Second level in The Dark Journey set.

After pushing through so many things in the previous level, one might think there's nothing left in store, only to get pleasantly surprised with another memorable location.

Very tall level with a lot of jumping to do. Good use of layout: there's a central hub with platforms in the air, and different places you access from it, and the hub itself gives you a lot of opportunities to move up and down in order to reach the exit and jump down to the area blocked by the fence to grab a key.

The detailing of the hub consists of more detailed machinery with grates in front of it taking turns with less detailed green brick walls that provide rest for the eyes. Walls of different color are placed in the center to highlight importance of the area since that's where jump down for the key should be done. Machinery also attracts attention with its movement and grates hint that it's possible to walk on them and get inside the mechanism.

The readme says that "Delta" and "Clock" are only "first two of several levels", and more of them are on the way. Too bad I couldn't find these later levels anywhere, because I'm eager to see more creative setpieces created in similar manner.
