EDIT: I just tested it, the LOWEST POSSIBLE percentage (without hacking) is 21%. If you cheat, that is.
To get that you would have to:

Spoiler!

Take the first map warp that goes straight to Orangutan Gang in Vine Valley. You just press B as DK when he reaches the bend in the path between Jungle Hijinx and Ropey Rampage.

[nickp17]

wow, thanks.

[Qyzbud]

This kind of trivia will be good to put on DKC Atlas.

Heh, this was your first time beating K.Rool, I'd bet.

[nickp17]

Nah, I've beat this game a few times. Highest % is around 90 I do believe. I was just trying to run through it

My times are horrid

[Stone]

Every level gives you 1% and every bonusroom gives you 1% I think, just count the number of levels and add one 1% for beating K.Rool
With the famous warp glitch Simion32 mentioned you miss some % you'd normally get, of course.

That's not a CHEAT it's a GLITCH, to completely different things. But still.

How is warping a glitch?

[Simion32]

Those warps were not intentionally built into the game; therefore, they are glitches. Even though they actually work.

[Qyzbud]

Welcome to the DKC Atlas Forum. New users are urged to read the rules before posting.

As Simion said, the 'map screen warp' technique mentioned in this thread is indeed a glitch. It's an error in the game's design, rather than a 'secret'. It was corrected in more recent releases.

[Tompa]

One guy on Youtube said that it wasn't a glitch at first and said that RARE removed it for newer versions because people just skipped all levels instead of playing them, basically.

I don't believe that for a second.

[Qyzbud]

Sometimes the stories people make up to 'explain' things they have no clue about... are very foolish.

I *do* wonder why it didn't work in any of the Japanese versions of the game, though.

[Sana]

All right, I apologize. I assumed it was intended and therefore not a glitch. Obviously if it was unintended, and furthermore corrected in future versions of the game, it is a glitch.

[Qyzbud]

Sana, just so that you know; my above post was not directed at you at all. It was a generalised statement, but in this instance it was more or less aimed squarely at that YouTube fellow Tompa mentioned. You raised a valid question, and I would never rip into someone for asking such a question... it's just people who tell others rubbish and attempt to pass it off as fact. That's what gets to me.

You're probably aware of that already, but I wanted to make sure I was expressing my thoughts lucidly.

[Sana]

I suppose I should have quoted the post I was responding to. I didn't though, because I was just taking back what I said. I didn't figure your post was directed at me.

[DonkeyKong]

44% is my lowest

[Jomingo]

You are also FunkyKong aren't you? Aren't you?!?!

[DonkeyKong]

No jomingo I cant be Funky If Im talking to him

[gamer_boy997]

This kind of trivia will be good to put on DKC Atlas.

Of course, remember to put, "If you have 1.0/1.1 of the NA version, or 1.0/1.1 of the EU version..." and so on.

[FunkyKong]

I cant wait to try that warp trick!

[DK4Ever]

Well, I finished (Beat K. Rool) with 55% completion today. That's pretty good I think.

[NS Guy]

I got 40% on the GBA version. I guess you can get a lower % than in the SNES version, as the K-O-N-G letters, photos, and minigames add to your %. By the way, the photo of all the Kremlings is impossible not to get, because beating K. Rool gives it to you.

I saw a glitch in a speedrun were somebody went from a bonus in Orangutan Gang to Manic Miners.

[TheUltimateKoopa]

I hope I don't get in trouble for this but... please stop bumping 4 year old topics.

[Tompa]

Then I could just as well add in the glitch speedrun he was talking about: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJOgJQZv3DQ
Finishes the game with 7%, which is currently the lowest possible.

And a little fact that most people may not know: Bosses don't count towards 101%. The upcoming TAS I'm working on will skip 1-2 or bosses in it (Thanks to warp glitches).
