The final secret award is for completing the final level in 2 minutes, what I did was headed for the blue portal right away to grab the torch and collect all the gems that did not lead to the key behind that blue portal. I then went back to the red portal to grab the key and hit the switch. After that I went through the purple portal and finished that whole portal in one visit grabbing the axe while I was there, double back after the purple portal back into the blue portal grabbing one of your final keys and hitting the red switch. now just complete the green portal and rush back.
