List of Donkey Kong Land III pre-release and unused content

This article pertains to the beta elements of Donkey Kong Land III.

Beta elements

Donkey Kong Land III originally had the sub-title "The Race Against Time", it was later removed, presumably due to the fact that the other two installments in the Donkey Kong Land series did not possess sub-titles, so it would seem slightly pointless to give Donkey Kong Land III one.Evidence is the clocks in the Super Game Boy Version.

Music

Donkey Kong Land III has an unused track in the game. It is an 8-bit version of Rocket Run, the music played in Rocket Rush in the SNES version of Donkey Kong Country 3. [1] It is unknown whether a Rocket Rush-style level was intended to be implemented in the game, or whether this was a test track.

Animal friends

A glitched version of Rattly the Rattlesnake is available by hacking (specifically, by using the GameShark code 010600DF).Template:Fact He has some properties left over from Donkey Kong Country 2 and Donkey Kong Land 2, including jumping high, and being able to jump on any enemy, including enemies that the Kongs can't jump on (such as Buzz and Bristles). A Rattly icon can also be seen on the bottom of the screen as well, which is taken from Donkey Kong Land 2. However, upon entering or exiting a bonus level, Rattly will become glitchy, turning into an immobile smoke ball, which is the same sprite used when switching Kongs. It is likely that Rattly is simply leftover code from DKL2, since DKL3's game engine is essentially a modified DKL2 game engine.
