Secrets[edit]

  1. Near the beginning, run and jump north to a circular pit where the plasma gun is on the secret platform. (sector 744)
  2. Head onto the ledge southeast of the large cauldron. From here, jump to the lava to the northwest and into a deeper hole which has a soul sphere (megasphere on Hey, Not Too Rough or lower). (sector 951)
  3. Head east of the large cauldron up some steps. Before the next second set of stairs, head east around the pole instead and into a pit which has energy cells and a BFG9000. (sector 1075)
  4. Head to the red building to the east, then go west of the center, up the south steps, and all the way around to the southeast corner. Open the west wall, then continue to the other side to get a soul sphere. (sector 1220)
  5. In the northwest building, after unlocking the east compartments, enter the north one and use the north wall to find a lift to energy cell packs. (sector 1431)
  6. At the north end, go to the northwest end, then go off the south edge. Quickly run east then north to a lowering ledge. Ride up and press the switch. Return to the northwest end and go north to get an invulnerability. (sector 1569)
  7. Right after you get the red key, don't jump down immediately. Instead, look to the left and jump towards that ledge instead. Follow it east and lower the wall at the end to get a soul sphere (invulnerability on Hey, Not Too Rough or lower). (sector 1891)
