MAN I AM SO JEALOUS
Game is staring at me on my desk but my finals are soon and I really shouldn't
I am so excited to finally try this :(
Which world is that? Sawmill Thrill?2-5 has some of the tightest platforming I've experienced in my life. INCREDIBLE.
The only thing that will make you repeat a level is the alternate exits that lead to the secret levels.A dumb question, it is possible to get all the collectibles in each level by doing a single run, or do you need to repeat some levels by taking different routes?

All the other collectibles can be obtained in a single run.
Thanks for the useful info :)
I always try to get 100% of the collectibles before moving to the next level in my platform games.
Time to repeat the first level!
You can buy the parrot to help you with the puzzle pieces though.Frankly the 100% is hard, some of the collectibles are hidden very well and I am even struggling to find those of World 1 (I am in World 3 right now).
I would recommend to try one or two times and then move on to the next level. It might become frustrating if you are stuck too long on one level.

You know, people said this game doesn't shine in coop but yesterday with a friend we had a blast. It's actual co-op and requires some communication. It doesn't feel like an afterthought.
I dunno, in Amazon.es is 52,90 ,same on the MediaMarkt web, and yeah, some webs have the game at 49,95 but the shipping costs 3 euros everywhere...
TBH, I rarely go to physical stores , I buy everything at Amazon, so maybe there's places where you can buy the game 3 € cheaper as you said.
I think the most underrated thing about this game is the fact that it contains, pound-for-pound, the greatest collection of platforming stages of all time
I feel like that should be celebrated more
As I don't have time (and car), I prefer Amazon, and tbh Amazon is as cheap as MM usually.I have to say I buy every nintendo game on carrefour or mediamarkt. Nothing beats finding always nintendo games there 10 euros (and sometimes even 15) cheaper than in every other store.
IIRC there's only (unfortunately) some tracks available to listen in each world.So I beat World 2, but did not unlock the Alpine Incline track. How do I unlock all the tracks? It only shows four for both worlds.
Windmill Kingdom, the level with the floating balloon platforms.

So I understand there are gates to the secret levels, what does completing the letters and puzzle pieces do?
Question: have they adjusted the difficulty in this game from the Wii U version (besides Funky)? I gave up at the owl boss years ago; it just dragged on and was too difficult/tedious. Would love to experience the game again more fully.
Funky Mode is an easier difficulty all around, the characters have more hearts and can take more items into levels. Funky Kong makes the game even easier on top of that, since he has all the companion's perks rolled into him baseline and has additional hearts on top of that.Question: have they adjusted the difficulty in this game from the Wii U version (besides Funky)?

Awesome, than you!Funky Mode is an easier difficulty all around, the characters have more hearts and can take more items into levels. Funky Kong makes the game even easier on top of that, since he has all the companion's perks rolled into him baseline and has additional hearts on top of that.
Other than that the game is pretty much unchanged.
Yeah every one have their preferences (or how you use your time) to buy stuff. Dont worry. I tried Amazon for games some time back, and becuase sometimes they fucked up the sending dates i prefer to get them myself, but of course is easy for me as I can get a bus or walk and be in the store in 10 minutes.As I don't have time (and car), I prefer Amazon, and tbh Amazon is as cheap as MM usually.
Extras (art assets).So I understand there are gates to the secret levels, what does completing the letters and puzzle pieces do?
No. Playing the Funky Mode you can switch and control DK, and then it's an easier version without being as easy as playing as Funky.Question: have they adjusted the difficulty in this game from the Wii U version (besides Funky)?

I kove that stage, it also has two of my favourite tracks (love how it has different musin when you get to the sky) and I also really enjoyed searching for the puzzles in that stage. World 2 would be my favourite world probably if it wasnt for that stage with Rambi that everything was collapsing - had some of the most furstrating moments in the whole game there.2-5 has some of the tightest platforming I've experienced in my life. INCREDIBLE.
Yeah, good idea to give us an extra hit - contrary to DKCReturns.The rocket barrel levels are really the best. Its a shame they cut back on them so much.
Completing puzzles gives you artworks in the extras.So I understand there are gates to the secret levels, what does completing the letters and puzzle pieces do?
I would pay A LOT of money to have a DLC for DKTF.The rocket barrel levels are really the best. Its a shame they cut back on them so much.
Those are definitely my favorites too. Every time I see the barrel or cart and remember what kind of level it is I get so stoked.I would pay A LOT of money to have a DLC for DKTF.
There's a lot of creativity into each level, but the small number of levels is the main cause behind having only a few "special levels".
IIRC there's (aside from the secret world):
-3 cart levels
-4 rocket levels
-3 silhouette levels
-3 Rambi levels
In DKCR there's a lot of cart levels, even 2 kind of them (the carts that jump with you and the carts from you can jump), and a fair amount of rocket levels.Those are definitely my favorites too. Every time I see the barrel or cart and remember what kind of level it is I get so stoked.
Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. I think I would buy a game that's straight Rocket Barrels though if they all look that good. Although Bopopolis is as good as it gets.In DKCR there's a lot of cart levels, even 2 kind of them (the carts that jump with you and the carts from you can jump), and a fair amount of rocket levels.
But in DKTF there's Rambi levels and water leves, so there's more overall variety
And DKTF introduces 2 more companions and the level gimmicks are better and more interesting.
I understand that the priority in DFTF was to create the best levels possible instead of the biggest amount.
DK: Flappy Bird edition...Yeah, that makes a lot of sense. I think I would buy a game that's straight Rocket Barrels though if they all look that good. Although Bopopolis is as good as it gets.

I really wish there was an easier way to overstate this fact when trying to sell people on how good this game isI think the most underrated thing about this game is the fact that it contains, pound-for-pound, the greatest collection of platforming stages of all time
