Tips
  • The left yellow-lined platform on the first level past Worker Gary sends you in a circle and can be ignored.
  • The right yellow-lined platform near Worker Gary also leads nowhere useful.
  • The right platform on the third level, after battling Worker Gerardo, is a red herring.
  • The platform above the square gap on the third level also leads nowhere.
