By default, every On & Off Barrel has the white text "OFF" painted on it. If [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]] touch an On & Off Barrel, all On & Off Barrels switch to "ON," lighting up the level for a few seconds, during which the [[Kong]]s can see the path and the enemies ahead. On & Off Barrels are similar to the [[Stop & Go Barrel]]s from [[Stop & Go Station]]. In the [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Color)|Game Boy Color version]], Loopy Lights is not as dark while the ON/OFF Barrels are turned off, and the [[Donkey Kong Country (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version]] gives the level maroon tint while the On & Off Barrels are set to "OFF," making it even less dark. | ||
Though On & Off Barrels make no other appearances, the ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]'' iteration of [[Glimmer's Galleon (Donkey Kong Land 2)|Glimmer's Galleon]] features a similar type of barrel throughout, named [[Light Barrel]]s, which temporarily brighten up the level. | Though On & Off Barrels make no other appearances, the ''[[Donkey Kong Land 2]]'' iteration of [[Glimmer's Galleon (Donkey Kong Land 2)|Glimmer's Galleon]] features a similar type of barrel throughout, named [[Light Barrel]]s, which temporarily brighten up the level. | ||
