That's much later, like 20-something, but there are SPNKRs in several levels before that, hidden. ____________________________________________________________________________ Jeremy J.

Well, there are some secrets you might not notice otherwise...but it does bring up a good point - if you _found out_ about it from the spoiler guide, then you should already know where it is, no? Why ask here, instead of looking at the spoiler guide again? .....................................................

One is hidden in Level 10 (Eat > it, Vid Boi) on the west ledge over the lava "moat" (you're starting > location), although I don't know how to get up there. The rocket launcher on "Eat It, Vid Boi" can be acquired by grenade climbing the wall in the lava moat mentioned below. Select your assault rifle as your weapon, jump into the lava, back up against the aforementioned wall, begin swimming and firing both triggers at the same time. When you float out of the lava, the weapon will begin firing, damaging you and propelling you up to the ledge which contains the rocket launcher as well as the flamethrower.
