Motos Factory

***Motos Factory*** is an area in **B3313**.

## Description

True to the name of the lobby it's accessed from, Motos Factory is a fairly challenging level with lots of dangerous elements and gimmicks, but is well worth exploring for the plethora of stars it offers. It is a factory owned by Bowser which presumably specializes in the production and manufacturing of the Motos enemy. It is inhabited by several enemies from the game, including Blaarggs, Mr. Is, Swoops, Goombas, Amps, Snifits, and of course, the titular Motos himself. There are also several Rindels and Spindels who are retextured to resemble Motos as well, but otherwise behave identically.

Due to the abundance of lava and hazardous material in this course, it is one of the few areas in the game where having the Metal Cap is actually beneficial, as although not required, it makes traversal through the level much easier, in addition to easily dispatching the Yellow/Orange Goombas. One can even more easily reach certain Stars by abusing Metal Mario's invincibility to bounce off of the lava and gain greater height.

In the large conveyor belt room, one of the forks leads to a hole in the wall with a silver coin inside it. Collecting this coin warps the entire level into a darkened state, with the way out blocked off with a wall of bricks. Continuing forward into the darkness, one will find a tunnel leading to a giant crusher flattening the corpse of Luigi, along with a certain familiar entity waiting to ambush you.

## Origins

The area's layout is an original creation, and so are most of the "mechanical" enemies, with the exception of the Motos, a scrapped enemy found in the 2020 gigaleak.

The music playing is an original track by Christopher Rios Lillo, containing leitmotifs from Lethal Lava Land, Bowser in the Dark World, Bowser in the Sky and HMC/WDW (Cave Dungeon).

## Stars

Motos Factory has quite possibly the largest amount of Stars obtainable in any single B3313 level, with the course holding a whopping 11 different Stars to collect within its painting:

* Upon reaching the central room, jumping on the rotating gears to the right of the crusher will let you reach a star suspended in midair.
* Collect the 8 Red Coins to summon a Star.
* Grab the Vanish Cap and run through the metal grate next to it to encounter a Star.
* Grab the Vanish Cap and run through the metal grate on the other side of the room to encounter a tunnel, then defeat the Large Motos boss to procure the Star.
* Platform over a large bottomless pit with tilting platforms and Flip Panels to encounter a Star.
* Upon entering the large room with many conveyor belts, one will find the path splitting off into several different directions. Of these 6 directions, 5 of them each contain a Power Star for the player to collect (with the final one offering a nasty secret instead...). In order to reach each Star, the player will have to go through a unique parkour challenge interacting with the level's various gimmicks.
* Upon entering the large room with many conveyor belts, go straight and complete a short shell riding course over lava and gears to reach a Star.

## Trivia

* The "Cave Dungeon" mentioned by the sign is an actual level that can be encountered from Star Road.
* Speaking to the friendly Motos, he will say that if you sign the form you will receive a Star in 6 to 9 months. Despite 0.9's addition of RTC functions, it is unlikely that one will actually get a star by waiting that long, and there is no way to sign the paper on the table anyway.
* In the break room, there is a noticeable hole in the wall that is too small to crawl through. Its purpose is unknown.
* As opposed to the X-eyed body of Luigi found drowned in the Fountain of Truth, the body of Luigi seen in the crusher has open eyes and blinks as if he's still alive.
