Shootouts was a party minigame during the Penguin Cup. The game was played by two players, and one could invite someone else to the game by dancing with the Penguin Cup Ball, which was received through the game interface. A soccer ball icon then appeared above the inviting player, and a game started as soon as someone else clicked it.

Gameplay

The objective of the game was to score as many points as possible. The game was played in two sections of the screen: the player on the left, and the opponent on the right. Each player was given an individual goal, and had 40 seconds to earn as many points as he or she could.

Earning points was done in the following way: a path appeared on the screen with a target at some point of it. A white circle appeared on one of the path's tips and started moving along the path. Once it covered some of the target, by pressing the space bar or click using your mouse, the player kicked the ball into the net; then another path would appear, for scoring more points. If the key was pressed while the circle did not cover the target, the player would miss. If the circle reached the end of the path, it reversed its direction.

Each goal would give the player another point. While there were no winners in the game, the points earned went to the player's team global points, and were also featured on their Player Card, allowing them to earn items as they progressed and more points.

Also, the maximum amount of possible points increased as players upgraded their power shoes. Without shoes, the maximum score was 9.
