'''Tree Top Town''' is the twelfth level of the [[Super Nintendo Entertainment System]] game, ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]''. It is also the second level of the [[Vine Valley (Donkey Kong Country)|Vine Valley]] area on [[Donkey Kong Island]].
'''Tree Top Town''' is the twelfth level of ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' and the second level of the [[Vine Valley (world)|Vine Valley]] area. Tree Top Town takes place at a treetop village, where houses and walkways are made of wood and are tacked or bound with ropes to the enormous tree trunks. [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] have to traverse the treetops by walking across bridges, jumping between treetops, and blast from several [[Barrel Cannon]]s to cross large abysses. Blue [[Kritter]]s and [[Gnawty|Gnawties]] are the main enemies encountered in the level. In the [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]], more offscreen Barrel Cannons were added to catch the Kongs if they blast off the path.  


This level is set in a village built in the treetops above the forests of Vine Valley. In Tree Top Town, houses and walkways are made of wood and are tacked or bound with ropes to the enormous tree trunks. The town seems to be quite widespread, as the background shows several huts (which do not appear in the [[Game Boy Color]] remake), and even tall wooden ladders. The main obstacles in this level are the numerous [[Barrel Cannon]]s that are scattered all over the area. The [[Kong]]s must be careful when using these barrels, as there are many abysses under them that they can fall into if they aim to a barrel incorrectly. There are also [[Gnawty|Gnawties]], [[Necky|Neckies]], and blue [[Kritter]]s to make their job harder.

The Kongs begin the level by exiting a small hut and walking towards a bridge that a Gnawty walks along. As the Kongs walk through the area, a Necky flies over their heads. The primates soon travel to a Barrel Cannon placed on the edge of a platform composed of several planks. It can shoot them over a small abyss and optionally to a [[DK Barrel]]. On the other side of the abyss, the Kongs can find another wooden area that wraps around a tree trunk. A Gnawty drops onto it as they approach a large gap full of Barrel Cannons. Each of these Barrel Cannons, with the exception of the stationary [[Blast Barrel]] at the end the pit, move in a vertical path when entered, they the Kongs can shoot through each of them to cross the abyss, which is followed by another wooden platform that is structured around a tree trunk.

The Kongs must blast among the many barrels in order to cross the abyss, which is followed by two sets of wooden platforms that surrounded tree trunks. The [[KONG Letters|letter K]] hovers over a small pit between them, and a few Gnawties also walk along the second platform. They can discover another wide abyss near here with numerous Barrel Cannons in it. Aside from the Blast Barrel at the beginning of the pit, all of the Barrel Cannons move in diagonal paths, aiming the heroes one barrel to the next. Once they make their way over the abyss, they slam into the level's [[Star Barrel|Continue Barrel]].

A raised set of planks follow the Continue Barrel, and they support a lone [[barrel]]. After crossing a small pit ahead of here, the Kongs reach a pair of platforms that circle tree trunks. A Blast Barrel is placed between them, and if they enter it, they are blasted up into a Barrel Cannon that moves back ad forth in a horizontal path. The letter O is to the right of this barrel. A bridge holding a DK Barrel connects the platform to the right of the Blast Barrel to another platform composed of planks. The primates can find a wide abyss after it that consists of four Blast Barrels. They must jump in the first of the barrels with good timing, as it immediately blasts them to the next barrel, which moves in a vertical path up and down. The primates can land in the abyss if they do not shoot at it when it is positioned in front of the first Blast Barrel.

==Bonus Levels==
{{multiframe|[[File:Tree Top Town 9.png|200px]] [[File:Tree Top Town N.png|200px]]|size=420|The first and second Bonus Levels, respectively}}
Tree Top Town has two Bonus Levels, listed by their type in the Game Boy Advance version:


===Bonus Levels===
*'''''Spell it Out!''''': At the very start, the Kongs encounter a Necky, who flies to the left at them. They must wait for Necky to fly near the [[Bonus Barrel]] to the upper-left of the start, and then jump on Necky to bounce up into it. In the [[Bonus Level]], the Kongs must jump at four different barrels which repeatedly switch between each KONG Letter and a banana. From left to right, the Kongs must jump at each barrel to stop them and spell out "KONG". By doing so correctly, the Kongs are awarded with a [[Red Balloon|Life Balloon]]. The Kongs exit from the Bonus Level after winning or losing the challenge.
*At the very beginning of the level, the Kongs should see a barrel in the top-left corner of the screen. To reach it, they must wait for the Necky nearby to fly under it. At this time, they need to jump on the foe and bounce into the barrel. It shoots them to the Bonus Level, where they have to hit four different barrels in order to spell out the word, "Kong," in order. If all of the letters are stopped on the barrels correctly, they are awarded with an Animal Token of Expresso. If not, they are forced out of the bonus without a prize. When they done collecting their prize if they are victorious, they can exit the Bonus Stage.
*'''''Collect the Bananas!''''': At the second abyss after the Continue Barrel, the Kongs must shoot out of the Barrel Cannon as it moves downward. By doing so, they are caught into a  In the last barrel over this abyss, the Kongs should shoot out of the barrel as it moves downwards below the bridge. If timed right, the Kongs blast into the Bonus Barrel. In the Bonus Level, the Kongs must blast from a horizontally moving Barrel Cannon which repeatedly tilts. They can blast from the Barrel Cannon to collect many bananas in midair and the letter N at the top. Once they reach the top, the Kongs quickly descend. They can exit the Bonus Level by missing the Barrel Cannon as they fall.
*To find the second Bonus Level, the heroes must get into the barrels over the second abyss past the Star Barrel. In the last barrel over this abyss, the Kongs should shoot out of the barrel as it moves downwards. If done at the right time, they land in the Bonus Level. There, they have to use another barrel that constantly tilts to shoot upwards into an area filled with many bananas. After flying to the top of the area, they quickly descend. If they miss the barrel upon falling, the bonus ends.


