Secrets[edit]

  1. At the easternmost end of the map, head east up the steps and when you start floating, turn around and use the middle of the top of the steps. This will lower them. Flip the switch to the north to get ammo and a backpack. (sector 0)
  2. When you raise the gravity in the outside area east of the start, try to jump up to the upper cave above the brown floating platform to get to a soul sphere. (sector 945)
  3. After lowering the floor at the start, go to the backside of the yellow switch and flip it. Head east to the two floating platforms in the outside area, then head south and into a small maze where you can get a rocket launcher and partial invisibility. (sector 1265)
