[WORLD RECORD] DKC: Tropical Freeze 100% Speedrun in
And with that, I became the first person to get all 5/5 Funky Mode World Records. Thank you so much to everyone who watched this run live or supported this journey. I'm not sure if I would've been motivated enough without you...
Shoutouts to @Huggbees for watching this run live, what a legend!
I should also note that I'm satisfied with my records and will likely not run the game that often if at all now, finally.
However, I may do other stuff in the future on my Twitch channel, so be sure to check it out to not miss my streams - www.twitch.tv/letsuigi56
--FAQ--
Q: Why don't you collect all the puzzle pieces? This isn't true 100%!
A: No, 100% only means All Stages, since completing a stage is the only thing the game counts towards the percentage.

Q: Why don't you get every exit?
A: Because we only need every level to be completed with all the KONG letters, choosing the least amount of necessary exits is therefore faster.
Q: Why do you die so often in 2-4?
A: That's because of a game's mechanic for Funky Mode called "Death Abuse". If you manage to die 8 times, you can skip a level entirely. This is used in 2-4 to avoid another ride with the minecart which saves around 30 seconds. It's not used anywhere else in 100% because we need the KONG letters and dying would be slower.
Q: Why do you play in German, isn't Japanese, Chinese or Korean usually the fastest language?
A: Every language is exactly the same because we don't have any additional textboxes or scrolling text to worry about where less characters from these languages would be beneficial.
Q: What version of the game and what console are you playing on?
A: I play on the switch version because it's the fastest (and has Funky Mode) and the digital version of that because of way faster load times compared to the physical version.
Q: Is a Sub 2:18 possible or is this run literally perfect?
A: No, a Sub 2:18 is possible and I could've gotten it with a slightly faster 7-3.
