Donkey Kong Country Returns - 4-5 Crowded Cavern

This level is batshit crazy...see what I did there? Ha. -_-
At the end of the video you see me about to go to 4-K, but I decided that I'll just do all the K levels after beating the regular levels. 4-B will be next.

[@wiisalute]

I always play around with the beginning. I almost activate the rocket barrel and then stop and watch the cute bats go to sleep lol

[@terencehill1325]

I always did that lol

[@krealyesitisbeta5642]

Me too.

[@leopoldbeutlerfristal5380]

WTF same here

[@angiectoan4543]

They're certainly not cute when they're awake though...

[@LuigiFan810]

Me too

[@sanguine5275]

I love how sometimes the giant bat can't hurt you, it's just a distraction...but if you go in that level for the first time it's horrifying.

[@thefaker4751]

Kind of unrelated but I find the octopus levels in both games (tropical freeze and returns) to be quite scary

[@Alex_Munoz5]

@@thefaker4751 Yeah. My cousin and I always remember that level. The octopus is a menace

[@lizandrajardim7900]

2:34 It was funny when he went back to check if the bat was ok XD

[@gotisc]

I went that cave with 99 lives and lost every single one. It was 2 player so it was more like 50 lives but I still hates that bat!

[@creepyghostproductionz9026]

Gotis...SAME...smh, lol

[@123123s3]

This level gets referenced in tropical freeze how?...that damn giant bat......lets say he just...chilled out

[@Grayman2003]

Ratsel That's Dark

[@ridiculicious]

Grayman 2003 Don't worry, you probably seen it by now, but judging by the reference and ending, it probably survived.

[@krealyesitisbeta5642]

I thought it was the mother bat.

[@BardTheDragonProductions]

@@krealyesitisbeta5642 it is

It kinda deserves it

It just keeps missing Rillaboom.

[@davinchristino]

It won't miss that often though ;)

[@liamthecrusader5056]

Normal moves can’t be super effective

[@Kfowlkes09]

For me these damn barrel levels are the hardest ones in the game.

[@abc.animal5143]

One of the most stressful levels in the game

[@piers1796]

Everything about this level is awesome. The music, the chase, and the finish!

[@kylestubbs8867]

Everything except the giant bat itself.

​@@kylestubbs8867screw the bat,all my homies hate the giant bat

[@spongebobsailormoon98produ43]

No not that last section! That was awful! I can’t even get pass it.

[@BellaK423]

I see why the people who made brawl loved donkey kong music

[@Darkstar263]

I found this level to be a nightmare in the Wii version. I recently bought the 3DS version and have reached this level. I had forgotten how much I despised it. Without a doubt one of the hardest levels in the game.

[@Xandawesome]

Haha, no.

[@ryandiggs750]

Hell yeah this level was a pain in the ass

[@mrmystic6275]

Lost like 30+ lives on it. And it’s only world 4!!

[@lordroy88]

RIP Mega Squeakly, 2010-2014 At the start, mega squeekly was doing nothing but napping. He then awakens from him slumber and begins his attacking and managed to swoop away before danger. When he comes back, you have to be more careful. You think he’s gone when he hits a wall, but then he returns with his lasers, DK even looks back in fear. He shoots a very powerful laser before being blindsided by a crystal and flipping over! In Tropical Freeze, he is trapped in the snowmad’s ice, still in the caverns on DK island, watching DK soaring by, helpless, thanks to his own foolishness, his last sight his one true nemesis succeeding. THIS is quite the saga!

[@cvcvbbath3756]

DK looks back and makes a motion like he's saying "GO AWAY!". Either that or he facepalms, like "HIM again?!"

[@Link-ho8yq]

I never finished the part with the big bat's sonic attacks... Had to have a friend (fan of Flappy Bird) finish it for me...

[@jzip]

Flappy bird lmao I didn't even think of that haha

[@RedRockin2000]

I love how at 2:04 he looks back like "oh shit"

[@FBI-zi9hd]

And he waves his hand like "FUCK YOU"

[@josma1225]

I have spent two weeks on this level, mainly the giant laser firing bat. I always make sure to buy extra lives before I try this level, to.

[@brailey7]

THE FAT BAT KEEPS FREAKING KILLING ME. it saddens me.

[@jzip]

It ANGERS ME lol

[@Rbombsaway2]

2:22 IMA FIRIN MAH LAZAR!!! *SHOOP DA WHOOP*

[@shaknownechrono1630]

Entered this level at 98 lives, had 64 when I was done. AND, that was just looking for the missing puzzle piece I was trying to find which was at the F*CKING BEGINNING. I thought you had to get a certain amount of those bananas while the bat shot at you to get it. -_-

[@Spingerex]

You can miss a lot of things in this game and feel like an idiot when you watch someone else find those said things that you missed.

[@thefaker4751]

@@Spingerex I hate it whenever I have to look up a secret exit or a puzzle piece in tropical freeze, it just feels so wrong.

