Actually, I find that Funky makes hard mode harder. He appears to have the largest hit box out of any of the playable Kongs. As a result, I wound up ditching him in the very levels I thought I would be using him the most, including most of the underwater levels. I couldn’t get him past the falling chainsaws in Current Capers, and I found him to be an asset only in Shoal Atoll, where there is a greater chance of running out of air than getting hit by an enemy (including those orange sharks).
@@StuartSimon I am rusty with platformers as of late, I think this is harder than the original SNES games. Obviously I beat the game, but the challenge is all in how you collect everything and how perfect you do every level.
@@StuartSimon I feel like Hard Mode balances out Funky Kong. You get the abilities of Diddy, Dixie, and Cranky combined and then some, but you also only have one hit point. If Funky Kong wasn't designed as an easy mode, I feel like he'd fit right at home as a hard mode exclusive.
@@Ebb-2000 Yes, but were you able to get Funky past the specific obstacles I mentioned? If you did, then Funky might well balance out hard mode. If you didn’t, then Funky just makes those levels harder than they would have been with Diddy or Dixie.
Funky was always my favorite kong, but I never got the chance to play as him. Got my Tropical Freeze last week and even being someone who always plays my games at the high difficulty available I said "screw it! I'll play as Funky first!". Of course I've imposed myself some challenges/restrictions like only using double jump to get collectibles, losing 4 hearts = death, only 2 hearts for carting mine, etc... I'm having a blast with this game and I'm really glad Hard Mode is available to Funky.
I know I'm late, but no you don't need to collect those to complete hard mode just pass the level. However if you collect KONG it turns from red to blue and is an extra achievement I guess.
So ive beat every level got all the Kong and puzzle pieces and it still want switch to hard mode… I’m just not understanding! But it has the symbol for hard mode on my screen im confused I need help?
I WAS GONNA FIND THE ARMS PLAYLIST BUT I COULDN'T FIND IT BUT EVERYTIME I DONT FIND THOSE PLAYLISTS THAT IAM TRYING TO FIND THEY WANNA COME BACK TO ME IN MY HEADMINDS AND DO MORE BAD THINGS TO ME IN MY HEADMINDS OR WHATEVER THATS CALLED AND WHATEVER THAT IS AND PERFECTION CALLED OR WHATEVER THATS CALLED AND WHATEVER THAT IS NO THATS NOT GONNA WORK OR GONNA FLY OR GONNA HAPPEN THEY BETTER NOT EVER DO THAT AGAIN OR WHATEVER THATS CALLED AND WHATEVER THAT IS AND PERFECTION CALLED OR WHATEVER THATS CALLED AND WHATEVER THAT IS
@@autumn-f2d4i So far, I’ve cleared every level in the first 5 worlds of the game with a Shiny Gold Medal & no damage, and that was all in normal mode/without Funky Kong.

I like how in world 6 you can see stuff from dkcr levels on the background
Funky is a nice way of making Hard Mode easier lol
For a true hard mode, you should try it with Donkey.

The new Funky mode, but the Chad way:
0:46 You can optimize a little more by full bouncing off the Punchy Paddy and doubling to reach the ledge.

19:50 I LOVE How He Just Beats The Hell Out Of Him
You sir, are a platforming god
LOL I did it all with donkey Kong
@@Peace_in_Christ ikr? Not impressive if you do this with Funky.
Donkey Kong (very hard)
Funky Kong (very easy)
😉🤙
Beating this game with one heart is too difficult for me.
2:48:30 When the first time I've seen that on my WiiU I was so excited
An absolute legend
When you realise that cake's gonna go stale
Not bad wasn’t easy to beat I searched long for a video like this the last world was bad 😅
ONLY ONE HEART!?!?!?!
And no checkpoint
Awesome.
Do you need also in hard mode collect the blue kong letters.?
I know I'm late, but no you don't need to collect those to complete hard mode just pass the level. However if you collect KONG it turns from red to blue and is an extra achievement I guess.
@@whitedeath5057 Thank youuu! Needed this!
Funky’s rolling around at the speed of sound
More like 100000000000000000000000000000000000 times the speed of light

when you start the level look at the options and select hard mode

Hard mode... but using Funky Kong???
why?, Funky Kong is the "easy mode" character, what's the point of the video?
To subvert expectations
And have fun while doing so
They took away the checkpoints for hard mode?! Isn't having only one health already challenging enough?
Is it REALLY a hard mode if you use funky?
Literally

Does anyone notice that on world two it says 20:17 2017 lol
hi
Funky mode is for noobs, even "hard" mode with funky is easy af. Do that in original mode ;) thats the shit
Come On, It's Bad Enough For With Hard Mode With Funky Mode. HOW DO YOU EXPECT ME TO DO IT IN ORIGINAL MODE?!
