WORLD 4-1. HUGE CHALLENGES FOR A GREAT HERO

SUPERMASSIVE GALAXY

(GALAXIA DESCOMUNAL)

HUGE TROUBLE WITH BIG WIGGLERS

(MÁS ALLÁ DE LAS FLORUGAS COLOSALES) 

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

HERE EVERYTHING IS INCREDIBLY BIG!!!! The Lumas, the enemies, the platforms. You must learn to use the lenght jump, in order to go from one platform to another. This is one of my favourite Galaxies in the game. I liked that huge enemies. Some of them can be easily killed by spinning or by using the Spin Drill. Others are awesome, but they can kill you. This Galaxy is different from what I expected, an that capacity of surprising you is what makes this game a great game. 

ENEMIES

Giant Goombas, Huge Piranha Plants, Crazy Titanic Twhomps, Koopa Troopas, and Big Angry Wigglers are the collosus enemies you will have to deal with. 

MY ADVICE

This Galaxy has one useful trick. When you are at the Koopas´Planet, jump over the shell of one of them and keep jumping. After some rebounds, you will start wining 1-Ups in a fast an easy way. Keep jumping until you have 99 Ups.

IN FULL BLOOM
(EL FONTANERO JARDINERO)
HOW IS THIS GALAXY
This is a hidden star. Before going to the Wiggler´s planet, you can choose between going there directly or doing some gardening on a green planet. While you are walking through this planet, flowers appear. When all the planet gets full of plants, you will have the path for this hidden Star.

ENEMIES
There are not enemies in this planet. You only must deal with the enemies in the previous phases. 
MY ADVICE
Get the coins, because, in one phase of the game, you will have to pay coins to roll a dice, and get more 1-Ups. You may don´t know it. But every time you reset the game, you only have 4 lives. So you choose:
A) Getting the 99 lives by jumping on the Koopa.
B) Paying 100 coins to a Lumalee.

PAY ME! PAY ME!! IT´S ONLY 100 COINS!!

HONEYHOP GALAXY

(GALAXIA MONTES MELOSOS)

THE SWEETEST SILVER STARS

(DULCES ESTRELLAS DE PLATA) 

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

Here, Bee Mario rerurns. You will have to climb through this Galaxy, getting the 5 Silver Stars that are here. Until you reach the Bee Queen, the ruler, that has a Silver Star at his back. Howerver, these Stars are truly hidden. I needed 30 minutes to collect all of them. And there will also be enemies there to disturb you, and water, that will make you lose your Bee Power-Up.

This is the Bee Queen.

ENEMIES

There is a huge amount of Octoombas in this Galaxy: red Octoombas, Green Octoombas... There is a Star over a Plant that will trap you if you step on it. The Choppahs (that undefeatable enemies) will be there too. 

        

OCTOOMBA                                   CHOPPAH

And if that wasn´t enough, there are Water Shooters that will make you lose your Bee Power-Up.

MY ADVICE

This is a huge Galaxy. Before going to the next phase, explore so you don´t have forgotten anything. If you don´t find a Silver Star, don´t worry. You have all the time of the world (until your mother tells you to stop playing Super Mario Galaxy 2).

THE CHIMP´S SCORE CHALLENGE

(¡A POR PUNTOS! ¡REVOLOTEANDO Y PISOTEANDO!)

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

Yes, the Chimp is back, and he has a new, difficult challenge. It consists in stomping all the enemies and collect the coins, until you get 10000 points. The difficult part? In the Fluffy Bluffy Galaxy all the enemies were together, and there was only one path to follow. But here you must choose which enemies do you want to kill. And you have to be fast. You have only 120 seconds.

JI, JI JI!! GET 10000 POINTS OR YOU WILL LOSE 1 LIFE!

ENEMIES

Octoombas, Octoombas, Octoombas, and those are.... Yeah, more Octoombas. There are only Octoombas in these Galaxy. Each one of them will give you 100, 200 or 300 coins. 

I don´t want to put you under pressure, but if you don´t get 10000 coins, you´ll lose a life. 

MY ADVICE

It took me thousands of attempts to beat this guy. My only advice, is to get the coins from the enemies (they can give you 100 points) and spinning while ytou are jumping. This will make you stay a little more time in the air.  My record is 10730 points.Will you reach it?

BUT THE CHIMP WILL COME BACK!!!! THAT EVIL MONKEY NEVER DIES!

FLIPSVILLE GALAXY

(GALAXIA CARA Y CRUZ)

FLIP-FLOPPING IN FLIPSVILLE

(LAS DOS CARAS DE VUELTIBURGO)

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

Welcome to Flipsville!!! An idillic city where you can walk up and down!! You will discover platfroms for your Bomb Jumps, you will have fun with the Toad Brigade, and you will be killed by the awful monsters living in this Galaxy.