[@billmonb]

who here dislikes the cave world the most?

It was hard, but I somewhat liked it

[@DiamondBFIC]

[@XwX1001]

*SO. MANY. MINECART LEVELS.* I love this game with all my heart, yes, but I DREAD this world because of its overabundance of those STUPIDLY HARD minecart levels!

[@snoopdaug47]

This world was one of my favourites.

[@BardTheDragonProductions]

It’s my favorite world though

[@BrochachoTheBro]

its actually beatable?

[@TotalDramaLettuce]

somehow

[@mr.canon3567]

That level drove me to pure *INSANITY* to the point of unable to beat the world itself!!!!!!!

[@morninglighttrail]

a lesson to be learned: never, ever bother heavy, animal sleepers.

[@mrclaymore6374]

2:15 I've got some PTSD O_O

[@MikeBeanFox]

man that level sure Drives me BATS!

[@Lum2022]

Freakin’ Golbats… On the other hand, the level is such a adrenaline rush though when you try to beat it in 1 go 👏

[@spongebobsailormoon98produ43]

This level is really evil when you get to the last section before the goal!

[@StraightAProductions]

"Like" if your favorite part is when the giant bat twitches at the end. :)

[@Sidepocket2600]

Donkey Kong: Suddenly we were surrounded by what looked large bats! Swooping and sweeping all around us and someone was screaming "HOLY JESUS LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THESE GOD DAMN ANIMALS! Diddy wanted to stop to pick up the remaining puzzle piece but I protested "You can't stop here, THIS IS BAT COUNTRY! GOD DAMN BATS!"

[@AaronFu-ip3jl]

The giant bat is acting just like an angry mom going after her disobedient child 😂

[@bouncytheboi8175]

ZUBATS EVERYWERE!

[@theivoryguy2476]

This level is a nice refreshing glass of Nope served with an appetizer of Not gonna happen.

[@rodolfobrenner5404]

The hardest level in all DKC games

[@b0ss747]

Nah, far from the hardest level

[@immanuelweaver4522]

My favorite level in the cave area.

[@BardTheDragonProductions]

Same I also like bombs away

[@paulpavlus6664]

I guess this place is nice for finding Zubat and Golbat too right?

[@Deinonychus2]

the reason the bats attack DK in future levels is because they were still pissed off at him for waking them up here

[@xaleel2012]

nice gameplay bro very hard level

[@BlackenedGass]

Wow you made this level look easy! It took me at least 50 goes.

[@Aylen-uk5xl]

Aww, these bats are cute... Im pretty shure i'm not gonna disturb them, (actvates rocket barrel) oh, GOTTA RUN FROM THESE DANG BATS!

[@TMan5636]

Giant Bat: IMMA FIRIN MAH LAZAR!!!!!!!!

[@JoeFanik]

The bats looked so cute when they were sleeping

[@MrDanTheMathMan]

The trick I found with the last section is to jump between the very bottom and very top. The bat takes longer to catch up to you that way. Just be careful not to crash into the bottom - descend slower by tapping A.

[@xavier76thman]

This makes sense i'm going to try it i'll let you know if I FINALLY beat it thanks👍

[@angelodalton4391]

My friend said this is her favorite level, so much nostalgia, I’ve never played the game but she has played it so much 😂 , she also loved the background music 😂

[@Rockman626]

when the giant bat appears the final time everyone and dk are all like "GO AWAY DX'

[@rikhavsanjeev]

The first puzzle piece appears when the walkway collapses, and you need to quickly jump off to get it

[@Terenigma]

Bought this game today on 3DS and 2:00 onwards gave me like 15 deaths (the most in a single level thus far) love this game but it can get irratating sometimes xD

[@ktown1228]

Rouge The Bat’s reaction to DKCR World 4-5 Crowded Cavern

[@dannytallman3022]

Diddy Kong: Uh oh. Donkey Kong: Don't tell me. There's a bunch of bats sleeping. Diddy Kong: Yep. Donkey Kong: If we wake them up, we're doomed? Diddy Kong: Most likely. Donkey Kong: Bring it on.

[@habboi]

Some people say Demon's / Dark Souls was one of the hardest games when it came out but I'd make anyone who said that play DKCR and they'd break down. This game was not designed for co-op, so much pain XD Though it was pretty annoying to make us lose two lives if only one of us died in a level.

[@myfingershurt3489]

How many people felt relieved after thinking you won until that Kamehameha got you. Ughhhhh

[@skywalkerb6746]

1:40 and 1:50 ... Me: j-j-just keep fl-flying, j-j-just keep fl-flying j-j-just keep fl-flying, flying, fl- FLY FASTER!!!

The most persistent enemy I've ever seen.

[@jordanb.6822]

I'll remember this when I was little these bats where so hard-headed

[@reptilerandykrusha6426]

I'm slightly bummed that most find this level more annoying than anything. Just by looking at it alone I think it's 🔥. Especially the Giant Bat's Roar of blind rage at the start.

