Secrets[edit]

  1. At the west end, take the second path from the top and when you teleport back, look to the east and go towards the wall to get rockets, boxes of rockets, and a rocket launcher. (sector 35)
  2. At the west end, take the northernmost path and teleport back. This will lower much of the floor in the main area. When you teleport, enter the closest teleporter either to the north or south and you can get an invulnerability. (sector 45)
