The '''Freezeflame Galaxy''' is one of the five [[Bedroom (Super Mario Galaxy)|Bedroom]] galaxies in the game ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]''. It requires the use of both the [[Fire Flower]] and the [[Ice Flower]] to complete. Half of this galaxy consists of freezing water and ice, while the other half consists of fire and [[lava]]. However, the cold portion of this galaxy is featured most prominently; four missions in this galaxy solely take place on icy planetoids. [[Baron Brrr]] resides on the icy half of the galaxy and acts as the galaxy's boss. The galaxy appears to be mainly divided into three large planets: one is an icy planet, the second is a lava planet, and the third is a combination of both fire and ice with a rock-like core. There are also two minor planetoids of note; the first of which resembles a large ring of ice, and is the first planet that Mario lands on when he enters the galaxy. The second planet is one that features alternating paths of both lava and ice, and is first encountered in the [[Hot and Cold Collide]] mission. This area is also where [[Cosmic Mario]] is raced later, only without the lava parts present. Auroras can sometimes be seen around a few of the planets in this galaxy. The galaxy's name is presumably a combination and oxymoron of the words "freeze" and "flame", or a pun off of the term "Freezeframe".

The '''Freezeflame Galaxy''' is a galaxy in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy]]'', accessed via the [[Bedroom (Super Mario Galaxy)|Bedroom]]. Its theme is the contrast between hot and cold environments, with roughly half of the areas visited being freezing landscapes covered in ice and snow, while the other half consists of ruins above pools of lava, inhabited by fire enemies. The cold portion of this galaxy is featured most prominently; four out of its six missions solely take place on icy planetoids. [[Baron Brrr]], the galaxy's boss, also resides on the icy half. The name of this area is a play on the term "freezeframe".
 
While this galaxy does not return in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'', the [[Shiverburn Galaxy]] is similar in both its name and concept. The two galaxies also share the same background music.

The starting planet of the Freezeflame Galaxy consists of nothing more than a thin ring of ice with several ice crystals and stone stumps on the surface. Two rolling boulders are also found rolling along the inner side of the ring. The first time Mario lands here, he must ice skate around it to catch a small [[Penguin]] and make the [[Launch Star]] appear. In [[Hot and Cold Collide]], this planet becomes infused with balls of fire and lava, making it difficult to get around without getting burned.

Freezy Peak<ref>Black, Fletcher. ''Super Mario Galaxy'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Pages 179, 180, 181, 189, 191, 192.</ref> is essentially the main planet in the galaxy, as it is the most often visited by Mario. It is a large planet in the shape of a very high and rocky mountain with three levels of lakes of [[freezing water]]. Mario first lands on a large ice slide at the base of the mountain; a second, smaller slide is hidden above the first lake. The slide ends before a small icy area inhabited by [[Goomba]]s. The player can climb the three lake sections with the help of the [[Ice Flower]] and [[Bomp]]s. [[Baron Brrr]] resides at the top lake. Higher up the mountain there are icy cliffs that Mario must scale. Here, he will also find [[Fire Flower]]s and snowmen to use them on.

Freezy Peak<ref>Black, Fletcher. ''Super Mario Galaxy'' PRIMA Official Game Guide. Pages 179, 180, 181, 189, 191, 192.</ref> is essentially the main planet in the galaxy, as it is the most often visited by Mario. It is a large planet that consists of a very high and rocky mountain with three levels of freezing lakes of [[freezing water]]. There is a large ice slide at the beginning of the planet and a second, smaller one hidden above the first lake. After taking the Launch Star to this planet, Mario will land on the first ice slide and end up on a small icy area inhabited by [[Goomba]]s. Just after the three lakes are several icy cliffs that Mario must scale in order to reach the summit of the planet. [[Baron Brrr]] resides on the third level of the mountain.

This planet is the largest encountered in the galaxy. It is a large round sphere of cooled magma, through the center of which runs a large fissure filled with lava. Here, Mario has to traverse the temple-like structures and pathways rising from the lava, as well as sinking and rolling pillars. The platforms and structures seen within the fissure seem to be all that remains of what appears to be a ruined civilization that has now been inhabited by multiple [[Ground Urchin]]s and [[Li'l Cinder]]s. [[Crate]]s are also found aplenty in this area.

When Mario flies to this planet, he lands on a small stone platform located within the fissure. There are also multiple other platforms and temple-like structures located inside the fissure, which prevent Mario from falling in the lava. In [[Freezeflame's Blistering Core]], he must follow these platforms to the center of the planet where he will find the [[Power Star]] for that level.

[[File:HotcoldSMG.png|thumb|200px|The two sides from the Hot and Cold Planet.]]
This planet is essentially a large sphere with two circular openings on either side that connect across the middle of it by means of a small passageway. One of the openings is filled with [[freezing water]] and many [[Urchin]]s. There are also a few snow covered platforms sticking up out of the water on this side of the planet. The second of the two openings is filled with burning lava. There is a stone section with a double-sided cage that holds a [[Fire Flower]] within it in the middle of the lava. In the Hot and Cold Collide mission, Mario must [[Spin]] a valve on one side of the cage in order to unlock it and access the Fire Flower, which is needed to complete the level. The tides on each side of the planet alternate with each other depending on how high one of the tides is in relation to the other. The background music also changes depending on which side of the planet Mario is on - the theme from the Freezy Peak Planet is used for the ice side, but the theme from the Lava Core Planet is used for the lava side. If the player looks up by the planet, they can see the Power Star halo effect. This is the location of the Power Star from the [[Hot and Cold Collide]] level. This halo is present on all levels, regardless of the scenario that was chosen.

