==Gameplay==
The game is from a rear view perspective. The goal is to swim through as many bubble rings as possible. They appear as the four players swim through the course. Each bubble ring is worth one point. Sometimes, a Manta Ray will swim by and drop three gold rings worth three points each. Hitting a [[Blooper]] will deduct one point, hitting [[Sushi]] will deduct two points, and hitting the giant [[Eel]] at the end will deduct three points.
