TheGold Leaf Galaxy is a galaxy inSuper Mario Galaxy and itsNintendo Switchport that can be accessed from theEngine Room. The galaxy is an autumn version ofHoneyhive Galaxy, with the galaxy's file name even being titled "ReverseKingdomGalaxy", and it even shares the music from that galaxy, though it has some changes, such as the removal of the cave behind the waterfall and the planet being mirrored.

This is one of the threebee-themed galaxies in the game, the other two being the Honeyhive Galaxy andHoneyclimb Galaxy, though it is the only bee-themed galaxy to not have "honey" in the name.

Planets/Areas[edit]

Reverse Kingdom Planet[edit]

The Reverse Kingdom Planet^[1] is almost identical to themain planet of the Honeyhive Galaxy, but it contains some differences. The most notable of these changes include:

• The planet now shares an autumn theme, and is flipped relative to the original planet.
• The cave behind the waterfall no longer exists, as well as the platforming section on the backside of the planet.
• The large bunches of trees that cast shade on the upper lake of the original planet that later carried the watchtower are no longer present.
• The hill with a hole that Ruby Rocks exited from has had its top half cut off.

To the left of the starting area, there areStar Bits that form the letter "L", most likely referring toLuigi, and to the right, the Star Bits form the letter "M", most likely referring toMario. The planet also containsleaf piles that release acoin or three Star Bits when the playerSpins them. A? Coin can be found under the planet, and when it is collected, it transforms into aSling Star and a line of coins that lead to aWarp Pipe at the top of the waterfall. The player can also obtain a1-Up Mushroom at the top of the skinny tree on the structure housing boulders.

In the first mission "Star Bunnies on the Hunt", five BlueStar Chips scattered across the planet which must be found by Mario, who is given hints to their locations by theStar Bunnies. In the second mission "Cataquack to the Skies", many blueCataquacks that are owned by theHoneybees cover the starting planet. In the third mission "When It Rains, It Pours", an observation deck appears on the planet. The observation deck is taken over by theUndergrunt Gunner, which is anUndergrunt in a bubble cannon.

The Bump Appear Planet^[2] is a big wooden planet with several water pools with grates over them. A switch can be found on this planet, which moves the grates and makes wooden pegs pop out of the ground.Sliding blocks appear on the planet. These blocks can slide around and appear to be transparent.

Poihana Relay Planet[edit]

The Poihana Relay Planet^[3] is a small wooden planet with a small pool, twoWigglers, and a Cataquack. By causing the Cataquack to stand on its symbol, Mario can be launched up to the next planet.

Poihana Maze Planet[edit]

The Poihana Maze Planet^[4] is a small planet that has a resemblance to thePuzzle Cube from theGusty Garden Galaxy. It features a maze with manycrates. Similary to the Poihana Relay Planet, Mario must lead the Cataquack on the planet through the maze to get it to stand on its designated symbol. The Cataquack can then launch Mario up to the next planet.

M Shape Relay Planet[edit]

The M Shape Relay Planet^[5] is a line shaped like a "M" that contains three Cataquacks. Like the previous planets, Mario must lure one of the Cataquacks to stand on the end of the planet, which allows it to launch Mario up to reach the next planet.

Flower Planet[edit]

The Flower Planet^[6] is a big round planet with a grass, dirt, and pool area and a floatingflowers. There are also two tall towers, with one sharing a close resemblance to aJenga tower.
