Seabed Shanty: Difference between revisions

'''Seabed Shanty''', named '''Coral''' in the [[Donkey Kong Land III#Time Attack Mode|Time Attack]] mode, is the second level of ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]'' and of the first world, [[Cape Codswallop]]. Following after [[Red Wharf]], Seabed Shanty is the first underwater level. It involves [[Dixie Kong]] and [[Kiddy Kong]] having to swim between the large coral reefs and avoiding enemies along the path. There are three [[Animal Barrel]]s of [[Enguarde]], each in a different part of the level. The [[Kong]]s can optionally transform into Enguarde, who can defeat the enemies in his path. The different paths of Seabed Shanty make it like a maze, but there are formations of [[banana]]s pointing the path to the end. Seabed Shanty is one of the twelve playable levels in Time Attack mode, where the [[Level Flag]] has to be reached within one minute and twenty seconds. Unlike other levels in Time Attack, a hidden shortcut is required to reach the [[Level Flag]] on time; toward the end, the Kongs have to swim up a long, slanted pathway of coral until going into the wall, where a [[Barrel Cannon]] will catch them and blast them through a few more and lastly to the Level Flag.

Near the end of the level, there is a trail of bananas pointing downward. Instead of taking the main path, the Kongs or Enguarde must instead swim upwards while moving around the coral reefs and enemies. Like other underwater levels, the [[DK Coin]] is obtained by itself, without defeating a [[Koin]], and it can found in the top corner of the coral reef.

Seabed Shanty has two [[Bonus room|Bonus Levels]], listed by type:

 

*'''Bash the Baddies!''': When the Kongs find the letter N, they must swim down to the left until they reach the bottom of the area. They must pass two Lurchins in a small area to reach the nearby [[Bonus Barrel]]. In the [[Bonus Level]], the Kongs transform into Enguarde from an Animal Barrel. Enguarde has thirty seconds to swim around and defeat three Kocos and two Bounty Basses. After defeating every enemy, the [[Bonus Coin (Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!)|Bonus Coin]] appears just below the starting point for Enguarde to collect.

*'''Collect the Stars!''': After the letter G, the Kongs or Enguarde must swim through a long, wide pathway between the corals. They can find a nearby group of bananas shaping a right arrow. Instead of going in the specified direction, the Kongs or Enguarde must ignore it and swim below into a small oval-shaped area with the second Bonus Barrel. In the Bonus Level, the Kongs or Enguarde have 30 seconds to swim through a large and collect 45 [[Star (Donkey Kong Country series)|star]]s. After the Kongs or Enguarde collect every star, the Bonus Coin appears at the bottom-center of the area.
