Matt Manchester said on his blog: "Icicles! Working with one of the particle artists, Sean Horton, I covered the ceiling of this room with icicles that are slowly dripping at their ends, in the eternal ebb and flow of temperature in this room between the portal to the frozen side of Bryyo on one side, and the sweltering heat of the Fire lands to the other side."
Horton and Manchester added some of the Metroid-related references into levels in Returns.Kiwi Talkz.
