A Bazuka is a red Kremling encountered in the game Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! and Donkey Kong Land 3. They wield large barrel cannons with laser sighters, and bear a passing resemblance to Kopters. They are the game's equivalent of Kannons, shooting barrels in a pattern, or crazily in one direction. They can shoot all kinds of barrels, including TNT Barrels or Steel Kegs, and bouncing on their projectiles is often mandatory to cross gaps or to reach Bonus Areas. In several levels, a Bazuka is needed to reach that level's DK Coin: Dixie and Kiddy must lure him into shooting a Steel Keg at a Koin. Bazukas can't hurt the Kongs directly, but their barrel cannons protect them from Dixie and Kiddy's direct attacks. However, it's possible to defeat a Bazuka just by throwing a TNT Barrel at one.
Bazukas first appear in Blazing Bazukas, the fourth level of Mekanos, which sees the Kongs making their way through a large factory infested with those barrel-shooting Kremlings. In a level of Krematoa, called Criss Kross Cliffs, Bazukas were necessary, as one at the bottom of the level would fire Steel Kegs continuously up. Kiddy and Dixie Kong had to leaped onto them as the barrels pushed them upward. At times, they could change the barrels from wooden to metal or TNT, utilizing switches throughout the stage, to clear the way of Red Buzzes and other obstacles.
In Donkey Kong Land III, Bazukas are seen in all four factory levels -Karbine Kaos, Bazuka Bombard, Kuchuka Karnage and Barrel Boulevard. Strangely, there are not many Bazukas in "Bazuka Bombard". They are also in two of the jungle levels: Jungle Jeopardy and Tropical Tightropes. Also, in Donkey Kong Land III, it is impossible to defeat a Bazuka.
Trivia
- According to the game's credits, Bazukas belong to the "Kremling Kreeps" enemy class.
