Passage From Genesis level
----------------------------
As you start the Up & Down level, swim around the cavern until you find the
Info Crystal. Below it is a
hole that leads downward. The current is too strong -- you cannot swim down
it. Look for the boulder
just right outside the alcove where the hole is located. Push it into the
hole and stay directly behind it.
You will enter a room with four stone pegs. Above those pegs is the power of
Sonar. Get the Sonar and
use it in the small opening of the pegs. A little light should appear.
Quickly light up all four and a door below
will open to the 2D level.
Pathways From Nowhere level
After you make your way up the geyser, you will find a big ring with a spot
of light in the middle. In that same
area are many power jewels. Find them and bring them to the ring. Two are
above the water, one is under the
stone shack-like thing, and the rest are around the other side of the pool.
After you have collected all of them.
it will open the way to the bonus area.