This is what I´ve read about Flipsville, and it was true. You can walk by two sides of the planet.
What you have to do is a bomb jump on some blue platforms. But this is not as idillic as it may seem. There are plenty of monsters here that will want to stop you so you don´t get the Power Star... But the boss is even worst. 

ENEMIES
Appart from the Octoombas, new enemies will appear. You can defeat some monsters called Pupdozers by going to the other side of the planet and doing a Bomb jump in their belly. The final boss is the  Pupdozer Queen. However, you can´t defet Chomps by doing this. They will hit you.

GLAMDOZER (BOSS)
You will arrive to a leaf planet, where Glamdozer is sleeping. Do a Bomb Jump on their belly  to wake her up. She will start chasing you, and he can walk from one side of the planet to the other one, and it will be more difficult to hit her in the belly. But, by doing this 3 more times, you will defeat her and get the Power Star. 

Ah, yeah. She can throw fireballs to hit you.
MY ADVICE
Don´t do what I did. To defea this boss easily, you must stay in a point of the planet. near a Bomb Jump platform, and keep jumping from one side to another. This is an explanation video:

FLIPSVILLE´S NEW DIGS
(TROMPOTALADROS EN VUELTIBURGO)
HOW IS THIS GALAXY
Welcome back to Flipsville! Now, instead of doing Bomb Jumps, you must go from one side of the planet to another by using the Spin Drill.  After talking to Captain Toad, you will have to reach a phase where there are 5 Silver Stars. But it won´t be that easy. The gravity will be always changing, so learn to deal with it.  By getting the Silver Stars without being killed, a Power Star will appear at the centre of the planet. 


ENEMIES 
Twirlips and  Mechakoopas will be there to disturb you. In the last phase, you must be careful, so you don´t hit yourself against the Fuzzies. 

MECHAKOOPA                                                                               














FUZZY

MY ADVICE
Don´t worry if you don´t reach what you wanted with the Spin Drill. You´ll have tons of opportunities to get to the correct point. There is not a timer putting you under pressure.

SWEET MISTERY GALAXY

(GALAXIA GALLETAS SECRETAS) 

BULB BERRY´S MYSTERIOUS GLOW

(¡FRUTAS LUMINOSAS, GALLETAS MISTERIOSAS!)

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

After giving 1200 Star Bits to a Hungry Luma, you will discover this Galaxy. Here the Bulb Berry is very important. You will need it to make the path appear. This Galaxy has a Sweet theme. There are plenty of donuts, and cream, and... Mmm, I´m hungry now! Don´t visit this Galaxy if you hadn´t eaten before.

And remember that if you don´t get a Bulb Berry before the effects disappear... UAAAAH!

The Star is at the top of a cake.

ENEMIES

I´ve found the way to defeat the Choppahs! Yoshi van eat that monsters so they don´t disturb anymore, and you can get Star Bits from them. An enemy called Smeech can stick to Yoshi´s mouth, so you can´t eat the Bulb Berries. Spin to defeat him. 

MY ADVICE

Do you remember that I´ve said that in Yoshi´s Galaxies there are plenty of gliches? I´ve found another one.

Don´t rush here, because there are lots of Bulb Berries to avoid deaths. You must run only when the music  of Bulb Yoshi gets faster. 

I think this is a relaxing Galaxy. I almost fall asleep while playing. The music is quite relaxing: Here you have an extract. 

Relaxing, no? 

See you in another video!

WORLD 2-2. SKATING, SWIMMING AND FLYING

HONEYBLOOM GALAXY 

(GALAXIA FLORIFLOR)

BUMBLE BEGINNINGS

(¡LAS MIELES DE MARIO!) 

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

You will unlock this Galaxy after feeding a Hungry Luma that will ask you for a lot of Star Bits.

When you arrive here, some bees will tell you that they are looking for a Star. You will have a new Power-Up to reach that Star: Bee Mario. You must keep flying to advance through the Galaxy, avoiding the enemies. There are only two Galaxies where you will need a Bee mushroom. This is one of them.

BEE MARIO

This is a new Power-Up, that will allow you to keep flying for a short period of time. Then, you will need to land or to get a coin to recover before starting flying again. This Power- Up disappears when you touch water or you get hit by an enemy.

 

ENEMIES

Do you remember that in the Hightail Falls and in the Wild Glide Galaxy there were not enemies? Well, here there are lots of them: from Fuzzies, classic black spots that have appeared in every Mario game, to Choppahs, flying monsters that are impossible to defeat by jumping on them or spining. There are Goombas and Venus Piranha plants, plants that will trap you if you spend too much time resting on them. 

