Letters in italics refer to marked spots on the map. Sector, thing, and linedef numbers in boldface are secrets which count toward the end-of-level tally.

Secrets

1. In the first low gravity section, jump as you are heading east, then on the highest ledge, get the devil sphere. (sector 1034)
2. In the quad cannon area south of the first low gravity section, hop to the panels north of the quad cannon and use the one with static. Head south and take the teleporter to find Hellshells and a Hellshell launcher. (sector 988)
3. Press the switch at the north end of Secret #2 and you can head to a second low gravity section. Head northwest and out of the low gravity, then east to get a happy sphere and clips of paint. (sector 567)
4. Head north from the square key area to the low gravity section. Jump west and north as much as you can to get a piece of cake, a Circool-aid, and a locationator. (sector 422)
5. At the northeast end of the map, press on the blue screen to the north, look west, and quickly shoot the brown button in the distance. Head south and jump to the northwest to get Hellshells, clips of paint, and a happy sphere. (sector 999)
6. Head south from the previous secret, taking the steps up. Jump to the cheese platform to the east and you can find a fizz-o pop behind the stalagmites. (sector 419)
