Editing List of extras in Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze

{{italic title|List of extras in ''Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze''}}
{{see also|List of extras in Donkey Kong Country Returns}}
By completing certain tasks in ''[[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze]]'' and its Nintendo Switch [[Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (Nintendo Switch)|port]], such as collecting [[Puzzle Piece (Donkey Kong Country series)|Puzzle Pieces]] or defeating bosses, players can unlock optional content, which includes images, music and diormas accessible in their dedicated galleries. Players can find these in the "EXTRAS" section of the menu, after unlocking them. The images are artworks and sketches that show ideas proposed during the development of the game. The music gallery contains part of the game's soundtrack selection, which can be played and listened anytime from there. Dioramas and figurines are three-dimensional models of still characters and environments that can be rotated and zoomed in or out.

Below is a list of all the extras available in the game.

==Figurines==
[[File:FigurinesGallery.jpg|left|thumb|200px]]
{{main|Capsule Toy Machine#Figurines gallery}}
[[Funky Kong]]'s Capsule Toy Machine vends figurines which are miniature versions of characters in the game. They are received at random, but only five figurines are possible to obtain at the beginning of the game. Defeating a boss unlocks six more figurines, and completing every level of [[Secret Seclusion]] unlocks the [[Professor Chops]] figurine.
{{br}}

==Dioramas==
[[File:Dioramas.jpg|thumb|200px]]
The diorama gallery comprises elaborate models that represent the six main worlds of the game. They feature [[Donkey Kong]] and his pals, depicted in numerous poses and instances, often facing the dangers of one world. A diorama is unlocked after defeating the boss of its represented world. Like figurines, dioramas can be rotated and zoomed in or out in the gallery.

==Images==
[[File:Images.jpg|left|thumb|200px]]
Many pieces of concept artwork depicting used and unused ideas are available in the game, most of which can be gradually unlocked in the Image Gallery by collecting [[Puzzle Piece (Donkey Kong Country series)|Puzzle Pieces]]. Certain images are only unlocked after beating the game on [[Hard Mode]], and are the sole reward for completing this task. The Image Gallery consists of eight sub-galleries, each entirely dedicated to a world of the game, except for the seventh and eighth sub-galleries which house general concepts. Unlike in ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'', images are not given titles.

The following table lists every piece of concept artwork found in the game, as well as a description and the condition to unlock it. The color assigned to an image indicates to what extent the idea or ideas depicted in the image were used for the final game: <span style="color:green">'''green'''</span> for ideas used entirely, <span style="color:#DAA520">'''yellow'''</span> for ideas used partially, and <span style="color:red">'''red'''</span> for completely unused ideas.

| style="background:#FBFF83" |Here, it is shown that at least [[Donkey Kong]] and [[Diddy Kong]], together with [[DK's Tree House|their treehouse]], would have been flung on the coast of Lost Mangroves. Washed ashore, the Kongs watch in awe as two unseen figures, whose shadows are projected on sand, approach them. In the final game, the Kongs wind up into a dilapidated plane in the treetops, the treehouse having remained on [[Donkey Kong Island]].

| style="background:#FBFF83" |Sketch for a water-coveying trunk and an obstacle. According to a note found beside, the obstacle consists of a broken plane carcass connected with a rope to a big propeller. The Kongs are able to stay on the carcass, but as water falls down on the propeller, it spins and moves the carcass closer to it. The Kongs should "jump before getting sliced". No such contraption appears in the final game, but there are water mills in [[Canopy Chaos]] that move giant platforms from side to side, driving them into rotating propellers.

|-
| align="center" style="background:#FBFF83" |[[File:LostMangroves art4.png|360px]]
| style="background:#FBFF83" |A different vision of the Lost Mangroves island. The island was originally depicted as having a large tree trunk in the middle, with a waterfall coming from it into a lagoon beneath. A group of flamingos can be seen relaxing into the lagoon. The shoreline on the left side of the island is littered with shipwrecks, and the wooden hulls tangled in the trees from the second artwork can be seen further behind. On the right side, there is a Mine Cart railtrack weaving through broken planes and wooden logs, heading right onto what appears to be an early Snowmad ship. This ship holds a half-pipe arena, similar to the one found in [[Pompy|Big Top Bop]], the boss level of Lost Mangroves in the final game. This suggests that the battle against Pompy was intended, at least by the artist, to take place on a ship instead of a circus.

