Kaizo Mario Galaxy 2 Rainbow Stars | Abandoned Observatory Galaxy - The Ultimate Challenge

[@spouwnerring]

So this how it would look like if Bowser legitimately attacked The Comet Observitory.

[@Corknast]

yup

[@michaeljordan5630]

That should be for Super Mario galaxy 3

[@Underscored_Pawn]

The fact that you get a grand star from a comet sums up how difficult this level is

[@The_Clanker]

It is pretty cool you get a grand star for this level

[@ConnorTheGamer]

It’s because the 5 Comet Power Stars combined into a Grand Star in this level because it’s super hard

[@zenodreemurr2093]

"Wow. And I thought I was bad at hiding my save stating." No offense. It's purely for the joke. I probably wouldn't even dare to attempt this.

[@The_Clanker]

It definitely is a difficult star because of all the stuff you have to do without getting hit and collecting all the purple coins

[@givrally]

This level really exemplifies why I love Kaizo Mario Galaxy 1 & 2, it's clear that those hacks were made by someone who truly knows and loves the game. While it does get "enemy spamey" at times, it's not difficulty for difficulty's sake, their author always tries to do more with less. Removing a few elements, blocking a door, locking a moving platform in place, all those things are very small but well thought out changes that make the levels take a completely different direction. (Apart from a few spots that needed balancing) you don't go "Oh, what, that's so unfair", it makes you go "Oh no way he did that, I can't believe that's even possible, that's genius". And then you get to the levels that, while still keeping up the difficulty, are here for the experience, like the comet observatory. After all you've gone through in this game, you end up at the comet observatory from SMG1, but as an actual level, how great is that ? You can't help but love the dedication to not only make it a playable level, but also to make it one of the hardest, all for that final moment getting the Grand Star. As far as SMG1/2 hacks go, the KaizoMG series is one of the best.

[@The_Clanker]

The KMG1+2 mods have a lot of creative ideas that make the levels both difficult and fun

[@maxhowlett9661]

This is utterly insane. Great job!

[@The_Clanker]

This level is deffinelty one of the most difficult levels in this mod

[@geometrydashgamer8311]

Holy crap, this makes the perfect run look super easy in comparison😭. How many tries did this take you?

[@The_Clanker]

This did take several attempts to get it just right

[@heresacaterpillarifoundinm8679]

Huh, he just needs 20 le- *SPRING MUSHROOM???*

[@The_Clanker]

The spring mushroom is somewhat annoying if you don't know how to control it

[@mk_neko_yt6743]

imagine dying by kamek trying to get the star...

[@The_Clanker]

That would be brutal if that happened

[@guichongalaxy9633]

Omg it's for me the hardest level i never seen! 😮

[@The_Clanker]

This is probably the hardest level in the entire mod

[@guichongalaxy9633]

@@The_Clanker I'm totally agree!

[@chino5682]

omg it's so fricking difficult

[@The_Clanker]

This is definitely one of the hardest stars as to even unlock it you have to get every normal star, beat final bowser again and then collect every single rainbow star

[@coriseoris]

I should try this but I'm still on the fountain in kaizo galaxy 1...

[@hwelse]

2:54 Wait so... did the Cosmic Clone spin-attack that enemy??? I had no idea Cosmic Clones could interact with other enemies like that, omg

[@The_Clanker]

That was the Chain chomp that hit the enemy

[@Mightyheart1999]

11 minutes and 57 seconds is an oddly specific time to complete this level. 🤣

[@truth5764]

The camera was not doing you any favors here lol

[@ConnorTheGamer]

For The Ultimate Challenge of the Abandoned Observatory Galaxy, Combine 5 Comet Power Stars (Speed Run, Daredevil Run, Cosmic Clones, Fast Foes, and Purple Coins) and Collect 100 Purple Coins, and you get rewarded a Grand Star. The reason why you get rewarded a Grand Star in The Ultimate Challenge is because of how difficult the level is.

[@The_Clanker]

It likely also gives you a Grand Star because it’s the one of the last stars

[@sellosqueez6278]

I don't even know how you're supposed to do this without save states LOL. Is there any record of someone doing it?

[@The_Clanker]

I do know that a KZbinr called "TheYellowSquid" beat this star but it took him around 21 hours to do

[@CarlyTaylor-s1s]

Why are cosmic clones at the comet observatory

[@The_Clanker]

It is to make the level more difficult and it is a mix of all the “comet” level effects as we have the “speed-run” effect, the fast foes effect, the daredevil effect, the cosmic clones effect and the purple coins effect

[@DefinedSkunk]

Good video but you should’ve let the timer to still keep going down despite you collecting all 100 as it does that in the original game to add more difficulty and challenge

[@The_Clanker]

I didn't make the mod so I could not do that sort of thing

[@Thom_Harry777]

Does this game have 274 stars?

[@The_Clanker]

Yes the mod has 274 stars

[@madixjensen7070]

Ahhhhhh
