This game of Multiworld Madness has grown too large for me to handle. What would you have me do?

Muster up remaining strength and complete the current chapter. Bring the game to a logical close, then reboot it.

Same as 1, but a whole new game will be started instead, still Multiworld, but no longer Madness.
- 9 (10.5%)
Get just this last turn done and reboot the game. No point wasting energy if updating takes so long.

Get the last turn done and start a new game project.

uh... physical attacks can't harm it! why do you keep attacking it with glass, swords, punches and such? use water instead. that should work. find fire extinguishers, or just leave him alone.

I start going towards the truck to fix one once again and suggest others to get there as well.

Let's leave the demonic eye in the desert to rage and get on our way.

I like how these magical misconceptions continuously find a way into our daily lives.

"physical attacks can't harm it!"  "use water instead!"

Also, I like how stuff in this game turns out to be emergent. Even the eye is not quite the Deus Ex Machina it might have appeared to be.

Also, some spoilers, I guess. You seem to be very determined to wipe the poor landmark from all existence. LASD's action is very appropriate. And this planet seems to be very bad for your vehicles. Counting different incarnations of JK's armor, you've lost... 6 vehicles here, I think. I mean, up until this moment.

well, water might help against fire. still, my opinion is to just run away.

Water would cool off the massive thermal sig coming off of it.  HEY! That's a good idea! Anybody have a heat seeking missile?

How about the name "Andrea's Furnace" for the little charred hill you're all standing on/at/near? I don't like calling it "unidentified hillock".

I agree, 'tis a good name. Also, I am not trying to hurt the eye, just throw it far enough away that it can't under any reasonable circumstances reach us in less than a week.

Physical attacks CAN hurt the eye, we just need weapons that give bonus' to damage. (remember when I fired my pistol at it? It didnt like that, hence a bigger gun that works like my late pistol, simons machinegun for example, should injure the beast.)

If you read it a little better, you might notice that the bullets specifically hit the eye's tentacles as they were grabbing at Boksi. Physical attacks won't hurt it until it decides to become tangible. It's going to be rather pointless by now, though.

All right then. Instead, I use the headband to analyze the eye and determine the way to get rid of it.

Don't fight the eye, lead it toward the enemy base, I doubt mechs can defeat something intangible either. Then you grab the key and run before it kills you.
worst case scenario: The eye gets killed and weakens the enemy defenses
most likely scenario: The eye kills the mechs and you steal the key from the wreckage
Best case senario: Both of your enemies die. Free key! ;D

Worst case scenario #2: The eye destroys the mechs and the key, making you go through an additional world to get all nine.

Worst case #3:  The eye just kills you now, game over.

▼I like that one the best.

Usual case scenario #"1-and-only": You somehow kill yourselves before making it halfway to the Jaguar base. Because you literally can't take two steps without blowing something up. Or away.
