Button Barrel
A Button Barrel[1] is an object in Donkey Kong Land. These devices appear in Button Barrel Blast and some Bonus Levels only. In Button Barrel Blast, they are used to cross large gaps, similarly to the purpose of Barrel Cannons, but since they usually aim off-track, Donkey Kong or Diddy Kong usually have to use a corresponding button to change the direction of the Button Barrel, turning it slightly right or left when jumping on the button. After orienting the Button Barrel in the desired direction, the active Kong can jump into a Button Barrel to blast out in the direction it is facing. Button Barrels in Bonus Levels move around the area both quickly and automatically, and button is used in conjunction with the Button Barrel, although it is now used to shoot Kong Tokens out from it.
