'''''Diddy Kong Pilot''''' is the name of a canceled [[Game Boy Advance]] racing title starring [[Diddy Kong]] and other ''[[Donkey Kong (franchise)|Donkey Kong]]'' characters racing against each other in [[plane]]s. This iteration was entirely redone from [[Diddy Kong Pilot (2001)|the original version]], before finally being redesigned into ''[[jiggywikki:Banjo-Pilot|Banjo-Pilot]]'' in 2005.

''Diddy Kong Pilot'' has a few modes, including the Grand Prix-type mode "Cups", a Time Trial mode which has no default scores, or even the Cranky Challenge mode, in which the player's goal is to obtain six coins placed around the course while beating Cranky in a race. The multiplayer option is crossed out and cannot be accessed. ''Diddy Kong Pilot'' features three different teams: Team Kong (consisting of [[Diddy Kong]], [[Dixie Kong]], [[Donkey Kong]], and [[Funky Kong|Funky]]), Team Krem (consisting of [[Kritter]], [[Klaptrap|Klap Trap]], [[Klump]], and [[King K. Rool|K. Rool]]), and Team Cranky, whose only member is [[Cranky Kong]]; he even appears in all four character slots. The player can unlock the [[Kremling]]s by finishing every cup, and Cranky if the player beats all the Cranky Challenges.

Aside from basic gameplay, few elements return directly from ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]''. [[T.T.]]'s voice is still used as the announcer despite him never visually appearing, and air-based [[Dash Panel|Zipper]]s reappear with the same design and functionality as before. Additionally, waiting to press the accelerator at the beginning of the race until the space between T.T.'s "Get ready" and "Go" results in a large speed boost.

The character selection is restricted to a specific difficulty in this build. Team Kong, Team Krem, and Team Cranky were replaced with Bottles GP, Grunty GP, and Endurance GP respectively in ''[[jiggywikki:Banjo-Pilot|Banjo-Pilot]]''.
The animation of characters flying across the screen on the title screen does not repeat in this build. In ''Banjo-Pilot'', either one or all characters take turns flying across the screen.

=====Race=====
=====Race=====
The player needs to complete each of the four cups by first completing the four races to win a trophy, which allows them to fight the boss. Team Kong and Team Cranky have the same cups and tracks, while the tracks in Team Krem's cups are reversed and have different names. In each race, the player must place between first and fourth to qualify for the next race. Three retries are allotted if they fail to qualify, represented by flag icons on the retry screen. More retries can be earned by collecting all the [[KONG Letters]] in a course. At the end of a cup, the player must place third or higher overall. Otherwise, the player is simply returned to the cup select screen.

There is a slightly different ending sequence where different racers form the number of the player's final placement with smoke trails: first place involves Diddy, Funky, and Kritter; second place involves Kritter and Klump; and third place involves Kritter, Funky, and Donkey Kong.

In Cranky Challenge, the player must race Cranky Kong while collecting six [[Silver Coin|coin]]s he has hidden around the tracks. There is a Cranky Challenge for each of the 16 Team Kong courses, and they can be performed by any character. This was later replaced with Jiggy Challenge in ''Banjo-Pilot''.

Despite having no relevance to sound, the Sound option redirects the player to an incomplete initials menu. After entering three characters, the rotating character input goes to the number 5. If the player presses {{button|GBA|A}} while the number is highlighted, they are sent back to the options menu.

If the player presses {{button|GBA|A}} while the number is highlighted, they are sent back to the options menu.


The Secret option unlocks everything in the game. The Multiplayer Weapons option shows a replay of the cutscene from the most recent defeat in a dogfight match - if none have been played yet, it shows both players as Klap Trap. Despite its title, the Ghost mode has no relevance to Time Trial ghosts, and instead displays the victory photo of a team. The team displayed in the photo corresponds to the current title screen. The last option is Clear Scores, which erases all of the game data.

==Teams and characters==
==Teams and characters==
There are three campaigns, each given to a team, which correspond to a difficulty level. For ''Banjo-Pilot'', these are translated to different Grand Prixes where any of the nine characters can be played as, likely in part due to that franchise's relative lack of iconic "villain" characters for a team. In addition to the three stages in this game, ''Banjo-Pilot'' has an additional bonus Grand Prix called the Jinjo GP, racing against seven differently colored [[jiggywikki:Jinjo|Jinjo]]s.

!colspan=13 style="background:saddlebrown;color:white" align=center|'''Team Kong - Beginner'''
This team consists of four of the Kongs: Diddy, Dixie, Funky, and Donkey. Every member of Team Kong is playable since the start. They are the main rivals of Team Krem. Prior to starting a cup, Cranky passive-aggressively encourages the player to win against the Kremlings.

