Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest Cheats

In bee-hive styled levels (such as "Hornet Hole") there are patches of honey on the walls and floor. When you attempt to walk across these sticky spots, you usually just get stuck in one place, and can only progress by jumping repeatedly. While the game will only let certain animals such as the spider trudge through these spots unaffected, there is a way to cross them while still playing as Diddy or Dixie.
While standing on solid ground, press the "A" button to team up, then just stroll through the honey. This trick is rather affective when wanting to jump over stationary bees who block you path. Please note that you cannot team up if you are already on the honey, and if you throw your team mate you will be reverted back to being "stuck".

Once you get half way through "Screech's Sprint" you will transform into the bird, and, normally, you will fly up to Screech and the race will start. If you come up right behind Screech to where the race will not start yet, and you fly upwards (you must have both characters at this point for this to work), you will then hit the the ceiling and hurt yourself causeing yourself to blink. Quickly, while you are still blinking, pass Screech and head off to the rest of the level without having to worry about doing it in good time.
