This is a neat idea and the game was somewhat enjoyable though I don't think it fits the theme all that closely.

The concept looks interesting, but my mouse always moved off the table, because I had to always move it into the same direction. I think with easier controls it could be an even better game, gj

Thank you for the praise! I added a tip to the page and it might help you too; play in fullscreen-mode to prevent this :)

Interesting idea! The controls took a bit to figure out, but it's got the makings of a fun rage game á la Getting Over It :)

I did get the controls to work! However I use a trackpad so I can't climb.

Great!  Sorry to hear you had only trackpad available; Im afraid you are not able to complete the game :(

Love the style and look of the game. The controls are a little hard to use for me, so I wasn't able to get very far.

I wasn't able to get the controls to work :(. Let me know if you get it fixed and I'll give it another shot

They're pretty unintuitive (but I think that might be part of the design? Feels like a Getting Over It-style game) - you have to kinda click the mouse button (left and right buttons for the respective hands) on the opposite side of where you want them to go, and then drag it over the robot's body to the point where you want them to be. Still clunky, but it works. Definitely original!
