That didn't look too bad, but watching someone play like that makes it seem so easy ;__;.

... There was a Mushroom beneath the O? Argh, I got the O by jumping off the swinging spider.

Getting all the KONG letters net you an extra level. The Jiggies net you images. Hmm... I wonder which one is better... a level or a picture?

I didn't notice the mushroom either; I had to jump on a pile of eggs 10 feet ahead and swing back for the O.

Beat the Golden Temple last night, found all the jiggies and Kong letters, got...

Mirror Mode.
There are still two images in the tiki gallery I haven't gotten, though; they're the last two on the bottom row and are labeled "Only the most determined ape can get these." How do I get them? Do I have to beat Time Attack on all gold medals or something? Because if so I might as well throw in the towel now...

So I got to play for a good two hours, and so far my only major complaint is the damned Super Guide. I get it, I've died a bunch of times. Please go away, you stupid pig. I'm not going to take your help, so please leave.
That, and the controls take some time to get used to, but overall I'm liking this game. |

There really isn't much to hate about it, really. The controls are a bit of a pain to get used to, sure, but really, there isn't much I don't like about it.

Do you think it lives up to the series' legacy? And, hey, where'd Sailor Mercury go?

I only beat the first and got through about halfway the second (and barely the beginning of the third), so perhaps I can't accurately judge, but I do believe it lives up to the series. Yes it would have been nice to see some more classic characters (I was so certain that Funky and Candy would return, since they've been here since the beginning), and K. Rool being gone is kind of depressing, but gameplay wise, I felt this is a great addition to the series. Each game added something new, some sort of new gimmick or gameplay feature like Dixie being able to glide briefly or latch onto hooks or whatever, and while Returns takes a lot of inspiration from the first game, it's still got its own things to bring to the table- the Rocket Barrels, latching on to grassy platforms, using Diddy to roll your way through levels, etc. The enemies just have that Rare charm, I think- not so much the Tikis, but the frogs and sharks and *******, and the hidden Jiggies just adds to that Rare-feel of having to collect a bunch of crap. I think it's a fine addition to the series. My only major complaints are just the fact that the controls take some time to get used to, and the stupid Super Guide can't be disabled. I've only seen it in one level (Platform Panic in the Jungle world), but it's just annoying to see. And both of these major complaints are hardly major at all, so... Really, I don't find much to mark against this game.
And while not as bitter as in the past, Cranky can still be hilarious at times, which is always a plus. My avatar is gone because I stopped posting as much during the month and the lack of avatar was supposed to be some sort of symbolism for it. Now that the month is just about over, might as well bring it back. |

I'm in the Factory World and I've yet to play a level where I'm Diddy rolling through the level :S

When DK and Diddy are together, just shake continuously to roll. It's like what Dixie and Kiddy did in DKC3.
