3/3
A screenshot of the pipe room. This room acts as a break between the larger water arena and slime puzzle rooms. The intent was to teach the player about using switches to interact with gates which will be used later on in the level. In this case, a gate lowers to open a path into the slime puzzle room. A screenshot of the final (drained) version of the pipe room. A screenshot of the ramp room. This room is the room right before the elevator sequence. The player must activate a switch to open a set of large mechanic doors (barely seen on the far left of the screenshot). A screenshot of the final version of the ramp room. Here you can see the set of mechanic doors mentioned in the previous screenshot description.

A screenshot of the final (drained) version of the water arena room. A screenshot of the final (drained) version of the slime puzzle room. A screenshot of the elevator sequence. The player steps through a large mechanical door and onto a extending walkway that leads to a large elevator that is home to a spread of computers. Activating the center switch starts the sequence and the elevator lowers into the first of four positions. Each position results in a wave of enemies, pickups, a sewer pipe that needs to be sealed to continue draining the slime below, and for the elevator to progress. This sequence ends in the level's finale where a series of five sewer pipes must be sealed before a boss enemy spawns. Overall, the elevator sequence was an immense amount of work. Far more than I was expecting as it took up half of my allowed time to just get it working, never mind getting it to what it looks like in the final version. A screenshot of the final (drained) version of the elevator sequence. A main difference between this version and the previous screenshot is the changing of the sequence of sewer pipes. Originally, I was going to have only 3 elevator positions but I found it better for players to have to seal one pipe first then the following positions would have a full encounter + pipes to seal.
