Secrets

 * 1) Head into the lava north of the starting building and look south to spot a hard-to-see switch. Flip it to lower the soul sphere on the blue pillar nearby. (sector 83)
 * 2) In the room with the red carpet, use the metal wall to lower a lift. Hug the southwest corner as it rises and you will end up getting a backpack. (sector 121)
 * 3) On the steps with the super shotgun pillar, go all the way down, then look back up the steps. You will spot a skull switch. Use it to lower a nearby megaarmor. (sector 161)
 * 4) Open the yellow door, but before going down the steps, open the wall with the lion face on it. Enter this empty room, and you will pick up a rocket launcher via voodoo doll. (sector 287)
