The author, Tompa, also provided audio commentary of his TAS along with Pichi, which is available right here.

Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong are on a quest to retrieve the former's banana horde from the Kremlings. They are doing it as quickly as possible, without bothering to enter all the bonus rooms.

Except this time, they've found a way to get the banana horde back without leaving the comfort of their own home. By using an ACE setup to inject code that triggers the ending cut-scene with Cranky Kong, they get the horde back in just over a minute. Please read the author's comments for more details.

Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong are on a quest to retrieve the former's banana horde from the Kremlings. But with less hurry than usual.

In this run, Tompa completes the game while avoiding the Y button that allows characters to run and to roll. Game mechanics such as grabbing a rope and getting shot out of a barrel are used to boost character speeds. See the author's comments for details.

Note: 5 presses of the Y button are required in one boss fight in order to pick up and throw barrels.
