R63 The Polar Bear - Ice Climbers

The Polar Bear is a recurring character in the game Ice Climber for the NES. Its an enemy that has a single purpose ─ make the players controlling the climbing duo of Ice Climbers move quickly, and the way it does it in a rather strange manner. The Polar Bear only appears if the Ice Climbers are taking too long to climb the mountain, and will appear on a level above them. The Polar Bear will stomp on the ground, causing the screen to move up to the next level, making the player(s) lose a life if they're on the bottom most level. Almost to nothing is known about the character, but it's clear it's female. Its nonchalant and relaxed appearance looking straight out of beach magazines for summer, despite the bear being from the frozen northern regions of the world.
