'''Stampede Sprint''' is the thirty-sixth [[level]] in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]'' and the first level of [[Krematoa]]. In the [[Game Boy Advance]] remake, due to the inclusion of [[Pacifica]], Stampede Sprint is instead the forty-second level. Stampede Sprint is the last jungle level, and [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong|Kiddy]] play as [[Ellie]] for a majority of the level. An [[animal crate]] of [[Parry (character)|Parry]] is nearby, and Parry can help collecting items in midair such as [[banana]]s and [[bear coin]]s. [[Squawks]] and [[Squitter]] briefly appear in two respective [[Bonus Level]]s at the start. After blasting to the next platform, Ellie encounters three [[Sneek]]s, causing her to freak out and run across the level uncontrollably. During this, the player cannot control her movement except for her jumps. Due to her fast movements, Ellie has little time to anticipate incoming enemies or obstacles, but she still has to jump over pitfalls and enemies along the way. Buzzes are usually out of reach but still harm Parry upon contact. If Parry crosses the [[No Animal Sign]] at the end, it turns into a one-chance [[Bonus Barrel]]. Similarly, if Ellie passes her No Animal Sign, she transforms into a [[Iron Barrel|Steel Barrel]], which is needed to defeat [[Koin]] beyond the [[Level Flag]].


'''Stampede Sprint''' is a level in ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble]]'', and the first area of [[Krematoa]].
==Layout==
[[File:Stampede Sprint GBA red Buzz.png|thumb|left|Stampede Sprint in the Game Boy Advance version]]
The level starts with a [[DK Barrel]] hovering in midair. With both Kongs in play, [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] must take the lead and use her [[Helicopter Spin]] to glide across a large abyss. On the other side of the gap, they land into an [[Animal Barrel]], which turns them into Ellie the Elephant. After this, the elephant will need to hit a crate with Parry the Parallel Bird to free him. Once this is done, she jumps into a nearby barrel and blasts over a gap to the next part of the level. There, she meets a group of three Sneeks, who frighten her, causing the elephant to run. Ellie automatically runs through the level, passing some enemies, such as [[Bristle]]s, and crossing gaps. The elephant makes her way over many, many more obstacles at high speed, eventually meeting Kuff 'n' Klouts running towards her. After crossing several gaps, she heads under some Buzzes and over a few other enemies to find [[KONG Letter|the letter N]]. Farther on, Ellie travels over several more Kuff 'n' Klouts. After that, she runs through an area full of Bristles as she moves under Buzzes. Once she passes a few more Kuff 'n' Klouts, she finds the letter G and hop into another barrel. It blasts her to a safe area. If Parry is still safe, she turns into a Bonus Barrel. Farther on, the Kongs pass a [[No Animal Sign]] and turn back into the Kongs. The Kongs then reach the [[Level Flag]] and gain the first [[Cog (Donkey Kong Country 3)|cog]].


For most of this level, the Kongs will be playing as [[Ellie]]. Near Ellie's barrel is [[Parry]], who needs to be guided through the level. Shortly after becoming Ellie, she'll come across three [[Sneek]]s, who will send her running across the level out of control. If the player can guide Ellie, as well as Parry to the end of the level without dying, the ''No Parry Sign'' will turn the bird into a one-chance [[Bonus Barrel]]. However, this is anything but easy, and may take several tries to pull off successfully. [[Squawks]] and [[Squitter]] can found in bonus areas at the start, but they won't get far in the actual level. When Ellie reaches the ''No Ellie Sign'', she'll turn into a [[Steel Keg]] needed to defeat the [[Koin]] at the end. In addition to the Sneeks, enemies here include [[Bristles]], [[Buzz (species)|Buzzes]], [[Kuff 'n' Klout]] (in their debut) and [[Krimp]]s.

Stampede Sprint is the thirty-sixth level in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! and the first level of Krematoa.

Stampede Sprint is the last jungle level, and Dixie and Kiddy play as Ellie for a majority of the level. An animal crate of Parry is nearby, and Parry can help collecting items in midair such as bananas and bear coins. Squawks and Squitter briefly appear in two respective Bonus Levels at the start.
