The difference between day and night is in how the balloon pops. Bubbles come out of the balloon in the daytime, and stars come out of the balloon at nighttime.
The only differences between day and night are aesthetic.

Players attempt to inflate their balloons to the point where they pop. The group players work together to pop their balloon by [[Ground Pound|ground-pound]]ing their pumps, while the solo player tries to pop their own balloon by repeatedly hammering their pump. The group players can pump more air in their balloon if they ground-pound from the highest point of their [[jump]]. The side that pops its balloon first wins. If both sides pop their balloons simultaneously or if five minutes pass, the minigame ends in a tie.