These planets are composed of many small non-gravitational alternating platforms made of pure ice or lava. There are also several rock platforms with snow on them, which serve as resting platforms for Mario when he ice skates across it. In Hot and Cold Collide, this is the final planet that is encountered in the level. Mario must use the [[Ice Flower]] to ice skate across the lava portions (as well as the ice portions) to reach the Power Star hovering over the last platform. In the mission [[Frosty Cosmic Mario Race|Frosty Cosmic Mario/Luigi Race]], the lava platforms are replaced with additional ice platforms, meaning that the use of the [[Ice Flower]] is no longer needed to reach the Power Star on the final platform. This planet is also surrounded by multiple [[black hole]]s, most of them being of substantial size, which will suck Mario and Luigi in if they are not careful.
These are square platforms made of pure ice or lava, forming a pathway with alternating gravity directions. An Ice Flower is provided so Mario can skate across the lava platforms. This is the final planet of Hot and Cold Collide, with the Power Star resting at the end of the path.

The Freezeflame Galaxy is a galaxy in Super Mario Galaxy, accessed via the Bedroom. Its theme is the contrast between hot and cold environments, with roughly half of the areas visited being freezing landscapes covered in ice and snow, while the other half consists of ruins above pools of lava, inhabited by fire enemies. The cold portion of this galaxy is featured most prominently; four out of its six missions solely take place on icy planetoids. Baron Brrr, the galaxy's boss, also resides on the icy half. The name of this area is a play on the term "freezeframe".

While this galaxy does not return in Super Mario Galaxy 2, the Shiverburn Galaxy is similar in both its name and concept. The two galaxies also share the same background music.

Planets/Areas

NOTE: Unless otherwise noted, all names are unofficial.

Starting Planet

Mario on the Starting Planet.
Freezeflame Galaxy
The ice planet infused with balls of lava.

The starting planet of the Freezeflame Galaxy is a toroidal mass of ice with several crystals and stone stumps on the surface. This planet has its own gravitational pull, allowing Mario to explore its underside. Two boulders roll along the inner side of the ring. The first time Mario lands here, he must ice skate around it to catch a small Penguin and make the Launch Star appear. In Freezeflame's Blistering Core, Mario must collect five Star Chips to make five Pull Stars and the Launch Star appear. In Hot and Cold Collide, this planet becomes infused with balls of fire and lava.

Freezy Peak

The Freezy Peak in the Freezeflame Galaxy
Mario flying to the Freezy Peak planet.

Freezy Peak[1] is essentially the main planet in the galaxy, as it is the most often visited by Mario. It is a large planet in the shape of a very high and rocky mountain with three levels of lakes of freezing water. Mario first lands on a large ice slide at the base of the mountain; a second, smaller slide is hidden above the first lake. The slide ends before a small icy area inhabited by Goombas. The player can climb the three lake sections with the help of the Ice Flower and Bomps. Baron Brrr resides at the top lake. Higher up the mountain there are icy cliffs that Mario must scale. Here, he will also find Fire Flowers and snowmen to use them on.

One of the many icy cliffs on Freezy Peak (towards the back).

Lava Core Planet

Lava Core Planet in Freezeflame Galaxy
The outside of the Lava Core Planet.

This planet is the largest encountered in the galaxy. It is a large round sphere of cooled magma, through the center of which runs a large fissure filled with lava. Here, Mario has to traverse the temple-like structures and pathways rising from the lava, as well as sinking and rolling pillars. The platforms and structures seen within the fissure seem to be all that remains of what appears to be a ruined civilization that has now been inhabited by multiple Ground Urchins and Li'l Cinders. Crates are also found aplenty in this area.

This planet is only visited during the mission Freezeflame's Blistering Core.

Hot and Cold Planet

Mario flying toward the Hot and Cold Planet.
The two sides from the Hot and Cold Planet.

This planet is a large sphere with two circular openings on either side that connect across the middle of it by means of a small passageway. One of the sides is filled with freezing water and many Urchins. There are also a few snow covered platforms sticking up out of the water. The other side is filled with lava, where Mario will find a double-sided cage that holds a Fire Flower. In the Hot and Cold Collide mission, Mario must spin a valve on one side of the cage in order to unlock it and access the Fire Flower, which is needed to complete the level. The tides on each side of the planet alternate in level.

The background music changes depending on which side of the planet Mario is on – "Ice Mountain" is used for the icy side (like in Freezy Peak), and "Lava Path" is used for the lava side (like in the Lava Core Planet). If the player looks up by the planet, they can see the Power Star halo effect. This is the location of the Power Star from the Hot and Cold Collide level. This halo is present on all levels, regardless of the scenario that was chosen.

Ice and Lava Platforms

Ice Mario skating across the Ice and Lava Platforms.

These are square platforms made of pure ice or lava, forming a pathway with alternating gravity directions. An Ice Flower is provided so Mario can skate across the lava platforms. This is the final planet of Hot and Cold Collide, with the Power Star resting at the end of the path. In the mission Frosty Cosmic Mario/Luigi Race, the lava platforms are replaced with additional ice platforms.

This planet is also surrounded by multiple black holes, most of them being of substantial size, which will suck Mario and Luigi in if they fall off at any point.

Sun Planets

The Lava Planets
The three Sun Planets.

As Mario approaches the Starting Planet in this galaxy, he flies past these three inaccessible spherical planets of pure lava, which look like three small suns, or the balls of lava lodged into the Starting Planet in Hot and Cold Collide.

Trivia

Luigi on the surface of the Hot and Cold Planet
  • A trick makes it possible to explore the surface of the Hot and Cold Planet. The player must do a triple jump right on the connecting ramp and then wall jump off the lip of the wall to access it.
  • On the Ice and Lava Platforms, if the first crystal of Star Bits is broken, the Star Bits will float in midair instead of falling to the ground like they usually would.
