DKC2 'Diddy Kong's Quest'
Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest (abbreviated to DKC2) is a 1995 adventure platform game developed for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (otherwise known as the "SNES") produced by Rareware (UK) and published by Nintendo (Japan) - with Diddy Kong and Dixie Kong starring as the main characters of the game. Donkey Kong Country 2 was released on December 14, 1995 as a sequel to the original Donkey Kong Country (1994) which was later followed by Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble! (1996). DKC2 was later also released on the Game Boy Advance in 2004 and was until recently available for download on the Wii's Virtual Console, having become one of the most popular games of its age.
With successful DKC game release I was promoted to Senior Artist on 'DKC2 - Diddy Kong's Quest'. I was mainly responsible for the background levels and effects for the game.
DKC2 Diddy Kong's Quest for the Nintendo SNES sold 4.37 Million copies.
