Pinwheel

"Those spinny things make me nauseous... *urp*"

- Agent 1

Pinwheels are a mechanic in Octo Valley, specifically in the level Pinwheel Power Plant.

Description
Pinwheels are typically long, narrow platforms attached to a central cylindrical axis that constantly rotate in a set direction. Pinwheels can contain any number of platforms, and occasionally feature net barriers that rotate on the axis as well. In order to bypass these net barriers, Agent 3 must assume squid form.

Appearances

 * Pinwheels first appear in the Octo Valley mission Pinwheel Power Plant, where they play a prominent role. Agent 3 encounters multiple varieties of Pinwheels here, many of which include net barriers, one platform, and Octarian enemies.
