8-ball

This is an 8-ball. Not like the magic ones you're used to. Just a regular 8-ball, the kind you'd have if you stood seventy-seven feet tall.

If you'd rather it be an infinity-ball, just rotate it 90 degrees to the left or right.

Type: usable (also usable in combat)
Selling Price: 65 Meat.

Weakens enemies very slightly


(In-game plural: 8-balls)

History

References

  • A Magic 8-Ball is a toy used for fortune-telling.
  • The phrase "behind the 8-ball" is a common idiom meaning "in a difficult situation or tight spot."
  • The mention of the infinity ball in the description may be a reference to an episode of The Tick where the main character was chased by one (which was just an 8-ball on its side).
