Donkey Kong Coconut Crackers, also called Donkey Kong Puzzle Paint and Animal Crackers at some point in development,[1] is a canceled puzzle game for the Game Boy Advance and a Donkey Kong spinoff title. The game was developed by Rare Ltd., and was originally planned for a November 2001 release date.[2] It was likely postponed ahead of time due to the forthcoming acquisition from Microsoft in 2002.[3] However, the game was eventually converted into It's Mr. Pants, released in late 2004.
Some of the planned modes included various challenges around Donkey Kong Island, challenges from Cranky Kong, and a multiplayer mode.[2]