===Warp Barrel===
==Warp Barrel==
*At the beginning of the level, the Kongs should race towards the first Necky and bounce on it to reach an area above a nearby Barrel Cannon. They can find a [[Warp Barrel]] hidden high in the air. The barrel sends them in the area immediately after the letter G. This warp only appears in the Super Nintendo Entertainment System version of the game.

Tree Top Town is the twelfth level of Donkey Kong Country and the second level of the Vine Valley area. Tree Top Town takes place at a treetop village, where houses and walkways are made of wood and are tacked or bound with ropes to the enormous tree trunks. Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong have to traverse the treetops by walking across bridges, jumping between treetops, and blast from several Barrel Cannons to cross large abysses. Blue Kritters and Gnawties are the main enemies encountered in the level. In the Game Boy Advance version, more offscreen Barrel Cannons were added to catch the Kongs if they blast off the path.

Once they make their way over the abyss, they slam into the level's Continue Barrel.

A raised set of planks follow the Continue Barrel, and they support a lone barrel. After crossing a small pit ahead of here, the Kongs reach a pair of platforms that circle tree trunks. A Blast Barrel is placed between them, and if they enter it, they are blasted up into a Barrel Cannon that moves back ad forth in a horizontal path. The letter O is to the right of this barrel. A bridge holding a DK Barrel connects the platform to the right of the Blast Barrel to another platform composed of planks. The primates can find a wide abyss after it that consists of four Blast Barrels.

Bonus Levels[edit]

The first Bonus Area of Tree Top Town The N in the second Bonus Level of Tree Top Town from Donkey Kong Country
The first and second Bonus Levels, respectively

Tree Top Town has two Bonus Levels, listed by their type in the Game Boy Advance version:

  • Spell it Out!: At the very start, the Kongs encounter a Necky, who flies to the left at them. They must wait for Necky to fly near the Bonus Barrel to the upper-left of the start, and then jump on Necky to bounce up into it. In the Bonus Level, the Kongs must jump at four different barrels which repeatedly switch between each KONG Letter and a banana. From left to right, the Kongs must jump at each barrel to stop them and spell out "KONG". By doing so correctly, the Kongs are awarded with a Life Balloon. The Kongs exit from the Bonus Level after winning or losing the challenge.
  • Collect the Bananas!: At the second abyss after the Continue Barrel, the Kongs must shoot out of the Barrel Cannon as it moves downward. By doing so, they are caught into a In the last barrel over this abyss, the Kongs should shoot out of the barrel as it moves downwards below the bridge. If timed right, the Kongs blast into the Bonus Barrel. In the Bonus Level, the Kongs must blast from a horizontally moving Barrel Cannon which repeatedly tilts. They can blast from the Barrel Cannon to collect many bananas in midair and the letter N at the top. Once they reach the top, the Kongs quickly descend. They can exit the Bonus Level by missing the Barrel Cannon as they fall.

Warp Barrel[edit]

At the beginning of the level, the Kongs should race towards the first Necky and bounce on it to reach an area above a nearby Barrel Cannon. They can find a Warp Barrel hidden high in the air. The barrel sends them in the area immediately after the letter G. This Warp Barrel does not appear in the remakes.

Other appearances[edit]

In the Donkey Kong Country animated series, Cranky's Cabin is designed in a manner resembling the huts seen in this level.

Notably, artwork of an area called Tree Top Village is available for the Bonus Gallery of Donkey Kong Country Returns. However, this location is unplayable in the actual game and is considered a mere cameo.

Donkey Kong Country: Rumble in the Jungle[edit]

In the 1995 novel Donkey Kong Country: Rumble in the Jungle, Tree Top Town is at the edge of Donkey Kong Island's jungle. It used to be an "active ape community" until it became overrun by Kremlings. The Kongs pass through Tree Top Town while making their way on foot to Big Ape City, in order to rescue Funky Kong. Donkey Kong tells the other Kongs to "move quickly and quietly" underneath the platforms, as the wooden tree huts that house the Kremlings were above. However, Cranky Kong insists to take the lead, and he trips on a low vine while charging ahead. This triggers a loud alarm, alerting all Kremlings in Tree Top Town.

Surrounded by Kremlings, Donkey Kong swings from an overhead vine to defeat several of them, as well as using a hand slap. Diddy Kong uses a cartwheel, and Cranky Kong utilizes his cane to strike attacks. It is shown that the Kremlings operate powerful barrel cannons high up in the trees, which fire "dangerous barrels". Donkey Kong uses a tree branch to launch several TNT Drums, destroying the cannons.
