I will destroy all your scores. I have 3 day weekend. Which is ironic because it will be 3 days in whcih you'll all see your weak (scores) end!

Seriosuyl i'm pretty sure I'm better that you at Cherry and Melon kingdoms. I will get scores soon.

CHEN · « **Reply #76 on:** April 16, 2005, 07:05:54 AM »

The only scores that have beaten you guys are:

Apple - 1393
Strawberry - 1790
Peach - 2193
Melon - 1457

I still need to get Platinums on all the kingdoms starting with Durian. I haven't gone back in weeks now, not much incentive. : /

ok Im on my mission to beat those times now. We should add records for furtherest distance jumped and things like that

CHEN · « **Reply #80 on:** April 17, 2005, 03:16:27 AM »

Wow, you have the same score in Melon as me?

I'll probably get beaten eventually, those scores mean nothing compared to your Pineapple. Congrats!

God, I've been meaning to pick up DK: Jungle Beat ever since I played it at gamestop a few weeks back... but now I feel obligated to do it ASAP after seeing these numbers:

Well done! Oh hey I got 2438 in Banana Kingdom.

I'm pretty sure I can get higher too, i'm so damn addicted to that level.

I'll start beating your other scores when i'm 100% satisfied with my Banana Kingdom score.

If they ever make a sequel to this, I hope they ramp up the bosses.

Especially Ghastly King:

For such a stylistic game, its disappointing the last bosses arent as hard as they should be...

Caliban · « **Reply #88 on:** April 29, 2005, 06:10:52 PM »

Are these Top scores, that you guys are posting, the number of bananas caught in a single kingdom? I'm asking because I just got the game yesterday and I've got for every kingdom that I unlocked (up to Grape I think) gold medals/tokens (except for Banana Kingdom) but I'm still having a hard time finding that much Bananas.

Mario · « **Reply #89 on:** April 29, 2005, 06:29:35 PM »

Finding the bananas is just the first step, you have to extract as many points as you can from them. Say there's a bunch of 5 bananas, you could just walk into them and get 5 added to your beats total, or you could backflip into a wall, walljump, ground pound into a monkey that throws you up or a jelly, bounce up and THEN clap and grab all the bananas at the same time and you'd get about 50 beats just for those 5 bananas.

Just keep playing and you'll get the hang of it and start to notice more combo opportunities.

Bartman3010 · « **Reply #90 on:** April 29, 2005, 06:45:06 PM »

Pretty much, basically. What happens is the number doubles if you clap next to banannas. That way you can grab a group of banannas around you, and double the points. And performing certain actions like backflipping, wall jumping or manipulating some other items causes a combo, that way you can keep adding to your overall score, so long as you dont get hit once.

Oh, and I've (Barely) broke some records myself.

Melon Kingdom - 1483
Ghastly King - 1268

I'd watch out, Mario, I'm not so far off from you (Though I doubt anyone else is, either...)

Edit: If you beat Ghastly King, you'll see clips of some of the bigger combos pulled off. Especially about over 3000 on the first level of the Chilli Pepper Kingdom.

Robotor · « **Reply #91 on:** April 29, 2005, 06:54:43 PM »

I find that watching a friend play can really help you spot combos. I was watching a friend today, and went back and replayed the levels he played through, and was able to remember what was coming up next and where to jump to etc.

Also, how exactly does one preform a backflip, I'm having a lot of trouble with it.

Bartman3010 · « **Reply #92 on:** April 29, 2005, 07:44:55 PM »

Move in the opposite direction you want to jump, let go of that bongo, now hit the other bongo and hold it, then press and hold the other one.

Say if you wanted to jump left, and you stood still. Hit right twice, let go quickly, press and hold left, then press and hold right while he skids.

Mario · « **Reply #93 on:** April 29, 2005, 08:32:27 PM »

Yeah, the same way you would do one in Super Mario 64.

Bartman3010 · « **Reply #94 on:** May 02, 2005, 08:24:14 AM »

Melon Kingdom - 1910, huzzah...for now...

Dasmos · « **Reply #95 on:** May 03, 2005, 03:06:23 AM »

This has been a huge hit among my friends. It's gotten 2 of my friends to buy DK:JB and one to buy Donkey Konga (because he couldn't find JB)

I got 1826 on Starfruit....

Hostile Creation · « **Reply #96 on:** May 04, 2005, 04:27:29 PM »

I might get this tomorrow

mjbd · « **Reply #97 on:** May 05, 2005, 05:36:49 PM »

I went ahead and picked this game up a few days ago. I thought it looked stupid until I saw a video of someone playing it at last years E3. I had bought Donkey Konga when it first came out, and my friends and I have had a blast with that. Jungle Beat makes me glad I own a set of Bongo's. It makes very good use of the unique controls, and has been a very enjoyable experience. Anyone who owns Donkey Konga should definately give this game a try.
