Grand Gauntlet Galaxy

Grand Gauntlet Galaxy is a galaxy that appears in Super Mario Galaxy Fractured (CFJ). It is a Grandmaster Galaxy-inspired galaxy, though it has been made to be not quite as challenging. It consists of a hub planet and 5 obstacle courses of different themes, each containing a Silver Star at the end.
== Planets ==
=== Starting Planet(s) ===
The Starting Planet is the hub of the Galaxy. It is a large spire-like planet with 6 different floors. The main area which Mario first lands on is a bowl-shaped area with the center of the planet being cut out, and a beacon in the center shining all the way to the top. Falling through this area means Mario will be pulled back to a safe place on the planet. A teleporter is on the other side of the bowl part of the planet which upon Mario entering, takes him to the first obstacle course. The planet is decorated with various flowers of different colors. Every time Mario collects a Silver Star, upon returning Silver Assembly Blocks will guide Mario to the next floor of the planet. The second floor is connected to the first floor of the planet, and consists of two oval-shaped flower beds. Finding a hidden switch in both flower beds spawns a teleporter in between the two flower beds, supported by another Silver Assembly Block. After the second Silver Star is collected, a Sling Star activates to take Mario to the third floor, on a planet separated from the first but still listed as being one planet. He lands on another assembly block and must repeat the same tasks as the second floor required. This second planet has a circular shape but has a part of it cut off, and the flower beds are connected to the planet from the bottom rather than the top. Once the third Silver Star is collected, Mario must use the Sling Star to go to the fourth floor, landing on the near-circular planet. Mario must spin two Sproutle Vine patches on opposite sides of the planet in order to reach the teleporter supported by a Silver Assembly Block. Once the fourth Silver Star is collected, Mario must use a Sling Star to reach the final floor, on a planet which is shaped similarly to the one before, but without flower beds. It is a flat planet with the same shape as the previous one. Mario must hit two Ground Pound switches to activate the Teleporter, which will take him to the final section. Once the final Silver Star is collected, the beacon fades and a Grand Star appears in the center of the bowl planet with a small Silver Assembly Block in the center. Mario must jump all the way to the bottom to grab the Grand Star.
=== Flip-Swap Obstacle Course ===
The first Silver Star is found at the end of a long Flip Swap Galaxy inspired section. Flip Swap panels have only been used in one mission in Cold Cove Galaxy up to this point, but the section is relatively simple with the exception of some tight wall jumps which have to be cleared by spinning to get the panels to switch.
=== Toy Time Obstacle Course ===
The second Silver Star is found at the end of a Toy Time Galaxy inspired section. Mario first appears on a toy block and must immediately run to a train that is taking off. Magikoopas, Hammer Bros, Fire Nozzles, Bats, Mines and Cannonballs all appear along the ride to the Silver Star. There are several sections Mario must rush through, most of which are blocky sections or avoiding spinning toy cogs or other machinery.
=== Slimy Spring Obstacle Course ===
The third Silver Star is found at the end of a Slimy Spring Galaxy inspired section. Mario must grab a Koopa Shell and jump down a large waterfall, and must swim with the shell through a multitude of tight sections with water going in all sorts of directions. Snoodles, Boos, Urchins and Gringills all appear here. At the end of the section, Mario must break open a Treasure Chest containing the Silver Star.
=== Bubble Obstacle Course ===
The fourth Silver Star is found at the end of a Bubble Breeze Galaxy inspired section. Mario appears on a small island with only a bubble dispenser. Mario must use the bubble to navigate a tight maze filled with mines, electric fences, and Paragoombas. If Mario falls out of the bubble, poison lurks below.
=== Melty Molten Obstacle Course ===
The final Silver Star is found at the end of a Melty Molten Galaxy inspired section. Mario must run along a long cylindrical lava planet while avoiding Fireballs, Lava Bubbles, Lava Geysers, Lil Cinders, Dry Bones, Octoombas and Boulders all appear here.
