Confession Time: I suck at Donkey Kong
Rok:
I have NEVER been good at Donkey Kong. I have no idea why.
Thus, I am currently trying to suck less at it, and was crazy excited about posting a 39600 high score today.
Anyone else have this problem with Donkey Kong or another game?

I hear you, my friend. I kept getting stuck at around 35-45,000, then one night, recently, I got 96,000 or so. Sometimes, you just get in a zone!!!! Keep practicing, you'll get there!
wweumina:
What screen(s) are you dying the most on?
Barrels - Get used to watching/controlling barrels a couple of levels above you (ironically the control gets easier a few levels in)
Rivets - Use the established pattern with a bit of patience.
Springs - Shouldn't be an issue at that score. Are u taking the shortcut?
Pies - Keep an eye on the flames as they start off and hurry right if all clear. Be patient if it doesn't work early but move quickly when u make ur run.
