There's a free 6 heart right before the power line leading to the carrot, just spin Cappy on one of the veggies on the right side

How does the hint art work?

Specifically the one showing Lost Kingdom and teasing Poochie. I went to the exact spot and he's not there :(

ground pound the glowing area in the hint art

You need to think creatively. There's a very simple way to get up there with no jump tricks or anything.

Just use a lava bubble. Shoot over it with one of the cannons and untransform in midair so you fall right down on top.

Or you can just jump from the big pot on the volcano

Speedruns that include the post game are going to be cool just because of the potential painting routes, I forsee people getting like 200 moons before going back to the Odyssey to drop them off

People saying that this game doesn't have a sufficient post game are insane in the brain

It has a significant post game, but that post game is mostly a retread of existing content, with one new unique area, two areas copying the style of a previous one and that boil down to one boss rush and one long platforming challenge, and more moons to get in the same areas. It’s not a lot of new content, just mostly more of the same. You’ve seen all the cool stuff the game has to offer once you explore Peach’s Castle.

Aside from the new exploration moons, every kingdom gets at least 2-3 all new challenge areas. Beyond that, the Dark Side is expanded once you beat the boss rush to include 10 new art moons and 6 challenge areas that put a harder spin on previous ones. The Mushroom Kingdom has 104 unique moons by itself (although a big portion of those are achievement based) It might not be as crazy as the green stars in Galaxy 2 or 3D world's postgame, but there is tons of new content there.

So the portrait moons count towards the kingdom you collect it in, and not where you found the painting, right? I'm missing a moon in Cascade and I'm thinking it has to be a painting.

Also, I finally got 100 jump ropes, what a pain in the rear end. Even with the 'hey!' audio cue I still kept loving up between 40-50. Once I got to 50 it actually got a lot easier, I ended up finishing with 233.

Art moons count for the Kingdom the art is in.

Will the sail turn gold if you simply hit that number or do you have to specifically get the moons the hard way? I wish I hadn't bought the 10 from the store to see what that was about cause I feel like I cheated my moon count by ten :( I wanted to get the non-maxing out amount legitimately

No.

Old Bowser amiibo also work if you have those lying around.

And yeah, that's a lovely solution, but wedding bowser amiibo rules so I have no complaints :kimchi:

Watched an any% run of this, 1:24 with room for improvement, game is great, movement is great, and I do hope "world peace%" takes off (aka "all main quests", really, rather than just leaving when you have enough moons) to see more even if the boss fights aren't great

The record is 1:13 right now, lol. I just got a 1:37 and I'm not even in the top 100 with that, this is a really popular game. Though no one has done "All Missions" yet which I assume is the world peace% you're hoping for

It's a bit annoying to me that the only way to find purple coins missing from your collection is to buy a $13 toy.

You could watch a YouTube video or just you know look for them

I must have died like 30 times to that poo poo, 20 of them were probably to the giant piranhas at the end and their weird hosed up hitboxes.
There's an easier version of that stage on one of the other worlds where you can use your hat, but I found the hard version first.

I haven't beaten the dark side stage with the timed disappearing floors yet though, in the original of that one you get a scooter and I still had trouble getting through some of it in time.

the real trick is to shake your joycon while you roll

Got around to getting the final 3 moons on the darkest side. I know you need 999 moons or something for a true ending? I hope grinding the coins is worth it

not worth it, buy the skeleton costume instead
