Re: Donkey Kong Country 2 -- The Secret to Strength
"Drunk Sonic" was my friend's nickname for the Cat o' 9 Tails, so this would appear to be a common association. I'd not be surprised if the resemblance was deliberate.

Re: Donkey Kong Country 2 -- The Paradisers
Okay I give up, what's the lp title gimmick.
In other news, the haunted rollercoaster level is pretty intense, it's a step up from target terror

Re: Donkey Kong Country 2 -- The Paradisers
fun fact about the title gimmick!
it was decided at pretty much the last second. Like I had no idea what to do. I didn't want to use diddy's part in the dk rap because I knew the series would have too many videos, since I was pretty much flush with dkc1. I think I got the idea like as the video was being uploaded to youtube.

I always loved how the four Kackles in Haunted Hall have different color bandanas. They're all blue in the GBA version, though. :c

Re: Donkey Kong Country 2 -- The Paradisers
You know. You always hear about how DKC1 has only a single ice cave level, but no one really mentions that DKC2 only has a single haunted house level. Lots more they could've done with that concept, but all they *did* was just... haunted roller coaster. Kind of a shame.

Re: Donkey Kong Country 2 -- The Paradisers
I think it makes more sense for there to only be a single haunted house level bc the level associated w/ it is a lot more obviously a "set piece" if that makes sense? Whereas the ice cave in DKC1 feels like they had all these ice cave assets and just... Forgot to use them for more than one level.

Re: Donkey Kong Country 2 -- The Paradisers
Yeah, I s'pose that makes sense. I just like the "Haunted House" music and scenery, and would've liked to see it get at least one more stage based on it.Money wrote: ↑4 years ago I think it makes more sense for there to only be a single haunted house level bc the level associated w/ it is a lot more obviously a "set piece" if that makes sense?

Re: Donkey Kong Country 2 -- Speed
mr cow, the Klampons are this game's version of the Klaptraps. They're the crawly big headed chompy dudes.
Also, there's no difference between hair and fur. We just tend to reserve hair for humans while other mammals only get the fur usage. However, hairs on arthropods such as spiders and insects are referred to as hair for some reason. So yes, Squitter is hairy, not furry.

Re: Donkey Kong Country 2 -- Speed
Fuzz on arthropods is sometimes referred to as hairs. Hair on arthropods is often referred to as setae with fuzzy spiders being setose. They are also called macrotrichia (Greek word for Big Hair), or sensilla if they are hairs have attached neurons and the hairs are designed for sensing the environment.AuraLancer wrote: ↑4 years ago

There might be more accurate connotations for the terms than what I'm giving here.
There are also sub cellular hairs called microtrichia, which you'd need a scanning electron microscope to see.
To differentiate setae from microtrichia. Setae are multicellular structures while microtrichia are not. Each seta has a Trichogen cell that grows the hair, a Tormogen cell that forms the socket where the seta exits from, and an attached sensory cell.
This is from my textbook so I suspect this to be an oversimplification.
The scales on moths are derived from macrotrichia and are flattened setae. Urticating hairs found on
spiders and some lepidoptera caterpillars are also modified setae.
Photo I took of a fuzzy caterpillar on a pine needle.

Re: Donkey Kong Country 2 -- I Don't Know You
I'm glad raocow finished the Krow rematch with Dixie. Sure, everything about the fight is easier with Diddy, but it's still essential to let Dixie land the final blow, as there's something just so unspeakably awesome about shredding furiously on a guitar in a rainstorm while a ghost explodes in to stardust behind you.

Re: Donkey Kong Country 2 -- I Don't Know You
I know it's a bit of a stretch to think the kongs would be non lethally taking down all the kremlings, especiallly when you see tnt barrels and stuff. It's still pretty wild for the game to explicitly have a boss fight to go "yeah no, Krow is dead, you killed him."
Re: Donkey Kong Country 2 -- I Don't Know You
no yeah the kongs totally annihilated the kremling race by the end of DK64, that must be why they don't appear anymore in DKC Returns and Tropical Freeze.

Why not "Kredits", like the fake credits in the first DKC game? :3

Not a fictional currency
Here's a bunch of fictional currencies from games I've played if raocow needs one

Re: Donkey Kong Country 2 -- Fun and Work
For whatever reason, of all the levels in the game, Windy Well gave me the most trouble when I was a kid. I am not sure why, it's not as hard as many of the other endgame levels.

Re: Donkey Kong Country 2 -- Fun and Work
My thinking was specifically
the currency in Babylon 5, though I suppose credits are probably really common as far as fictional currencies go
