PrinceWatercress plays Ratchet and Clank: Going Commando - Part 36 of 54

In this entry, we head to Smolg and take a path leading to something other than our main objective. Somehow, the Protopet has already been unleashed.

First | Previous | Next | End

4:30 - The platforms here fall when you land on them, so be ready to use the Swingshot. Also, the Sheepinator will help with the crab enemies on the other side, as well as a lot of the small enemies on the planet.

6:41 - Believe it or not, there is a Platinum Bot above this Levitator pad. It will take multiple tries to get this one, though, as it can be hard to gauge where you are in position to the platform.

16:10 - Approaching this Levitator pad will show you where to go next.

18:15 - You'll need to go back here to find the Levitator pad and get over these boxes. You may also need what's on the boxes, too.

20:56 - Unlike the other enemies, this one particular individual is more intelligent and refined. If you can give him 40,000 bolts for food, you'll get the coordinates for planet Damosel, where the Protopets are running amok.
