Great artwork Jero

I'm glad to see that projects like this are still kept alive, it's always great to see. I don't know too much about this resource editor but it seems like I should definitely check it out!

That Krusha redesign looks sick, glad to see a reference to the gray Krushas from DKC! by the way welcome to the Atlas, didn't know you were on here too Jero

Would love to hear what you think so I could make the game better. Woah those videos blew me away. They really capture the magic of DK's world... makes me wish we got a game like this. Can't really give any advice either since your project just looks too good! Amazing work bud (and welcome back to ...

I forgot to post this here, but I tweeted about this subject a few months ago and one of DKC3's developers actually responded to it! He pretty much confirmed that Kastle Kaos was K. Rool's mysterious "backup castle". I like the idea, since it exactly explains why DKC3 even takes place in t...

(Happy late valentines day everyone)

Is it just me or are the cheat codes from the first two DKC games somehow much more obscure than those from DKC3? Perhaps it's just because the codes from DKC3 have a lot more significant changes like adding a Christmas theme or changing the Kongs' colors.

This is genuinely such a bop, I love it

This project sounds cool, what's it all about anyway?

I'm not sure how canon the Land games are to the Country trilogy, however. After all, DKL3 was about a race to find the Lost World, which Dixie and Kiddy already did. Fair enough, but I like to think that the Lost World from DKL3 is referring to another hidden world somewhere in the Northern Kremis...

2328. where

Wow, this mod looks amazing!! I've never seen a concept like RPG boss battles in DKC, and the tilesets from DKC2 and DKC3 look great. I can't imagine how hard it must've been to accomplish all of this, this is far more than a simple level hack. Looking forward to trying it out!

Indeed, Tanager, and you might be right, Flurry. There aren't any banana birds in Krematoa, so that might mean something as well. Maybe the volcano was closed until it rose from the sea, which is why is wasn't flooded? That's likely it, yeah. What if K. Rool became a scientist because he no longer ...

Which of Funky's outfits is the best?

I don't think Pacifica was ever planned for the SNES, they probably just made Kracka before finishing all stages because they had a similar enemy in DKC2 which they wanted to carry over to DKC3. I'm not sure why they left it out though, Kracka would've fit into later stages in Kaos Kore or Krematoa....

Thanks! Yeah I remember seeing an image of that somewhere on DKC Atlas, but I don't remember where it was, so I thought I could just ask here.

You could PM me or talk to me about it on Discord, if that's what you're asking!

Who's the best of the Brothers Bear?

I just randomly recalled the time I predicted DKCTF on Switch with playable Funky before it was even announced in the Direct :krool: and you know it wasn't edited because of Super Luigi's reply :thumbs: Wouldn't it be cool if Nintendo announced a new DKC game in the next Direct? It will also featur...

Perhaps is how he gets to the Knautilus? That's definitely it. Consider this: In the official Donkey Kong Country 3 player's guide, it says that the Rocket Barrel found in Krematoa "fell from Baron K. Roolenstein's trash pile". How could it have fallen from Kastle Kaos into the sunken vol...

Absolutely, I'd be glad to hear more about it

Who's the most attractive Kremling and why?

It's been a while since someone has posted here but there's something I wanted to address considering the rare Kracka render which was discussed near the very start of this topic. A while ago, I found a rather high quality render of Kracka in an archived guide for the DKC trilogy. It's definitely no...

Sorry for the huge bump but there's a question that's been on my mind and I thought this topic would be the best place to ask this. In the All-time greats ranking at the end of the game, where you see your completion percentage, your rank, and the other records from Kongs like Cranky and Swanky, we ...

I just noticed that in Kastle Kaos' main room there used to be a Frankenstein-esque table in the center of the room, attached to the ceiling by a couple of chains. Someone broke through the chains though and now the wooden board which served as the table is now lying on the floor in the background.....

Does that mean you have a blue Yoshi at home?

2316. Cove,

Yes of course, everybody knows that!

Do you think Cranky's speedrun of DKC in an hour is true or just made up?

Thank you guys! See ya! Now here's another random thought: I feel like Winky would either fight Dixie or stare at her like he does with everything. I think it'd be really funny if Winky confuses Dixie for a fly and sticks his tongue out. Speaking of his tongue, if Winky ever returns it would be coo...

Exactly! I've always found it a bit strange how you get to ride Ellie for such a short time before reaching the goal in Lakeside Limbo. They probably wanted to keep the tradition of the first level having an animal buddy but only realized relatively late that Ellie and ropes don't mix well, so they ...

Interesting. All of it. Itll be interesting having you here, I thought I knew most DKC lore, but you have brought up some I don't. They don't call me the biggest Donkey Kong fan for nothing! :swanky: (no one has called me that before) Kiddy Kong may have been visible for two seconds in the movie wh...

What's the best song from the DKC cartoon?

I love the DKC cartoon! Admittedly, I haven't watched the full thing, but so far I've been enjoying it. I love the characters, even if they're kinda dumb sometimes (looking at you, Donkey), and each episode has a fun idea. I haven't seen Dixie that much in the cartoon though, I hope she gets more ti...

Perhaps Poisonous Pipeline is a secret entrance inside? That's probably what the purple glow is. That's definitely how the Kongs got into the castle, I can't imagine K. Rool just left the front door open for them. K. Rool probably dumped whatever chemicals he had into the pipes so nobody would be a...

I don't think any of them hate each other, it's just Cranky living up to his name. I never really saw the meta commentary from Cranky as canon though. That's part of why I dislike Donkey Kong Land's story... it can't be explained with in-universe logic anymore

Candy Kong must have been an inspiration, since she's pretty tall and Tiny's role model. Perhaps Tiny can make herself grow too, not just shrink.

Seeing how she runs a music shop in DK64, what is Candy's favorite instrument?

I think Nintendo is at the very least aware of their existence, otherwise we wouldn't have seen Swanky in the Mario movie. Maybe they'll try to establish Chunky as part of the main "DK crew", since out of all the Kongs they could have chosen to sit in the audience with Diddy & Dixie th...
