It is very hard to move even a little bit controllably, I think the controls should be a bit easier to get used to and with harder level design

I do like these kinds of rage games. The addition of an extra arm might be a bit of a help here (not sure tho). I do think controls could be a bit better. Maybe if the arms had a bit of a grip (just a very small amount). Right now sometimes you even push yourself forward by just having the arm behind you because of some weird physics. +the background art assets look great but it could look crisper I think if you set the filtering to Point Filter on the sprites, it would look better because its pixel art. Great game tho :) Hope you'll continue it :)

Occult PrecisionThank you the feedback!
I struggled with getting the physics working (spent the first 3 days prioritizing on that in fact) so I had to overlook some problems. I see that there are a few notable bugs and inconsistencies with the arms.
About the pixel art, I'm getting a few good suggestions like yours, and will surely implement them after the jam is over.
I'm not sure if I can update the game before the jam finishes, if I'm right doing that may lead to disqualification?
I loved this game. The movement really pushed me to want to complete it, but I just couldn’t do it.
The theme is indeed present, but the artwork deserves the credit.

Fix The ScaleF*ck that robot, great use of the theme. A little bit of advice: Next time you use pixel art remember to turn off anti aliasing!
