Introduction

Super Mario Sunshine 2: Revenge of the Dark Star (SMS2 for short) is a new installment to the 3D Mario franchise. It is the long-awaited sequel to the second 3D Mario game, Super Mario Sunshine. It is also the first time that a Mario and Luigi villain is in a Mario platformer. It is the first time a Mario game is being developed by Gameblast Games Inc.

Gameplay

The game is similar to Super Mario Sunshine in the way you use FLUDD but now he has a new nozzle. Also, all nozzles are always active so You don't have to find nozzles in boxes.

Story

Mario, Peach and Toadsworth go on holiday to Isle Delfino again in hope that their holiday is not as crazy as their last. When they get there, the Piantas are happy to see Mario because there have been several cases of giant balls of toxic goop falling from the sky. The Piantas kept FLUDD in case they may need it again. Mario straps on FLUDD and goes after Bowser who is creating the goop using the new powers he got for capturing the Shine Kings (big Shine Sprites). The Shine Sprites once again fled and once Mario stops Bowser, he finds there is still goop coming from somewhere and so he goes in search of the source at Corona Mountain. Inside a cave there, he finds Iggy koopa guarding the dark star who was slowly regaining power the whole time. He had possessed Bowser into kidnapping the Shine Kings and turning all of the Shine Sprites into Dark Sprites. He can gain his power from these so he can regain his strength and take over the multiverse! He then turns Bowser's remains into dry Bowser so that he can continue using him.

Delfino Plaza

Delfino Plaza has not really changed in itself, but now you can access the insides of buildings. Mostly you do this to get secret shines but there are some cases where you HAVE to go inside the buildings. Also, you no longer hop into magic graffiti but instead you find various boats and cruisers around the island. These include Toadsworth's boat, sunshine cruiser, Daisy cruiser, a gondola, a small cargo boat, a large cargo boat, an illegal sewer boat, a secret dingy, Bowser's submarine and even the dark star itself! all of the boats but Toadsworth's one are covered in goop and you need a shine king to remove the goop. When you enter the boat you are presented with three tickets each with a model of the island they take you to above. some tickets when clicked cause the boat operator to tell you that the council won't let him operate to there until a certain number of shine sprites have been found.

Powerups

To make up for there not being extra nozzles to find in boxes, there are now a ton of powerups which can be found by shooting a question block with the new nozzle. Each powerup has less of an effect on mario and more on an effect on FLUDD.

powerup	description	appearance
Goomba 'shroom	Allows Mario to shoot Goombas which run continuously in the direction you shot them. If you boost into the air then you create a Goomba stack.
Bowser 'shroom	Makes Mario look like Bowser so he can boss enemies about!
Boomerang flower	Instead of allowing Mario to throw boomerangs, it instead allows water FLUDD shoots to come back to Mario. Not only does Mario never really run out of water, but it can also catch certain objects in its water and bring it to Mario.
Boo shroom	It basically does the same thing it did in Super Mario galaxy but now boo Mario can use FLUDD.
Cloud flower	Allows FLUDD to spray mist to confuse enemies. He can also shoot projectiles that, upon hitting an object, create a cloud for Mario to stand on. If you boost into the air then you create a cloud as you are about to fall
Double cherry	Basically does the same thing it did in super Mario 3D world but now the clones can all use FLUDD to shoot other clones across gaps
Fire flower	Almost every Mario game houses a fire flower. in this game the fire flower allows FLUDD to shoot fire rather that water.
Gold flower	Allows FLUDD to shoot melted gold that basically does the same thing as it did in new super Mario bros. 2
Ice flower	t The ice flower allows FLUDD to shoot ice that freezes water.	File:IMG 0675.png
Mega mushroom	Allows Mario to turn huge and destroy everything in his path. He can spray tons of water at once with more force allowing him to turn huge windmills and waterwheels.
Star	Allows Mario to turn into invincible Mario to mow through enemies and run super fast.
Metal 'shroom	turns Mario into Metal Mario allowing him to walk on the seabed as if the water wasn't there and stops enemies from hurting him. He is also super heavy.
Mini mushroom	Turns Mario into mini Mario allowing him to fit inside small spaces.
Penguin suit	When you collect this it activates a minigame in which you race someone (probably a penguin) in a water race similar to riding a blooper in the original game.
Mushroom	Replenishes 3 of Mario's HP
Water flower	Doubles FLUDD's water tanks.
1-up	Gives Mario an extra life
Paper flower	Turns Mario into paper Mario temporarily so he can fit through thin gaps and float to the ground. He burns easily and cannot touch water.
Bomb 'shroom	Allows FLUDD to shoot Bobombs as an explosive projectile.
Life shroom	Doubles the HP mario has

New nozzle

FLUDD's new nozzle allows him to shoot water balls to give FLUDD an actual projectile. The nozzle looks like a water gun but with a more FLUDD-esque design.

