Interactive objects[]

55?cb=20120317190109 Incomplete section

This section is incomplete. You can help by adding the missing info.

  • Flag pole - When the Climber makes it to this object and puts up the red flag, the player will start from here if a life is lost.
  • Big flag pole - The Climber must get to this and puts up the flag to finish the level.

Platforms[]

  • Bluish rock - The Climber can grab this with her grappling hook, and walk on it.
  • Black rock - The Climber can walk on it, but is not able to grab it with the hook.
  • Ice - Some rocks have icy platforms so when the Climber walks on it, she will have difficulty stopping.
  • Automatic lift - The lift will move on the slits in the wall. The Climber can jump on it, and grab it with their grappling gun.
  • Manual lift - The lift waits for the Climber to get onto it, and then it will start moving. But when the Climber jumps off, the lift goes backwards.
  • Switches - Used to change the direction of the automatic lifts.
  • Climbing mesh - The Climber can use her hook to grab onto it to continue to move up, but can't walk on it.
  • Pegs - Just like the climbing mesh, the Climber can use it to continue climbing up, but the pegs usually move around, making them tricky to grab on.
  • Buttons - The buttons for a level can be red or green. When it is red, the red platforms are activated. But using the grappling hook to touch the button can turn it green, deactivating the red platforms and activating the green ones.
  • Switchable platforms - The platforms are either red or green, and whichever one is active depends on the button's current colour.

Enemies[]

  • Antler apes - This enemy will walk with its hands, and when it comes to the edge of where it can walk, it will stand on its feet and growl before turning back around. Worth 250 points. Debuts in Level 1.1.

  • Small apes - Similar to the bat beasts, this enemy appears in caves. It walks very quickly back and forth, which which makes him a difficult target for the player. Debuts in Level 4.2.

Beta elements[]

Existing in the files of Frost Bite 2 is a button switch with a white button. It is not known what it was meant to be used for, as no white platform exists in the game.

Glitches[]

Invincibility glitch[]

A glitch that uncommonly happens during levels eight, nine, and ten. Sometimes (but not rarely), when the Climber loses all of her health, and loses her last life, the Climber will be in her frozen state, but still be able to move around. They will still be able to be damaged and killed, but will be able to respawn infinite times.

To get invincibility Eskimo should jump on Furry worms when they are expanded, but on spikes, not on middle. When you lost all lives you will be immortal.

This is very helpful during level 10, where the Climber has to be very fast and scale multiple walls of ice blocks that can instantly kill them if they happen to not be fast enough. Sometimes on the level walruses appear on, other effects may be caused. Icicles may sometimes be frozen in mid drop, and not harm the . This glitch occurs more often than any other glitch in the game.

Midair glitch[]

This a glitch that only occurs in level three. When the Climber is on a lift in the beginning, the lift on the right, if the Eskimo stays on the very edge when it is lifting her up and left, she will float in midair.

Ekimo

The Eskimo in midair

Stuck in the wall glitch[]

On level two at the very beginning, when the Climber moves to the right and clicks on the ground below, the Eskimo shall float through the hard rock.

Falling off from the screen glitch[]

On level eight, there is a spot which will cause instant game over if the Climber slips off the screen.

Immovable lift glitch[]
