Super Mario: Elemental Journey/PurpleIsSus1985's Working Copy

Super Mario: Elemental Journey is a 3D Platformer in the vein of Super Mario 64. It is part of the Exotendo Super Mario Bros. series, taking place after Super Mario Maker Phi. This installment features new elemental stars for Mario and other characters to collect as well as stacking power-ups.
==Gameplay==
The gameplay is based on the Super Mario 64 and Galaxy games. Characters are controlled with the analog stick and can jump with . The trigger buttons make characters crouch, do somersaults, and do long jumps. Some characters can also triple jump by jumping with precise timing three times, each time jumping higher than before. The lower trigger buttons center the camera behind characters, while the D-Pad can adjust the camera angle manually. By pressing up on the d-pad, the player can enter a first person perspective.
The player chooses a character via the Character Pipe in the Hub World they are currently at or selects a character before the course begins, similar to Super Mario 3D World. Characters can also collect multiple power-ups and have their effects stack, as opposed to previous games that overwrote the player's abilities when they used a different power-up. This allows for interesting combinations such as Fire Bunny Mario or Oni Ice Marble Rosalina. Additionally, characters become more powerful when using certain powerups as the game progresses and the player collects more Elemental Stars.
Similar to Super Mario Odyssey, the concept of 1-Ups has been more or less completely eliminated. The player's coin count now represents their lives, and they lose 10 upon death, although they can return to the spot where they died to collect them. Coins are also a currency; they can be used to purchase Elemental Stars in the hub worlds or Power-Ups.
All missions are unlocked at the start of each world you visit. When completing a mission and collecting the Elemental Star, the player can return to the Hub World or take on a new mission, with the parameters being set up to do it properly. When collecting Elemental Moons, the player is never asked to go back to the hub world.
==Plot==
After defeating Themis again, Mario and the others return home via Rosalina's Comet Observatory when they bump into a lighthouse. It turns out to be the Cosmic Lighthouse, home to Cosmetta, Rosalina's sister who hasn't seen her in years. They two reunite and then realizes that Cosmetta is about to destroy a planet with a black hole. Rosalina stops Cosmetta but the planet she was just about to destroy breaks apart to reveal a villainous creature named Khrysalis and the Elemental Stars, a villain who blasts the observatory and lighthouse away. Cosmetta shoots at Khrysalis with a black hole gun. Rosalina realizes that the black hole merely relocated Khrysalis into a alternate dimension.
In this alternate dimension, Khrysalis is able to control The Comet Observatory, The Cosmic Lighthouse, Peach's Castle, and Daisy's Kingdom as they soon realize. Khrysalis kidnaps the Toads, the Lumas, Princess Peach, and Princess Daisy with representations of Themis, Bowser, Tatanga, and Slanito. The Elemental Stars were scattered due to Cosmetta's attack and Rosalina realizes that they need to use the Elemental Stars to defeat Khrysalis. Mario, Luigi, Rosalina, and Cosmetta head to find the Elemental Stars to fight Khrysalis and defeat her once and for all.
As they collect the Baron Keys, they find a door that follows them from hubworld to hubworld with four locks, each fitting one of the Baron Keys.

===Elemental Moons===
Elemental Moons are scattered across the levels, usually hidden in plain sight or require less skill to get, although there are a couple of tricky Moons found in the optional challenge levels hidden in Moon Pipes. Each three Elemental Moons are worth 1 Elemental Star. There are a total of 800 Elemental Moons hidden across all the levels and hub worlds and the player is not incentivized to collect them all, but rather to collect them if particular Elemental Stars are too hard to get.
Character	Information

Horomoon	TBA
==Power-Ups==
Power-Ups stack in this game, meaning that the player can have multiple powers to utilize at the same time. Some powers can be written over and some power-ups are exclusive to certain characters, but the player can play around with the variety of power-ups in many unique ways.
Item	Information
Mushroom	The Mushroom is an all-time classic power-up. When you're small and on your last hit, the Mushroom makes you normal size and gives you just one more hit to take.
Fire Flower	Another all time classic power-up. This flower transforms characters into a fire form which is able to throw fireballs which bounce three times before disappearing into the air. These become powered up the more Fire Stars you collect.
Ice Flower	It's appeared before, but this flower transforms characters into a ice form which is able to throw ice balls which bounce three times before disappearing into the air. These turn enemies into ice, which can be picked up and thrown at other enemies or become temporary platforms. These become powered up the more Water Stars you collect.
