The Spin-Dig Galaxy is the a galaxy in the game Super Mario Galaxy 2. It marks the first appearance of the Spin Drill. It is represented by its starting planet with the Spin Drill in one of the depressions.

Missions[]

Digga-Leg's Planet[]

The player starts on an elevated platform on the Starting Planet surrounded by Diggas. In one of the indents of the planet, the player can find a Spin Drill they can use to burrow through the planet. Using the Spin Drill on the indent located just below the starting platform will lead the player to the highest platform where they will find a Luma that will transform into a Launch Star when talked to, leading to the next planet. On the Drill Zone Planet, the player has to use the Spin Drill on a slightly raised square platform to dig through the planet and end up on a raised platform on the other side. By continuing to dig through the platforms, the player will find another Luma that will transform into a Launch Star. On the Steel Ring Planet, the player has to cross disappearing platforms to reach a ring of Coins on a block to the left, where a Luma will catch up with the player and turn into a Launch Star. On the Dirt Tower Planet, the player has to use a Spin Drill to drill into the hollow planet and use the drill again to reach a Launch Star above. The Launch Star will send the player to a Starshroom where they will meet the Toad Brigade Captain. The Launch Star on the underside of the Starshroom will send the player to the planet where Digga-Leg is fought.

Digga-Leg will boot up and start attacking as soon as the player lands on the planet. It will send out Diggas through the planet to attack the player and Digga-Leg will also jump around the stage, attempting to crush the player. Using a Spin Drill, the player has to burrow through the planet and attack Digga-Leg when the cage holding the Power Star is on the bottom of Digga-Leg. After damaging Digga-Leg three times, it will explode and the Power Star will be released.

Silver Stars Down Deep[]

The player starts on a raised platform on the Starting Planet, like with the last mission. However, once the player steps off the platform, Cosmic Clones will appear and follow the player's movements. By breaking open a crystal and using the Sling Star inside, the player can reach a platform with a Piranha Plant that will reveal a Sproutle Vine when defeated. The vine will lead the player to the Purple Cylinder Planet, and entering the Warp Pipe will take them inside to a two-dimensional platforming room with dirt the player has to dig through using the Spin Drill. By lining their drills with the sloped walls in the dirt, the player can get around to the Warp Pipe that leads to the next area, where they have to dig through dirt while also avoiding moving Amps. The Warp Pipe at the end will take the player to a Launch Star that will send the player to a Starshroom, and the Launch Star there will take the player to the Square Planet where the Silver Stars are found. By using a Spin Drill to dig through the dark patches, the player can enter the hollowed out planet and collect the five Silver Stars, one of which is located on the planet's surface. Once all five Silver Stars are collected, the Power Star will appear.

Digga-Leg's Daredevil Run (Daredevil Comet in Orbit)[]

This mission takes place solely on the Digga-Leg Planet. Digga-Leg's tactics and method of defeating it remain the same, however, if the player gets damaged, they have to start the battle over. After attacking Digga-Leg three times by drilling into the cage beneath him with the Spin Drill power-up, the Power Star will be released from the cage.

Trivia[]

  • The backbeat of the music in this galaxy sounds slightly similar to the music that plays when Mario collects a Fire Flower or Ice Flower.
  • The entire galaxy is contained inside what appears to be an enormous, rocky sphere with giant holes in it, the appearance of which is similar to the large sun in Bowser's Galaxy Reactor as well as the Melty Molten Galaxy which was contained in a massive core.
  • The galaxy's name is a pun on "shindig."
  • It is possible that since Digga-Leg very much resembles Megaleg from the first game's Bowser Jr.'s Robot Reactor, that the name of the level "Digga-Leg's Planet" could be compared to the level name "Megaleg's Moon".
