'''''Kirby: Triple Deluxe''''' is a game released for the [[Nintendo 3DS]] in 2014 and serves as the tenth main series ''[[Kirby (series)|Kirby]]'' game (not including remakes). It is a 2.5-D platformer with a special mechanic that allows [[Kirby]] and other characters to change to and interact with different planes, thus adding limited three-dimensional interactivity to the gameplay. In addition, the game makes use of the 3DS's built-in motion controls for certain gameplay elements, including [[tilt bowl]]s, [[3D Tilt Missile]]s, and [[Tilt Gondola]]s. Finally, the game marks the debut (and only) appearance of the [[Hypernova]] ability, which drastically enhances the power and reach of Kirby's signature [[inhale]].


This title also heavily features [[King Dedede]], giving him his own [[Dedede's Drum Dash|Sub-Game]] and [[Dededetour!|Extra Mode]], as well as involving him prominently in the main story.

The main [[Story Mode|story]] of ''Kirby: Triple Deluxe'' takes place in the sky-bound kingdom of [[Floralia]]. Kirby is brought up to this kingdom when a giant plant called the [[Dreamstalk]] lifts [[Kirby's House|his house]] into the air. [[Castle Dedede]] is also lifted up, from which a strange arachnid mage named [[Taranza]] is seen kidnapping [[King Dedede|its king]]. Kirby gives chase after them through the six major islands of Floralia, dealing with [[Boss|many large enemies]] which Taranza summons or aggravates to slow Kirby down. As Kirby ascends, he collects [[Sun Stone]]s to grow the Dreamstalk further, giving him a bridge to each island in turn. He also encounters a number of [[Miracle Fruit]]s growing from the Dreamstalk, which grant him the powerful [[Hypernova]] ability when consumed. On the highest island — [[Royal Road]] — Kirby finds and frees a number of imprisoned flower sprites who are known as the [[People of the Sky]].
The main Story Mode of ''Kirby: Triple Deluxe'' takes place in the sky-bound kingdom of [[Floralia]]. Kirby is brought up to this kingdom when a giant plant called the [[Dreamstalk]] lifts [[Kirby's House|his house]] into the air. [[Mt. Dedede|Castle Dedede]] is also lifted up, from which a strange arachnid mage named [[Taranza]] is seen kidnapping [[King Dedede|its king]]. Kirby gives chase after them through the six major islands of Floralia, dealing with [[Boss|many large enemies]] which Taranza summons or aggravates to slow Kirby down. As Kirby ascends, he collects [[Sun Stone]]s to grow the Dreamstalk further, giving him a bridge to each island in turn. He also encounters a number of [[Miracle Fruit]] which grant him the powerful [[Hypernova]] ability when consumed. At the highest island - [[Royal Road]] - Kirby finds and frees a number of imprisoned flower sprites who are known as the [[People of the Sky]].


Once Kirby finally catches up to Taranza at the palace atop Royal Road, the arachnid mage explains how it was his objective to capture the hero of [[Dream Land]] in order to stop him messing up his and his [[Queen Sectonia|queen]]'s plans for domination. He then uses his magic to take control of King Dedede and have him fight Kirby while wearing [[Masked Dedede|a familiar mask]]. Kirby defeats Dedede and breaks the spell, making it clear who the real hero of Dream Land actually is. At this realization, Taranza calls upon Queen Sectonia to save him, but the furious queen instead swats him away for his failures. From there, Kirby and the queen do battle.
Once Kirby finally catches up to Taranza at the palace atop Royal Road, the arachnid mage explains how it was his objective to capture the so-called "hero of [[Dream Land]]" in order to stop him from interfering with his [[Queen Sectonia|queen]]'s plans for domination. He then uses his magic to take control of King Dedede and have him fight Kirby while wearing [[Masked Dedede|a familiar mask]]. Kirby defeats Dedede and breaks the spell, making it clear who the real hero of Dream Land actually is. At this realization, Taranza panics and calls upon Queen Sectonia to save him, but the furious queen instead swats him away for his failures. From there, Kirby and the queen do battle.


