Gearworks

Gearworks is a room in Eastern SkyTown. It appears in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption.
==Description==
This room is exposed to the outside and Elysia's atmosphere. Various large gears can be seen spinning, hence the room's name. There is very little flooring in this room, so Samus must use the Screw Attack to move through the room. If Samus comes back to this room after obtaining the Ship Grapple Beam, a Space Pirate ATC can be seen destroying the sole platform in the room as well as the gears, which reveals a Missile Expansion. Samus can acquire this expansion and continue her mission to assemble the Theronian Bomb. Depending on how fast Samus can destroy the ATC (which requires Hypermode to destroy it successfully), she can preserve some of the gears.

==Tutorial==
"Use Screw Attack to help you travel long distances.Press to jump, then press again to Space Jump. Press repeatedly to Screw attack."
==Development notes==
The room's internal name is 0d_skytown_hall. The keyword skytown indicates Skytown, Elysia, and the prefix 0d indicates that this is the fourth of 9 sets of junction room throughout the planet.
==Trivia==
*Most Metroid Prime series Missile Expansions play the Tank Jingle and an accompanying percussive beat simultaneously when collected. When the Expansion in this room is collected, only the beat is heard, with the jingle (and "Missile Expansion acquired." message) coming after Samus moves closer to a safe platform.
*This room was designed by Kip Carbone.