Thunder Flower	This flower transforms characters into a thunder form which is able to throw thunder which shoots straight without bouncing, zapping enemies and electrifying objects. These become powered up the more Thunder Stars you collect.
Earth Flower	This flower transforms characters into a earth form which is able to throw dirt balls which roll on the ground, becoming bigger as long as they're touching ground and can become temporary platforms. These become powered up the more Earth Stars you collect.
Horoflower	???
Bullet Suit	A limited use power-up similar to the Cloud Flower. It shoots the character forward in the direction they were facing until they reach a wall or stay in the air for 15 seconds before allowing them to drop. It has three charges before the player loses it. This power-up doesn't really stack, however you will not lose any of your power-ups if you use all three charges.
Marble Mushroom	The Marble Mushroom allows characters to take 10 extra hits before reverting to their normal form and allows them to do a hard slide that crushes anything in his way with a uneasy breaking system. This power-up does stack with the other Power-ups, however, you take less hits the more power-ups you have stacked on you.
Solar Mushroom	The Solar Mushroom allows the character to release a powerful one-time explosion of solar power that turns the stage into it's Day Form and removes all the power-ups they've collected on them.
Lunar Mushroom	The Lunar Mushroom allows the character to release a powerful one-time explosion of lunar power that turns the stage into it's Night Form and removes all the power-ups they've collected on them.
Nega Mushroom	The Nega Mushroom allows characters to slip into "Negaverse" cracks, making them black and white. Since these cracks are so thin, these segments are more akin to 2D sidescrolling. All prior power-ups stack. An additional effect while using the Nega Mushroom is that ground stomps travel out farther in a wave, knocking any enemy away within the ground pound's radius.
Chicken Suit	The Chicken Suit transforms characters into a Chicken Form. In this form they can float down slowly and throw eggs similar to fireballs but with less of a bounce and ineffective against fire or water based enemies. This power-up is overwritten by any of the flowers.
Oni Apple	The Oni Apple transforms players into a Oni Form, who can create thundering cloud platforms that move to the left after three seconds and allows them to walk on lava. The clouds and lava walking effects carry over even when the player is using another power-up.
Super Carrot
Art by Peardian	The Super Carrot gives the player the ability to float in mid-air but also charge a super hop that gives a ton of vertical distance. This power-up stacks with just about everything, making it very useful to find.
Cape Feather	The Cape Feather gives characters a cape, which they can use to swipe at enemies with and fly after running. Caped characters can ascend and descend, and can fly for a very long period of time if the player is skilled enough to pull it off. One stray wind will send the player barreling down though!
Blue Shell	The Blue Shell lets players swim faster, and gives them the Hammer Suit-like ability to dodge the attacks of enemies when they crouches. As long as they keep ducking, they will be safely protected from most enemies. They can also Shell Dash by running or sliding fast enough however jumping becomes extremely hard and requires quick reflexes. This stacks with most of the power-ups.
Magma Shell	The Magma Shell lets players swim through lava (not in water though, that acts as lava in the player's case now), and gives them the Hammer Suit-like ability to dodge the attacks of enemies when they crouches. As long as they keep ducking, they will be safely protected from most enemies. They can also Shell Dash by running or sliding fast enough however jumping becomes extremely hard and requires quick reflexes. The Shell Dash also leaves behind a trail of fire that can take out otherwise hard to kill enemies. This stacks with most of the power-ups but replaces the Blue Shell if the player has it. It also gains some extra power the more Fire Stars a player collects.
Biddybud Shell	Allows the player to briefly fly for five seconds, even more if they collect coins. It also removes the character's ability to stomp, meaning that they will just stand or bounce off normally stompable enemies like Goombas. It also causes any nearby Biddybugs to follow the player similar to a certain captain, allowing the player to utilize them as platforms or as a weapon. The Biddybud Shell also allows players to stick to certain surfaces and climb them.
Technocolor Mushroom	
Use the Technocolor Mario amiibo from Nintendo 30 to summon this mystical power-up. It allows you to fly over pits and go through any enemy without stopping. No stars you collect will be counted; this is just for fun.
Classic Mushroom	
Use the Mario 30th Anniversary Collection amiibo from Super Mario Maker to summon this pixellated Mushroom that allows you to play as an 8-bit version of any of the characters. This gives you three extra hits and the heart system from Super Mario Bros. 2.
