Diddy Kong’s cartwheel attack useful for close attacks
Use Kong Pow with Diddy to turn all enemies on the screen into extra balloons
As previously mentioned, Dixie’s Kong Pow turns onscreen enemies into gold hearts
Dixie’s ponytail is like a propeller underwater for extra speed
Enemies will get tougher as you progress
Tucks (penguin-like enemies) start out with Donkey Kong being able to take them out by jumping on their heads or rolling into them
Later, they’ll have spears and helmets at their disposal, so you can only attack them from behind
Tucks will then come with double-sided spears and spiked helmets, so they must be stunned first before you can attack
6 islands
6-7 levels per island
Boss stage and a bonus level as well
Bonus level unlocks after collecting all KONG letters in each level
World 1: Lost Mangroves (rainforest, vine grabbing, zip-lining)
World 2: Autumn Heights (Bavarian-like mountain, mine carts, hot-air balloons, giant owls, jagged cliff faces)
World 3: Bright Savannah (tall grass, orange/brown colors, like an African safari, dodge brush fire and penguins with spears)
World 4: Sea Breeze Cove (blue harbors, sandy inlets, lots of swimming, dodge electric seaweed and manage air supply)
World 5: Juicy Jungle (tropical forest that produces a rare fruit, home to an elaborate processing plant, jump off jellies to reach new heights)
World 6: DK Island (Donkey Kong’s tree house has been frosted over, has homages to levels from Donkey Kong Country Returns)
Will always control Donkey Kong in single-player
Side characters add to Donkey Kong’s abilities
Subtle differences between the side characters
Can switch between side characters by breaking barrels in the levels
Icons on the barrels rotate slowly so that you can pick your partner
Offers challenging gameplay

The latest edition of the U.K Official Nintendo magazine (104) has some really interesting new information about DKCTF. For example each world has 3 secret levels instead of the original games one per world . Also the President and CEO of Retro says "As for Tropical Freeze, there are a few more things I feel we could have done with the animal buddies" which to me suggests that at least something has been done with them in Tropical Freeze.
So we are now looking at a game with around 60 levels in total (6 or 7 main with 3 secret ones) so similar if not larger than returns!
I would seriously reccomend that any DKCTF fan who lives in the U.K. gets the latest issue when it arrives in shops on 15th January as it reveals a fair few new bits about the game that I have not seen anywhere else and is an interesting read!
