Grasping a peg with the character’s right or left hand will respectively cause them to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise around it, and the player must use their spinning momentum to propel them through the air.īoth the triggers and the D-pad can be used to affect horizontal character movement while airborne or on the ground.
Pegs and pegboards are positioned throughout the environment for characters to grasp, allowing the player to climb and traverse their surroundings. By holding the trigger, the character’s fist will clamp shut, grasping anything in its range.
In DK: King of Swing, gameplay is primarily based around the use of the L and R triggers, which control the player character’s left and right hands respectively.
With such strong gameplay and graphics, Donkey Kong Land is a formidable effort considering what it accomplishes on a portable system.DK: King of Swing is a 2005 puzzle-platform game developed by Paon and published by Nintendo for the Game Boy Advance. King of Swing diverges from the gameplay of other games in the Donkey Kong series, instead featuring characters rotating around pegs to progress similar to the NES game Clu Clu Land. King of Swing has a single-player adventure mode, as well as a competitive multiplayer mode for up to four players. One false move, and you could lose a hit or an entire life. Some later stages require painstakingly careful movements. The difficulty was cranked up on this cart. The sound is tinny and benign with subdued effects and a subtle music score. The green-and-white Game Boy monitor just doesn't do this game justice. With selectable colors, this game is made more for the Super Game Boy than the monochrome Game Boy. Take a hit after that, and it's all over. If you get hit, you revert to your alter ego. You can also use barrels to dispense with bees and other enemies that you can't defeat with jumping attacks. Instead, you toggle between the two by pressing Select. You don't play with both characters on the screen at the same time, however. The rules are simple: Start as Donkey Kong, but if you find a barrel labeled "DK," you can break it open and find Diddy Kong. Regardless of reductions in scope and cutbacks on technical aspects, DKL has excellent character sprites that really come alive, huge levels, and a tough challenge that means you won't complete this cart in one sitting. If you're still going ape over Donkey Kong Country, you'll be surprised by Donkey Kong Land, the Game Boy version of the 16-bit hit.
