I sent a PM with a tip regarding that level. Thanks btw, for downloading and trying out the patch. ^_^

"Sweet. I haven't seen many full DKC 2 hacks before. Well, I guess I have, but the only ones I've seen are insanely hard and just painful to play. But yours actually looks reasonable, although it certainly looks hard in some places."

Thank you. Yeah, my goal was to make it as challenging as possible without requiring the use of tool assisting. Maybe a handful of save-states could help, but nothing outrageous like 1/4th slowdown and save-state every other second.

"That DK coin at the end of that video looks like a pain to get."

It's definitely scary, but I'll PM you a hint about that part if you want.

"I'll definitely play this when I get the chance. Is it completely done yet or is this just a demo of a few levels or something?"

Thanks! It is completely done. Even Stronghold Showdown has been modified.

Thank you ansujitsu !

Thank you r0xm2n !

(Is that pronounced "rocks man" ?)

I would be HONORED. =D

Oh, btw, i have videos of all the levels being beaten. They aren't "speedruns" though, just simply beating each level. I also ignore any hidden DK Coins. After a while, I also start to ignore the KONG letters (Although there is a level where ignoring the KONG letters is actually a wise decision. HINT: The only level where the KONG levels are still in their original locations).

Honestly, when I was making this hack, I thought to myself, If they CAN use save state, then there's nothing I can do to stop them. There's not toooo many parts that require it, I've tested all the levels and beaten them all at least once without save state, but I admit that the task was pretty daunting.

If there is a point where you find yourself repeatedly dying, and you just want to save time getting to that point, then I can understand the use of save state. Now, the combination of save state and slow down, THAT I can recognize as being a cheap playing method. Those Kaizo Mario hacks are damn near unplayable without slowdown, and that I feel is the major difference between those hacks and mine. In my hacks, you'll likely need save states to help you, but you should never need slowdown.

English editors for DKC2 & 3, heeeeyyyyyy:
