right okay we're getting somewhere in multiple directions. like a really competent octopus. had a time when things were just slow as heck then all of a sudden it's like bam bam bam breakthrough breakthrough flipping breakthrough. i am on fire. not literally. although at one point yes i was literally on fire.
first, eyespider works 100% as an eye. hooks right into optic nerve with just like three seconds of facial spasms. that is well acceptable. still getting used to having one robot eye and one squishy eye. couple of syncing issues. some puking. like at first there was this hilarious bug where the axis got all screwed up. so i'd look up and the view on that one eye would go off to the side instead. and i'd just throw up instantly. it was great. had a bunch of fun with that. got it sorted out now anyway.
eyespider also works as a remote scout spider thing. hooks into my scouter hud. can send it ahead or behind or just like have it perch on my head as like a rear view mirror type situation or set it to scan for threats or motion or whatever. it can do everything. it's great. i'm great. i am really feeling good about this whole eyespider situation.
also working on an eyespider helicopter. i mean it has been established that you cannot fit all the bits involved in a helicopter into an eyeball-sized robot. but you could definitely outsource them. so my eyespider could have like little mech suits. like a flying suit and a little laser battler suit and oh the possibilities. it'd melt your face with the cute. pop that guy out of my skull and right into a tiny little tank or something eeeeeeeeee
Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.
second, massive breakthrough with antbits and antgoop and antgutgems. bunch of basic level sciencing just all came together perfectly and produced an incendiary explosive. i was like, FINALLY. it is insane how little explosive stuff i have around here. anyway managed to blow myself up a bit and get myself on fire to some extent. nothing serious. didn't lose any bits. aside from some hair. needed a haircut anyway. the stuff is this weird sloppy jelly, completely inert unless you introduce it to mr f.e. iron. then it gets real agitated to the point where it boils instantly and converts into this blue steam which ignites on contact with oxygen and there's this big reactive chain of events. skip to the end, i got cannonballs! explosive fire cannonballs! made myself a little tin can thing with a grippy bit. hooked it up to a standard gravity hole teleportal vertical drop speed -> horizontal shooty speed cannonball delivery system. now i have a tin can explosive cannonball gun.
third
no
we don't talk about third
but fourth! freeze grenade works pretty well. definitely freezes water right the heck up. also creates little black zappy crackly balls of negative energy. they go away after a while but they still make me nervous. also have to be careful about this stuff. i mean my water supply is from the river. if i freeze it upstream that could cut off my supply. until it thaws. and how long is that gonna take? hours probably. i don't know it just seems like i could donk myself up somehow with this thing.
probably putting freeze grenades in the emergency use only category
computer's bleeping at me
oh
looks like some test subjects have come to volunteer
how convenient
hehehe
