Level 22 Killscreen

In Donkey Kong, there are levels. After you beat a certain amount of stages, you go up a level. Eventually, you'll reach level 22. This is Donkey Kong's killscreen. The way this works is that you only have about 4 ticks on the timer to beat the stage. There is a way to beat the killscreen, it's by using the glitch to climb up the broken ladder at the start to go up to the top of the stage. Then, on the second stage, you can do it as fast as possible to beat it quickly. You can do the ladder strategy again on the third level. On the fourth level, you can do the fast route to beat it quickly. On the fifth level, use the ladder glitch again. On the sixth level, you can't go any further. You've beaten the Donkey Kong Killscreen.
