PrinceWatercress plays Ratchet and Clank: Going Commando - Part 12 of 54

Well, we're stuck on a desert planet. Let's see what we can do here.

First | Previous | Next | End

2:10 - These enemies will breath on you if you get too close. They're also perfect for weapons we have yet to evolve. Be ready to destroy some spawners, too.

The purple nanotech refills two hit points compared to just the one that the blue nanotech refills.

7:22 - Here, we get a wrench upgrade. We can do more damage up close.

12:21 - When you finally make it out of the cave, you'll meet the thief again. Once again, the thief is clumsy, and this time, the thief is finally revealed: a taller female Ratchet. She then tells you that with the Experiment in Mr. Fizzwidget's hands, the galaxy is now in danger. You'll also get coordinates to the Megacorp Testing Facility in Dobbo, but you're still going to need a ship.

15:08 - Before you can get the ship, a hippie forces you to give him crystals. You'll have to go out into the desert and hunt them down, then bring them to him.

16:41 - Instead of going into the desert, we'll be taking this path instead. 

19:06 - Use the Thermanator when the right side is up to get the first of three Platinum Bolts in Tabora.

21:07 - Freeze the water so you can wall jump.

22:05 - We have the glider! The glider allows us to fly across this lava chasm. Be sure not to run into anything as you get from the beginning to the end. At the end is the second Platinum Bolt and a warp back to the desert.
