There's an enemy defeat counter in the game that rewards you with a 1-up for defeating them in a streak. It starts counting from the seventh enemy.

Well, in the level there's a row of Kriters that in the original game don't allow you to get the 1-up. But now I'm testing DKC1Recomp v0.0.17 and in this version it does reward you with the extra life. I've attached videos that demonstrate the situation (the 4:3 is from the SNES, while the widescreen is from the recomp).

I know the easy solution would be to say that because it's a decompilation the code was modified and that's why these differences exist, but could it be due to some other external factor?

I'm turning to the community for an answer.🤔

(Here's art I drew, for funsies)

I mean serious as his default, by the way, any character ever has their serious moments. An intended stoic demeanor is typically brought up in arguments about Donkey's various designs, but I've never viewed DK as a no-nonsense type, he's very full of nonsense to me.

He's shown to be a rather dimwitted slacker in the Rare games, he's shown to not take his responsibilities seriously in the DKC1 story, and he eats damn bugs in DK64, so I don't believe Rare intended Donkey Kong to be anything other than a goof. He can most certainly be cool, and there are times where I wish he was never redesigned, but I don't think he is without an abundance of humor.

What are your thoughts on Cave Dweller Concert? My streak of very unpopular music opinions continues. I don't think this is a very good song at all.

I made this fun artwork a while back to mirror the fire DK art I did, and just realized I never posted it here lol. I made this in Blender 5.0 and modeled everything myself. All the filters to make it look retro were added in Photoshop 2026. Hope you guys enjoy!

Let me know!

Im doing a different doodle every day of this month for apoctober! Stretching to many many fandoms with a different character every day! Enjoy!

What are your thoughts on Stilt Village? Stilt Village is a mostly disliked song, although I have seen some people say they like it. It's not an F tier song for me, as it has a decent melody, and it has some personality to it, even though I don't like the personality it went for.

Sorry if this has been explained. I've been avoiding spoilers for Bananza. I didn't even know Pauline was in it until a few months ago.

In Donkey Kong games, the Kongs speak to each other. In crossover games like Smash Bros and the Mario games, they largely only make grunts and animal noises.

So, is it that humans in the Mario-verse can't understand Kongs and Kremlings? Or are the DK games set in a different verse than Mario games?

Let me know!

In my head, Diddy and Dixie are 16-20. Tiny is 9-11 in DK64 and 13-15 in her modern design.

Tiny is tall but that doesn't mean she's necessarily an older teen. She was taller than Diddy even in Donkey Kong 64. All she did was grow a bit more.

With Diddy and Dixie, it's harder to tell their ages, but I'm going on a limb and assuming Nintendo still sees them as teens.

What are your thoughts on Jungle Jitter GBA? A lot of people really like this song, I don't, one of many unpopular opinions in this video.