Queen Sectonia is overpowered by Kirby, and forced to retreat, using her magic to merge with the [[Dreamstalk]], thus beginning the process of strangling Floralia and the rest of planet [[Popstar]] of all its energy. King Dedede regains consciousness, and with the help of the freed People of the Sky, launches Kirby toward the main stalk of the new [[Flowered Queen Sectonia]]. They fight until the sun comes up, but just as Kirby is about to seize victory, the Queen ensnares him with a vine and begins to squeeze him. At this, King Dedede and Taranza (with a change of heart) come to Kirby's rescue, freeing him and giving him one more [[Miracle Fruit]] to use against the queen. Kirby finishes off Queen Sectonia by inhaling her giant laser blast, and spitting it back out at her, destroying her utterly. This done, Kirby is ferried back home by the People of the Sky, and the Dreamstalk is purified, going into full bloom and becoming a permanent fixture of Dream Land.
Queen Sectonia is overpowered by Kirby, but she refuses to accept defeat. Instead, she uses her magic to merge with the [[Dreamstalk]], and begins to drain both Floralia and planet [[Popstar]] of all their energy. King Dedede regains consciousness, and with the help of the freed People of the Sky, launches Kirby toward the main stalk of the now-[[Flowered Sectonia]]. They fight until the sun comes up, but just as Kirby is about to seize victory, the queen ensnares him with a vine. In the nick of time, Taranza — having realized the error of his ways — carries in Dedede to rescue Kirby, and then tosses one last Miracle Fruit at the hero. Hypernova Kirby finishes off Flowered Sectonia by inhaling her giant laser blast and spitting it back out at her, destroying her utterly. This done, Taranza and the People of the Sky return Kirby and Dedede to the lower world, and the Dreamstalk is purified, going into full bloom and becoming a permanent fixture of Dream Land.

[[File:Goal Game TD.jpg|thumb|right|250px|The Goal Game.]]
[[File:KTD Miiverse - Hypernova Inhale.jpg|thumb|right|250px|One of the core features of ''Kirby: Triple Deluxe'' is Kirby's brand-new [[Hypernova]] ability, which significantly powers up his [[inhale]], allowing him to swallow just about anything.]]
This game plays very similarly to its predecessor, ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]''. It even has several of the same items, such as the [[Key]]. It introduces a new move, the Dodge. This is activated by pressing left or right while using the [[Guard]], or pressing L or R in midair to perform an Air Dodge. This move isn't usually necessary in the Main Game, and is only truly useful in [[Kirby Fighters]]. However, the main new gameplay element is the foreground and background.
This game plays very similarly to its predecessor, ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]''. It even has several of the same [[Copy Ability|Copy Abilities]] and items, such as the [[Key]]. However, the main new gameplay element is the divide between the foreground and the background.


In ''Kirby: Triple Deluxe'' Kirby is no longer limited to just one path. He is required to use special [[Warp Star|3-D Warpstars]] to move from the foreground to the background, and vice versa. While in one plane {{realMe}} can see items and enemies in the other. Sometimes Kirby even gains weapons that let him directly attack the enemies in the other plane, such as the [[3-D Laser Bar]], and the [[3-D Helmet Cannon]]. The enemies can do the same, with some enemies such as [[Sir Kibble]] and [[Spynum]] able to launch their projectiles into the other plane. Enemies such as [[Waddle Dee]] and [[Chip]] can jump from one plane to the other to ambush [[Kirby]]. There are also many obstacles that attack Kirby from the background or foreground, such as boulders, mineral pillars, trees, and springy hands. There are also several cases where Kirby may get launched forward and hit the screen, sliding downward afterwards. This doesn't necessarily cost Kirby a life, but it will always make him lose his [[Copy Ability]], if he had one.

The enemies can do the same, with some enemies such as [[Sir Kibble]] and [[Spynum]] able to launch their projectiles into the other plane. Enemies such as [[Waddle Dee]] and [[Chip]] can jump from one plane to the other to ambush Kirby.