==Items==
Image 	Info
Star Bit 	Star Bits are collected throughout the levels, being the lowest kind of currency available and not tradable for most of the vendors. They are used to purchase bonus courses from Hungry Lumas and purchase Chance Cubes.
Coin 	A simple coin. They act as a currency in the game, allowing the player to buy items from various vendors in the game.
Red Coin 	These coins only show up in a certain area and they are often close together. If you collect them all, a Elemental Star will appear, allowing you to collect it.
Jade Coin 	These coins are super rare and only have a 1/100th chance of replacing a normal coin. They are worth 50 coins.
Warp Pipe 	Use green pipes these to warp to other areas in the course or Hub World.
Clear Pipe 	Clear Pipes are pipes which make their debut in Super Mario 3D World. Like Warp Pipes, they are used for traveling distances too far for a normal jump to reach. Unlike Warp Pipes, however, Clear Pipes are transparent, and the player can change direction while in one. Additionally, the player automatically enters vertical Clear Pipes without having to press a button. While traveling through Clear Pipes, the player cannot attack and is therefore vulnerable to any enemies inside them. The player can also throw projectiles inside of Clear Pipes.
Amber Pipe 	Amber Pipes are like Clear Pipes in that you can see what's in them, but they're much slower than clear pipes. You can use a cork trap an enemy or boss inside of them, as well as a projectile.
Copper Pipe 	These Copper Pipes spit out enemies and won't stop unless you put a cork on it.
Pixel Pipe 	The Pixel Pipe allows characters to enter the 8-Bit Murals seen across walls or floors, taking a more traditional route to platforming.
Character Pipe 	Introduced in Super Mario Star Journey, these pipes allow players to change characters in the four hub worlds. Unlike Star Journey, there is only one pipe and it merely brings up a menu that allows the player to choose from a list of character icons.
Rocket Pipe 	Rocket Pipes blast the player off into the sky and are useful if you have a flying power-up. The are returning from New Super Mario Bros. Omega and have a new appearance in this game.
Star Pipe 	These Star Pipes send players to optional Star Challenges, much harder versions of Missions in the game.
Moon Pipe 	Moon Pipes send players to Challenge Worlds, which are linear challenge levels holding special Elemental Moons.
Aurora Pipe 	The Aurora Pipe blasts the player running with the effects of a Star power-up. These pipes are key in some races. Characters warp in and out of these pipes much much faster than usual pipes as well.
Roulette Block 	Roulette Blocks display items inside of them; when the player hits them, the item that displays on the block will be given out.
Colored Brick Blocks	Colored Brick Blocks tend to block access to the next level on the hub world or secret areas in some of the main worlds. These secret entrances usually always contain at least one Elemental Moon. They can be broken using a power-up Flower, with their colors indicating which elemental flower needs to be used to destroy them.
*Red - A Fire Charge from a Fire Flower
*Orange - A Inferno Charge from a Fire Flower
*Cyan - A Ice Charge from a Ice Flower
*Dark Blue - A Blizzard Charge from a Ice Flower
*Yellow - A Thunder Charge from a Thunder Flower
*Grey - A Storm Charge from a Thunder Flower
*Lime - A Earth Charge from a Earth Flower
*Dark Green - A Gaia Charge from a Earth Flower
Wooden Cork 	These will shut off Copper Pipes for a minute in real-time before the enemies chew their way through.
Golden Cork 	These will shut off Copper Pipes forever unless the player deattaches the cork from the Copper Pipe.
Propeller Box 	A Propeller Box is a power-up first seen in Super Mario 3D Land. The player is able to wear it over their bodies. The blades of the propeller can be used to rapidly fly into the air to a great height, and then slowly fall back down towards the ground. The Propeller Box is lost once the player finishes a level, but an extra life is rewarded. While wearing a Propeller Box, nobody can use attacks.
Light Box 	A Light Box is an object that first appeared in Super Mario 3D World. It can be worn over the player's body. Light Boxes can be found and worn by players in certain levels. Upon wearing one, the block will change into the color depending on the character and the lamp on the front will emit a beam of light, which can be used to not only light up any dark spaces in front of the player, but also to defeat ghost enemies, such as Peepas, Boos and Big Boos, a method similar to that of Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2. However, unlike the aforementioned games, the beam of light must be shone on the enemy for a short period of time to defeat it.
