'''Frantic Factory''' is the third level of ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. It is a rogue toy manufacturing factory in which [[Chunky Kong]] is held captive. The [[Kong]]s can access the level's lobby after unlocking the second padlock of [[K. Lumsy]]'s cage. The level requires 15 [[Golden Banana]]s to enter, and the boss is [[Mad Jack]]. There is one room with a playable ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]'' arcade cabinet, and by completing it, the Kongs win the [[Nintendo Coin]].
==Areas==
===Lobby===
[[File:Frantic Factory lobby.png|thumb]]
The main entrance to Frantic Factory. It has a red rug with K. Rool's head, two tables with [[Bananaport Pad]]s #1 and #2 adjacent to one another, and an employee card punch-in station. Above it is a time clock which reads "Krem Co". Two Robokremlings patrol the entrance, guarding a blue switch that opens the path to the basement, where the Production Room and Storage room can be found. Bananaport Pad #1 leads to the Storage Room and Bananaport Pad #2 leads to the R&D room. Bananaport Pad #3 leads to a room with [[Snide's HQ]], which can be accessed from the Testing room.
 
===Production Room===
[[File:Frantic Factory production room.png|thumb|left]]
The largest room of Frantic Factory, located on the bottom floor. The Production Room can be climbed by the Kongs using the various moving components activated when DK pulls the lever in the storage room power shed. There are various paths on the way to the top, both 4 pads, Diddy and Donkey's Kasplats, and four golden bananas at the top in various areas, and the assembly line inside the main core contains one of Donkey Kong's golden bananas and one of Lanky's balloons.
{{br}}
 
===Storage Room===
[[File:Frantic Factory storage room.png|thumb]]
It is a floor beneath the Lobby. This is where [[Chunky Kong|Chunky]] is imprisoned at, and the room also has a power shack that controls the machinery in the Production Room (only accessible from the R&D). DK can shoot a coconut switch to enter the shed, where he can pull a lever to activate the production room. Both [[Candy's Music Shop]] and [[Cranky's Lab]] are on this floor. There is also a room behind a Chunky gate with a dirt pile, and a Barrel Cannon challenge that unlocks the ''Donkey Kong'' arcade game. The 1 pad is located here, which leads back to the lobby. A blue switch here will open the path leading to the Testing Department.
{{br}}
 
===Testing Department===
[[File:Frantic Factory testing department.png|thumb|left]]
|This room is located near the top of Frantic Factory: it is a very tall room with massive stacked toy blocks in the center. [[Diddy Kong|Diddy]] can Simian Spring on the blocks to find a Golden Banana on the top. At the top are windows, where the Moon can be seen from. [[Funky's Store]] is on this floor. There is a minigame where DK has to [[Simian Slam]] up to number sixteen in order, and a dart game for [[Tiny Kong|Tiny]]. Chunky's Kasplat is located here. Accessible from the Storage Room or pad 5, there is a room with the ''Donkey Kong'' arcade machine and an empty room behind a Chunky gate with the sole [[Stash Snatch!]] bonus barrel in the game.

==Areas==
===R&D===
*'''The Lobby''' - The main entrance to Frantic Factory, it has a K.Rool rug in the center and an employee card punch-in station. It leads to the Storage Room, the Testing Department, and [[Snide's HQ]] (if both #3 [[Bananaport Pad]]s are activated).
[[File:Frantic Factory R&D.png|thumb]]
*'''Storage Room''' - Initially, [[Chunky Kong]] is in a cage suspended from the ceiling. This room leads to the Production Room, [[Cranky's Lab]], a gated area accessible by Chunky, and the ''Donkey Kong'' arcade machine. The power shack is located here.
Located at the top of the factory, this is the research and development division appearing on the top level. It surrounds the higher part of the Testing area. It is a large area, with many rooms. Each Kong faces a challenge here: Donkey must go down to the power shack in the Storage Room to activate the production room. Lanky has to copy the burping Kremlings by Simian Slamming the appropriate notes on a six-key colored piano, Tiny has her first race with the [[Mini-Car]], Diddy does the number challenge round, and Chunky fights the Toy Monster mini-boss. Small pits with metal grates circle the area. The 2 pad is located here, which leads back to the lobby. Lanky's Kasplat is located here.
*'''Production Room''' - The largest area of the factory, the Production Room houses a large machine in its center and connects to R&D. Certain platforms and pipes connecting to the machine are only accessible by specific [[Kong]]s.
*'''Testing Department''' - This area connects to [[Funky's Store]]  features alphabet blocks that tower to the top of the room.
*'''R&D''' - An area at the top of the factory, it is a large room with sub-rooms accessible only by specific Kongs. It also has an entrance to the toy racetrack, where Tiny Kong competes with the [[Toy Racecar]].

