Secrets[edit]

  1. In the main area, one of the walls at the south end requires a blue key to open it, and it leads to a hallway which leads back to the starting point. However, there is no way to reach this secret without cheating, as there is no blue key in the level. (sector 48)

Bugs[edit]

Only 0% secrets is legitimately possible on this map, as the one secret here requires a blue key which is not present in the map.
