'''Crosshair Cranky''' is a mini-game mode exclusive to the [[Game Boy Color]] version of ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]''. As its name suggests, Crosshair Cranky is operated by [[Cranky Kong]], though he does not appear in the mode.

Crosshair Cranky has six off-shore stages, each with its objective. The mini-game is inspired by ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', as the [[Coconut Gun]] (originating from said game) is the main feature of the mini-game, and a few mini-games are based on a Bonus Stage from ''Donkey Kong 64''. The objective in almost every stage is to fire coconuts at Kritters (but in the stage, Buddies Beware, he has to fire coconuts to help [[Animal Buddy|Animal Buddies]] cross pathways, or fire at cannons in Galleon Gunner).

'''Crosshair Cranky''' is a mini-game mode exclusively appearing in the [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Color)|Game Boy Color version]] of ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]''. [[Cranky Kong|Cranky]] is named in the title, though he does not appear anywhere within the mode.
Every stage has a yellow-background coconut icon in the center, divided into four sections. The sections are organized from left to right (i.e. the first section is at the top-left corner and the last section is at the bottom-right). A section turns entirely brown for each coconut that Donkey Kong fires (half the icon turns brown for each fired coconut in Buddies Beware). Donkey Kong cannot fire any coconuts after he fires four (or two in Buddies Beware). The player must press {{button|gbc|b}} to reload the supply (and therefore reset the coconut icon) to allow Donkey Kong to fire more coconuts. The supply cannot be reloaded until every coconut is used.
==Gameplay==
 
Donkey Kong starts from the position of [[Kongo Jungle]] on the [[Donkey Kong Island]] map, except it is inaccessible. The only other places are along near the shore of [[Donkey Kong Island]], and none of them can be accessed in the main game at all. The mode has a two-player equivalent where the second player is represented by a [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] with a blue cap, both of whom compete to complete every stage first.<ref>{{cite|url=youtu.be/KJhajd_1Qfo?feature=shared&t=21|timestamp=0:21|language=en|title=Donkey Kong Country (2000, GBC) - ENABLE THE LINK CABLE - 2 exclusive multiplayer mini games|date=December 2, 2023|author=Zack “SquallSnake” G|publisher=YouTube|accessdate=November 4, 2024}}</ref> Every stage involves shooting [[coconut]]s at targets, which are usually [[Kremling]]s. Each time a coconut is fired, a section of the coconut icon in the center is filled, going in clockwise order from top left to bottom right. Once four coconuts have been used, the player has to reload manually before they can shoot more. A mood icon of Donkey Kong is at the bottom left, showing him as happy by default, though his mood worsens each time a mistake is made, such as failing to hit a Kremling. If Donkey Kong makes four mistakes, he loses. Every stage has a counter set to a certain number, which decreases gradually if the objective is met, usually being when a Kremling is shot. When the counter reaches zero, Donkey Kong wins, and the game progress is saved.
A mood icon of Donkey Kong is displayed in the bottom-left corner. By default, Donkey Kong's icon is happy. His mood will gradually worsen for each mistake that he makes. An example of a mistake is failing to fire at a Kritter on time. If he makes four mistakes, Donkey Kong loses at the stage. Every stage has a counter set to a specific number, which gradually decreases (usually by numbers of one) if Donkey Kong meets an objective (for example, by shooting a Kritter). When the counter successfully decreases down to zero, Donkey Kong wins at the stage.
 
Crosshair Cranky is also featured in multiplayer mode. The first player is Donkey Kong and the second player is [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] with a blue cap. Both players must compete to complete every stage first.
 
===Controls===

== Stages ==
The stages are as follows:
Crosshair Cranky has six stages, all of which take place on small islands on the shore of [[Donkey Kong Island]] (except for the final stage Galleon Gunner). Every stage is inaccessible in the main Adventure mode. However, Galleon Gunner can be considered as an exception because it takes place just outside [[Gangplank Galleon]].
{|class="wikitable dk"
 
Donkey Kong starts on the world map on "Crosshair Cranky" (which is actually [[Kongo Jungle]]); the area has Donkey Kong's head icon on it, but it cannot be accessed--it only functions as the world map's starting point. Just like in Adventure mode, the mini-game saves the progress of the stages that were completed by Donkey Kong.

|In this stage, big [[Gnawty]]s (who resemble [[Very Gnawty]] and [[Really Gnawty]]) chase [[Expresso the Ostrich|Expresso]]s, [[Rambi the Rhinoceros|Rambi]]s, and [[Winky the Frog|Winky]]s across three different pathways, each with two holes in them. Donkey Kong must help 25 [[Animal Buddy|Animal Buddies]] safely cross each pathway by firing coconuts at the holes, to prevent them from falling down. Each fired coconut will darken a half of the counter, which no longer has lines to divide it into four sections. The coconuts only temporarily patch the holes and disappear after an Animal Buddy crosses over it. The counter, originally set at 25, decreases by a number after an Animal Buddy exits from the right side of the third and bottommost path. The stage's difficulty increases halfway through (when the counter is down at 12), as more Animal Buddies start to spawn from the paths and even run faster. Donkey Kong loses if too many of the Animal Buddies fall down the holes. This mini-game is similar to the Bonus Stage [[Peril Path Panic]] from ''Donkey Kong 64'', but it can also be compared to the Game & Watch game ''[[Manhole (Game & Watch)|Manhole]]''.

