Sticky Situation (Donkey Kong Country Returns)

Sticky Situation is the thirty-fourth level in Donkey Kong Country Returns, as well as the first area of the Cliff world.

This level takes place on a high mountain, where there is a sticky substance filling gaps in the rock floors. Many of the bone platforms seen in this level float in this substance, but they sink in with Donkey and Diddy Kong's weight, making them tilt. If the Kongs are to fall into this, they are unable to jump high until the substance falls off. Another major obstacle in this level is its many falling platforms that seem to ride along the sticky substance. The platforms all fall at different rates, so the Kongs have to be careful of where they step. The enemies in this level consist only of dinosaur skeleton-like foes who all take a maximum of two hits to defeat.