You may notice that The light star only has 2 levels. The one between the two takes you to Lower Corona Mountain which is not really a level as it contains no shine sprites. It is really just so you can go back there if you want. It costs 130 shine sprites.

You may also notice that every level in the dark star seems to be free. Only one is actually free because the rest cost dark sprites. Dark sprites replace shine sprites in these 3 levels.

level name	dark sprite cost
The witherlands	0
Vine city	3
Fortress of shadows	8

Multiplayer with Luigi

There is a multiplayer mode in this game. The second player can play as Luigi. Luigi has not got his own FLUDD so he can only do basic moves. He also cannot use powerups unless he grabs onto Mario's FLUDD and rides Mario. Then he is basically the same sprite as Mario. He acts a bit like a more interactive version of the co-op Luma from Super Mario Galaxy 2. There are secret green shine sprites dotted around various levels which you need 2 players to access.

Bosses

Image	Name	Location	Cutscene and how to fight
	Bowser	An island near Bowser's magma getaway.	After using the cannon to blast to the island, Bowser can be seen sitting in a deck chair with sunglasses and a tropical drink. He then gets up and powers himself up using the power of the shine king and becomes rainbow Bowser like at the end of Super Mario 64. He then floats into the air with his shell facing up. His attacks include trying to land on you, dropping balls of goop on you and breathing fire at you. Flip him over by rocket-jumping into his belly and then wait for him to try and land on you. When he does, ground-pound his belly to do 1 damage. He has 3 HP.
	Iggy Koopa	A cave in Lower Corona Mountain.	When you enter a certain part of the cave at lower Corona Mountain, Iggy drops down and initiates the battle. Iggy is similar to Boom Boom in how you kill him. He hops around shooting beams at you. Stomp him to make him bounce around in his shell. he has 5 HP.
	Petey piranah	A cave in Petey park.	When you reach a certain point in Petey park, Petey piranha flies over and lands in front of you. The ground starts shaking and the floor gives way sending Mario and Petey tumbling into a cave. The battle with this overgrown weed is similar to the original in super mario sunshine. His attacks include spitting small poison balls, creating mini piranha plants around the arena, creating Goobles and breathing in for about 1.5 seconds to shoot a beam of gloop around the arena. Just shoot water into his mouth so he is so heavy he cannot move, then ground-pound his belly. He has 5 HP.
	Mecha bowser	The fountain at Pinna park.	When you get to the water fountain at Pinna park, Bowser Jr flies down and sends Mecha bowser on you. For the first part he just chases you, firing bullet bills at you. He sometimes breaths fire and moves left and right so you have to dodge his fire beam. When you reach the manager of the park he gives you a mini mushroom so that you can go inside of him. When you enter him you have to beat a mini-level that is set inside of him with you normal sized. When you get to the core reactor you can destroy it, destroying his legs. When you exit you are normal-sized and he is hovering and still in pursuit. Repeat this to dismantle his arms and then one more time to get inside his head and destroy his main core reactor!
	Larry Koopa	The kitchens of the town hall.	You need council permission to use the gondola but the mayor won't see you until you bring him lunch. Larry won't give you the mayor's lunch until you beat him! He is almost identical to Iggy except that he throws frying pans like the chef bros. from Super Mario Oddesy.
	Gooper blooper	The sunken shipwreck in Pirate's seas.	When you go to the sunken shipwreck one time, you see the shine king just sitting there. All of a sudden, Gooper blooper grabs it away from you! His attacks include swiping you with his tentacles, shooting ink (which creates bubbles that rise), summoning bloopers and poking his tentacles at random places. Occasionally he will poke out a green tentacle. Water-dash into it to do damage. He has 8 HP
	Morton Koopa Jr	The lighthouse near delfino plaze	When you get to the lighthouse Morton drops down and announces: " ME MORTON HAS ORDERS! BAD MARIO WANT HAVE GET TO LITTLE CARRY BOAT! MORTON STOP WILL! YOU NO PASS!". His attacks include ground-pounding and smashing his hammer around like captain toad with a pickaxe.
	Paper Bowser and Kammy koopa	Inside a cave in Paper world.	When you enter a certain cave, Paper Bowser and Kammy koopa will enter behind you talking about "A safe place to plot new plans". When they see Mario they think he is Paper Mario. Kammy koopa makes Paper Bowser huge and makes stalactites appear on the cave roof. If you try to attack, Kammy koopa stops you with magic. You have to spray mist at her to blind her temporarily. At the time you have a cloud flower so you can create clouds to make a staircase up to his head to ground-pound his head. The stalactites prevent you from just rocket jumping to his head. He has 5 HP
