Parrot Chute Panic

Parrot Chute Panic is a bee hive level found in Gloomy Gulch of Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest. Gusty Glade is the level prior to this, and the next level is Web Woods.

Description


The level name is a pun on "Parachute Panic", referring to how the main Animal Buddy, Quawks, cannot fly upward and slowly flies down. The level is basically guiding Quawks down, avoiding the dozens of Zingers, and getting the various items obtainable, such as Banana Coins. Squawks is usable during the level's bonus rooms. He uses his ability to fly and coconut spitting to get through the levels.

This level features the most Zingers in the whole game, with well over fifty of them. Strangely, this isn't found near the main hive in Krazy Kremland and their king, King Zing.
