Red Feather

Red Feathers are a collectible in the Banjo-Kazooie series, serving multiple functions throughout the games. These feathers can be found in almost every level and are used to help Kazooie gain altitude when flying. Also, it is worth noting that taking off from the ground does not require any feathers, but they are necessary to maintain Kazooie’s flight. In addition to this, Kazooie can use Red Feathers to execute powerful maneuvers, such as the Beak Bomb while flying and the Talon Torpedo while swimming underwater with Banjo. However, each of these moves comes at a cost of red feathers, with the Beak Bomb requiring one feather and the Talon Torpedo needing five feathers. It is important to note that without any Red Feathers, Kazooie is unable to execute any of these moves. Despite this, the plentiful nature of Red Feathers throughout both games means that running out of Red Feathers is usually not a major problem. In the game Banjo-Kazooie, the protagonists can only carry up to fifteen Red Feathers at the start of the game. However, players can acquire the Redfeathers cheat by speaking to Cheato hidden in Gruntilda’s Lair, who can be found in the Lava room next to the lobby of Mad Monster Mansion. Entering this Cheato Code on floor inside the Sandcastle of the world Treasure Trove Cove permanently doubles the amount of Red Feathers that the protagonists can carry to a hundred. Interestingly, this Cheato Code has a carryover effect in Banjo-Tooie doubling the limit to an astonishing two-hundred Red Feathers. In Banjo-Kazooie Nuts & Bolts, players can find a Red Feather in the box of Banjo and Kazooie’s old techniques, which they receive at the end of the game. This serves as a nostalgic nod to the Red Feathers’ importance throughout the series, and players can collect it as a reminder of their past adventures. In conclusion, Red Feathers are a ubiquitous collectible in the series that players will encounter frequently and play a crucial role in helping Kazooie fly or use powerful maneuvers
