'''Gloomy Galleon''' is the fourth level in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. It is a water-based cove area featuring [[King K. Rool]]'s sunken galleon. The stage has a mild pirate theme with both underwater and cave-like areas.<ref>{{cite|author=Bihldorff, Nate, Jason Leung, and Drew Williams|title=''Donkey Kong 64'' Player's Guide|page=66|date=1999|publisher=Nintendo of America|language=en-us|quote='''THE PIRATE'S HOARD:''' Transform into Enguarde and leap out of the water and through the star three times to open the way into the pirate's treasure room.}}</ref> Players have to use [[Lanky Kong]] to defeat the area's boss, which is [[Puftoss]]. Gloomy Galleon is an eerie cove that is full of caverns, which hold many secret treasures and shipwrecks from earlier ''Donkey Kong'' games. Outside these caves are water areas towered over by cliffs. There is a lighthouse area that has a switch in order to raise or lower the area's water level. This area also has a floating ship that appears to be owned by K. Rool. There is also a hidden [[Mermaid]] Village beneath the waters and many [[treasure chest]]s. The other water area is a cove with many sunken objects. This holds the sunken [[Gangplank Galleon]], which is ripped in half and holds secret [[Golden Banana]]s. There is also a hidden mechanical fish here and a cove where the player must race the [[Seal]]. Gloomy Galleon has an [[animal crate]] that [[Lanky Kong]] can enter to transform into [[Enguarde]].

==Geography==
===Starting Cave===
This is the cave between the two lakes and also the entrance to the level. There is a flooded cave off to the side primarily for Chunky, which contains a cannonball which Chunky has to carry to a cannon. A bit further in is a 4-way split path; coming from the entrance the path left leads to the Sunken Ship Lake, the path right to the Lighthouse Lake and the center path to the Central Cave Area. The path towards the Sunken Ship Lake contains two switches, one for Tiny, the other for Lanky which is also guarded by a [[Kosha]].

====Central Cave Area====
[[File:DK64_Gloomy_Galleon_Central_Cave_Area.png|thumb]]
A bigger area within the Starting Cave. It includes two broken and stranded ships, both have a cannon in front of them to land on top of them. At the entrance to the room is a Bananaporter Pad 1, with the Pad 2 right next to it on a metal box. The broken ship near the two Pads can be walked through to reach an off to the side room with three treasure chests for Chunky to break open. Above said ship are a couple vines that can be used to swing to a higher-up area with a bunch of planks, Bananaporter Pad 3 and Tiny's Kasplat can be found up here. The other stranded ship further back has the Battle Pad inside it and Cranky's Lab at the top of it.

===Sunken Ship Lake===
[[File:DK64_Gloomy_Galleon_Sunken_Ship_Lake.png|thumb|left]]
This is one of the two lakes of this level. It has a big sunken ship in the center of the lake with 4 numbered gates at the sides and another with a Enguarde Box next to it at the top. There are 3 distinct smaller areas off to the side, plus the Treasure Cave that can be reached through a tunnel. One of the smaller areas features another sunken ship, however a smaller one that sunk vertically and is half buried in the ground, it features two gates. Near the half buried ship there's a floating wooden plank on the water surface with the Bananaporter Pad 2. More floating planks can be found in the area at the other side of the lake, this time with the Pad 5 and Funky's Store. Underwater is a sunken and mostly buried submarine. Right next to it, closer to the surface is a cactus with 4 different Music Pads on each of the 4 branches. The area next to this featured the Bananaporter Pad 4 and Candy's Music Shop on floating planks with a gate at the bottom of the lake, a mechanical fish will swim out of the gate when Diddy activates his Music Pad in the Lighthouse Lake.

====Treasure Cave====
Can be accessed from the center of the Sunken Ship Lake through a tunnel with a green-ish color. Right before the Treasure Cave is a gate with Enguardes face on it that will only dissappear if Enguarde jumps through the DK Stars above the Sunken Ship Lake 3 times. The cave features 2 big pile of coins on the sides that have to be climbed with two of the Kongs. If Diddy climbes his pile of coins and gets the Golden Banana at the top of it a Bananaporter Pad 4 will spawn to allow for Donkey to defeat the Kasplat on it. Between the two piles is a big treasure chest that can be entered with Tiny in Mini-Monkey form, inside it are five submerged piles of coins with Oyster's on it guarding the [[Pearl]]s that the [[Mermaid]] requested in the Lighthouse Lake.

