Dialogue[edit]

Pt. 1[edit]

After tapping on Snake's exclamation mark Yo, professor, what is that thing? Tremble before my steampunk arachno-monstrosity! It's steam-powered? Why would you ever choose steam as your power source? Because it's scarier this way! Maybe I'm not getting this. What's "scary" about utilizing outmoded technology? I'll squash you for that! Task: "Make Snake Assault Frink's Mechano-Spider".

Pt. 2[edit]

After tapping on Snake's exclamation mark Like, ouch! You see?! My colossal steam spider works! Ha-ha-ha!!! Actually, my pain comes from imagining how much more efficient it'd be with an internal combustion engine. What's your fuel source, dude? How do you boil the water? Coal. It burns coal. Oh great. So it's both an engineering AND environmental disaster. Who's the nerd here? Task: "Make Snake Assault Frink's Mechano-Spider". The job takes place at Frink's Mechano Spider and takes 6 hours.

Pt. 3[edit]

After tapping on Snake's exclamation mark ...I'm just saying that a mechanical steering system like yours will never approach the reliability of fly-by-wire electronics. The weight savings alone would justify the R&D layout. And it's not like you'd have to fabricate the parts yourself. Off-the-shelf components would work. STOP GIVING ME ENGINEERING ADVICE! Just let me see your blueprints. I can help! Stand still! Why? So you can cough coal smoke at me until I develop asthma? God! Task: "Make Snake Easily Avoid the Mechano-Spider".

Pt. 4[edit]

After tapping on Snake's exclamation mark My steam spider is a failure. You can go about your outlawry, Mr. Snake. No, bro, I'm here for you. Let's roll up our sleeves and make this thing work. What about going full-on electric? You could be the Tesla of giant killer mecha-spiders. It won't work. Lead-acid batteries are too heavy. ... What? LEAD-ACID? Is this the 1990s? Uh, hello? Lithium-ion has, like, a billion times the energy density. I knew that! You are the sorriest excuse for a mad scientist I have ever met. I'll squash you yet!