	Bowser Jr	Inside the crater of Corona Mountain.	When you hop in the crater of the volcano you will find a penguin suit. When you start sliding down the lava river, the roof falls in and you bump onto the new platform that just fell to the floor. Then Bowser Jr floats down from the hole in the ceiling and turns his clown car into a jet ski. You chase him down the tunnel avoiding the things he throws. Ram into the Bobombs to throw them at him. He has 10 HP.
	Ludwig Von Koopa	In the sewers of Delfino Plaza.	Ludwig is basically the same as most other koopalings except the battle takes place on several small-ish platforms. Ludwig can also flutter-jump.
	Angry wiggler	A poison lake in Wiggler woods.	When you get to a certain soda lake, a wiggler stampede comes out of the woods lead by an angry wiggler. To defeat the angry wiggler, you must jump from wiggler to wiggler to get to the front of the stampede whilst avoiding cannonballs shot by moleblasters. when at the front, you can water the plants sticking out of the poison. They create a pyramid of levitated poison underneath the lead wiggler, flipping him over. Just ground pound him! He has 5 HP.
	Lemmy Koopa	At a secret location.	Lemmy is similar to other koopalings aside from him being taller due to his ball. The battle takes place on an arena that is surrounded by an abbys. He shoots bouncy balls and throws bombs.
	King boo	A secret room at the bottom of the chimney at illusion manor.	When you walk up to the boo painting on the wall with a crown, the boo in the painting disappears. Then he reappears but you can only see him in the mirror! He announces that he turned the shine king into his crown. His attacks include throwing household objects at you, summoning enemies and ramming into you. Wait for him to summon an enemy with a projectile and lure that enemy into throwing it at king boo. He has 5 HP.
	Dry Bowser	The lead airship in Bowser's airship armada.	When you reach the lead airship, Bowser Jr flies down and drops some bones behind the wheel. They merge to become Dry Bowser. His attacks include throwing bones, breathing blue fire and having Bowser jr throw bullet bills and bobombs. If you time it right you can deflect his bones back at him using FLUDD. Then it turns into a ping-pong rally. When he gets hit he turns into a pile of bones. Blow them up using Jr's bobombs.
	Roy Koopa	The top floor of The Fortress of Shadows.	Roy Koopa is very similar to other koopalings but he can ground-pound and shoot bullet bills.
	Dark bowser	The roof of the tower on fortress of shadows.	When you reach Dark Bowser he spits shadow clouds into the air encasing and suffocating all of the world's residents. Then he changes gravity so that you and him fall onto an arena in the sky. He then creates his own FLUDD. He can do everything Mario can do plus breathing dark fire. You need to lure him into turbo-boosting into the spiked mines around the arena. He has 3 HP. Then he turns the arena into bricks and creates generators that prevent the bricks from being broken. Lure him into spraying the generators so that they short-circuit. Now the battle is similar to Super Mario Bros. 3's Bowser battle.
	Dark king	Some unknown location in space.	When Bowser Jr sees that his dad has been defeated once again he announces that it is time to use the secret weapon Dark Bowser has been using the dark sprites for. The dark sprites merge to form a dark king (a dark shine king) which, had Dark Bowser won, would have destroyed all of the planets in the multiverse to make room for Bowser's own universe. The Dark king blasts the airship, Mario, itself and Bowser to a strange planet covered in dark clouds. Then the Dark king uses some strange inferius-like magic to posses Bowser's dead body and bring him back to life. Then they start flying away at hyperspeed and the airship chases them. His attacks include creating dark sprites and hurling them at you, launching Bowser at you and breathing dark flames at you. When he does the Bowser attack, spray water at Bowser's mouth to fill him up. When he is full enough, he will pop, drenching the Dark king (who is weak to water). He then creates another Dark Bowser
	Wendy Koopa	Inside one of the houses in Delfino Plaza.	Similar to the other koopalings except she shoots projectiles that bounce EVERYWHERE! She is completely optional and gives you a secret shine sprite upon beating her.
	Firey petey piranha	On a planet somewhere in The master run.	When Petey piranha is beaten at Petey park he flies away into space! In the master run he lands on an arena and sets himself on fire! The battle is similar to the original except that sometimes he is on fire so he evaporates any water that comes near. Wait for him to turn off fire mode. It is the same with the fire he breathes.
	Mecha dark bowser	On a rainbow road in The master run.	When Firey petey goes POOF, you fall to rainbow road below. There, the airship flies over and Bowser Jr activates Mecha dark bowser. He is almost identical to the original except for the Bullet Bills are replaced by Bull's-eye Bills and the courses inside Mecha dark bowser are harder.
