Designing For is a series which looks at one specific level, character, or idea in gaming and breaks down the central theme to that element to figure out what it's, well, designing for! In this episode, we look at the weird and winding history of Diddy Kong Racing - how it accidentally served as a backdoor pilot for multiple other series, how it spawned different titles in its wake, and the weird combination of factors that make up a vibrant Donkey Kong Universe.
