Hack description

This hack was made by RainbowSprinklez, under the guidance of Myself086 (a real genius). The game only allows 5 Y presses, in the bee boss. And they will automatically be 1 frame inputs, even if you hold Y! Holding Y does nothing for you.

Every entrance starts you with both Kongs. Bonuses too! The last stage was made easier because let's be real. Did you really want to go through that grey Krusha section with no Y? All the Krushas in the final level are now green. Green means DK could kill by stomping on their head, and Diddy bounces off of them.

This also does a few other things. For example, infinite lives are given. Also, quick deaths are now a thing.

This is a fun race to try!

This requires an unheadered 1.0 U DKC ROM.

Really Minimal Y Press functionality	OrangeCrush666	2020-08-02	Version 1.45
While testing with excitement there was a major drawback. The running was completely disabled. I tried multiple ROM downloads to see if it was the incorrect ROM but no avail. At the current state until this is fix I would stick with the original version. Also the intro with the Rainbow logo does make the patch seem cheaper and can be done without or at least increase the detail to blend with the into much better.
