'''Tuff Tucks''' are common enemies appearing in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'' | '''Tuff Tucks''' are common [[Snowmad]] enemies appearing in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]''. They are penguin-like members of the [[Snowmad]]s that wear leather belts and wrists - the former displaying the Snowmad insignia - as well as broad orange helmets that protect their heads. The heads are actually smaller than the helmets, which always seem to comically obstruct the Tuff Tucks' sights; their helmets sport two small viking wings on each side and a row of white screws that goes along the helmets' greater circumference. Similar models are shared with other tough-type Snowmads from the game, like [[Tuff Fluff]]s and [[Walbrick]]s. Anatomically, Tuff Tucks are no different from generic Tucks, in that they are plump and feature hunched backs, as well as small and departed feet. | ||
Tuff Tucks walk slowly from side to side, and flip over their backs when [[stomp]]ed on, leaving them stunned for a period of time. Within the timelapse, the player can pick the foes up from the ground and toss them anywhere like a projectile, which results in the enemy's perish. As handy projectiles, they can either be thrown into other enemies to defeat them, or hurled into feeble walls to destory them and reveal secrets. While Tuff Tucks cannot be directly defeated by a stomp, any other attack method is meaningful against them. A [[Roll Attack]] or [[Kong Roll]], a separate projectile thrown, or [[Rambi the Rhino|Rambi's]] involving can put an end to any Tuff Tuck. | |||
According to [[Kensuke Tanabe]], director of ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' and producer of ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze'', several gameplay elements from the mentioned ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' title have been correspondingly implemented into the ''[[Donkey Kong Country (series)|Donkey Kong Country]]'' game. These include the ability to pick up and throw enemies, as well as use them against other enemies.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7b9FnSvEQxE Wii U Developer Direct - Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze @E3 2013], retrieved August 6, 2015</ref> As such, Tuff Tucks can be considered analogous to [[Shy Guy]]s from ''Super Mario Bros. 2''. | |||
