Riverside Race: Difference between revisions

'''Riverside Race''' is the seventh [[level]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' It is also the second area of [[Kremwood Forest]].

Exclusive to this riverside level, there is a timer in the bottom-right corner of the screen that times how long it takes for [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] to complete the level. If the [[Kong]]s can beat [[Brash]]'s record (1:15:00) to the goal, then pay him a visit, he throws a tantrum, causing the path to the [[Banana Bird Cave]] to open. If the Kongs are unable to beat Brash's record, they can still continue. There are [[killer bees]] found only in this level that pursue the Kongs while they are above water during this level. The bees are invincible, so the Kongs must avoid them. [[Re-Koil]]s, [[Sneek]]s, [[Koco]]s, [[Knik-Knak]]s and [[Buzz (enemy)|Buzzes]] are also enemies here.

|Shortly after the Star Barrel, the primates reach an underwater area with three red Buzzes above it. The letter N is also above this water to the left of the red Buzzes.

|In the final area of water, the Kongs head through a thin passage through the ground, which contains the letter G in the center of it.

|At the second lake, Kiddy Kong should take the lead and roll onto the surface of the water. By hitting the B button (or the A button for the remake) as he hits the surface, Kiddy can bounce off of the water and shoot into the air. (Alternatively, if the player has both Kongs, jumping into the killer bees will give the player more vertical distance and thus be able to make the jump.) As he falls to the surface again, the ape should bounce and land on a high area of land. Nearby, the two Kongs can find a [[Bonus Barrel]], which they should jump into to begin a Bonus Level. There, they must collect 15 green bananas in a pool of water while dodging a lone Koco. Once enough bananas are collected, a [[Bonus Coin]] appears to the right. The Kongs have 30 seconds to complete the Bonus Level.

|After passing the letter N, the Kongs find three red Buzzes hovering over a body of water. They should swim underwater at this point to find an Invincibility Barrel, which grants them temporary invincibility when hit. With this limited power, they need to head back to the surface and bounce on the three Buzzes to reach a ledge. (Alternatively, if the player has both Kongs, jumping into the rightmost Buzz will give the player more vertical distance and thus be able to make the jump.) If they travel down the flat pathway, they come up to a Bonus Barrel. It takes them to a Bonus Level when entered, where they must travel through the area and defeat four Re-Koils. Once all the enemies are beat, a Bonus Coin appears at the end if the stage. They must defeat all of the enemies and grab the coin within the time limit of 15 seconds to complete the bonus successfully.