Dark Box 	The Dark Box is an object that makes it's debut in Super Mario: Elemental Journey. It can be worn over the player's body like the Light Box. Upon wearing it, the box will emit a beam of darkness as opposed to light. This darkness is so dense that an enemy will not see you even if you're right in front of him, however the player must have the dark beam directly on the enemy. It can also be used to help Boo Beatrice cross across areas of extreme light.
Bug Zapper Box 	The Bug Zapper Box is an object that makes it's debut in Super Mario: Elemental Journey. It attracts insects and Goombas to it's enchanting light, only to stun or defeat them as soon as they touch Mario and friends. It can also shoot a orb of light out, harming anyone in it's way.
Cannon Box 	The Cannon Box is an item that first appeared in Super Mario 3D World. It can be worn like the other Box items. Upon wearing it, it will fire cannonballs. The player can charge these projectiles to increase the distance at which they travel. They can collect items and break blocks as well as defeat enemies.
Warp Box 	Warp Boxes are square objects appearing in Super Mario 3D Land and Super Mario 3D World. Warp Boxes are orange, outlined clear boxes with exclamation marks on the sides. When characters run into a Warp Box, they are teleported to another Warp Box in another area.
Goomba Mask 	Introduced in 3D World, the Goomba Mask is a mask of a Goomba that makes the player look similar to a Goomba. Upon wearing it, some enemies capable of noticing the character's presence will not recognize the player nor attack them. Also, Spotlights will not react if the player is within sight. However, contact with enemies will still cause damage, removing the mask. Power-ups cannot be used, but Peach's float is still usable.
Universal Keys 	A mysterious Mario-like figure with a key on their head that players have copy their movements from a distance to open doors or power and machines. They have no method of attack and are controlled via wand.
Ice Block 	This chilly block can be thrown at enemies to freeze them, similar to the effects of a Ice Flower's ice balls. This can be used by any character.
Magma Block 	This hot block can be thrown at enemies to damage them or set them on fire, not unlike a Fire Flower's fire balls. These can be used by any character.
Thunder Block 	This shocking block can be thrown at enemies to shock them, similar to the effects of a Thunder Flower and it's thunder balls. These can be used by any character.
Earth Block 	This earthly block can be thrown at enemies to encase them into balls or blocks of dirt, which can be used as platforms. They will also do this when they make contact with a wall. These can be used by any character.
Gold Block 	Reappearing from New Super Mario Bros. 2, the Gold Block is a rare block that shows up after a player collects 10 coins from a single block. The 11th hit to the block will instead case the player's head, allowing them to collect coins as they run. They can keep collecting coins until they get hit or when they collect 100 coins.
Pauline's Tokens 	Reappearing from Mario vs Donkey Kong: Return to New Donk City, Pauline's Tokens are found in one of the Thunder Star missions, spread across New Donk Laboratories. All three must be found to gain the Thunder Star.
==Mounts==
Animals which Mario and friends can ride on for some levels.
Image 	Info
Plessie 	Plessie is a large, friendly nothosaur that debuted in Super Mario 3D World. To control Plessie, players can tilt the control stick or the control pad, depending on the controller. To speed up, players can tilt up, and to slow down, players can tilt down. Players can also press the jump button to jump, which can be used to defeat enemies and reach higher ground.
Fluzzard 	Fluzzard is a shy bird character that made his first appearance in Super Mario Galaxy 2. Players must control Fluzzard by pointing the joystick in the direction they want to go. Pointing it upwards makes Fluzzard slow down and gain minimal height. Pointing it downwards makes him execute a fast nose-dive. Moving it towards either side causes Fluzzard to tilt towards that side.
Jaxi 	Jaxi is a bipedal and animate statue that goes at a very fast pace, requiring liberal use of the brake and control of Jaxi's speed. Jaxi can be controlled using the control stick and then a button to slow him down a bit, although he will pick up at max speed if the player brakes too long. He first appeared in Super Mario Odyssey.
Cow Chomp	Originating from New Super Mario Bros: The Underground, Sheriff Shy Guy teaches you how to ride it. Players must control the Cow Chomp by moving it in the direction they want it to do. The Cow Chomp moves by jumping, so it's a very frantic and hard to control ride, but not too much to be frustrating.
==Hub Worlds==
There are four initial hubworlds, each with their own unique set of stars and levels. Each world has a Baron, a final boss of sorts that holds a Baron Key. Each Baron must be defeated to open the last world. The player can switch from hub world to hub world using the portal gates.
