| Oodletrouble | ← | Bad Iceberg | → | The Bricks |
Bad Iceberg is the twentieth site skin released on Nitrome.com. It was hinted in a Nitrome blog post on November 26th, with a release on December 1st, 2014.
Description[edit | edit source]
The skin shows a bunch of Nitrome characters fighting a giant vanilla ice cream character.
There is a green boat which the flying man is seen sleeping in while sitting on a chair, the flying man pointing to the giant vanilla ice cream character which the soldier is shooting at. The communications satellite is at the far end of the boat.
Some icebergs are floating in the sea. Gunbrick dude is seen inside his Gunbrick on an iceberg. Another iceberg has a tank, missile pod and three robots attacking the giant vanilla ice cream character, with Billy on top of the character is eating a part of it. One robot is seen being destroyed. Submolok is seen flying in the air and is near Billy.
Multiple doves are flying towards the giant vanilla ice cream character and Radd Bradd is on top of its head, doing his death animation. The Polar bear, who is on a giant snowball, and Green Ninja are both inside the giant vanilla ice cream character's mouth.
The sea in the skin contains some seaweed, a squid half-submerged, and Coil is fully submerged with a frown on its face.

Hints[edit | edit source]
The skin includes characters that hint future games. These characters are:
- A green frog inside the mouth of the vanilla ice-cream character. This was revealed to be Green Ninja from the game with the same name.
- Three gold head robots appear on the right side of the skin, and of these robots one is exploding. These were later revealed to be Panic bots from Platform Panic.
- A skateboarder that appears in the top left of the skin. He was later revealed to be Radd Bradd, a playable character in Platform Panic.
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- This skin is named "Xmas 2014 skin" in the URL that appears when the skin is selected.[1]
- This was the last skin made by Nitrome to feature characters from more than one game, since the next skin has only characters from Gunbrick (mobile).
- This skin was used as the background of the 2014 Christmas Avatar Calendar.
