Optimal

Notes

  • Bear coin count: 32
  • When you jump to a higher platform with Dixie, she can sometimes have a delay before you're able to jump again. To avoid this, jump such that Dixie lands on the platform at the apex of her jump, as shown in the image below.

  • If you lose Dixie before the first bonus, you'll have to make a detour to pick up Quawks first.
  • The first bonus is deceptively difficult. It is very easy to miss one star during a jump, forcing you to go back and pick it up.
  • For passing through the two green bees at 1:23, align the pipes in the background between Squawk’s claws.
  • At 2:11, Quawks is slowed down a bit to make it through the bees without getting hit.
  • To jump over two bees at the end, do a big jump that does not hit the ceiling. The ceiling pushes the Kongs down faster.

MORE STRATS

Notes

  • The just defend is arguably easier than other just defends, because of the slower movement. However, it is better to avoid it if you cannot do it reliably, as losing a Kong slows you down significantly.
  • The corner cut is rather precise. A good indication whether you will get it is the bottom banana: if Dixie doesn't pick it up you either get the corner cut or you pressed right too early and will bonk into the wall. If Dixie picks it up while you're already holding right, you will get the corner cut. If you pick it up before holding right or while switching from left to right, you will get hit by the bee. If you are not sure, it is safer to opt out of it.
  • Unlike Any%, it is not faster to roll down the shaft after the corner cut, and it's faster to fall down instead.

BACKUP BEAR COIN

Notes

  • Loses about 0.8 seconds if you don't go for the corner cut; about 0.95 compared to the corner cut.
