World name Kremwood Forest
Level name Bobbing Barrel Brawl
Previous level Springin' Spiders 103
Next level Arich's Hoard after 1st visit

Intermediate (no Ellie skip)

Notes

  • Bear coins count: 18
  • Optimally, do the Banana Bird cave after the warp but before revisiting. This saves around 10 frames of overworld movement.
  • When you are an animal buddy and you take damage while jumping, there is a small window where you can jump again if you repress B. This is used to reach the second bonus faster.

Optimal (Ellie skip)

Notes

  • Bear coins count: 18
  • Optimally, do the Banana Bird cave after the warp but before revisiting. This saves around 10 frames of overworld movement.
  • When entering the 1st bonus, hold Y but be neutral on the d-pad until you start the neutral roll. This will allow you to roll through the barrel for water bounces.
  • When water bouncing across the pond at 0:54, hold up to make sure you bonk into the right ledge. This bonk sets up the correct timing to roll under the red bee.
  • Slipping to the left of the bees before the Koin is tight. Make sure your movement leading up to it is clean or you will take damage.
  • When water bouncing across the pond starting at 1:13, hold left toward the end of the first bounce to avoid bonking the right ledge.

ALTERNATIVE ELLIE SKIP

Notes

  • This is the classic Bobbing Barrel Brawl Ellie skip. If you get it first try, it is slightly faster than the Ellie skip method seen in the videos above.
  • Hold left when in the barrel, and as soon as you go out of the barrel, release so that you are facing the left direction without moving. At the top of your jump, hold Right to go to the ledge, team up as soon as you land on the ledge and throw up as soon as possible.
