Steerable Barrel


 * Not to be confused with Rotatable Barrel.

Steerable Barrels are a type of Barrel Cannon that can be moved and aimed in Donkey Kong Country 2. Steerable Barrels are exclusive to the level "Fiery Furnace".

These barrels are recognizable by their image of a "d-pad", or directional button insignia on the barrel. Once jumped in, they can be steered in all directions, though not rotated and specifically aimed (as their counterparts Rotatable Barrels). Once entered, a secret countdown is initiated, and will fire after a few seconds. Since they always fire upwards, they are usually used to get to higher ground or relay to another one to do so.