===Lighthouse Lake===
[[File:DK64_Gloomy_Galleon_Lighthouse_Lake.png|thumb]]
The other lake of the level, this one is round, has a big lighthouse in the center and a gigantic door spanning the entire height of the level. Below the lighthouse is a deep but slim pillar holding up the lighthouse and a small island around it, on said pillar are two switches on opposite sides, one with a green arrow pointing upwards, the other red and pointing downwards; they raise and lower the water respectively. On the small island surrounding the lighthouse are two Bananaporter Pads, 1 and 5. The lighthouse itself can be entered with Donkey and is only a single tall room that can be climbed, at the top of it is a lever that activates the lighthouse. Only if the lighthouse is activated will a big ship with K Rool's face on its sails float around the lighthouse, it can be jumped on and entered with Chunky. Above the surface of the water is a cage containing the [[Seal]], that can be opened by Donkey. On the surface of the lake are two alcoves, one of which contains Diddy's Kasplat, the other contains Snide's H.Q. and the Bananaporter Pad 3. On the seabed is a giant shell that can be entered with Tiny, inside is a Mermaid asking for the 5 missing pearls that can be found in the Treasure Cave. There are 5 different treasure chests scattered throughout the lake underwater, an Enguarde Box is found on the highest seabed.

}}
*Inside the sunken ship, many pictures of Kaptain K. Rool are found. Also in [[Lanky Kong]]'s shipwreck room, the carpet has the same logo of the [[Kremling Krew]] emblem. A book on the desk of this area says "Captain K. Rool's Log Book," ignoring the misspelling in the word "Kaptain."
*Although the bow and midsegment of the Gangplank Galleon are clearly visible, the stern, however, is nowhere to be found. It is possible that the floating and sunken pieces of the shipwreck were once the stern.
*The level's theme is a reworking of what was originally going to be Captain Blackeye's theme in ''Project Dream'', the game that eventually became ''Banjo-Kazooie''. An alternate version closely resembling the version heard in ''Donkey Kong 64'' is titled "High Tides, Swift Sails."<ref>{{cite|url=www.tumblr.com/dkvine/143089054746/high-tides-swift-sails-grant-kirkhope-a-track|title=High Tides, Swift Sails - Grant Kirkhope|date=April 19, 2016|author=DK Vine|publisher=Tumblr|accessdate=February 17, 2023|language=en}}</ref>
*This is the only level to have Tag Barrels underwater and the Tag Barrel's screen to be overlayed with blue and the music and sound stifled due to being underwater.
*While inside the floating ship in the lighthouse area, one of the themes from [[Jungle Japes]] plays, despite the ship being located in Gloomy Galleon.
*One of Chunky's [[Banana Balloon]]s is glitched in this level. The Balloon is meant to appear above the shipwreck that only Tiny and Lanky can enter and be shot from the nearby #2 Bananaporter; however, a draw distance bug does not load the balloon into the game until Chunky swims to where the shipwreck is, then swims back.
*There are 3 [[Banana Coin]]s for Chunky that were meant to be placed in an underwater treasure chest that can be broken by Enguarde, but they spawn below the floor of the level. These coins can be collected by performing the [[List of Donkey Kong 64 glitches#Swim through vertical walls glitch|swim through vertical walls glitch]] to go out of bounds.<ref>{{cite|author=ScykohPlays|language=en|date=March 2, 2021|url=youtu.be/KftTkHNAbow?si=lHDVHV6wtx-t_pAw&t=286|timestamp=4:46|title=''Donkey Kong 64'' - Out of Bounds {{!}} PART 15|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=April 3, 2024}}</ref>
*There is an invisible 101st banana for Tiny that can be found in the sunken ship.
