6-7 TIPPY SHIPPY | Donkey Kong Country Returns | Walkthrough, No Commentary, Wii

Donkey Kong Country Returns

Description

Donkey Kong Country Returns is a vibrant and challenging platformer developed by Retro Studios for the Wii, where players help Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong reclaim their stolen bananas from the Tiki Tak Tribe on Donkey Kong Island. The game features colorful graphics, inventive level design, and a mix of classic and modern gameplay mechanics, including motion controls and cooperative multiplayer. Tippy Shippy, the seventh level in the Cliff world, immerses players in an airship graveyard environment, demanding precise timing, quick reflexes, and strategic platforming. This level is packed with tilting platforms, enemy turrets, and timed cannon sections, creating a hectic, shipwreck-themed challenge. One of the key TIPPY SHIPPY mechanics involves hidden cannons that periodically reveal platforms, which then fire cannonballs that destroy parts of the environment, transforming stable surfaces into tilting hazards. Players must carefully time their jumps and movements to avoid falling into the abyss or getting hit by enemy fire. The level's environment includes ship hulls, turfed ceilings, and background ship structures, enhancing its nautical atmosphere. Throughout the level, players encounter enemies such as Snaps, Pinchlies, Tiki Boings, Squidly, and Electrasquid turrets. These enemies are strategically placed, especially near tilting platforms and cannon fire sequences, requiring players to remain alert and adapt their tactics. Bonus rooms accessed via wooden platforms include barrel cannons, where players can collect bananas, Banana Coins, Extra Life Balloons, and reveal Puzzle Pieces—hidden collectibles necessary for full completion. The level challenges players to gather all four K-O-N-G letters, cleverly placed on moving and tilting platforms or behind destructible obstacles. Collecting all Puzzle Pieces—five in total—often involves exploring secret areas, using barrel cannons, or performing precise platform manipulations. Items such as hearts, DK barrels, and additional collectibles are scattered throughout, often behind breakable rocks or in hidden alcoves. The final segments of Tippy Shippy require swift navigation through collapsing platforms, enemy fire, and ship segments, culminating in a barrel cannon shot that propels players back into the level to grab the last Puzzle Piece and finish the stage. Achieving full completion, including all collectibles and medals, offers a satisfying sense of mastery and accomplishment. Overall, Tippy Shippy exemplifies the game's blend of challenge, exploration, and platforming finesse, making it a memorable and demanding part of Donkey Kong Country Returns’ adventurous journey.
