Walkthrough

 * Letters in italics refer to marked spots on the map. Sector numbers in boldface are secrets which count toward the end-of-level tally.

Head into the teleporter on the left, and grab all the goodies available. Be careful not to fall off, as it leads to a telefrag via a voodoo doll.

You will end up back at the beginning. There is a switch to the left of the previous teleporter by a pole in the fence. Hit it, and enter a newly opened teleporter. There is a partial invisibility and berserk powerup available. Head back to the beginning through the teleporter and enter the right one.

The final boss will rise from the black pit in front of you. First of all, kill all the demons that rise up. Then kill the three cyberdemons that guard the switches, and press all three of them.

Head up to the pillar with the megasphere, and twp revenants will teleport in. Kill them.

Now to tackle the final boss-pull out your rocket launcher, and aim at the eye. It does not matter which pillar you stand on-you can attack the boss regardless from either position. It is difficult to hit since the gap is so small-if you fail, don't worry-just reload your game and try again. If there are too many enemies distracting you, clear them out with your BFG if you still have ammunition for the weapon.

Eventually, the boss will explode. Congratulations on beating Plutonia 2!

Secrets
Head left, to the edge of the starting room. You will find a switch, so hit it. Once you do, a teleporter will open. Enter it and you will get credit for a secret.
