• The game provides names for different parts of the level that are convenient when one is referring to them:
  • The Production Room is the tall room with many moving parts.
  • The Storage Room is the room where Chunky is held.
  • The Testing Room is the room with the tower of toy blocks.
  • The R&D area is the room with lava underneath a metal grating.
• The C-up glitch can be used to get through the hatch to the left of the entrance without hitting the switch. Video
• You can get to the upper level of the Production Room from the starting area as follows. Pound the switch near the entrance of the level to open the hatch. Go the "side" (formerly the top) of the hatch with Tiny. Backflip onto the slippery slope on the side of the hatch, let yourself slide off, jump back on, kick, jump through the ceiling, and Pony Tail Twirl over the wall. From there, simply walk to the Production Room. Video (#1)
  • After getting out of bounds as described above, you can walk to the gate leading to the Testing Room and jump behind it. The gate is solid from both sides. Video (#2)
• Lanky can reach the switch that frees Chunky without Orangstand by using the climb up slippery slopes trick. Video (#1)
  • He can also use the "wall stall" variation of the trick. Video (#1)
• DK can reach the platform with the power shed in the Storage Room without dropping down to it from the R&D area. Use the climb up slippery slopes trick to reach the switch that Lanky hits to free Chunky. Then do a kickjump combo to get to the platform with the shed. Video (#1)
  • DK can also use the "wall stall" method to reach the top of the slippery slope. Video (#2)
• Diddy can also reach the power shed platform without dropping down to it. The easiest way to do this is to backflip onto the edge of the door closest to Diddy's switch in the Storage Room. You will probably fall off, but hopefully you will be able to backflip in midair as if you were performing the trick to climb up slippery slopes. If so, backflip to the top of the door, then jump up to the switch. Video (#2)
  • Diddy can also use a moontail to reach the top of the door next to the power shed platform.
• Chunky can get his Golden Banana in the dark room connected to the Storage Room by grabbing onto the edge below the box and pulling himself up. Video (#2)
• Lanky can get to his bonus barrel in the Testing Room without Baboon Balloon. Jump on top of the nearby door, then high jump to the bonus barrel. Video (#2)
• You can get out of bounds by using the C-up glitch on the hole in the floor near the Battle Crown pad in the R&D room (not the one with the Battle Crown pad in it). Video
• Chunky can turn into Hunky Chunky before the fight with the giant toy monster starts if he is standing in the right place when the cutscene showing the monster assembling itself begins. The monster is invincible for a while, so Chunky has a chance to grab the bananas in the room as Hunky Chunky, who is much faster than regular Chunky. Video (#3)
• Diddy can climb the lower part of the Production Room without using the elevator platform activated by Lanky's switch. Jump on top of the sign near the path to the level's entrance and then backflip up onto the slippery slope. Use the climb up slippery slopes trick to get to flat ground. Video (#3)
• Chunky can reach the upper level of the Production Room as follows. First, climb to the tag barrel next to the upper warp 4 pad by using the above trick with Diddy. Tag Chunky and jump onto the middle platform in the set of three small moving platforms. Do a skid jump and jump to reach the next platform. Now do a skid jump and backflip and grab the ledge above you to reach the upper section. Video (#3)
• DK can get into the Strong Kong room without turning the power on as follows. First, climb to the tag barrel next to the upper warp 4 pad by using the above trick with Diddy. Tag DK and jump down onto the circular path just above the entrance to the Strong Kong room. Use the C-up glitch to get into the room. Video (#1)
