Donkey Kong Jungle Beat
Donkey Kong Jungle Beat is a platformer for the GameCube starring Donkey Kong. It is controlled with the DK Bongos. During the game's boss battles, the bongos control Donkey Kong's fists.
This was one of the first of the non - arcade Donkey Kong games not to be made by Rareware. After they left Nintendo and joined Microsoft rare lost control of the donkey kong series due to the fact that it was trademarked by Nintendo.
Donkey Kong Jungle Beat was diferent than the Donkey Kong Country series in that none of the old characters or drones made an apearence. Also the personality of Donkey Kong was altered, as he was made from a generally peacefull ape into a much more non-peace loving anthromorphic animal.
Controls
The controls of this game were different from most 2-D platformers. Hitting the left bongo repeatedly will send send Donkey Kong running to the left, and hitting the right will send him right. To jump straight into the air, the player must hit both bongos at once. To jump diagonly, the player must hit the bongo in the direction he wants to jump, while using the other bongo to run.When swimming, swinging, and riding Animal Buddys, the controls are made much more simple.
