Construction Site Fight
Construction Site Fight[1] is the twenty-fourth level in the Game Boy game, Donkey Kong Land. It is also the first area in the Big Ape City. ContentsSummary[edit]Construction Site Fight is the first skyscraper level. It is the first level to feature balloon platforms, which Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong must use to cross gaps between the buildings. The Kongs can easily fall off the balloons, which inflate and deflate as they rise and fall respectively. Both Bonus Areas are accessed from jumping from a balloon. Enemies in the level include Gnawties, Zingers, Armies, Kritters and Hogwashes. This level is known as Construction Site Fight, although it does not take place in a construction site. The level is also strangely filled with balloons, though the level's title does not make note of that as it normally would. However, another level, Balloon Barrage, takes place in a construction site, and does not have balloons. Because of this the level names are incorrect, and should be switched around to match the correct description. Therefore, it was very likely that there was an error in the instruction booklet during the creation of Donkey Kong Land. This error was not addressed in the digital manual for the Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console version. Layout[edit]From the start of the level, the Kongs must ride up a balloon to break open a DK Barrel. They must walk on to the next balloon and ride it up to a high platform, where the Kongs will encounter a wide abyss. It will have to be crossed using the balloons floating around above it. After jumping to each balloon and getting across, they must jump down a few platforms and come up to another pit. Again, balloons should be used to cross it. Once the heroes jump off of the final balloon in this area, they will land on a tire to bounce off of and land farther through the level to another gap. Only one balloon is needed to get over this. When they are over the pit, the group must jump onto more balloon platforms and make it too a safe area, with only a few Gnawties. A few steps from there will lead the Kongs to yet another abyss. With balloons, it must be crossed. On the other end of this gap is the Continue Point. From there, the Kongs must keep going east and hop atop several more balloons to cross a wide abyss. On the other side of the abyss, they must walk along a rather long path and soon come up to another gap. As usual, they will need to jump balloon-to-balloon, until they reach the next solid platform. There, they must defeat a Hogwash and hop over a small gap. The Kongs will then near yet another gap. With balloons, they will have to shoot upwards and get to a high ledge of a skyscraper. Walking along this path will take them to one of the level's final abysses. The Kongs must hop to many several balloons than before, and watch out for enemies to make it to the other end of the abyss. Shortly after landing, though, they will have to yet again jump to several balloons over a wide pit. Once they get over each of the balloons, they will be on a long area outside of a skyscraper. If they travel a little farther, they'll find a portal. When they jump into it, it will take them to the next level. Enemies[edit]Items and objects[edit]
