Warp Barrel: Difference between revisions

In the [[Game Boy Advance]] remake of ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', Warp Barrels replace the [[Blast Barrel]]s from the Super NES and [[Game Boy Color]] versions that send [[Donkey Kong|Donkey]] and Diddy Kong near the end of the level. They are much more common than the original barrels, with warps appearing once per level. Warp Barrels were redesigned with the "W" on a red explosive effect; this design also appears in the Game Boy Advance remake of ''Donkey Kong Country 2''. By entering a Warp Barrel, the Kongs are taken to a space with its own music track that does not exist in other versions of the game - an ice walkway in a black void, with pictures of some levels, each showing a different environment, hovering across in the background. On the icy path there are bananas that spell out "WARP", and the end of the scene puts the Kongs near the end of the level. In all versions of the game, [[Stop & Go Station]] has an off-screen warp point that functions as one of these barrels, which is found by walking into the entrance to the left at the very start.
