Gateway Galaxy - Gateway's Purple Coins

Welcome to the Galaxy!
Mario
We find ourselves on the Gate planet, where we woke up at the beginning of our adventure. Rosalina, once again, is on the tower. She says, "This planet... It's very dear to me. I looked forward to visiting this planet with the Lumas every one hundred years... The Luma that's traveling with you may also grow up to become a star someday. Some Lumas become planets... some become comets... and a few become Power Stars. I'm traveling with them while they look for a place to be reborn... But I never thought all this would happen..." The red Luma nearby says, "Wow... Mama must really trust you. Well, how about this?" Purple Coins appear. "If you grav all 100 Purple Coins here, then you'll earn my trust, too." A Red Star appears. "This is a Red Star. It holds the Power of the Red Lumas. But the really amazing part about it is, it allows you to fly after you spin in midair. Yes, FLY! While pressing (A), you can pick the direction you want to fly with the Control Stick. If you can collect 100 Purple Coins, I'll let you use my power somewhere else."
This is our first Purple Coin mission, which is like collecting 100 Coins in Super Mario 64. I decided to get the coins on the ground first. I accidentally ran into a Red Star and got the message: "You transformed into Flying Mario! Spin when jumping to fly!" Mario's hat and overalls turn black and his hands glow red, leaving a trail of light in our wake. We get most of the coins circling the planet in one pass. The Red Star music plays while we have the power. While flying, we can spin to collect nearby coins. Once it runs out, we get more coins on the ground. Once we have all of those, we pick up the last two coins in the air we missed. Once we collect all 100 Purple Coins, a Red Power Star appears on the tower.
Red Star Get #1!

Interlude
We find the red Luma above the Library near Bedroom Dome. There is a Red Star here. The Observatory is where we get to use this awesome power. We can now fly around the Observatory, collecting the 1-ups hidden around here that are out of reach.

Luigi
We find ourselves on the Gate and talk to Rosalina and the red Luma. The Purple Coins and Red Star appear. We get the coins on the ground first, before transforming into Flying Luigi and get thePurple Coins in the area. We get all of the Purple Coins and the Red Star.
