Secrets[edit]

  1. In the southwest waterway, jump into the northwest cave to find a backpack. (sector 102)
  2. After raising platforms at the southwest waterway, climb them and head southeast to a low-gravity area. Jump up to the south wall and crouch as you do to find a hidden passage with a switch. This will briefly lower the soul sphere on top of the waterfall, which can make getting Secret #1 easier. (sector 116)
  3. Lower the picture behind the rocket launcher to find a plasma gun and a green armor. (sector 733)
  4. In the low-gravity area at the northwest, jump up to the translucent terminals all the way until you get to one with a megasphere. (sector 802)
  5. In the northeast room, head to the southwest wall and lower it to get rockets and a rocket launcher. (sector 1050)
