You Know The Drill

You Know The Drill is the seventeenth level in Metal Arms. After reuniting with Krunk, Glitch finally returns to his search for Vlax to get the gateway chip back. In order to find Vlax, Glitch must travel the drill room and work his way up to the top.

Trivia

 * At the very beginning of this level, a Titan standing beyond a glass panel (and looking into the opposite direction) detects Glitch as he approaches. This Titan is triggered to react to Glitch's presence, even if he's sneaking. Other Titans in the game aren't as sharp, plus the glass between Glitch and the Titan isn't transparent for reticles to detect. Because the AI doesn't detect Glitch directly, the Titan doesn't react with hostility, but with suspicion.
 * As Glitch progresses through this level, the Barter Droids will move from their original position and relocate to an area closer to the end of the level.

Easter Egg
If Glitch uses his Control Tether on the Predator, upon disconnecting from it, the mission objective will say: "Evan hopes you had fun with the Predator, Now get up and out of the mining facility."

Glitch
If he activates the drill to descend into the large pit, Glitch can jump onto the drill and be taken down the hole without being destroyed. Unlike falling, being lowered into the pit seems to prevent his demise. However, if Glitch jumps the rest of the way down, he'll be stuck down there, with no other way to escape but to reset to last checkpoint.
