Skywire VIP is a spin-off to the Skywire series, released February 9, 2010. Players are challenged to guess the names of historical and modern famous characters appearing as bean people.
Controls
Letter Keys - Type the name of the character
Gameplay
A Cable car will drop off a Bean Person on the stage, and the player has to write where the character is from, or the characters name. If the player gets stuck, they can click a spotlight with a "?" on a yellow background to get a hint, but when they complete the question, they only get 50 points, instead of the usual 100.
Menu Intro dialogue

Mat: And with that there's only one thing left to say...
Heather: Good night and have a safe journey home!
Mat: Hey that was my line!
Heather: I thought maybe it should be my turn to finish.
Mat: But... It was my line... I'm the star!
Heather: I hate you... you never let me speak!
Mat: Yeah well maybe you shouldn't!
Heather: I'm the popular one!
Mat: Is that the best you can do?
Heather: I can do better... just keep going.
Mat: Are we really going to sit here and argue?
Heather: Well we haven't got any legs so what else are we going to do?
Mat: We could at least not do it in front of the gamers.
Heather: When else are we going to do it...
Mat: ...When the game is closed...
Heather: ...Do we even exist?
Mat: Maybe we should keep on talking so they don't close us down.
Heather: ...But I have run out of things to say.
Mat: Oh great now you finally shut up... Typical!
Heather: ...
Mat: ...
Heather: Please don't close us!
Mat: There's more game honest!

Mat: I'm sure it will load up secret levels or something!
Heather: Or maybe if you wait long enough...
Mat: We can get an artist to make more pixel people.
Heather: As long as it's not Mat.
Mat: Why not Mat?
Heather: Look what he did with my hair!
Mat: Whats wrong with it?
Heather: Whats right with it?
Mat: There's not a pixel out of place!
Heather: How can you tell? There are so few pixels!
Mat: Yeah I don't get it - why didn't he draw us bigger?
Heather: He sure is Lazy.
Mat: I would watch what you say...
Heather: Why?
Mat: Well if he did the art maybe he wrote this text too?
Heather: Flibliwibbledooblewam!
Mat: Thats definitely Mat... he's getting you back!

Mat: I don't wash my hands after the toilet!
Heather: Oh! To late!
Mat: Maybe there's a way we can get back in his good books?!
Heather: Yeah maybe he will even let us be in Skywire 3!
Mat: Sweet! That would be cool!
Heather: Oh Mat your the best artist in the world..
Mat: Yeah you should make games for consoles or something.
Heather: Ok don't ham it up to much!
Mat: Hang are we saying this or him?

Trivia
At the end of the game, Mat and Heather mention Skywire 3. However, in the blog post for the game Heather mentions that they have not got around to making a Skywire 3. This is similar to the end of Mutiny where one of the Cabin Boys mention a Sequel to Mutiny, which there is not, or at least hasn't been yet (maybe Heather refers Skywire 3 as Skywire VIP Shuffle).
Although the game is listed as a Main Game, the gameplay is very mini-game like.
Skywire VIP and Skywire VIP Extended are the only Main Games that don't save the player's progress.
Will Smith makes his first appearance in the Skywire series in the "Will Smith" level.