The game contains many collectibles. A primary example are the [[Keychain]]s. They are 256 of these scattered throughout the levels. Each one depicts a pixelated sprite of an enemy, item, or character from the previous main path Kirby games (except ''[[Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards]]'', as the game uses 3D models). When you pick up a Keychain in one of the levels, the item on it will be revealed after the [[Goal Game]]. The image you get is random, and it is possible to get the same Keychain on an image twice or more. There are also Rare Golden Keychains. These are found in a fixed location, one in each level. They are not random. The other collectibles are the [[Sun Stone]]s, which serve a similar function to the [[Energy Sphere]]s from ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]''. There are a set amount of Sun Stones in each level and 100 available total. Most are hidden in secret rooms, some are in plain sight, others are hidden in chests. A certain amount of these are required to unlock the Boss Stage. If you collect all the Sun Stones in a level you will unlock a bonus EX level. These stages are slightly longer, but contain few Sun Stones, and end with a battle against a DX Mid-Boss. There are also Grand Sun Stones, that are obtained after defeating the boss of a level. These give access to the next level, and it is necessary to collect all five of them. If Kirby collects all 100 Sun Stones, he will be rewarded with a Rare [[Queen Sectonia]] Keychain.
There are also many obstacles that attack Kirby from the background or foreground, such as rolling boulders, falling pillars or trees, and extending [[Springy Hand]]s. In some instances, Kirby may get launched forward and hit the "screen", sliding downward afterward. This doesn't necessarily cost Kirby a life (as long as he is not low on stamina), but it will always make him lose his [[Copy Ability]] if he had one.


This game is the first to feature Gyro-Controls. This has {{realMe}} tilting the 3DS system to accomplish tasks. These may involve tilting a bowl of water, setting the direction for a cannon to fire, or traveling over a pit in a gondola, and are usually required to get a Keychain. There is also a [[Extra Game|Game Mode]] that allows the player to play as King Dedede. His controls are also mostly the same as in Kirby's Return to Dream Land, but now he can create a shock-wave with his hammer at full health, and launch a cutting beam from his hammer when charged.
Aside from this, the game introduces a new standard move, the [[Dodge]]. This is activated by pressing any direction while using the [[Guard]], or pressing L or R in midair to perform an Air Dodge. While dodging, Kirby is completely invincible against enemy attacks for a brief moment. This is an especially handy technique in boss fights to avoid taking damage that the standard Guard would not block. However, it is not usually necessary to use in the Main Game; the move is more useful in [[The Arena]], [[The True Arena]], and [[Kirby Fighters]].


===Modes===
The game contains many collectibles. A primary example is [[Keychain]]s. There are 256 of these scattered throughout the levels. Each one depicts a pixelated sprite of a character or object from previous ''Kirby'' games. The specific Keychains that the player collected are not revealed until after the [[Goal Game]]. Keychains are randomly determined, and it is possible to get the same Keychain more than once. There are also Rare Keychains, which are golden. These are found in fixed locations, one in each stage. They are not random; each stage has its own unique Rare Keychain that usually depicts a more significant character or object than the standard Keychains.
'''Story Mode:''' Play as Kirby in the main story.


'''[[Kirby Fighters]]:''' Fight using multiple [[Copy Abilities]] against other Kirbys on multiple stages. This is similar to [[Super Smash Bros.]], though it utilizes a more traditional health system for its combatants.
The other main collectibles are the [[Sun Stone]]s, which serve a similar function to the [[Energy Sphere]]s from ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]''. There are a set amount of Sun Stones in each level and 100 available total. Most are hidden in secret rooms; some are in plain sight, others are hidden in chests. Kirby is required to collect a certain amount of them to access the boss of each level. If all of the Sun Stones in a level are collected, a bonus EX stage is unlocked. These stages are slightly longer and more difficult, contain few Sun Stones, and end with a battle against a DX Mid-Boss. There are also Grand Sun Stones, which are obtained after defeating the boss of a level. These give access to the next level, and it is necessary to collect all five of them. If Kirby collects all 100 Sun Stones, he will be rewarded with a Rare [[Queen Sectonia]] Keychain.


