Scattered throughout the world are gadget parts and crystals which when you collect will unlock new powers and abilities. Some are easy to spot while others are well-hidden and will involve a lot of searching to find them. A good strategy to make this process easier is to smash ever single wall you come by, this may take time but the rewards are worth it.
