Rope: Difference between revisions

In ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' , there are only vertical ropes, which are either stationary or repeatedly swing back and forth like a [[vine]], the latter of which is mainly used to travel across large gaps. Both the regular ropes and the swinging ropes first appear in the second level, [[Ropey Rampage]], where [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] must use them to travel between treetops. In later levels, some vertical ropes only start to swing once the Kongs grab on to them. Swinging ropes constantly sway back and forth without a loss of momentum. When grabbing on to a swinging rope, the [[Kong]]s are moved down to the lower end, even if they grab the top. The Kongs cannot climb up a swinging rope, and in some cases have to jump from several of them, usually while avoiding enemies, in order to progress. In [[Forest Frenzy]], there are long vertical ropes that slowly move across pits. None of the [[Animal Friend]]s have the ability to hold on to a rope.