'''[[Dedede's Drum Dash]]:''' Play as [[King Dedede]] in a rhythm game in which the king bounces on drums.
This game makes moderate use of tilt-based motion controls, having the player tilt the Nintendo 3DS system to accomplish certain tasks. These may involve tilting a bowl of water, setting the direction for a [[Cannon#Tilt Cannon|Tilt Cannon]] to fire, or traveling over a pit in a [[Tilt Gondola]]. These tasks are usually optional, but may reward Kirby with a Keychain or Sun Stone.


'''[[The Arena#Triple Deluxe|The Arena]]:''' Play as Kirby and fight mid-bosses and bosses.
There is also an additional mode titled [[Dededetour!]] that allows the player to play as King Dedede. His controls are mostly the same as in ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land'' (and, consequently, the [[Hammer]] copy ability), but with some new upgrades. He can create a shockwave with his hammer at full health, akin to the [[Sword]] ability, and launch a cutting beam from his hammer when charged, akin to the new [[Archer]] ability. Dedede Hammer Flip and Hammer Twirl retain their previous ability to light things on fire, while Giant Dedede Swing now has wind properties that can put out flames; this allows Dedede to tackle most elemental puzzles that Kirby would require different abilities for.


'''[[The True Arena#Triple Deluxe|The True Arena]]:''' This is the harder version of "The Arena," with old bosses in DX forms as well as new bosses.
===Hypernova===
[[File:KTD_Hypernova.png|thumb|right|200px|Artwork of Hypernova Kirby.]]
{{main|Hypernova}}
Newly introduced in ''Kirby: Triple Deluxe'' is a special ability known as [[Hypernova]]. This ability is not obtained from any enemies and is instead acquired when Kirby touches a [[Miracle Fruit]]. Hypernova causes Kirby to shimmer in all colors of the rainbow and causes his mouth to glow white. He gains an extremely powerful [[inhale]] which can uproot and absorb things much more massive than Kirby himself. Kirby can use this ability to tear apart obstacles and move large objects, as well as inhale giant enemies. He can also move backward and forward while inhaling, but not when he has his mouth full. The Hypernova ability overrides any standard Copy Ability Kirby may have and will wear off once the stage is completed, returning Kirby's original ability to him. It cannot be discarded before this point unless the player quits the stage early.


'''[[DededeTour!]]:''' Play through all six Story Mode levels as [[King Dedede]] in one long time attack run, defeating harder bosses in the process.

|{{center|[[File:KTD Kirby artwork.png|125px]]<br>'''[[Kirby]]'''}}
|Kirby, pink and puffy as ever, takes on the world of [[Floralia]] with his usual set of skills and determination. After having his home uprooted by the Dreamstalk and seeing King Dedede kidnapped by a strange villain, Kirby gives chase, encountering many obstacles along the way but also making use of the new [[Hypernova]] power to suck up the more stubborn roadblocks. He eventually catches up with Dedede's kidnapper and proceeds to free him along with the imprisoned People of the Sky, and with their help, he defeats the vain and power-mad Queen Sectonia to free the kingdom of Floralia and save Dream Land as well.
|-
|{{center|[[File:King Dedede 7.png|125px]]<br>'''[[King Dedede]]'''}}
|Although he spends most of the story unconscious after being kidnapped by Taranza, King Dedede plays a pivotal role helping Kirby defeat Queen Sectonia after he is freed from Taranza's puppetry: both manning the [[cannon]] that fires Kirby into the final confrontation and using his hammer to free Kirby from Flowered Sectonia's snare. In [[Dededetour!]], King Dedede takes the leading role, and defeats all of the villains himself, including a surprise enemy at the very end.
|-
|{{center|[[File:KTD 3D Cannon intro.png|125px]]<br>'''[[People of the Sky]]'''}}
|Residents of Floralia who resemble flowers and can fly through the air. They are imprisoned shortly after Queen Sectonia comes to power, and were responsible for sending down the seed of the Dreamstalk to call forth a hero from Dream Land to help them. When Kirby reaches [[Royal Road]], he frees the People of the Sky, and they help him move forward in various ways, then show up to help Kirby and Dedede defeat Flowered Sectonia.

|A spider-like mage who is responsible for kidnapping King Dedede at the start of the game, assuming him to be the hero of Dream Land which the People of the Sky tried to call for. He tries to thwart Kirby's progress several times by throwing bosses at him, but Kirby eventually catches up and foils his attempt to puppet King Dedede against him. When Taranza realized he got the wrong hero, he tries to call for the aid of his Queen Sectonia, but she swats him away for his failures. When Taranza later sees what Queen Sectonia has become, he switches sides and helps Dedede save Kirby.

