Gameplay

File:Bunny Hop Arcade.png

File:Rabbit Jump 3DS.PNG

Your goal is to help a bunny reach the moon by jumping on sea animals. Pressing a button or tapping the screen will make it jump from sea animal to sea animal, like turtles and whales. Each sea animal has its own timing: when you hop on a small whale, you will fly and rest for two beats, jumping on a whale's tale counts 4 beats, and the big whale counts 8 beats. There is also a whale at the end who will help you get to the moon.

Controls

Button Mode

• A: Jump

Simple Tap Mode

• Tap: Jump

Timing Notes

• Hit: The rabbit jumps onto the next sea animal.
• Barely: A "DOINK" sound can be heard when the rabbit jumps too early or late onto the sea animal, making him stumbled over it. A barely counts as a miss.
• Miss: The rabbit will stumble over and tumble onto the next sea animal.

Mortar & Pestle	Shadows on the Moon
File:Sprite 3DS Rhythm Item Mortar & Pestle.png.png	Japanese folklore says there's a rabbit on the moon, using a mortar and pestle to make mochi. But everyone sees the markings on the moon differently. I see a crab with huge claws!

Skill Star

When you jump off of the second whale that sends you into the air for eight seconds, land on the turtle perfectly to collect the star.

— Bunny Hop 2P Description

Template:Game-Nav Template:Minigame infobox Bunny Hop also appears in the 2P mode of Rhythm Tengoku (Arcade) where it is referred to as Bunny Hop 2P (ウサギとび 2P^?, Usagi Tobi 2P). It plays the same as the 1P version, except it has a split screen display to accommodate the second player.

Trivia

• This is one of the few games that doesn't feature a practice in the series.
  • However, it did get a tutorial in the arcade version, and a practice in Rhythm Heaven Megamix.
• The image of the rabbit on the moon upon completion of the game is a reference to the Moon Rabbit, also known as the Jade Rabbit, an old Chinese myth which says that the dark patches on the moon's surface looks like a rabbit creating the elixir of life for the mortals on Earth. The difference between the myth and the rabbit in Rhythm Heaven is that instead of creating elixir, the rabbit seems to be making something (likely Mochi) with a mortar and pestle.
• This game's music bears a striking resemblance to "Rock the Mike" from WarioWare: Touched.
• In English, this game shares its name with a BMX bike trick.
• Rat Race, Fan Club 2, and this game are the only games to receive remixed music in Rhythm Heaven Megamix.
