According to Tropical Freeze's creative director Vince Joly, the development team had seriously considered including Enguarde the swordfish from prior Donkey Kong Country titles as a ridable animal buddy, but ultimately dropped him to focus more on the playable Kong characters.
"We were thinking that bringing back the familiarity that players experienced in Donkey Kong Country Returns would be a good way for us to further strengthen their love for these characters. We felt this was the right choice over adding different buddies in their stead, and we believed the introduction of the other Kongs filled the need for expanding the character lineup and adding new player mechanics. However, we would have loved to have introduced some new animal buddies. Like Enguarde, for instance, who did come close to being added."
