'''Lightning Lookout''' is the thirty-third [[level]] in the [[Super Nintendo]] and [[Game Boy Advance]] game, ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]''. It is also the third area of [[KAOS Kore]]. In the game's Game Boy Advance remake, the level is instead the thirty-ninth level, though still the third area of the world. | '''Lightning Lookout''' is the thirty-third [[level]] in the [[Super Nintendo]] and [[Game Boy Advance]] game, ''[[Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!]]''.

This is the last riverside level, and is often mentioned as the hardest level of the game. In it, lightning shoots down at the ground, as if it were purposely in the [[Kong]]s' path. Before it strikes, there is a warning flash above the spot where it will hit. If the Kongs are in the water and lighting strikes it, they can get fried. The Kongs can use the lightning to their advantage, however, and let it destroy their enemies if they're clever enough. As the level progresses, the lightning strikes faster, causing more trouble for the Kongs. To make matters worse, the level is filled with [[Buzz (Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!)|Buzzes]], yellow [[Knik-Knak]]s, and [[Booty Bird]]s. A few red Knik-Knaks and a [[Nibbla]] also appear in one of the level's [[Bonus Area]]s, although Nibbla only appears in the Game Boy Advance version. | |||
It should be pointed out that while the lightning can be used to take out most enemies, Red Buzzes and Koin are immune to the lightning strikes. | It should be pointed out that while the lightning can be used to take out most enemies, Red Buzzes and Koin are immune to the lightning strikes. | ||

Several changes were made to the Game Boy Advance version of this level: | Several changes were made to the Game Boy Advance version of this level: | ||
*There is a longer break in between lightning strikes (roughly 4 seconds as opposed to the SNES version's 2 seconds). | |||
*The level is brighter and no flash occurs when lightning strikes on-screen. Also, the background is pitch black, except in the first Bonus level. | |||
*In the SNES version, the Kongs' skeleton can be seen briefly when they're struck by lightning; in the Game Boy Advance version, this only occurs if they are hit while underwater. | |||
*The red Buzz guarding the second Booty Bird is now green, making it easier to get the Steel Keg needed to defeat Koin. | |||
*The first Bonus area is much smaller and the player must defeat 6 Knik-Knaks instead of 7. | |||
