Diddy Kong Racing: Difference between revisions

|Bananas are scattered in every course. By collecting them, the player is able to increase the top-speed of his or her vehicle until the banana counter reaches ten (with the exception of the VITAMINB magic code that enables bananas to infinitely boost any character's top speed). After that, the bananas do not affect the vehicle any further. If players get hit (by a level 1-3 red balloon or level 2-3 green balloon), they lose some bananas. Additionally, bananas play a key role in the battle games of Icicle Pyramid and Darkwater Beach, where they act as the player's life gauge, and in Smokey Castle, where they need to be collected and stored in a treasure chest. If the BOGUSBANANAS magic code is in use, bananas will reduce speed rather than increase it.