===Peach's Castle===
Peach's Castle is the first hubworld and is home to all of the Fire Stars. The Baron of this Hub World is Painted Bowser. The player must navigate the hubworld's levels by going into paintings similar to Super Mario 64.

==Enemies==
Enemy	Information
Goomba	Goombas are the easiest enemies that players have to deal with. They can either spin them away or stomp on them to defeat them. Goombas run towards players if they spot them.
Goombulb	It attacks just like a normal Goomba, but appears in dark rooms underground to light the way for player. Players have to defeat them by jumping on them twice, the first jump breaking the illuminating shell around the Goomba.
Kamikaze Goomba	Leap from above to strike, getting dizzy if they miss their target. Once dizzy, players can simply kick them away. They can also stomp on them before they jump.
Goomball	These spherical goombas roll around and if they spot Mario, roll towards him. They can be stomped like normal Goombas.
Kug 	Kugs are fake Goombas that vomit up a black noxious fluid if they see a character, before running towards them. If a character stomps on them, they'll explode into a harmful black fluid. The only way to kill a Kug without being harmed is through a projectile.
Piranha Goomba	Piranha Goombas come out of pipes similar to a Piranha plant, but Mario can stomp their heads. They can also switch from pipe to pipe, and if they switch to a clear pipe they'll be sucked out and act as a normal Goomba.
Blue Piranha Goomba	These three headed Goombas have to stomped individually, making it a total of three stomps you have to preform before they're gone. Much like the original enemy they're based off, they can switch from pipe to pipe but clear pipes will suck them out and have them walk around like normal Goombas.
Golden Goomba	Golden Goombas act very similarly to Goombas except they'll sometimes leave behind a coin. They leave up to five coins and somewhat incentivize players to not stomp on them right away.
Ruby Goomba	Ruby Goombas act like regular Goombas except they drop a Red Coin upon defeat.
Jade Goomba	Jade Goombas act like regular Goombas except they drop a Jade Coin upon defeat. They are extremely rare and usually in out of reach places, requiring some creative thinking.
Goomborg	Goomborgs are strange Goombas that can't die through traditional means; they absorb the player's feet (requiring a shake or a button mash out) if they attempt to stomp them, they absorb projectiles and other enemies once they come in contact with them. They become bigger with the more things they absorb. If they absorb too much, they explode and often leave behind a Elemental Moon.
Biddybud	Biddybuds resemble multicoloured ladybugs and act like regular Goombas, though they don't chase Mario and Luigi when they're in sight.
Para Biddybud	Para Buiddybuds enerally appear in groups of five, though they can appear in groups of a less number or appear individually. They fly up and down in a circles or in lines and Mario can stomp on them.
Koopa Troopa	Koopas are enemies that Mario and others can defeat in a stomp, leaving behind a shell that they can kick, grab, or use underwater to travel faster. Koopa Troopas run toward perceived threats.
Troopuiose	Morton Sr. used these in his reign. These proto-Koopa Troopas can still have their shells stolen but they won't slide across the ground, instead acting as a weight for switches. No matter how much you kick their shells, it won't budge.
Blue-Shelled Troopuiose	These Troopuiose live underground and have adapted to the darker atmosphere underneath. They wear Blue Shells which can be turned into a power-up for Mario and friends to use.
Magma-Shelled Troopuiose	These Troopuiose live underground and have adapted to the darker atmosphere underneath. They wear Magma Shells which can be turned into a power-up for Mario and friends to use.
Yoshi Troopa	Koopa Troopas disguised as Yoshis that hatch from Eggs. Watch out! They're nothing but a cunning trap.
Marble Koopa Troopa	Marble Koopas have to be stomped on five times to release their marble shell, which is faster and more powerful than a normal shell, able to topple pillars in their wake.
Drill Bit
Art by Peardian	Drill Bits attempt to drill into Mario and friends when they see them, somewhat similar to how Goombas and Koopas react. Mario can defeat them by stomping them three times, with each stop drilling them into the ground.
Octolot
Art by Peardian	Octolots hover and attack with magic, somewhat similar to Magikoopas, although their magic can be countered with a projectile or melee attack. By stomping them or throwing a projectile attack at them, they are defeated.
Splorch	Splorches pop out of lava and roll towards the players. They can be pushed back into the lava using projectiles or a spin. Splorches also leave a trail of lava that damages the players. They cannot be truly defeated.
