You swim around, do some yelling and generally waste time.
Suddenly, you notice that the temperature of the substance is rising. Very quickly.

Accept the fact that you are now either a cake, brownie, or some other baked goody.

Wonder if this mystery substance is in fact red hot fiery ...lava? Magma?

Debate whether or not substance is lava or magma.

Use substance to draw facial features on your ugly mug

The substance does not not resemble lava. Since you are submerged, you cannot draw on your own face.

The temperature of the muck seems to reach boiling point. Your body begins to shake in the boiling goop.

The substance around you seems to be ebbing away. Your vision clears and you see that you are standing waist-deep in gunk that is now burning, emitting thick black fumes.

Somehow, you are still alive.

Try to see if there is anything to see aside from the burning muck.

The muck burns away completely, leaving an assortment of rusty iron parts and robotic bodies lying on the gray, sooty floor.

Shortly touch some of the objects but imediately pull back your hand after you touch it to see if anything happens.

You touch one of the metallic robot parts near you.

Nothing happens.

Try to Transform. Check if the robotic bodies are Transformers. You may be inside of Unicron.

Try to see if you can use any of the pieces as tools.
Try to make a multi-purpose tool and a gun if you can.

Call for assistance AFTER you have a weapon of some sort.
Are you hungry and/or tired?

After you make a gun, but NOT BEFORE you call for help, try to see if you can use some of that scrap metal as armour

contain the muck and use its burning properties as a light source (assuming it gives off light)

You examine some of the robotic bodies.

Most are extremely rusty, charred and/or are missing body parts. All of them seem to be generic humanoids.

Interestingly, all of the robot's hands seem to have been ripped off.
You also notice that there are no hands among the wreckage. Where did they go?

Of the many robots, you spot two that are in slightly better shape than the rest. All of their limbs are intact, although their hands are still missing.

You do not feel hungry or tired.

There is no gunk left; it has burned up completely.

Continue with making a gun?

Make hands out of the less salvagable bodies, apply them to the ones in better condition, and pretend they are your friends. Your dead, rusty friends.

You search around for something to make a gun out of. However, there are no tubes or intricate mechanical parts that you could make a gun out of. And anyway, wouldn't a gun require some kind of explosive propellant?
Instead, you find a heavy leg that could be used as a club.

For armor, you grab a few metal plates and fasten them around your chest as best you can.

Perhaps if you had a heat source, you could heat the metal until it was more flexible, then make something more useful out of it?

The only body parts that seem similar to hands around you are feet. You grab/rip off a few feet from the surrounding wreckage and insert it into the robots' arm stubs.

You notice that the intact robots' bodies glow slightly where you touch them.

Hold metal to the bodies while touching them and try to fashion some tools. EDIT: assuming it gives off heat.
What is the light source and how far can you see?
Are there any batteries in the bodies that are usable? If so, construct an flashlight (EDIT: it can be a piece of the robot you carry for the glowing effect, but it has to be durable and replaceable) and an electric club.
Try to make a crossbow with that thing you fastened the plates to your chest with.
By the way, where did you get the fastening?
Is there anything out of the ordinary? Any writing at all?