The artwork is faithful to the final version for presenting numerous wreckages, as well as featuring a minecart area before the boss battle.

| style="background:#FBFF83" |Probably an early idea for [[Windmill Hills]]. It is set in an alpine landscape with a windmill peering from behind a rocky cliff. There are rope cables transporting bales of hay. These would have been used as platforms, as Donkey Kong and [[Cranky Kong]] are being ferried by one of them in the picture.

|-
| align="center" style="background:#FBFF83" |[[File:AutumnHeights art2.png|360px]]
| style="background:#FBFF83" |Side overview of an autumnal level, possibly a lighter version of [[Horn Top Hop]]. Donkey Kong is seen resting on a bed of leaves next to some oval huts, which do not appear in the final game.

|-
| align="center" style="background:#FBFF83" |[[File:AutumnHeights art3.png|360px]]
| style="background:#FBFF83" |An enormous pine tree, decorated with bird houses, candelabrums, globes, and an alphorn. This tree was probably meant to be an early [[Hootz]] residence or village, and is reminiscent of [[Skowl|Mountaintop Tussle]], where the battle against Skowl, the Startling, takes place.

|-
| align="center" style="background:#FBFF83" |[[File:AutumnHeights art4.png|360px]]
| style="background:#FBFF83" |Donkey Kong is shown riding a Mine Cart during a rainstorm, jumping from one log of wood to another, the logs being carried by a water slide. This most probably stands as the concept for [[Sawmill Thrill]].
| align="center" style="background:#FBFF83" |Collecting all Puzzle Pieces in [[Sawmill Thrill]]
|-
| align="center" style="background:#FF8383" |[[File:AutumnHeights art5.png|360px]]
| style="background:#FF8383" |Concept for a wheel with beavers, which did not make the cut. Nothing else appears in the artwork. These beavers do not seem to be [[Gnawty|Gnawties]], a beaver species present in other ''[[Donkey Kong (series)|Donkey Kong]]'' games.
| align="center" style="background:#FF8383" |Collecting all Puzzle Pieces in [[Alpine Incline]]
|-
| align="center" style="background:#FBFF83" |[[File:AutumnHeights art6.png|360px]]
| style="background:#FBFF83" |A basic representation of [[Autumn Heights]]. The mountains are entirely surrounded by autumnal woods and two windmills in a corner. Midway on the mountains, a watermill stands between some pines on a cliff. Beyond a large cloud, two owl visages are carved in the summit, and a Swiss house rises aloft. An airship can be seen next to the cloud, although nothing like that can be seen in the final game.

| style="background:#FBFF83" |Scene of a desolate savannah territory, which is used as a theme throughout Bright Savannah. A lone, round hut sustained by stilts is built on a large rock in the middle. Pieces of cloth and other tribal accessories surround the hut; two heads resembling [[Tiki Goon]]s are seen in one corner of the giant rock. Some vultures rest on the hut and a tree branch grown from the rock.

|-

| style="background:#FF8383" |An African-looking landscape with a river flowing in the middle, flanked by baobabs and acacias. A path rises and ends abruptly at the edge of the river bed, but continues slightly downhill on the other side. The left side of the river seems to belong to a savannah, while the territory on the right resembles more of a desert, due to the smoother terrain. Two upright crocodiles, purposed enemies, are seen in the river, and a series of small elephants rest along the desert path. These elements do not appear in the game.