CHOPPAH                                                                                                                       FUZZY

MY ADVICE

Wait until the Choppahs are down before jumping. If not, you can die because of them. 

There is one phases in which the are cherries that will give you more time to fly if you hit against them.

THE SECRET WALL JUMP

(LA ESCALADA SECRETA HACIA LA ESTRELLA)

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

This is a hidden Star in the Honeybloom Galaxy. You must go up by jumping from one wall to another, until you reach a small lake with the Power Star. It does not take a great time to get this Star (I did it in 40 seconds).

ENEMIES

Before that wall, you will find two lonely Goombas, that will want to kill you.

MY ADVICE

Well, this Star is easy to get, but you will have to explore the Galaxy to discover that there is a Star in that place.

Just by exploring the Galaxy, (although this may bring some terrible deaths).

COSMIC COVE GALAXY 

(GALAXIA GRUTA GÉLIDA)

TWIN FALLS HIDEAWAY

(EL MISTERIO DE LAS CASCADAS GEMELAS)

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

You will face a penguin that also appeared in Super Mario Galaxy, and he tells you that everyone is swimming. You will have to enter in the water and to keep going without losing all your air, until you arrive to a Tower that has a button that can freeze all the planet. You must do the wall jump in two freezed walls to reach the Star.

                        

This are all the type of penguins that you can find in this Galaxy.

ENEMIES

In this Galaxy you will find 1 Koopa, some fishes called Cheep Cheeps, some Skeeters and 1 Porcu-Puffer. There are a lot of underwater enemies.

SKEETER                                                                                     PORCU PUFFER

MY ADVICE

After defeating the Koopa that is in the beach, don´t throw his shell away. Grab it and get into the water with it. It will help you to go faster underwater, and it will kill some enemies, too. 

EXPLORING THE COSMIC CAVERN

(EXPEDICIÓN EN LA GRUTA GÉLIDA)

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

When you arrive you see that a Luma is trapped and you must find the key to free him. You must keep going over the ice and underwater , without losing your air, until you find the key to free him. He will seand you to a planet full of enemies that you must defeat, so the planet gets covered by the water and you can get the Star, that is over the water.

ENEMIES

Here you will find mines, that you can destroy by throwing Star Bits to them, Goombas, Lil´Brs(they can freeze you  if you touch them) and huge monsters called Gringills, they can make you lose 1 HP.

GRINGILL                                                                                                                 LIL ´BR

MY ADVICE

Get all the coins you can, because if you lose your air you die. You can also get bubbles to recover. Spin to swim faster. That is something that will surely help. 

CATCH THAT STAR BUNNY

(¡ATRAPA AL CONEJO ESTELAR!) 

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

This is a hidden Star in the Cosmic Cove Galaxy. You will have to give 15 coins to a Hungry Luma (what I call Thieve Lumas), to unlock this planet. It has a black hole in the center, so it´s better to avoid falling there. Here you will have to chase a Star Bunny until you trap him, so he gives you that hidden Power Star. 

ENEMIES

To stop you and to make more difficult to catch the Star Bunny, there are many Skeeters throughout the planet, BUT you can freeze them so they don´t disturb you anymore.

MY ADVICE

When you arrive at the planet, there is a blue button that can freeze the planet. The Skeeters will not disturb you for a short period of time. Start skating (you will go faster) and catch that fast Bunny. He will give you that Power Star. But be careful. If you go extremely fast, you will suicide.

BOWSER´S LAVA LAIR

(CIUDADELA CALDERA DE BOWSER)

BOWSER´S BIG LAVA POWER PARTY

(LA GUARIDA DE LAVA DE BOWSER)

HOW IS THIS GALAXY

This is the first Bowser´s battle of the game. You will have to keep going through this Galaxy, with plenty of enemies, and to open huge doors by doing Bomb jumps on meteorites. It is a very good Galaxy, where you can find a wide variety of enemies, and also the Toad Brigade. Advance through this crazy Galaxy full of dangers, enemies, and, of course, lava. 

ENEMIES

Dry Bones, Hammer Bros (special tutles that throw hammers), Whomps (they can kill you by smashing you), Bowser´s electric statues, that throw electric radiation, flames ... They are only some of the enemies that are waiting for you here. 

 

BOWSER 1 (BOSS)

He is the final boss of World 2. You get to him after destroying a locker with meteorites. You must avoid Bowser´s punch and  flame and hit him with meteorites, that fall on the planet,  4 times to defeat him. You only have one opportunity of hitting him, before the self-destruction of the meteorites. After defeating Bowser, he will escape and you will have a Maxi Star.

He is not really difficult to defeat, but you will have to battle him again in another Galaxy.

MY ADVICE

Avoid to be smashed by the Whomps, and practise doing BOMB JUMPS on the meteorites. You will have to learn it for the final battle.
