Jungle Hijinx

Jungle Hijinx is a stage in Super Smash Flash 2 hailing from the game Donkey Kong Country as it is the home stage to Donkey Kong. It is also an original stage, meaning it doesn't appear in any of the official Super Smash Bros. games.

Layout
The stage is very simplistic on its design, it contains one main platform with a small rocky-plateau on the left and a separated pass-through hill in the right. A Barrel Cannon is located on the left side of the stage. Players can hop into the barrel and press a button to shoot the character out of the barrel. If they don't command any action, the barrel will simply shoot by itself. It should be noted that only one player can be inside of the barrel. Other players that attempt to get inside while it is occupied will simply go through it. The background includes Donkey Kong's treehouse that can be seen behind some palm trees, the crate of the Animal Buddy Rambi that can be seen behind another group of palm trees, and the silhouettes of some Mini-Neckys can be seen flying in the sunset.

Origin
Jungle Hijinx is highly influenced on the Donkey Kong Country level of the same name. However, despite this the stage is actually based on the many jungle levels from Donkey Kong Country. This is because the level Jungle Hijinx is not set in a sunset, but instead a cloudy sky. The actual level that is set in a sunset is another jungle level known as Orang-Utan Gang. The Barrel Cannon is another example. It is not present in Jungle Hijinx, but in subsequent levels; not just in jungle levels. The rest of the background, with one exception (Mini-Neckys appeared in other levels) originally appeared in the Jungle Hijinx level. DK's treehouse was the place where the player started the quest while the Rambi's crate could be opened to ride the Animal Buddy.

Music
The BGM for this stage is titled DK Island Swing from Donkey Kong Country's soundtrack.

Trivia

 * This stage's layout and design are more or less copied wholesale from its counterpart of the same name from Super Nuke Bros. Melee, another Smash Bros. fangame being developed by a completely different team, although SSF2's version is much larger space-wise and has slightly different features.
