First the player starts on a platform and has to jump on the cars to get to the other platform. There they have to ride the ride rail and hit the Ink Switch to move the Ink Piston up and avoid getting hit by them.
Next the player has to get on the car and get to the launchpad in the middle by jumping on to other cars. Sanitized Octotroopers, Sanitized Twintacle Octotroopers, Sanitized Octosnipers, and Sanitized Octocommanders can be found on the cars.
The final checkpoints makes the player get on a car and avoid ink pistons. The player can hit the propeller to move the car up and hit the ink switches to move the ink pistons down. Sanitized Octocopters spawn on the final row of ink pistons. Once the player is through, they can get to the goal.
