressed a bit more, he'll find a Bee Mushroom. To complete this mission, the plumber has to make his way to the end of the Honeybloom Planet using his Bee Form and bouncing off of grapes. When he gets there, he'll find the Power Star above a cloud guarded by a Choppah. After getting the Power Star, a Bee will send Mario a letter saying "Well done! None of us bees could get that Power Star!". The letter will also contain a 1-up Mushroom.

The mission gets its name from combining the stereotypical beginning to biographies, "Humble Beginnings", with Bumblebee.

The Secret Wall Jump
To complete this mission, Mario has to use the first swing he finds. When swinging on it, he must perform a Star Spin to reach the two walls, then use the Wall Kick on them until he reaches the top. Then, the only thing left is to get the Power Star. After returning to Starship Mario, Mario will find a Bee will be on board.

Green Star 1
To get this star, the player has to do the same thing as the first mission. The green star is above a flying Choppah near the end of the bouncing fruit area.

Green Star 2
Green Star 2 is above the vine after the two swings. To reach the star, one may use the second swing and jump to the left and fly to the top of the edge using the Bee Mushroom, and from there, jump to the right and fly to the star.
