It's North America's time for 30 years of #DonkeyKongCountry This was the only box I did solo... Holding the bananas like that, Donkey doesn't realize the rest of the bunch will snap off leaving him holding 1 banana. Amateur.

This was the first time I studied every detail of a game's box. It mesmerized child me. So many flourishes that set the template for the Rare and Playtonic style. It was also a lovely way to communicate the COUNTRY over the Donkey Kong, and the team's dedication to building a believable game world!
Loved these kinds of renders, what software was it used to render the images?, or were they "composite images" rendered separately and then pieced together using other software?
Awesome!, and now i'm finding out they were the precursors to Maya, nice :]
Also, a bit unrelated, but i bet you could fry eggs on top of the workstations rendering that XD
This was the one and only game my mom would play with me as I was growing up. The way she would move the controller with the characters as if that would make them jump farther haha! One of my best memories.
A timeless classic, i can still remember opening up a SNES/DKC combo package for xmas just about 30 years ago and begging my grandpa to set it up as fast as possible so I could start right away
So THAT'S why there are lost bananas everywhere in 2 and 3 even though stolen bananas aren't part of the Kremlings' schemes in those games! DK's just really bad at gathering them!