|-
| align="center" style="background:#FBFF83" |[[File:BrightSavannah art3.png|360px]]
| style="background:#FBFF83" |A scene with the Kongs riding [[Rambi the Rhinoceros]] through tall grass. While Rambi does appear in a level of Bright Savannah, [[Frantic Fields]], the weather in the picture looks tranquil rather than stormy as in said level.
| align="center" style="background:#FBFF83" |Collecting all Puzzle Pieces in [[Frantic Fields]]
|-
| align="center" style="background:#FF8383" |[[File:BrightSavannah art4.png|360px]]
| style="background:#FF8383" |Concept for a silhouetted stage in Bright Savannah, which does not exist in the game. DK and Diddy run through a shaded field with young acacia trees. In the background, there is a vast plain surrounded by plateaus, with a lake covering a large part of it.
| align="center" style="background:#FF8383" |Collecting all Puzzle Pieces in [[Scorch 'n' Torch]]
|-
| align="center" style="background:#FBFF83" |[[File:BrightSavannah art5.png|360px]]
| style="background:#FBFF83" |An area with baobabs, acacia and other plants, irrigated by a river. Donkey Kong is platforming on treetops while Diddy skips on hippopotami peering from the river. These resemble [[Bopapodamus]]es from ''[[Donkey Kong Country Returns]]'', and it is possible they would have functioned like red [[Krockhead]]s from ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]''.

|-
| align="center" style="background:#FF8383" |[[File:BrightSavannah art6.png|360px]]
| style="background:#FF8383" |Two images displaying a completely unused mechanic: the first picture shows Donkey Kong standing on a cliff, closely surrounded by a group of {{wp|Kiwi}}-like birds. The second picture shows him using one of these birds to carefully float down a bramble ravine.
| align="center" style="background:#FF8383" |Collecting all Puzzle Pieces in [[Cannon Canyon]]
|-
| align="center" style="background:#FF8383" |[[File:BrightSavannah art7.png|360px]]
| style="background:#FF8383" |Sketch of Donkey Kong gazing at the obstacles ahead: a [[Papa Painguin]] holding its spear from a window, a spiky roller in the lower-right corner, and, above, a gigantic octopus (possibly [[Squiddicus]]) peeking a tentacle with a club from behind some bars. A wooden platform linked to a chain appears in the middle, and part of a mill wheel can be seen lower to the left. The whole scene appears to take place in a heavily guarded, mechanized area. In the game itself, [[Twilight Terror]] and [[Rickety Rafters]] contain various mechanisms, but few of them resemble the specific elements in the sketch.
| align="center" style="background:#FF8383" |Collecting all Puzzle Pieces in [[Rickety Rafters]]
|-
| align="center" style="background:#FBFF83" |[[File:BrightSavannah art8.png|360px]]
| style="background:#FBFF83" |Early visualization of [[Bramble Scramble (Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze)|Bramble Scramble]]. Aside from its main focus, the brambles, it is also faithful to the final version for being set in a steep canyon with various rock columns. However, in the picture, the brambles are green instead of red, and are weaving through a village of red anthill-like huts, which do not appear in the game.

| style="background:#DAF7A6" |Donkey Kong carefully stepping into the sea. Sea life, including schools of tropical fish and forests of seaweed, appear underwater. A few small islands can be seen towards the horizon on an almost clear sky.

|-
| align="center" style="background:#FF8383" |[[File:SeaBreezeCove art2.png|360px]]
| style="background:#FF8383" |An image composed of smaller black-and-white artworks depicting unused concepts and sceneries. Donkey and Diddy Kong are often shown standing on the ground as on dry land, although the motion of their surroundings suggests an underwater environment.

Clockwise from top-left, the first artwork shows silhouettes of DK and Diddy exploring the seabed through transparent underwater tubes, with kelp wrapped around these and a few sharks swimming in the background. In the second artwork, the Kongs are caught in a vortex of rising bubbles. In the following artwork, the characters are obscured by a large colony of sea anemones, in an area with ammonite fossils encrusted in limestone formations. The next artwork shows the characters navigating ferris wheels with a curved, spiralled design reminiscent of ammonite shells; the heads of two gigantic eel-like monsters are seen at the bottom. The last artwork renders a habitat consisting of numerous dome aquariums populated by menacing fish; the Kongs are on dry land, gazing at the aquariums in the background.

