Growing Up In Donkey Kong Country
He's back again, and about time too
I've had a tumultuous relationship with the Donkey Kong Country series, featuring plenty of ups and downs. It's a series that made me fall in love, hate, and fall in love all over again with gaming, not necessarily through quality alone, but through the means in which I've played them over the years. In this video, I wanted to discuss what it was like to play each game at different stages of my life. These games are profoundly important to me, so I hope I did them justice!
