Alright, so after looking at the "
Things you don't think you'll ever see in a TAS" thread, I noticed one of Bisqwit's posts. Basically he said he wouldn't expect for a hammer to be used in DK.
and from this I remembered something that might work to save time in the TAS (Using a hammer).
I'm not sure if this works, but from what I remember it should.
On the rivets stage:
Get a yellow rivet, grab a hammer and drop through the new hole you created. If you hit an enemy at the same time you touch the ground on the level or two below you, you don't die. This may or may not work, but I seem to remember this happening once. Also, if this worked it should definitely save time by just climbing up the left side, getting all the rivets, going to the right side, getting a hammer and dropping down to all the lower rivets on the right side (well, it would require quite a bit of enemy manipulation I guess if it works).
