The competitors must cross an obstacle course placed in the sky, trying not to lose their three lives. If the player falls off the course, than they will be brought back up to a random point inside a bubble, but only as long as they have heart points left. Every platform caught at the back of the screen will fall off, along with any player caught on it at the time. The first area contain spinning disk-like platforms. Soon after, the players must cross rotating block formations. Then, they must cross many bouncy clouds and rotating platforms, until they reach the goal, a small, grassy platform with the numbers one through four inscribed upon it. The first player to reach the goal wins.
The players must travel through an auto-scrolling obstacle course in the sky without falling off the course. A player who falls loses one of three hearts, is placed inside a [[bubble]], and is brought back onto the course at a random point. A player is eliminated if they fall with no hearts remaining. As the players proceed along the course, the platforms toward the back fall offscreen.


In [[Perspective Mode]], the camera's angle changes to view the player from behind, and the screen does not automatically scroll. Additionally, instead of having three hearts, the player has no extra tries when he or she falls off; the minigame automatically ends when he or she falls. Also, the player has to beat the opponents, too.
The first area contains many rotating circular platforms, with the second area containing a set of plus- and T-shaped blocks, some of which rotate as well. The third and final section has bouncy clouds and rotating platforms that lead to the goal platform. The first player to reach it wins.

The introduction to Skyjinks

The players are seen jumping on platforms. Landing on wooden boards, the characters stop, and the minigame begins.

Gameplay[edit]

The players must travel through an auto-scrolling obstacle course in the sky without falling off the course. A player who falls loses one of three hearts, is placed inside a bubble, and is brought back onto the course at a random point. A player is eliminated if they fall with no hearts remaining. As the players proceed along the course, the platforms toward the back fall offscreen.

The first area contains many rotating circular platforms, with the second area containing a set of plus- and T-shaped blocks, some of which rotate as well. The third and final section has bouncy clouds and rotating platforms that lead to the goal platform. The first player to reach it wins.

In Perspective Mode, the camera is in "tracking" mode behind the player, and the screen does not automatically scroll. Additionally, players are immediately eliminated if they fall off the course.
