#3 - From the platform described in #2, walk around the room to your right, jumping between ledges. Eventually you will come to a stone hall. Down the hall is a cell pack.

#4 - Method #1: Walk to the end of the stone hall described in secret #2. You will be above the wooden area you passed through before. Walk onto the stone support on your left. Jump to the support on your right. Keep jumping until you reach the last support. These jumps are easiest to start from the top of the support and to end at the bottom of the next. You should be over a large, open area with a slipgate below and to the right. The next support is 90 degrees to your left. Reaching this support is easier if you run off of the support and let your momentum carry you to the next. On this support and the next are ammo and health.

Method #2: Beneath the two supports with the items is a flame holder. Start from the wall opposite the holder and a little to the left or right. Aim yourself at the flame. Run forward, jump onto the holder, and then, from the top of the holder, jump forward. This must be done very quickly. If it works, you will be on top of one of the supports.

Secret level - Get the silver key. Go to the end of the level. You will reach a pool of lava with four supports sticking out and a strange metal object hanging above. Do NOT use your silver key to drop the object! Instead, jump across the supports to reach the other side. On your left will be a silver key door. Open it to reach the secret level. (Note that a wall covers the door if you drop the metal object)
