God, the last few levels are flipin' hard!
Finished with a time of 6 hours 14 minutes, with an (abismal) 245 bananas
*feels ashamed of awful banana total*
Oh well

Done that too, just need to have a go on Expert.
How many monkeys (lives) have you got? I think i've got about 15
But does it really matter?
Nothing's really vexed me yet. Just gotta keep trying.
Great game though.
I found a way to do things better - turn the sound off.
Without the monkey screams and grunts and oh-so-nice music, you feel less like the game's taking the urine when you're stuck. Which is good.
And another thing - to get 100% on each level (in the stats e.g you did them all in 1 go) when you fall off pause it and then restart - it doesn't count that as your go.
And you skip the annoying replays - what's up with that? Yes, I know I fecked up badly, there's no need to rub my face in it from a variety of interesting angles, is there?
Ei-Ei-Poo.
Classic.
1st one I completed in 11 hours 17 minutes.
2nd one I completed in 7 hours 43 minutes.
I'm now on my third, having just finished World 4 with just over half an hour gone.
I can now complete Beginner (+ Extra Stages) on Challenge Mode without losing a single life, and I can do Advanced (+ Extra Stages) on Challenge Mode losing on three lives (I'm trying to improve on this). I'll start on Expert soon.
Stupidly hard.
The cute noises that they make soon become really annoying, as do the replays.
But its a wicked game.
Everyone else (well, most people) had trouble with Launchers and Arthropod, but I found both of them easy.
I'll check how long it took me to complete it.