<< List of levels >>

Frantic Factory is the third level of Donkey Kong 64. It is a rogue toy manufacturing factory in which Chunky Kong is held captive. The Kongs can access the level's lobby after unlocking the second padlock of K. Lumsy's cage. The level requires 15 Golden Bananas to enter, and the boss is Mad Jack. There is one room with a playable Donkey Kong arcade cabinet, and by completing it, the Kongs win the Nintendo Coin.

Areas[edit]

Lobby[edit]

Frantic Factory lobby.

The main entrance to Frantic Factory. It has a red rug with K. Rool's head, two tables with Bananaport Pads #1 and #2 adjacent to one another, and an employee card punch-in station. Above it is a time clock which reads "Krem Co". Two Robokremlings patrol the entrance, guarding a blue switch that opens the path to the basement, where the Production Room and Storage room can be found. Bananaport Pad #1 leads to the Storage Room and Bananaport Pad #2 leads to the R&D room. Bananaport Pad #3 leads to a room with Snide's HQ, which can be accessed from the Testing room.

Production Room[edit]

Frantic Factory production room.

The largest room of Frantic Factory, located on the bottom floor. The Production Room can be climbed by the Kongs using the various moving components activated when DK pulls the lever in the storage room power shed. There are various paths on the way to the top, both 4 pads, Diddy and Donkey's Kasplats, and four golden bananas at the top in various areas, and the assembly line inside the main core contains one of Donkey Kong's golden bananas and one of Lanky's balloons.

Storage Room[edit]

Frantic Factory storage room.

It is a floor beneath the Lobby. This is where Chunky is imprisoned at, and the room also has a power shack that controls the machinery in the Production Room (only accessible from the R&D). DK can shoot a coconut switch to enter the shed, where he can pull a lever to activate the production room. Both Candy's Music Shop and Cranky's Lab are on this floor. There is also a room behind a Chunky gate with a dirt pile, and a Barrel Cannon challenge that unlocks the Donkey Kong arcade game. The 1 pad is located here, which leads back to the lobby. A blue switch here will open the path leading to the Testing Department.

Testing Department[edit]

Frantic Factory testing department.

|This room is located near the top of Frantic Factory: it is a very tall room with massive stacked toy blocks in the center. Diddy can Simian Spring on the blocks to find a Golden Banana on the top. At the top are windows, where the Moon can be seen from. Funky's Store is on this floor. There is a minigame where DK has to Simian Slam up to number sixteen in order, and a dart game for Tiny. Chunky's Kasplat is located here. Accessible from the Storage Room or pad 5, there is a room with the Donkey Kong arcade machine and an empty room behind a Chunky gate with the sole Stash Snatch! bonus barrel in the game.

R&D[edit]

Frantic Factory R&D.

Located at the top of the factory, this is the research and development division appearing on the top level. It surrounds the higher part of the Testing area. It is a large area, with many rooms. Each Kong faces a challenge here: Donkey must go down to the power shack in the Storage Room to activate the production room. Lanky has to copy the burping Kremlings by Simian Slamming the appropriate notes on a six-key colored piano, Tiny has her first race with the Mini-Car, Diddy does the number challenge round, and Chunky fights the Toy Monster mini-boss. Small pits with metal grates circle the area. The 2 pad is located here, which leads back to the lobby. Lanky's Kasplat is located here.

Trivia[edit]

  • This is the only level that contains a Barrel Cannon course to not have a unique music track.
  • A clock in the room across from the starting point is labeled "Krem Co.", a name which also appears on the factory in Mekanos where KAOS is fought in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!
  • The door to this level's lobby has no collision programmed. Therefore, the Kongs can reach this level early by walking right through the door if they can find a way around the platform at the bottom of Crocodile Isle that K. Lumsy would raise at the same time as he opens the level and Gloomy Galleon.