After the player beats every cup and wins against all four Kongs in dogfights while playing as a Kremling, the title screen and the selection menus are reskinned from the original jungle theme to have a Kremling theme. The title screen reads "Kremling Pilot", and it takes place in a ruins area with lava. The options and selection menus are replaced with a scaly red and yellow background. Before starting a cup as a Kremling, Cranky talks in a disgruntled manner toward them.

===Team Krem - Intermediate===
After the player beats every cup and wins against all four Kremlings in dogfights while playing as Cranky, the ''Cranky Kong Pilot'' title screen is unlocked, which shows a cobwebbed, wooden logo of "Cranky Kong Pilot", and shows an ocean in the background scenery. From the title screen, [[Enguarde]] occasionally jumps out of the water. The options and selection menu show construction girders from the ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'' arcade game. At this point, the game is complete, and Cranky Kong informs the player that it seems like the "end of an era," possibly referencing Rare's time with the ''Donkey Kong'' franchise coming to an end.
Team Krem consists of four of the Kremlings: Kritter, Klap Trap, Klump, and K. Rool. The whole team is unlocked when the Kongs win against them in every cup and dogfight challenge. After the player beats every cup and wins against all four Kongs in dogfights while playing as a Kremling, the title screen and the selection menus are reskinned from the original jungle theme to have a Kremling theme. The title screen reads "Kremling Pilot", and it takes place in a ruins area with lava. The options and selection menus are replaced with a scaly red and yellow background. Before starting a cup as a Kremling, Cranky talks in a disgruntled manner toward them.

Chris Seavor provided the voice of all playable characters (Diddy, Dixie, Funky, Donkey, Klap Trap, Kritter, Klump, K. Rool, and Cranky), while Dean Smith served as the announcer, using the exact same voice as [[T.T.]] All of the voices were recorded in late 2002 and were placeholders, later being replaced by voices from ''Banjo-Kazooie'' in ''[[jiggywikki:Banjo-Pilot|Banjo-Pilot]]''.<ref>{{cite|url=centurionelmagooscuro.home.blog/2022/01/23/krotica-pishi-fast-diddy-kong-pilot-el-disrespect-de-la-actuacion-de-voz-del-diddy-kong-racing|title=Krótica Pishi Fast Diddy Kong Pilot, el disrespect de la actuación de voz del Diddy Kong Racing|language=es|publisher=Centurion el Mago Oscuro|accessdate=May 30, 2024|author=centurionelmagooscuro}}</ref>{{better source}} All of the music from this build was brought over to ''Banjo-Pilot'' with the addition of a few music tracks including the multiplayer theme, while "Monkey Madness!" was replaced by "Go Glowbo Go!" The original title theme eventually went unused in the final game, though it was changed to replace the monkey screech at the beginning with a [[jiggywikki:Glowbo|Glowbo]] noise and remains in the game's files.

==Glitches==
==Glitches==
[[File:DKP03 - Background Glitch.png|thumb|A glitch found from the background]]
''Diddy Kong Pilot'' went considerably far in development, although it remains somewhat unpolished. The most notable bug is the continuous loop of a loud sound effect, which occurs when the player goes through a zipper just before a Buzz crashes into them. Another bug always shows a "22" in the top-left corner of the Options menu. All of these glitches were fixed in ''[[jiggywikki:Banjo-Pilot|Banjo-Pilot]]''.

*"''Before we start, lets{{sic}} get a few things straight... you are racing for the pride of Team Kong, don't let us down... I did not suffer those interminable amounts of monotonous gameplay for you to blow it all now. Each cup is made up of four races... If you win that then you need to go head to head against a Kremling to show them who is boss.. Look out for the Target Balloons... shoot them and a secret boost will appear... fly through it and something special will happen.. Think you can handle it? I very much doubt it.''" - when beginning a cup race the first time

*In the Cups mode, the point spread matches those of the first three ''Mario Kart'' games; ''[[Mario Kart: Super Circuit]]'' was the most recent ''Mario Kart'' game as of the prototype build. In ''Banjo-Pilot'', the point spread was changed to match that of ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', which was released after the ''Diddy Kong Pilot'' prototype, and was the most recent ''Mario Kart'' game as of the final release.

*Unlike ''Banjo-Pilot'', it is not possible to have characters race or fight themselves with the exception of Cranky being able to race himself if he is chosen for the Cranky Challenges.
 
*Dialogue from Team Kong directed to Cranky if he is on Team Krem will treat him as if he is on Team Kong; for example, Funky Kong will say, "Come on, dude!" if Cranky attacks him.