Hammer Bro	TBA
Baseball Bro	TBA
Batter Bro	TBA
Bullet Bill	TBA
Freezy Bills	When these are fired from their cannons, they leave a trail of ice that Mario can ride along on. They must be picked up via Super Mario Bros. 2 if the player wants to defeat them.
Firework Bills	These Bullet Bills are fired from a cannon and split into a dozen tinier Bullet Bills that track Mario and friends from the sky. They easily loose track of their targets and explode into a shower of fireworks 5 seconds after, but stay alert!
Black Hole Bills	These Bullet Bills explode and contract into a Black Hole when they meet their target. They can be diverted using a Light Cannon but otherwise they will explode into a black hole. They were reverse engineered from Cosmetta's black hole gun.
Fuzzy	When Fuzzies touch a player, it disorients their controls and vision. They can be destroyed with projectiles; just don't touch Fuzzy!
Cosmic Clone	Cosmic Clones duplicate the movements of the player, requiring the player to make sure they're always a step ahead of these shadowy duplicates or risk getting hit. If the player gets hit by a clone, they receive damage and the clone vanishes, but there are always about 3 clones always trailing behind the player, with more created to replace ones that vanish.
Fire Lakitu	TBA
Water Lakitu	TBA
Thunder Lakitu	TBA
Earth Lakitu	TBA
Boo 	Boos are ghosts that are terribly shy, to the point where they can't move if Mario looks at them! However, despite their social anxiety, they can still be a rather deadly foe if Mario isn't looking at them.
Dark Boo	Dark Boos only move when Mario is looking at them, but when he isn't they'll fire a purple fire ball if Mario is still in range.
Solar Keeper Boo	Solar Keeper Boos hold Solar Mushrooms in them to prevent the sun from ever rising again. They are also very wary of light, meaning you'll have to chase them with light to defeat them and take the Solar Mushroom from them.
Biddyboo	Biddyboos are a crossbreed of a Biddybud and a Boo. They come in groups of five. They can't be stomped and are harmful to the touch, but only move in the circle or line they're in if Mario's not looking. The player can stand on them if he is wearing a Biddybud Shell.
Bully	Bullies charge themselves into their enemies in order to push them over ledges, knocking their enemies into lava or bottomless pits. The only way for players to beat a Bully is to push it into the lava or use projectiles to do so- they can also be stomped via Thwomp.
Furnace Bully	These Bullies explode after being pushed around too much; either push them into the lava or get clear away from them before they explode.
Underwater Bully	These Bullies swim around under the water, pushing the player downwards to drown them. They can be sucked out via pushing them towards a Clear or Amber Pipe that's around.
Bully Mask Goomba	These Goombas can't be stomped due to their incredibly hard mask, but they can be taken out from below, knocking their mask off. They act like normal Goombas behaviorally but lose their ability to really hurt Mario and don't push him as hard as Bullies do.
Thwomp	Returning to an even more blue-ish color, these Thwomps still haven't changed at all in function. If a character is close, they'll drop down, flattening anything under them. The player can climb on the top of them as a platform.
Magma Thwomp	These Thwomps are just boiling mad, so much so that they rise and drop into lava with nary a scratch!
Ocean Thwomp	These Thwomps just go right through characters, absorbing and then spitting them out. They'll pretty much eat all your power-ups and leave you in your weakest form, and you best not come back or they'll just kill you. Don't get on top of them either, they're pretty much liquid and you'll suffer the same fate.
Freezy Thwomp	These Thwomps freeze anything within their radius when they drop. You can still climb on top of them, and if you happen to be on top of them when they drop, you won't be effected by the chilly blast.
Cloud Thwomp	These Thwomps are high in the sky, floating just like all the other clouds. If they see the player near them, they'll drop extremely fast before going back up if there's no ground below them.
Sand Thwomp	These Thwomps are made of sand, so when they drop, they explode into grains of sand. The player can stand on top of the sand and as the Sand Thwomp reconstructs, become part of the Sand Thwomp. In the Sand Thwomp form, the player has limited mobility when walking and cannot attack. Most enemies will ignore the player and their sliding becomes very fast. They can also place the Sand Thwomp anywhere they want and exit it.
Walleye	Walleyes scoot to the left and right to block the player. Their sides and top are not safe to touch but their front and back are. They can be stunned with projectiles and destroyed with high star level flower charges.
