'''Cloudy Court Galaxy''' is a galaxy in World 3 of ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. The galaxy takes place in the sky and is similar to [[Gusty Garden Galaxy]] from the [[Super Mario Galaxy|first game]]. This galaxy, along with [[Fluffy Bluff Galaxy]], makes prominent use of the new [[Cloud Mario]] powerup via [[Cloud Flower]]. Mario will need to use his new power to create clouds to cross the gaps in the galaxy. However, strong winds will slowly push the clouds that Mario creates, meaning that the player needs good timing and reaction to overcome this obstacle. Mario will also need to jump over giant drum barrels at one point and create clouds that float towards dangerous [[Thorny Flower]]s. [[Paragoomba]]s appear as common enemies in this level. This level is decorated with bushes that are shaped like animals.

This is a rather large, side-scrolling planet. The background is shaped like a castle wall, hence its name. At the beginning of the planet is a Checkpoint Flag. The player must utilize the Cloud Flower to make a cloud to ride up to the top of the wall using the wind, avoiding prickly plants. Then they must ride the wind to cross a gap on a cloud to two walls, being careful not to touch the prickly plants below. Then, the player must use the [[Wall Jump]] technique to climb up the two walls. If the player strategically uses clouds and jumps to go up to the left, they find three 1-Ups. They have to cross another gap with more prickly plants below to get to two crushing walls. In the middle of these walls are another Cloud Flower and the [[Comet Medal]]. The player must use the wind to ride up to the top, timing it correctly so they are not crushed by the walls. At the top there is a giant windmill and a [[Power Star]]. The windmill tries to push the player away from the Power Star and into a wall of even more prickly plants.

This bowl-shaped planet has a Checkpoint Flag and several clouds floating over [[dark matter]]. The player must get all the [[Silver Star]]s on the planet to get a Power Star. The music from [[Flip-Swap Galaxy]] plays on this planet. [[Cosmic Clone]]s and [[Paragoomba]]s make the mission more challenging. A Cosmic Clone appears when a silver star is collected. Hitting a clone removes the player's cloud power, causing them to fall in the dark matter.

The player will first land on the Starting Planets. From there, they must make their way to the large windmill on the other side. Using the strong current, the player should hop onto the drums and continue bouncing upwards until they reach the Launch Star. At the Ruined Towers Planets, they must use the vent to travel upwards onto the second tower. Using the windmill, the player must go to the final tower and use the Launch Star there to blast themselves to the Castle Wall Planet. Being wary of the gaps and the [[Thorny Flower]]s, the player must make their way to the crushing wall, where they will need to use the upward current to continue. Finally, there will be a large windmill creating a strong current towards some Thorny Flowers. The player must go against the current and get the [[Power Star]] located above the windmill.

The player redoes the [[Head in the Clouds (mission)|Head in the Clouds]] mission. The first [[Green Star]] is located above the head of the dinosaur topiary on the first planet. To reach it, the player must use the [[Cloud Flower]]. The Star is located fairly high above the dinosaur topiary, so all three clouds are required to reach it. The player must climb to the top of the dinosaur topiary without using the clouds, then use all three clouds to climb into jumping range of the Star.

Cloudy Court Galaxy is a galaxy in World 3 of Super Mario Galaxy 2. The galaxy takes place in the sky and is similar to Gusty Garden Galaxy from the first game. This galaxy, along with Fluffy Bluff Galaxy, makes prominent use of the new Cloud Mario powerup via Cloud Flower. Mario needs to use his new power to create clouds to cross the gaps in the galaxy. However, strong winds slowly push the clouds that Mario creates, meaning that the player needs good timing and reaction to overcome this obstacle. Mario also needs to jump over giant drum barrels at one point and create clouds that float towards dangerous prickly plants. Paragoombas appear as common enemies in this level. This level is decorated with bushes that are shaped like animals.

Planets[edit]

Starting Planets[edit]

The title of this section is conjectural; an official name for the section's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an official name is found, then the section should be changed to its appropriate title.

Mario on the Starting Planets.
Mario on the drums in the Cloudy Court Galaxy
Mario on the drum planets.

The Starting Planet is divided into several smaller areas. These small planetoids have bushes, topiary, flowers, cloud platforms and Cloud Flowers. The player must use the Cloud Flowers wisely to get across the large gap. There is also a Life Mushroom to the far right, above a cloud platform, and a ? Coin above one of the floating Empty Blocks that makes coins appear. On the other side, there is a large windmill which creates an air current in the direction of some floating percussion instruments. The player must hop up the three drums and reach the Launch Star located on a cymbal.

Ruined Towers Planets[edit]

The title of this section is conjectural; an official name for the section's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an official name is found, then the section should be changed to its appropriate title.

Mario approaching the Ruined Towers Planets.

The first tower has a Checkpoint Flag, a Hungry Luma that asks for 30 coins, and a Cloud Flower. The player can use the vent to travel upwards on a cloud that they can create. However, the player must dodge wooden obstacles to prevent falling back down. At the top there is an Elite Octoomba, Goomba, Teleporter, springboards, and another giant fan that blows a current towards the next planet. The third tower has two more Goombas and an Elite Octoomba along with a ? Block and a Launch Star. There is a secret area in the middle with a 1-Up Mushroom and a Cloud Flower. A small black hole is seen below the second planet.

Castle Wall Planet[edit]

The title of this section is conjectural; an official name for the section's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an official name is found, then the section should be changed to its appropriate title.

Mario approaching the Castle Wall Planet.

This is a rather large, side-scrolling planet. The background is shaped like a castle wall, hence its name. At the beginning of the planet is a Checkpoint Flag. The player must utilize the Cloud Flower to make a cloud to ride up to the top of the wall using the wind, avoiding prickly plants. Then they must ride the wind to cross a gap on a cloud to two walls, being careful not to touch the prickly plants below. Then, the player must use the Wall Jump technique to climb up the two walls. If the player strategically uses clouds and jumps to go up to the left, they find three 1-Ups. They have to cross another gap with more prickly plants below to get to two crushing walls. In the middle of these walls are another Cloud Flower and the Comet Medal. The player must use the wind to ride up to the top, timing it correctly so they are not crushed by the walls. At the top there is a giant windmill and a Power Star. The windmill tries to push the player away from the Power Star and into a wall of even more prickly plants.

Purple Pond[edit]

Luigi flying above the Purple Pond.

This bowl-shaped planet has a Checkpoint Flag and several clouds floating over dark matter. The player must get all the Silver Stars on the planet to get a Power Star. The music from Flip-Swap Galaxy plays on this planet. Cosmic Clones and Paragoombas make the mission more challenging. A Cosmic Clone appears when a silver star is collected. Hitting a clone removes the player's cloud power, causing them to fall in the dark matter.

This planet is named in the third mission, Silver Stars in the Purple Pond.

Cosmic Platforms Planet[edit]

The title of this section is conjectural; an official name for the section's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an official name is found, then the section should be changed to its appropriate title.

These small planetoids are only present during The Shadow Lining mission. Cosmic Platforms are seen floating around these planets. There are five Star Chips located on this planet, which form a Launch Star once all pieces have been collected. This planet is in the same place where the Ruined Towers Planets were.

Green Star 1[edit]

Mario about to get the first Green Star.

The player redoes the Head in the Clouds mission. The first Green Star is located above the head of the dinosaur topiary on the first planet. To reach it, the player must use the Cloud Flower. The Star is located fairly high above the dinosaur topiary, so all three clouds are required to reach it. The player must climb to the top of the dinosaur topiary without using the clouds, then use all three clouds to climb into jumping range of the Star.

Prima Official Game Guide description[edit]
