DK: King of Swing is a video game developed by Paon and published by Nintendo. It is the first Donkey Kong game for the Game Boy Advance that is not a port of one of the Super Nintendo games. Some players have critisied DK: King of Swing for being short (requiring only a few hours to complete) and repetitive. Comments have also been made about the cartoon-style graphics as a step back from the 3D rendered graphics featured in the Donkey Kong Country series.
Story
As the story goes, we learn that the Kongs are having a Jungle Jam Tournament, to determine who will be the Jungle Hero. King K. Rool, having apparently lost his ambitions since Donkey Kong 64, steals the medallions, prizes in the competitions, so he can become the Jungle Hero.
In the game you control Donkey Kong or Diddy Kong, and track down King K. Rool and the stolen medallions. Diddy is only playable after certain conditions are met.
Controls
The controls seem complicated, but become easier after Cranky Kong and Wrinkly Kong's demonstration. The L Button moves you left, on the land and in the air. The R Button moves you right in the same fashion. To jump, hit the L and R buttons at the same time. Hold L and R to do a charge jump. The B button will restore one heart on your life meter, at the cost of 10 bananas. The A button activates an ability called "Going Bananas", which causes DK to become invincible, at the cost of 20 bananas.
The control scheme of using the shoulder buttons is similar to using the bongos in Donkey Kong: Jungle Beat.
Gameplay
In the game, you swing around on pegs, in a way similar to Clu Clu Land. Scattered throughout levels, in addition to Peg Boards and Bananas, are Crystal Coconuts, Medallions, Enemies, and Bonus Barrels.
