Learn how to get the Hidden Star in Space Junk Galaxy's Tarantox's Tangled Web level in Super Mario 3D All-Stars. Feed the Hungry Luma and clear out Goombas!

Hey there! Ready to grab another star in Super Mario Galaxy? This one's a bit of a surprise, hidden away in the Tarantox’s Tangled Web level within Space Junk Galaxy. Don't worry, I'll walk you through it step-by-step!

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First things first, you'll need to make your way through the level using the Pull Stars. These are your ticket to the next gravitational point, which happens to be a prism planet. Just keep pulling yourself from one Pull Star to the next until you reach the glass maze planet.
  2. 2
    Once you land on the planet that looks like a terrarium, you'll notice some Star Bits are trapped in crystals. Give them a good spin to break them open! Keep an eye out for a Hungry Luma chilling on the surface. This little guy is hungry – really hungry! He'll ask you to feed him 50 Star Bits. If you've been collecting them, you should be pretty close. If not, don't sweat it! Head into the maze planet; there are tons of Star Bits to find there. You can get them by spinning flower patches, running through green bushes, or defeating Goombas (they drop Star Bits when spun!).
  3. 3
    After you've successfully fed the Hungry Luma its 50 Star Bits, get ready for a transformation! It'll turn into a whole new planet, and a Star Launcher will pop up. Hop into the Star Launcher; it'll whisk you away to your new destination.
  4. 4
    When you arrive, you'll find the new planet is absolutely swarming with Goombas. Your mission here is to clear out every single one of them. It’s not too tough, just try your best not to get caught in a Goomba stampede! A good strategy is to spin attack a bunch of them at once, then quickly run through them to take them out in quick succession.
  5. 5
    Once the last Goomba is defeated, a shiny new Power Star will appear. Congratulations, you've found the hidden star!
Tips
  • Remember to spin to break those crystal-encased Star Bits!
  • Don't be afraid to explore the maze planet if you need more Star Bits for the Hungry Luma.
  • When facing the Goombas, using a spin attack followed by a dash can clear them out efficiently.
