Knocka: Difference between revisions

'''Knockas''' are green lanky [[Kremling]]s who hide in green [[barrel]]s with faces painted on them. They are encountered in both ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]''. They are the direct successor of [[Klobber]]s from ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]'', though unlike Klobbers, the barrel worn by Knockas can easily be differentiated from a regular barrel. In the Game Boy Advance version, they reuse the voice clips of Klobbers from its predecessor.

Knockas have two variants, [[Klasp]]s and [[Kuchuka]]s. The former climbs across a horizontal [[rope]] while hiding inside a [[TNT Barrel]] and the latter stays inside a purple barrel and throws bombs at [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]]. In the [[Game Boy Advance]] version, they have another variant: [[Kracka]], a ground variant of Klasp, appears in a [[Pacifica]] level.

When Knocka is carried by a Kong in the [[Game Boy Color]] version, it changes from green to red, because it uses the same exact sprite and palette as a regular carried barrel. When the Kong puts the Knocka back onto the ground, it changes back to its normal green color.
