Poles (Cold Storage)

Poles are interactive objects in Cold Storage. The general appearance of a Pole is a rod with an arrow on each end. Rods are usually placed in mid air, but are sometimes encountered with both ends in a wall, or placed diagonally. There are five different Poles encountered in Cold Storage, all which act differently from each other. Poles are used by the Yeti to scale Cold Storage, and by the Giant to store his Food.

Metal Pole
Metal Poles are the first poles the player encounters in the game Cold Storage, they were also used by the Giant to store food on. The metal poles are gray, meaning they could be made of metal. They are the strongest poles in the game, and would never break, wouldn't tip, they weren't weak, and it didn't matter if they were positioned diagonally, because the Yeti wouldn't slide down them. The are common throughout Cold Storage, and are the best type of Pole in general as they don't lack anything which would make other Poles slightly dangerous.

Ice Poles
Ice Poles are the second type of Pole introduced in Cold Storage. They are like Metal Poles, except that the Yeti spins a little faster on the Pole, due to the presence of Ice on it. If the pole is tilted, The Yeti will slide down it. They are the second most common Pole in Cold Storage, and are also commonly encountered positioned diagonally or in positions that cause the Yeti to slip down it.

Super Pole
Super Poles are the third type of Pole introduced in Cold Storage. Super Poles have a blue light around them, and are striped light grey and white. Super Poles also rotate, as the ends are seen rotating. Since Super Poles rotate, when the Yeti grabs on to one, he will spin on it faster. Super Poles are the only Poles that allow for the Yeti to go into Attack Mode, where upon jumping off the Pole the Yeti will move into a ball like pose and fly high up at a high speed, something not possible with all other Poles.

Attack Mode allows the Yeti to kill enemies without losing health, all enemies except for the Goo Firing Heads. Super Poles are not as common as other Poles. Yellow Rings fire the Yeti higher than Super Poles, but do not allow him to go into Attack Mode.
