Those are the Temple levels. They unlock if you collect all the KONG letters in all the levels of the world. They’re extra challenging levels, so I’ll be playing them all in the bonus video after I beat the game.
Be careful of those flaming Tikis, only you can prevent forest fires!
I appreciate you Jay. I think this is the world where I stopped really being able to get all the stuff on every stage, so it’s cool seeing someone get it all in one fell swoop.
Also I was waiting so long for the response to the horrible wave of spiders. It was worth it.
Yeah, this level gets really tricky with the puzzle piece placement, it’s probably the area I had to use Squawks the most during practice
Look at all that fossil- Oh, hi Cranky!
I think of all the worlds, this one is my favorite aesthetically? I’m not sure, it feels like it is at any rate.
What they should of done, if they were going to have to reuse a boss here, is make it be the first Thugly’s skeleton. Then it’d be on theme, at least.
I mean that sort of happens in the first New Super Mario Bros, where the first boss you fight is Bowser and then near the end of the game you fight his skeleton.

Yeah and that also rules, for the most part.
I liked that this Thugly was actually different from the first. He didn’t just have a different jumping pattern. It’d be cool if he had more appearances that kept getting harder, but that’d mean losing out on other unique bosses.
How many worlds/bosses are there?
I forget myself but I think this next one is the penultimate world. After all it is a factory, and this is Donkey Kong Country.
You are correct. But after the final world, we still have to play all the bonus temples. Also in the 3DS version there’s an entire extra world.
Featuring the return of Thugly?
Unfortunately no, that little buddy is in Heaven
Then we missed out on an angel Thugly fight.

The concept art for the factory is one of my favorites, I love the implementation of old Nintendo systems into it’s design!
Yeah, that rules. I also like how the big factory concept art has “Barrel&/Or Barrel” on it. Something about that feels funny to me.
Also god I remembered none of this world and it looks super tough.
Yeah it can be a lot, I actually died so much in one level it tried to activate the super guide

Welcome to the tiki tiki tiki hunt!
God you really kicked that boss’s ass really hard. It was surprisingly difficult for me on my first time. It didn’t help I had like one life left and I was afraid of going through that flying segment again.
But yeah, good job on this. Now for the temples, which I’ve never seen before. That’ll be fun!
A friend of mine found some lost concept art for the game, seems like we weren’t so off topic after all!
Seriously though, everyone should follow the fantastic AwrySquare on Twitter!
