DONKEY KONG COUNTRY 3 SERIES

Note: This overlaps with various objects, such as the boat.Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! (also called Donkey Kong Country 3 or DKC3) is the third game in the Donkey Kong Country series of video games and the third and final game in the original Donkey Kong Country trilogy, overall. It's strange and not something normally done in DKC3.

DONKEY KONG COUNTRY 3 ZIP

Given that the big thing with this TAS is the new zip and Barrel Drop Jumps, I'd say a good screenshot would be the part just before the zip in 4-1, where Kiddy is riding the barrel. However, this can also be used to ignore the waterfall boundaries that normally keep you inside when behind one. This is very glitchy, and can be tricked into putting one or both kongs on the 'wrong' side of the waterfall, typically resulting in them falling through the ground.

Wrong-side Waterfall: You're supposed to go behind certain waterfalls and in front of others.

Spider Abuse: Using frame and pixel perfect movement, it's possible to fall through Arich and hit him with a barrel from above.

Rope Snap: Same concept as Corner Snap, but this time with snapping to grab horizontal ropes.

This is especially important in water and flying levels to squeeze past enemies.

Minimize: The Kongs and animal buddies have different hitboxes depending on the direction they are facing and if they are turning.

You can also roll into them the wrong way from above. regardless of whether you're behind or in front.

Just Defend: Klaptraps are big and scary and called Krimps in this game, but you can roll into them if you're facing the same way they are.

However, you can throw immediately after pressing jump, cancelling the jump and getting a faster throw on the ground.

Fast Throw: While picking up a barrel, it's possible to jump much faster than throw.

This also causes the next lightning to appear much faster (too fast to hit K Rool with).

Fast Shock: In the final phase, K Rool will only be zapped for a single frame (instead of sixty) if he touches the lightning as it despawns.

This can be avoided by being at the very top of the jump or by twirling. jumping on a platform), there's typically a delay where her hair has to fall down before any action can be taken.

Fast Landing: If Dixie lands from a short height (e.g.

Corner Snap: This game is very generous with its corners, and this is abused in water and flying levels to gain height in a variety of places.

By pausing on a specific frame while the game fades out after death, it will be treated as a win instead.

Bleak Skip: Easily the biggest time save and the primary reason for using J.

The end result will be switching to the other kong much faster than normally possible. This can be skipped if you get hit on the same frame.

Barrel Break Skip: Normally, breaking a DK barrel to get a kong takes 32 frames.

2-1 Jumps: Not technically a new trick, but the official RTA name and now used in far more places.

Due to the fact that most terrain is hollow (causing you to get stuck inside), this has limited use in Any%, but it can be used in a ton of places in 105%. By desyncing the kongs, you can move the camera such that she gets stuck in a wall, causing her to 'zip' to the top of it.

Zipping: While throwing Dixie, she can't leave the camera boundaries.

By itself, this doesn't do much, but it allows.

Kong Throw Desync: When throwing Dixie, hitting an enemy/barrel will cause Kiddy to start moving again.

This can be taken advantage of in water and flying levels by releasing Y for a frame to snap to an intermediate speed a few frames faster than it would normally be reached.

Velocity Snapping: The kongs' horizonal speed will snap to their target speed when sufficiently close.

This can be further used to do a 2-1 jump in midair, but I didn't find any places to save time doing this. If you press B on a specific frame while doing that, you can jump in midair.

Barrel Drop Jump: By jumping on a specific frame while setting down a barrel, you can set it down in midair.

As is evident from watching the comparison video or looking at the stage breakdown, it saves a *lot* of time. This TAS is done using J 1.0 instead of U.

Emulator: Bizhawk 2.2.2 using bsnes core.
