*Kudgel's name is derived from "cudgel", meaning "club" or "to beat with a club".
* Kudgel's SNES sprites show him wearing yellow pants instead of the red ones depicted in his official art. This was corrected in the GBA remake.
*Kudgel oddly doesn't make an appearance in the [[Game Boy]] title ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]'', an almost direct remake of ''Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest''. This might be, due to the Game Boy limitations.
