About Climbing Walls/Ceilings
To leave a wall, press jump. To leave a ceiling press down and jump. Be careful when jumping to hang on to a ceiling, if you keep the jump button pressed too long after touching it you will fall. It's also possible sometimes to grab a climbing wall from behind, in this case you won't be able to move at all, you can only leave it by pressing down.
Grabbing a wall/ceiling cancels Power Shots, you can still use your normal weapon with one hand.

About Generators
A lot of those flying generators are hidden, to reveal them shoot at them. Shooting at them will also generate items in a specific pattern :

1) Spread Shot
2) Phoenix
3) Bounce Blaster
4) Special Item (optional): Silent Flash / Energy Up / Time Up (Arcade mode only)
5) Phoenix
6) Bounce Blaster
7) Spread Shot
8) Orb (optional)
9) Orb dropped when destroyed (optional)

Shooting generators with powerful weapons can destroy them before they dropped all their items. Prefer weak weapons or hit them with your head from below (it doesn't deal any damage). You can still make them reappear by going away a bit, they will continue the drop pattern where they were. Once a generator is empty it won't generate anything anymore, only an Orb can be dropped sometimes when destroyed again.
The shot Items will always appear from the opposite side where you hit the generator.
They can be used as platform to reach special areas.