| style="background:#DAF7A6" |A gloomy, deep-sea scenery filled with luminescent jellyfish and other assorted creatures. Shadows of DK, Diddy, and other frontground elements are imposed on the scenery. The artwork was likely the basis of [[Amiss Abyss]].

| align="center" style="background:#FF8383" |[[File:SeaBreezeCove art5.png|360px]]
| style="background:#FF8383" |DK using a plug to uncover the ruins of a submerged city. The city is based on ancient Roman architecture and consists of two temples and a dome. A mechanism of gigantic gears helps these constructions rise above the water. The buildings are populated by corals, clams and seaweed. A hill landscape can be seen behind the city ruins. This concept is not used in any levels of the game.

|-
| align="center" style="background:#FF8383" |[[File:SeaBreezeCove art6.png|360px]]
| style="background:#FF8383" |Side view of Donkey Kong platforming in and above water; none of the concepts present in the image, aside from swimming, are used in the game. Firstly, DK is pushed out of the water by a springing eel, above a few seagulls and a giant rock pillar with a spiky top. Back underwater, there are a few krill clouds followed by a dense kelp area. DK is seen again swimming towards a dragnet, carried by a Viking ship. It is stated through notes in the picture that the dragnet is risen and lowered by the ship and that it should be avoided, but there is nothing to specify how the krill clouds or the kelp forest would have affected gameplay.

| align="center" style="background:#DAF7A6" |[[File:SeaBreezeCove art7.png|360px]]
| style="background:#DAF7A6" |A rumbling statue, similar to the ones seen in [[Rockin' Relics]] and the basis of those.<ref>The artwork was created by Toph Gorham, who worked closely with another artist at [[Retro Studios]], Eric Kozlowsky, to come up with a look for the ancient statues seen throughout [[Sea Breeze Cove]], as Eric himself states [http://landofkoz.blogspot.ro/2014/02/its-on-like-kong.html on his blog].</ref> It is activated by electricity and scares a fish away. Its body is composed of three round slabs under a head with a small likeness to {{wp|Dogū}} figurines.

| style="background:#FF8383" |Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong explore a calcareous zone on dry land. The environment is colorful, spanning tints of blue and violet. In the game, no such environment is traversed or seen, although the artwork might have only been meant to emphasize or inspire the submarine aspect and colors of Sea Breeze Cove.

| style="background:#DAF7A6" |DK in front of a timbered fruit-processing plant, which is a basis for the world's most common setting. It is composed of numerous tanks resembling barrels painted in various shades and tints of green. Many screws and valves in the construction resemble pig snouts; as it can be seen in the following artworks, anthropomorphic pigs, similar to [[Professor Chops]], were meant to populate and work on the island. An extended version of the artwork, though lacking the snout-like designs and the various colors on the plant, can be seen [[Media:Toph Gorham Concept Art 08 WoodFruitMachine.jpg|here]].

| style="background:#FBFF83" |Sketch of DK riding a [[Rocket Barrel]] through a run-down factory in the jungle, filled with giant fruit carried by elevators on chains. The fruit appear to be passed through some liquid flows, coming from wooden pipes at the top. Trails of bananas mark the way between obstacles. Although not many elements seen in the sketch are used in the game itself, the concept of a Rocket Barrel level in Juicy Jungle is used for the level [[Reckless Ride]].

| style="background:#FBFF83" |Another sketch capturing the jungle factory setting. Multiple pigs are seen working to process giant fruit coming on wooden gutters. Their actions are: powering mills, pushing fruit forward, and cutting them. The pig at the top left corner, who maneuvers a saw with a lever, appears to be harassed by a [[Hootz]]. The artwork is cropped from a [[Media:Jay-epperson-dkc-tf-jj-03.jpg|larger image]].

