Here's my MS Paint sketch of a platforming section in Filtration, and the finished level.
Top: an MS Paint sketch of a gear train, with several parts labeled ("one of the second-floor rooms: swinging on beams that retract with the 'sudden retract' mechanism," "120° bevels for upper rooms," "bevels," "reduction," "big rotating walkway," "swing platforms") Bottom: this level in the finished game, showing that there is indeed a big rotating walkway with bevel gears etc. connected to it