[@VampireZombieX]

I always died in this level... but I never got it why the bats and the giant bat got so mad? They seem so peaseful in the beginning. Almost feel sorry for the bat at the end, though. Almost. Nice gameplay.

[@cradiculous]

You'd be mad too if someone started a rocket engine in your room while you were trying to sleep.

[@Willlowxb23]

Ive just noticed this is some way of hiding a hidden origin story with Laylee the Bat from Yooka-Laylee. I mean Huge Purple Bat same big nose 🐽

[@SilverArro]

@BlueJuan85 Have you done Muncher Marathon yet? The N in that level was absolutely evil.

[@bend7726]

This is my least favourite normal level in the whole game due to the damn bat section at the end. Sometimes the shock waves it shoots are undodgeable

[@richtea87]

this level cost me countless lives......... but i finally beat it just now :D

[@WolvesBaseballNine]

2:05 and on... Went from like 40 something lives to like 7...

99 lives to 79... better than how I did on the Wii version, ie quitting.

where’s the 5th puzzle piece? I have spent soooo much time looking for it and it’s driving me crazy

[@Finkster5]

Definitely one of the harder levels early on.

[@skywalkerb6746]

Basically what I'm like when someone wakes me up..

[@Omegajunior2658]

I remember this level. Donkey Kong and his pal Diddy activates the rocket which awakens the giant bat and his minions from their nap and they become really upset with them. Giant bat: How dare you wake us up from our nap! You'll regret this, you miserable apes!

[@xldjvista]

You gotta get tropical freeze when it comes out!

[@dabuttawhip]

Ughhh stuck on this one... but I don't want to sacrifice my dignity and let "super kong" do it for me :/ Nice vid.

[@hypno-scream5652]

You can still see the tip of the Giant Bat's wing when he starts to break through the ceiling. Either that was an error...or there's more than one of those giant bats!

[@44bigfreeze]

I can't see it, but I think you mean 1:44

[@hypno-scream5652]

Yup

[@BardTheDragonProductions]

There is probably more than one

[@ToxicKrest]

This was a lesson of DKC: Don't meses with a bats. IF don't is a Sonic scream it's a mundial virus.

@Tekma ty very much i figure like 10 minutes after i saw the vid, i had to buy squawks, but i manage to get all of em,, ty for ur reply i am now at stage 6, with all puzzles if u need any let me know thx

OMG!!! After dying over 10.000 times... I finally beat this damn level... Darn bat at the end... BOOYA!!

2:05 Donkey Kong at the Bat: STOP IT!!!

[@Tekma]

@kempachi9 to get the first puzzle piece, stand on the bridge til it's about to fall and then jump back left to the start of the level and the puzzle piece falls

There a puzzle pieces at the beginning:roll jump and go to the left side of the bidge the falls to get it

[@immanuelweaver4522]

I love bats!

[@DoomedDragonz]

hate this level so much, esp at the end when the giant bat fires its blasts at you. Lost like 50 lives when I tried this level for the first time collecting ALL of the KONG letters and the puzzle pieces

[@moldingthegalaxy]

SUBBED

[@dangerman1013]

How do you get through that last part?

[@pokemaster361]

They should have had at least one boss level that involved using the Barrel Rocket. I wouldn't have minded if it was the 2nd part of the boss fight in World 7.

[@_JustAnotherKid__]

Yup also hated this level

[@morninglighttrail]

ohhh, how i hate the part when the giant, purple bat shoots out those purple, super-sonic blasts! any tips, anyone?

[@44bigfreeze]

A tip: Fly in a basic and repetitive pattern. If you simply can't do it, use Banana Juice :)

[@Alan8tor]

i used to hate this level but now i come back just for the fun of it. weird isn't it?

[@GentlemanBones]

I just died...like...ninety times in the same section of this level. Fuck this level.

[@DarkStar7X]

Fuck this level. It's freakin torture!

[@Darkstar263]

I reached this level last night. Quite possibly the hardest level so far. In fact, I hate all of the cave levels. I can get through most of this level. It's just the final stretch dodging those blasts that I can't seem to do. I used up THIRTY FUCKING LIVES on that one part alone. I thought fuck this after getting game over. Sort of puts me off trying for 100% sometime. Without a doubt the hardest game I've played this year.

[@kempachi9]

i cant find the other puzzle Dx

[@gateitogototo8976]

took me 46 lives... yikes

[@xavier76thman]

Finally beat this level, all letters and puzzle pieces, took me about 14 tries🐵🐒

[@spongebob9831]

I wonder what is the giant bat's name.

[@MajorFenix]

Golbat used Supersonic...

[@Mockturtlesoup1]

so where's the 5th puzzle piece? I came to this video looking for it, because I got this same puzzle pieces. I had to watch the video again thinking I missed something, but didn't realize you only got 4 of the 5 puzzle pieces.