In the game itself, the factory of Juicy Jungle is entirely automated, and no pigs are seen throughout, except for [[Professor Chops]].

| style="background:#FF8383" |A group of four pigs harvest a giant pumpkin-like fruit from a vine, using a saw to cut its stem, some string to sustain it, and a cart to transport it on rails. The scene takes place above a body of water surrounded by sown fields. It is one of the two artworks to show that Juicy Jungle was originally conceived as a farmland, rather than a jungle.

|-
| align="center" style="background:#FBFF83" |[[File:JuicyJungle art6.png|360px]]
| style="background:#FBFF83" |An early look of Juicy Jungle; this is the second artwork to show the island as a farmland instead of jungle, although the factory setting is kept. Basic stages of processing and production are depicted in the artwork. The largest rock on the island is home to some crop fields; starting from here, juice and fruit slices are dropped into a large funnel house, then transported into a processing plant emitting fumes. The products are then being conveyed by a looped gutter inside a large transparent bowl. The island and factory are surrounded by numerous pear-shaped huts built on stilts, presumably the homes of the pigs seen in earlier artworks.

Donkey Kong, Dixie Kong and Professor Chops stand close to a house with a balcony and a passage underneath. Many stairways and passages weave between houses, and two pigs are seen conversing on a balustrade. A seaside cliff with houses in the far background peeks between two buildings, further showing the similarity of this place with Greek landscapes. In the game, there is no trace of such town or village.

A few wooden posts and a frame draped by a Viking veil, as well as some straggly studs acting as fence, mark the area. Two Snowmad chalets, similar to the ones found in [[Bright Savannah]], are built atop brick towers behind the Waldough. The shore stretches towards the horizon and blurs slightly under the dark clouds, as a snowstorm with windy weather prevails in the scene, maintaining a glacial atmosphere, along with palm trees and ridges that are burdened by snow. A few chunks of ice float in the sea nearby.

| style="background:#FF8383" |A Snowmad megastructure, likely intended for decoration. It consists of a ship-like frame with shield adornments and two wooden dragon heads arranged in an X cross. The structure is sustained by a wall fence underneath. Nothing identical or similar to this construction is incorporated in the game.

At its base lies a totem-like bird figure, with a candle inside its "mouth" to serve as a lamp. This element is also one of the Snowmad hallmarks.

One is shown using its weight to shove ice blocks into an unseen mechanism, producing minced ice through some tubes. Another bounces on a pump to create snow in a similar fashion. No such concepts are used in the final version of the game.

[[Waldough]]s and their relatives from the game are close to what the artwork depicts, but the names in the drawing are not used for any characters existing in the game itself. The sketch introduces the following: "Sven the Fisheater", a character wielding a quiver of fish on his back and a possible precursor of [[Chum Chucker Charlie]]; "Olaf the Forgetful", a pelt-clad enemy in a ship-like vehicle, with no obvious equivalent in the actual game; "Lars the Immovable", an armored walrus and an early version of [[Walbrick]]; and "Krob the Konqueror", an enemy wearing a bib around its neck and wielding a spear with a crab on its head, also lacking an equivalent in the final game.

It depicts Donkey Kong on one side preparing to toss a snowball at some Snowmads taking cover in a fortress on the other side, responding with snowball counterattacks. The concept of a snowball fight is not used in the game, although the [[Media:DKIslandDiorama.jpg|Donkey Kong Island diorama]] shows the Kongs engaged in a snowball battle with some Snowmads.

Aside from the owl enemy with a horned helmet and a bushy mustache, located between the [[Hootz]] and the [[Hot Hootz]] on the first row, all other characters portrayed in the artwork appear in some form in the game. Notable differences from their final designs are seen on the Hootz, [[Tuffton]], [[Blue Hootz]], [[Waldough]], and [[Walnut]]. The Hootz is indigo instead of brown. The Tuffton wears a much tighter helmet with horns, in addition to sporting a different outfit and look from that of the [[Puffton]], its relative. The Blue Hootz appears to have larger wings and a more spacious, hornless helmet. The Waldough displays a blue snowflake symbol over its belly, which is absent during the game. Lastly, the Walnut has a different color &ndash; indigo instead of beige.

| style="background:#FBFF83" |Three versions of an illustration with Donkey Kong crossing some grassy, floating islands above the clouds and the ocean, in an ethereal setting reminiscent of [[Secret Seclusion]]. Rocks and stones around the passage are curved, sleek-looking, and are carved with ancient runes.

