I was under the impression they respawned after you killed them, when you came running back and that you had to run and jump and hope not to step on one to make it. Only they don't respawn, apparently. Mehmory...

Even in the DK2 hive levels? Try relaxing and letting the background music kick in, it is a really magical atmosphere.

it doesn't matter if they're easy or not. They are gross and the animation for their attack shows the close-up of it wounding you then you quickly die and presumably they eat you afterwards.

It's weird.
To this day I still have the worst bee/wasp/whatever phobia, but I was never bothered by Zingers.
I actually find bee enemies and shit to usually be cool, and love hive-themed levels. The honeycomb levels in DKC2 were my favorite ones in the entire series.

Don't get me wrong, if I saw one in person I'd give it a wide berth. I ain't about to get stung by any kind of bee.

The sound these made...spent the whole level trying to stay out of the water...

And then the level boss was one mutated with a sarlacc the size of a Star Destroyer, and you had to fight it underwater, looking down into it's maw.

They always creep me out, but I find them creepier in DK64.

I remember being hella scared of a lot of enemies in DK64, particularly in caves. Like how the music dies down into a creepy, low tone with echoing ambiance, and then those Kasplats. Those fucking Kasplats.

I love it.

This huge guy creeped me out the last time I fought him. He's basically Black Tyranno redux, but everything about him weirded me out. The coloration, the size relative to the game screen, the fact that it's a living being and it rusted...