|This stage's objective is similar to "Barrel o' Kremlings" except that Donkey Kong has to fire at specific Kritters in the barrels, known as the "wanted" ones. After Donkey Kong accesses the stage, the lights go out and a Kritter (either red, blue, green, purple, or black) pokes its head out a barrel; this Kritter is the "wanted" one, as indicated by its color. The Kritter then retreats in its barrel, the lights turn on, and many Kritters start to pop their heads out of barrels. Donkey Kong must only shoot a coconut at the "wanted" Kritter. The cycle repeats, and the number of wanted Kritters increases (thus increasing the difficulty) as the stage progresses. Donkey Kong loses if he hits the incorrect Kritter four times or misses too many of the wanted ones. The stage is set inside a cave and plays the "Cave Dweller Concert" theme.

Crosshair Cranky is a mini-game mode exclusively appearing in the Game Boy Color version of Donkey Kong Country. Cranky is named in the title, though he does not appear anywhere within the mode.

Gameplay[edit]

Donkey Kong starts from the position of Kongo Jungle on the Donkey Kong Island map, except it is inaccessible. The only other places are along near the shore of Donkey Kong Island, and none of them can be accessed in the main game at all. The mode has a two-player equivalent where the second player is represented by a Diddy with a blue cap, both of whom compete to complete every stage first.[1] Every stage involves shooting coconuts at targets, which are usually Kremlings. Each time a coconut is fired, a section of the coconut icon in the center is filled, going in clockwise order from top left to bottom right. Once four coconuts have been used, the player has to reload manually before they can shoot more. A mood icon of Donkey Kong is at the bottom left, showing him as happy by default, though his mood worsens each time a mistake is made, such as failing to hit a Kremling. If Donkey Kong makes four mistakes, he loses. Every stage has a counter set to a certain number, which decreases gradually if the objective is met, usually being when a Kremling is shot. When the counter reaches zero, Donkey Kong wins, and the game progress is saved.

The stages are as follows:

Name Summary
DKC GBC Kremlings and Kongs.png
Kremlings and Kongs 		The basic goal is to fire coconuts at any Kremlings but not the Kongs.[2] The stage is set in a temple, so it plays the "Voices of the Temple" theme. Fifty Kremlings have to be shot at to stop them from taking the Bananas,[3] while avoiding to shoot Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong as they also jump on the Bananas. If Donkey Kong misses too many Kremlings or hits too many Kongs, he loses.
Crosshair Cranky Barrel O' Kremlings
Barrel o' Kremlings 		The object is to hit Kremlings, though missing too many results in a loss.[4] The counter starts at 100,[5] decreasing by one, two, and five units by hitting green, blue, and red Kremlings, respectively. This stage is heavily based on Kremling Kosh! from Donkey Kong 64. The untitled forest theme plays.
DKC GBC Kremling Krackdown.png
Kremling Krackdown 		Kremlings have to be hit again to stop them from stealing the Banana Bunches.[6] There are 70 Kremlings to shoot,[7] and since no Kongs appear, the stage is simpler than Kremlings and Kongs. The stage takes place in a jungle environment, so "DK Island Swing" plays in the background.
DKC GBC Buddies Beware.png
Buddies Beware 		The player has to plug holes with coconuts to help buddies get across safely.[8] There are twenty-five buddies (consisting of Expressos, Rambis, and Winkys) to help cross two holes over each of the three pathways,[9] going from top to bottom. The buddies are always chased by big Gnawtys, which have no gameplay purpose. If too many buddies fall into the holes, the player loses. Only two coconuts can be used before the player has to reload, unlike other stages. A coconut patches a hole only up until the buddy crosses it. The stage is comparable to Peril Path Panic! from Donkey Kong 64, though it takes place in a jungle area and plays DK Island Swing like the previous stage.
DKC GBC Wanted.png
Wanted 		The player has to shoot at the requested Kremling specifically.[10] The stage is set up similarly to Barrel o' Kremlings, mainly because the Kremlings are also in barrels, and the counter starts at 70.[11] The stage begins with the area darkening and either a red, a blue, or a green Kremling peeking out of a barrel; this is the Kremling that has to be fired at amongst the others that also appear from the barrels when the area brightens. There are purple and gray Kremlings, though neither is programmed to ever be one of the targets.[citation needed] Later on, a few Kremlings are wanted at once, increasing the difficulty. If the player shoots an incorrect Kremling four times or misses the targets too much, they lose. The stage takes place in a dark area and plays the "Cave Dweller Concert" theme.
DKC GBC Galleon Gunner.png
Galleon Gunner 		The only stage without an intro,[12] Galleon Gunner involves firing coconuts at the six cannons on the side of Gangplank Galleon, and it also has its namesake theme as the background music. King K. Rool can be seen on-board, controlling the cannons to come out and retract back into the ship. The counter is set to 36 and decreases by one each time the player hits a cannon out. After a cannon is shot, it goes back into the ship. Each cannon takes six hits to completely destroy. If the player takes four hits, they lose. Once every cannon is destroyed, the player wins, and an animation is shown of K. Rool jumping around the ship angrily.
