Flip Swap Galaxy - Think Before You Shake

Welcome Back to the Galaxy!



The mission title contains some very wise words for this particular galaxy. The galaxy is mainly made up of red and blue tiles, that alternate between adjacent squares when Mario spins. All red tiles will switch to blue tiles in the next square, and vice versa, when you shake the Wiimote. You must jump before spinning to not fall into a black hole. There is a Star Bunny with blue ears and a blue Toad's vest at the star of the level. We got a 1-up Shroom and took a hit from a Goomba. We thankfully reach the midgate, but the area gets more difficult because a bunch of Chomps drop out of black holes/dark matter. They can roll around a path of adjacent tiles. Flipping the tiles can make the Chomps fall through, but also create a path for other Chomps. Unfortunately, I did not time my shake well and fell in the Black Hole.



Take 2- I fell in due to another bad shake.



Take 3- I found the Comet Medal on a tile near where a Chomp comes out, and died from a bad shake.



Take 4- I got the Comet Medal and through much effort, got the Star.

Star Get #5, 3 Comet Medals, 343 Star Bits, 16 Lives

Interlude

Lubba mentions that we brought back a Star Bunny, when we return to the base of Starship Mario. I don't ever remember bringing one back, but it's a nice addition. Apparently, Lubba thinks Star Bunnies are the cutest things in the universe. The Star Bunny advises us to shake when jumping to reach new heights, which is something I already knew from Galaxy.
