Lunar-tics

Lunar-tics is a Duel minigame in Mario Party 6. Its name is a pun on the word "lunatics."

Introduction
The players jump from a rocket, activating their jetpacks.

Gameplay
The object of the game is to land on the landing pad (apparently on the moon, as indicated by the minigame's title) as closely as possible to the moment the timer reaches 0.00. Each player has a jetpack. If they press and hold, they fall slower. The player with the time closest to 0.00 wins, regardless of whether the timer went past zero.

If a player holds down the button until 3.51 seconds are left on the timer and then lets go, they will land with exactly 0.00 remaining.

Ending
The winner performs their winning pose on the platform, while the loser can be seen flying off into space. If the minigame ends in a draw, the players perform their losing poses.

Controls
