Mine Cart Carnage Shortcut
On the start of the Mine Cart Carnage level, instead of jumping into the barrel cannon jump over it. This may sound like suicide, but you will land in a warp barrel and be warped extremely close to the exit.
Winky's Walkway Shortcut
When you get Winky, stay on the ledge where you found the Winky box and jump to the LEFT. You will land in a warp barrel.
Stop Go Station Shortcut
When you enter the Stop Go Station level, go behind of where you entered the level to find a shortcut.

Complete the game with 100% then start a new game and select two player mode to access Hero Mode. You only play Diddy Kong and there are no Donkey Kong Barrels, and Checkpoints, making for a really hard game!
