History[edit ]
Donkey Kong Country[edit ]
- “You can roll over Slippa, or just squash him with a jump attack!”
- —Cranky Kong , Donkey Kong Country
Slippas' only game appearance in the Donkey Kong Country series is in Donkey Kong Country and its remakes of the same name as enemies. Slippas move by slithering on the ground. Slippas can be defeated from any attack, including being rolled into, jumped on, or from a barrel. A Slippa makes a hissing noise when defeated. In Misty Mine, Slippas are released from some black drums indefinitely.
Donkey Kong Country novel[edit ]
A single Slippa appears as a minor antagonist in the Donkey Kong Country novel. As the Kongs explore the Abandoned Mines, Slippa and Army ambush the group. Slippa proclaims that "thessse minesss are oursss" and attempts to attack Diddy, but Diddy stomps him with a double jump. Slippa then escapes back into the darkness.
Donkey Kong Land[edit ]
Slippas' only game appearance in the Donkey Kong Land series is in Donkey Kong Land as enemies. They appear in many more levels and in a wider variety of environments than before, including mines, jungles, and skyscrapers. Slippas sometimes pop out of baskets. In Riggin' Rumble and Skyscraper Caper, Slippas slither down the ropes until they reach the bottom. These Slippas can only be defeated by a thrown barrel.
