The only difference between the day and night versions of this minigame is the decorations on the side of the arena; during the day, the decorations resemble suns, and at night, they are partially lit up to appear as moons.

==Introduction==
Players use the [[cannon]]s attached to the left and right of their hovercrafts alternately to launch [[cannonball]]s at their opponents. Every player tries to get five points, with one point earned for each opponent hit, also stopping them briefly. There are no gameplay differences during different times of the day, though the side decorations are lit up at night to look like moons, not suns like during the day. The player who fulfills the objective first wins. If none of the players score at all before time runs out, the result is a tie.

==Gameplay==
Players pilot hovercrafts around an arena, firing [[cannonball]]s at each other. Each hovercraft has a [[cannon]] on the left and right sides, and the cannons fire alternately. When a player hits an opponent, that player earns a point. When a player is hit, that player is stunned for a moment. The first player to obtain five points wins.