===List of Tracks in ''Kirby: Triple Deluxe Soundtrack'' CD===

The English soundtrack CD is titled '''''Kirby: Triple Deluxe Soundtrack''''', available through Club Nintendo in Europe and Australia for the exchange of 2000 stars. Same with the Japanese release, however, the CD only includes 46 tracks from the game and 3 bonus tracks.
! HP
 
! Defense Modifier
''Kirby: Triple Deluxe'' is one of the few games in the series that has its original soundtrack CD released in English. (Many ''Kirby'' original soundtracks are released in Japan only and thus don't have official English track titles.)

==Trivia==
[[File:K30A tagline 12.png|thumb|200px|This particular piece of art from the Kirby 30th Anniversary set references the first letters of each level in ''Kirby: Triple Deluxe''.]]
*The title of ''Kirby: Triple Deluxe'' has multiple meanings. Initially, the developers wished to have a title that would convey the idea of an adventure on floating islands, but instead decided on the final title due to it being short and catchy, easily understood worldwide, and emphasizing the game's use of the Nintendo 3DS's features. It can be compressed to "3D", which emphasizes the 3D elements of the game, as well as King Dedede's prominence ("Dedede" is three "D"s). It can also be read as "3DX", which incorporates "X" — 10 in Roman numbers — since this game is the tenth traditional ''Kirby'' platformer.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20160110174846/https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAAADVHj2Znm1dQ Archived Miiverse post celebrating ''Triple Deluxe''{{'}}s first anniversary]</ref> Lastly, it references the Japanese title of ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'', ''Kirby Super Deluxe''.
*The "FLOWERED" spelling used for the first letters of each level and in the ending cutscene is referenced in the Kirby 30th Anniversary artwork for tagline #12, where Kirby is wearing a flower reminiscent of the one on the Dreamstalk.
*The Japanese and European box arts have one of the cutter blades thrown by [[Sir Kibble]] and the [[thin floor]] at the bottom-right corner breaking out of the frame, while they are contained within the frame in the North American and Korean box arts. The North American box arts also do not have the cannonball fired by the [[Shotzo]], or even the Shotzo itself.
*This game was the first to have an on-screen [[Heads-up display|HUD]] break the [[fourth wall]] under specific circumstances: when [[Hypernova]] Kirby inhales a boss, its health bar "peels" off the screen before being inhaled alongside it.
*The Latin script logo for this game features the ''Kirby'' series logo in yellow with a blue outline, with the yellow part referencing the Hypernova ability, and said colors were used for Latin script logos of later mainline ''Kirby'' games. These two colors are the same used for the Japanese logos of the mainline games since ''Kirby Super Star'' (with the exception of ''Kirby: Squeak Squad''; ''Kirby & The Amazing Mirror'' uses the same colors, but fittingly reversed).

==Trivia==
{{spoilers}}
*If the first letter of each level is put together, it spells out FLOWERED ('''F'''ine Field, '''L'''ollipop Land, '''O'''ld Odyssey, '''W'''ild World, '''E'''ndless Explosions, '''R'''oyal Road, '''E'''ternal '''D'''reamland). This is a reference to the final boss, [[Queen Sectonia]], who becomes a giant flower after merging herself with the [[Dreamstalk]] (effectively becoming "FLOWERED"). This is similar to ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'', ''[[Kirby: Canvas Curse]]'' and ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]''.
*This game was first to have interactable onscreen HUD display: when [[Hypernova]] Kirby inhales a boss, its health gauge "peels" off before being inhaled when emptied; breaking the fourth wall.
