Waterworks Zone
Overview
Waterworks Zone is a massive dam. Gimacian used it to cut off the animals' water supply. It has tanks of water that are being stored. This zone has 2 acts, both of which are Surge only, and a boss. This level takes inspiration from the Itaipu Dam, a hydroelectric dam located on the border between Brazil and Paraguay.

Gimmicks
Creative Gimmicks for Waterworks:
The brown platforms are in fact the ones that rise and fall, and the blue-green gear on the side is meant to move the platforms (or the water). -- svgmovement
The green one is supposed to be propeller-powered. The blue cylinder would be the rolling platform. My idea was that Surge would run on top of the cylinder (circle from 2D), and rotate it to move forward. -- svgmovement
The backdrop here is a rock face. In front of the rock face is supposed to be the transport pipe. At the very front are platforms suspended by cables. -- svgmovement
Prototypes
In February 2018, the first prototype of Waterworks was created. He represented the small level without enemies. Later, the level was completely redesigned and expanded.
