Gameplay Donkey Kong is a platform game that involves climbing and jumping to navigate levels and avoid obstacles. Key gameplay elements include: • Climbing: Players must climb ladders and jump over gaps to progress through each level. • Avoiding Obstacles: Donkey Kong throws barrels and other objects that Mario must avoid or jump over. There are also fireballs and other hazards that move across the platforms. • Hammer Power-Up: Players can temporarily gain a hammer, which allows Mario to smash barrels and enemies for a limited time. • Level Progression: The game consists of multiple levels, each with increasing difficulty. Completing all the levels leads to a loop, increasing the challenge each time.
