Rocket Rush (level)

Rocket Rush is a level in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble, and the fifth area of Krematoa.

The Kongs must navigate this cliffside level in a special rocket barrel. For the first half, they must descend to the bottom, conserving fuel so that they don't run out and crash. For the second half, they'll blast up the other side of the cliff, trying to reach the top without running out of fuel. In the GameBoy Advance remake, this level is harder, as there's no Star Barrel to be found. Buzzes are the only enemy here, and while they can be defeated with exhaust from the rocket, sometimes they should just be avoided. There are no bonus areas in this level.
