This means that the planet would spin about in the 'Z' axis and thus the range of climate would be very much reduced to what we experience here on Earth. On a planet tilted 90 degrees, you would have one side that is essentially tidally locked, meaning the sunward side is scorching while the other is frozen over.

If the earth was tilted by 90 degrees the seasonal changes would be at the most extreme The pumping of groundwater caused the Earth to tilt 31.5. Planetary scientists think that an early solar system collision of some sort may have knocked into the Earth to cause this tilt, but have you ever wondered what this planet would be like if it spun sideways at a 90-degree tilt instead.
Figure 10 Axial tilt of the Earth Earth Changes. If the earth was tilted by 90 degrees the seasonal changes would be at the most extreme But if we tilted Earth's axis even more, to 90 degrees, the US would get sunlight 24/7, around the clock, for months on end.
Earth's axial tilt and tropics, illustration Stock Image C038/7826. On a planet tilted 90 degrees, you would have one side that is essentially tidally locked, meaning the sunward side is scorching while the other is frozen over. With an axial tilt of 90 degrees, the magnetic and rotational north and south poles would be at the "equator" of the planet
