Trivia

  • Although the creature is a spider, it has only six legs.
  • The attacks the Giant Spider uses, as well as the Giant Spider's general appearance, can be based on the Donkey Kong Country 3 boss, Arich.
  • When the spider spits webs at Tiny, it has no way of knowing where she is, as it is asleep.
