Challenge Mode (Pikmin): Difference between revisions

The '''Challenge Mode''' in [[Pikmin (game)|''Pikmin'']] challenges the player to grow as many [[Pikmin family|Pikmin]] as they can in a single day. It is unlocked when all three types of Pikmin are discovered in the game's main story mode. This is independent of log file, and once unlocked, the Challenge Mode will be available forever on the [[Menu#Title screen|title screen]], under Options. Levels are unlocked as they are encountered in the main game, again, for any ship log. The areas are slightly different from the ones in story mode, having different enemies and obstacles in different places, and lacking in ship parts. In addition, the [[S.S. Dolphin]] is not present during play, meaning [[Captain Olimar|Olimar]] cannot repair his spacesuit, so the player must take great care as to not let Olimar fall. In Challenge Mode, the areas are slightly darker than their in-game counterparts, and the tempo of each area's [[Music in Pikmin#Areas|music]] is increased slightly <ref>Each song receives a 20% tempo increase in Challenge Mode, as concluded by [[Talk:Challenge Mode (Pikmin)#Tempo change|this brief study]].</ref>.