The first version of the artwork takes place under a clear sky during daytime; flower petals are being carried by the wind. The second artwork depicts a more foggy atmosphere. The third version is a nighttime scene, illuminated by the runes in the stones and an {{wp|aurora}} furrowing the sky.

The surface of the moon world is chipped by numerous fault mountains and craters, similar to the real world {{wp|Moon}}, and some levitating platforms can be seen in the background. No atmosphere is present in this moon world, making stars and a much closer celestial object visible in the sky. The image comes with sketches of the overall look of the moon world and its corresponding level node on the map (a fuming meteor crashed into a crater). This concept, or the concept of a level taking place outside Donkey Kong's planet, is not used in the game.

Apart from the statue's island being considerably larger, the artwork is faithful to its final version for including three smaller islands surrounding the island in the middle, each being a level themed around levitating platforms, [[Mine Cart|Mine Cart]]/[[Rocket Barrel]] rides, and crashed planes, respectively.

| style="background:#FF8383" |Concept of an enchanted forest, which is inexistent in the final game. Here, trees are sinister and branch into what resemble hands with claws. Donkey Kong is seen standing between two areas; the path behind him is engulfed in light coming through the canopy, while the area beyond is dark and gloomy. Several colorful spirits rise from a pit, and two figures can be seen in the tree branches above, lurking in the shadows.
|-
| align="center" style="background:#FF8383" |[[File:SecretSeclusion art7.png|360px]]
| style="background:#FF8383" |A grim swampland, over which Donkey Kong is seen gliding with a puffy plant. The place is teeming with odd vegetation and pungent waters, imbuing the place with greenish thick fumes. Two obscured signs on the right, each showing a dead rodent, suggest the waters are toxic. A crammed stilt village is built over the swampland, in which houses are made out of tin and wood and show signs of rust and negligence. A light signal is placed on a wire between the rooftops, suggesting the village is also a canal for navigation.

Nothing similar to this world appears in the game.
|-

| style="background:#FF8383" |Donkey Kong facing a much larger enemy inside what looks like a rudimentary storage kitchen, preserving the atmosphere of the previous artwork. The place has a row of circular windows peering into dense vegetation, and stows a boiling cookpot in the middle, several barrels and crates filled with fruit, and two fish hung in the upper right corner. The enemy is an enormous caterpillar in Viking and cook attire, carrying a bloated segment with spikes. Due to its imposing stature and surroundings, it is likely that the giant caterpillar enemy would have been the boss of the swampland world.
|-
| align="center" style="background:#FBFF83" |[[File:SecretSeclusion art9.png|360px]]
| style="background:#FBFF83" |An early look of Punch Bowl, the boss level of [[Juicy Jungle]]. DK drops onto an arena where a large polar bear, [[Bashmaster]], awaits him to fight, holding an ice block with an [[Heart (item)|item]] inside. The battle arena is a frozen slice of fruit floating in the middle of an orange juice pond, and is tilted under Bashmaster's weight. It is surrounded by tiered floors crowded by penguins, which attend the battle and throw ice blocks on the arena.

In the game, Bashmaster is battled in a similar setting, although with differences from the concept artwork. In the final version, the arena itself is a simple chunk of ice floating on a purple pond. The surrounding spectators are indeed penguins – [[Tucks]]es – but they do not help Bashmaster fight in any way, as he produces ice blocks himself.

| style="background:#FBFF83" |Concept artwork of Big Top Bop, the boss level of the [[Lost Mangroves]], where DK faces [[Pompy]] on a half pipe arena. The circus setting, the hanging lights above, the spectating penguins and the large plane wreck in the background, all of which appear in the final version of the level, are also seen in this artwork. A notable difference in the artwork is that [[Archy]]-looking penguins, holding up swim tubes, guard the flanks of the arena, whereas in the game, [[Walbrick]]s are given this role.
