Donkey Kong Country is the only Donkey Kong I have actually finished. I made heavy use of save states, but made a rule that I won't them within the levels. So, basically used them as unlimited lives, and boy, did I need those!

Started Donkey Kong Country 2, but it's soo difficult. Want to get back to them sometime though.

Oh dude. Keep going with DK2. If only for the soundtrack.

Some of the levels are just so beautiful.

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, going to give it at least one more try. Let's see how it goes.

Yeah, DKC can be pretty tough! It's also the only one I've played. I've played 2 and maybe 3 a few times but just to try them out. I have the goal to dedicate more time to them some day! And I'm looking forward to the Switch HD remake, I hated the motion controller gimmick on the Wii too much to enjoy it 😅

How is the difficulty in Donkey Kong Country Returns and Tropical Freeze?

[–] picandocodigo@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't remember if I even finished the first level on DKC Returns. I think I rage quit very early, so I can't say 😅

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Heh, I guess I'll wait for the reviews of DKC Returns HD before getting it.

With Tropical Freeze there are ways to make it easier or harder (e.g. funky Kong in the switch version is invulnerable I believe). However 100% the game is a challenge as there are secret levels and collectible challenges (that you don't need to finish to beat the game).
