Buzzbite: Difference between revisions

'''Buzzbites'''<ref>"Critters 2 Gallery" in the "Extras" section of ''Donkey Kong Country Returns''.</ref> are insect-like enemies in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'' and ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D]]''. They inhabit several levels of the game, namely [[Jagged Jewels]], [[Vine Valley (level)|Vine Valley]], and [[Five Monkey Trial]]. Buzzbites rapidly rotate their legs around their stubby bodies in order to move along platforms, walls, and grassy layers. Their appearance is that of a violet colored [[wikipedia:Arthropod|arthropod]] with cream and indigo striped legs. The ''Donkey Kong Country Returns'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] guide claims that Buzzbites are completely indestructible<ref>"You can’t defeat them. Just jump over them, since they will cause harm if they touch you." &ndash; page 26</ref>, whereas they can actually be defeated with a [[barrel]]. Buzzbites will harm [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] upon direct contact and drain a heart from their health counter, but can be avoided with a jump.
