'''Neo Star''' is the naturalistic fourth world encountered by [[Kirby]] and his sidekick, [[Ribbon]], on their mission to vanquish [[Dark Matter (cloud)|Dark Matter]] from their realm in ''[[Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards]]''. Like the [[Rock Star]] realm, Neo Star continues the pattern of stage variety, paying an emphasized homage to realistic landscapes seen on Earth, through the incorporation of volcanic climates, forest areas, subterranean caves, and mountainous passages endemic to the topography of real-world locations. | '''Neo Star''' is the naturalistic fourth world encountered by [[Kirby]] and his sidekick, [[Ribbon]], on their mission to vanquish [[Dark Matter (cloud)|Dark Matter]] from their realm in ''[[Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards]]''.

Neo Star is the third of the four "intermediate" worlds of ''Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards'', meaning that it contains four standard stages and a fifth boss stage, with only one cutscene playing at the end of the level. Neo Star is the most wild of the planets Kirby visits in the game, with next to no structural development anywhere to be seen. Instead, Kirby must make his way through largely wild spaces, and may find the topography quite difficult to move through. Among the challenging environments Kirby must traverse, there are thick green jungles with trees towering over [[bottomless pit]]s, massive underground chasms with mine cart tracks and shifting walls, high rocky mountain ranges with crumbling platforms, and an active volcanic region with rivers and lakes of lava. Unlike many other worlds, the inhabitants of Neo Star are relatively sparse, perhaps as a result of the tricky terrain. | Neo Star is the third of the four "intermediate" worlds of ''Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards'', meaning that it contains four standard stages and a fifth boss stage, with only one cutscene playing at the end of the level.

Nevertheless, all shards within one level need not to be collected before Kirby is granted access to the next; Kirby must simply complete the level. | ||
