Collecting Sewer Crystals
On planet Aquatos, you have the option of collecting sewer crystals for the plumber and trading them for bolts. When you first get to this part of the game, you can go through a small area and collect crystals, but why not just wait until you get the Magnet Boots before collecting mmost of them? When you wear these boots, you can access much more of the entire area. They allow you to walk on walls and ceilings, dodge enemies, collect more crystals, and even go through hidden tunnels on the ceilings and walls. By waiting to this point, it helps you stay alive while you collect tons of these crystals to trade for cold hard bolts!

Flaw to Infernox armor cheat
There is a cheat displayed stating that you can keep the infernox armor forever if you simply open the infernox mode box, pause the game, open the skins screen, and select "current armor" I have tried this cheat, and it does however work, but the "fake" armor is only the equivalent to your armor that is displayed on your items screen, which is the last armor that you have purchased, or your "real" armor. The game designers have put this cheat on the game, simply to trick the players who think that they can get the infernox armor for free.
Free Ammo and Health
Go to any challenge like Annihilation Nation, start the challenge and quit and it refills your ammo and health.
Free Weapons

Get Heaps o' Bolts
On planet Aquatos, You will be asked by the Plumber to collect "Sewer Crystals". The Plumber pays 20,000 bolts for each. To Receive MORE SC's FASTER, Play through, doing all Galactic Ranger missions, until you have the Gravity Boots and the Map-o-Matic, then return to the Aquatos Sewer. You may now Walk on the walls and ceiling of the Sewer like an Ameoboid. Your map also shows SC locations and most of the sewer is green. To explore the uncharted "green" areas, Run across the ceiling until you find a hole. It will take you to the Upper Sewer, with more SC's to grab. Use your map to search them out, then retrieve them. Selling SC's can get you the $$$ you need for weapons faster (I did this to get the RY3NO!).
Get skill point: Monkeying around
In Starship Phoenix hit the one-eyed monkey with your wrench to get the skill point.
Get Useful Stuff
Go to Annihilation Nation and complete all challenges, paying extra attention to destroying foes, bolt crates, bomb crates, cameras, and scenery. Also, you should pay attention to titanium bolt locations. Certain Deathcourses place platforms in areas where a titanium bolt platform is hidden (for example, one of the bridges has a platform too far out to reach unless you are in a certain Deathcourse, in which a 2nd platform with a laser- shooting robot is provided). If in challenge mode and you have the Bolt Grabber V2 (from the Zeldrin Starport), Try not to get hit, so your bolt multiplier maxes out and stays that way (using your shield Charger/Tesla Barrier blocks damage, but you're still hit) and use your overhead wrench attack allot to open crates and break scenery (except cameras) and gain bolts easier. Open Bolt multiplier crates to double your normal multiplier's number and gain even more bolts. When all this is done, you receive over 1 million Bolts, 2 titanium bolts from deathcourses, two Quark Video- comics, the Tyrraguise (which disguises you as a Tyrranoid), a trophy, and at least 1 skill point.
