In ''Donkey Kong Country'', Kritters are one of the most common enemies, along with [[Gnawty|Gnawties]] and [[Zinger]]s. Kritters are one of the weakest enemies, and [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] can defeat them with any attack, including throwing a [[barrel]], jumping, rolling, or Donkey Kong's [[Hand Slap]]. Aside from the standard green type, Kritters have a few color variations, each with their own distinct pattern of moving and jumping: Green Kritters simply walk in a single direction toward the [[Kong]]s; brown Kritters repeatedly jump up in a single spot; blue Kritters jump while moving forward; yellow Kritters jump back and forth in a set path; and gray Kritters hop a few times before performing a high jump, all while moving forward. | In ''Donkey Kong Country'', Kritters are one of the most common enemies, along with [[Gnawty|Gnawties]] and [[Zinger]]s.

In pre-production, Kritters were intended to be small enemies; their role in the final was seemingly combined with the unused "Klanger," simply described as a "Green Kremling."<ref>{{ | In pre-production, Kritters were intended to be small enemies; their role in the final was seemingly combined with the unused "Klanger," simply described as a "Green Kremling."<ref>{{file link|DKC general naming.jpg|Early DKC general naming sheet}}</ref> | ||
Green Kritters were changed to purple in the [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]], but their [[photograph]] in the [[Scrapbook (Donkey Kong Country series)|Scrapbook]] uses their original green artwork. | Green Kritters were changed to purple in the [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]], but their [[photograph]] in the [[Scrapbook (Donkey Kong Country series)|Scrapbook]] uses their original green artwork. | ||

Two different canceled games named ''Diddy Kong Pilot'', [[Diddy Kong Pilot (2001)|one from 2001]] and [[Diddy Kong Pilot (2003)|one from 2003]], would have included a Kritter with a leather jacket as a playable character. Although this character is simply called "Kritter" in the 2003 build, the model bears a strong resemblance to [[Krunch]] from ''[[Diddy Kong Racing]]''; in the 2001 build, the internal name for the character when highlighted on the selection screen is Krunch's early name "[[Krash]]",<ref>{{cite|author=Mattrizzle|date=January 16, 2013|url=www.dkc-atlas.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=1329#p32980|title=Diddy Kong Pilot: 2001 Alpha has been Released!!!|publisher=DKC Atlas|accessdate=June 2, 2024}}</ref> while the {{ | Two different canceled games named ''Diddy Kong Pilot'', [[Diddy Kong Pilot (2001)|one from 2001]] and [[Diddy Kong Pilot (2003)|one from 2003]], would have included a Kritter with a leather jacket as a playable character.

Kritter has a {{wp|Southern American English}} accent in the 2003 iteration. When it became ''[[jiggywikki:Banjo-Pilot|Banjo-Pilot]]'', Kritter was replaced with [[jiggywikki:Jolly Roger|Jolly Roger]], with the two characters sharing similar stats. | ||