Dry Bones	Dry Bones are undead Koopas who revive themselves seconds after being stomped on. While they can't truly die, it's best to incapacitate them when you can. Spreading their pieces can make the revival period just a bit longer.
Dull Bones	Dull Bones are undead Koopas who can't actually revive themselves after being stomped on and don't even leave a shell for the trouble. No wonder they're called Dull Bones!
Polluted Piranha	Polluted Piranhas can only be defeated through the freezing effects of a Ice Flower or a Ice Block. Doing so will freeze them up and damage them. They must be either be hit with a Ice Block three times or hit with nine Ice Balls. They summon Goobles to defend themselves.
Goobles	Goobles stroll around casually until they spot the player, in which they Swoop towards them to attack. They can be taken out using ice blocks or ice balls, as well as a stomp, although stomping in the air is preferred. If they are stomped on the ground, they leave a goop puddle that's toxic to the touch.
Blokkablok	Blokkabloks are enemies that fly around, containing up to 7 different blocks across their body. They cannot attack traditionally, merely hovering around in a set route. The player can destroy their blocks, although they should be careful in case the Blokkablok turns their blocks on the other side, causing the player to hit a spike if they are not careful. When all blocks are destroyed, the Blokkablok ceases to be.

Dry Morton Sr.	TBA
Morty Kid	Morty Kid is more or less Morton Sr's version of Koopa Kid. He protects the old Fire Star from intruders and he indentifies you as one. He has a short fire breath and a room shaking ground pound but he can be defeated with three stomps to his head. He releases a Fire Star and a mysterious book (entitled "Project Excalibur") upon defeat.
Jumpy Koopa	It's been a while since him and Mario have clashed. Jumpy Koopa is looking to retain his victory; that's all he cares about, is getting one over Mario again. He can use the same power-ups that Mario and friends can use, but doesn't benefit from the power of the elemental stars. He can also jump to dodge attacks and throw his own shell.
Major Burrows	TBA
Lakithunder	TBA
Motley Bossblob (Malachite Magic)	TBA
Motley Bossblob (Opal Overlord)	TBA
Prince Bully	TBA
King Nabbit	King Nabbit is the self proclaimed king of the Nabbits and is kind of a bad ruler at that; to the point where the Nabbits are using Mario and his friends to incite a revolution. You see, King Nabbit put up a stealing tax, meaning that 50% of anything that a Nabbit steals go to the greedy king. King Nabbit attacks with a wand he stole from a Magikoopa. The player must grab valuable things and lure King Nabbit over so that they can stomp on his back as he bends over. This must be done three times.

==Project Excalibur Storybook==
When the player defeats Morty Kid, he drops a book entitled Project Excalibur. This book can be read at any of the main hubs and details the events and people before the current circumstances in the game. Specifically, the former rulers of the Mushroom Kingdom, what became Bowser's domain, Sarasaland, and the Cosmic Lighthouse.
The storybook begins with the birth of Khrysalis, created through cosmic energy and crystals. Khrysalis discovers her reality warping powers and since her understanding of the universe is so limited, she plays with the armies of Estrella and Ninna's Mushroom Kingdom, Morton Sr's domain, and Sarasaland. As the kingdoms are confused and not understanding why they're at war with each other, a Bandit by the name of Nocturne comes across Khryalis.
Nocturne tells the kingdoms why they are war and they discover that their elemental powers can encase Khryalis with its own protective shell. They mass produce elemental stars of Fire, Water, Thunder, and Earth using resources from all over the universe. When they have created enough Elemental Stars, Khryalis traps themselves into a protective shell. Estrella and Ninna leave the Mushroom Kingdom to observe the creature, to make sure it doesn't become free as Morton Sr. has two sons.
The end of the book reveals that Nocturne would later kidnap the baby Cosmetta to replace his role of the Cosmic Lighthouse's keeper. It also reveals that his current coordinates exist in an alternate dimension.

==Trivia==
*The idea for Freezy Bill came from .
*Metal Head originates from the motion captured masterpiece that is the Donkey Kong Country television series. It originally appeared in the episode The Big Switch-A-Roo and had it's own music number.
*This is Koopa Kid's first appearance in any Mario related media since 2005 (Mario Party Advance being his last appearance).
**It is also likely his first appearance in a main line Mario game and his first playable appearance in one.
*This also sees the return of many enemies and characters that were previously only seen in the RPGs.
*Stratus' design was intentionally based off the musical artist Darude.
