A very large number of speedruns are done by exploiting bugs in the game. It's often quite harder to accomplish that than just running through a game the old fashioned way.
I just noticed King K Rool seems to be aware of Bowser's failures against Mario and tried to adapt in order to face Donkey Kong/Diddy. Instead of living in a castle full of lava, he's on a boat surrounded by water and will jump around like Mario as if he thought it was the best way to defeat an opponent.
And then we evolved this terminology, we realized that he kind of failed by the fact that his army was limited, while (with MY factory) We could theoretically create an INFINITE amount of soldiers. As well as possessing most if not all of the DK clans allies on the island. We were originally gonna hypnotize DK, but either A) He was too dumb to understand the music, or B) He was too intelligent. I pick the former TBH
As a kid playing this, I somehow accidentally discovered that Warp after 1-1. I was blown away as I didn't understand what had happened. I thought it was a glitch! Surreal seeing this 15+ years later. Great run, dude!
I found it by accident too, but then died in the level it warps you to and never figured out how to do it again. 20 years later I stumbled across a video of a guy explaining it and couldn’t believe it.
I was lucky/skilled enough to make it to the next save area after doing the skip on accident, i had that save file on my cartridge for decades... until my kids started playing my SNES. lol... on the plus side, they enjoy the game as much as i did at their age. Plus, its common knowledge about the game these days. so nothing super special to keep in the end.
After playing this for years, I finally beat it 101% on my own (with an insane amount of luck on some stages). The worst level was Platform Perils. So many Game Over screens because of that spawn of Satan level.
ngl, this is possibly one of the funniest videos on the internet something about the idea of dk and diddy glitching their way past levels, and diddy straight up just f l y i n g through the last one made me crack up too hard. and the icing on the cake was cranky being angry afterwards despite literally beating it in under 9 mins
You might have found everything if you'd been playing Cranky, but I'm pretty sure you wouldn't have beaten it in under 9 minutes. It's time to eat a slice of humble pie old man.
"Mwahahaha! I, King K. Rool, mastermind, have acquired the endless bananas of the Kongs! And with the army of kremlings, and the endless traps I've set all over their island, it will be impossible for them to... to..." "Sup. Where my bananas at?" "How are you here!? I loaded the last banana on my ship seven minutes ago!" "Ya so" "No matter! I will destroy you MYSELF!" "Lol"
I think when Cranky says at the end of the credits that he finished this entire game with 1 life in less than an hour he was referring to a similar run like this. He used glitches and exploitations to shortcut the game and finish it in a timely manner. ;)
The roll jump on platform perils is the most magnificent thing I've ever witnessed. Bloody glorious. It's just fun to see the silly ways speedrunners try to break the game to find the fastest way to do it. And anyone who calls cheating needs to get their eyes checked.
Holy shit this is blowing my mind right now. 20+ years ago when i was pkaying this i somehow glitched over through worlds and had no idea how i did it. This is like a cold case finally solved.
When I was a kid I accidently found a glitch that took me straight from the bend in between level 1 and 2 straight to the master necky battle without all the levels in between which would cut this record down considerably
The warps between the first two levels will take you to level 3-5, which is done here. There are two other warps in the first world which will also take you to that level and one that takes you to 1-2. The first Master Necky fight is in W2 and the one in W6 cannot be warped to. The warp used here in level 3-5 that takes you to 6-2 is the furthest you can warp in the game.
A speedrun is about rushing through a game, mostly with using glitches,which aren´t supposed to be in a game. This has nothing to do with playing. Its just a showing off.
If you actually want an answer to it, here's how we found the big warp that was used in this run: pastebin.com/atidsPCn I can gladly fill in with more details if curious =).
That is awesome! It would be cool for a commentary video as well describing how the glitches work. I'm a sucker for knowing what in the source allows glitches and the such to work such a way.
You can find more info on how these glitches work as well as a leaderboard (This run is actually very outdated and far from being the World Record) for the DKC series: dkcspeedruns.com/ If you want to have more detailed explanations to why and how some of these things work, I'll gladly explain =).
Can someone explain what happens at 2:12? He left the bonus area with both kongs and then entered the next stage without going back to the map and with Diddy only?
Here's one explanation on how it works: tasvideos.org/3075S.html Additional info here when the first run to use this type of warp was made: tasvideos.org/2876S.html If you have further questions afterwards, I'll gladly explains!
I know this video is 6 years old... but it should be noted that this is only possible with version 1.0 donkey kong country and possibly 1.1 version. Any rerelease copy of donkey kong country on the eshop is version 1.2 and does not have the warp glitch anymore at the start of the game.
That is correct, it also works on 1.1. It's also so old that this has been improved many times since it was made and was only World Record for a couple of weeks. We now have 7:59 as the WR.
Im trying to learn this run myself, but am unsure for certain gliches what matters and what doesnt. i can get to the bird but not cant get through the wall. could you or someone tell me what i need to do?
the music from 5:30-6:00 made that glitch so much better XD
I knew I couldn't be the only one who felt this.
damn right xDDDD !

As a non-speedrunner, and old school fan of DKC, the first 3 minutes of this broke my damn brain.
My brain broke in the first minute How did this person skip worlds so quick?!?
@@BatspiderFab Funny that you mention it.. you see if you press the a button at the frame tha it is at the curve/middlebpart u swap worlds
@@BatspiderFab he presses start+select to exit the level it's something called split up at 2:10 and 1:00 I think

The legendary sound design of DKC, everyone.
I was thinking the same thing watching this. Perfect sound design
That Platform Perils glitch was legit. The wrong warps were cool and all, but dat armadillo glitch made my jaw slack.
It's hard as fuck to perform. I mean you need to hit the armidillo the same frame he hits you. (I think its a 1 60th of a second window).

Kai Wegner Pro football is also a showing off...
Kai Wegner its not about showing off its about comparing times with others and seeing personal improvement
If there's one thing I learned about speedruns, it's that they're not playing the games as gamers, but as coders.
Anyone who sincerely uses the phrase "real gamers" needs an automatic wedgie
