"Box, Arm, Box" is an enticing adventure where you will be playing as a yellow box with a claw-arm. You can expect amazing physics, unusual mechanics and alluring levels! And what's more important - there's no art to distract you!
Your goal is to reach the exit carrying a bomb! But don't lose it out of your sight - it's unstable and can blow up at any moment!
Move the box using the WASD keys and the spacebar. Control the arm and grab the bomb using the mouse.

Well done! :)
The bomb mechanic is very punishing and kind of annoying tbh. The general difficulty was great though!
I suggest for a future (post ld) version to remove the bomb timer and just turn it into some other thing that has to be transported. (Like a key or some platform that later has to be jumped on). This way the player can focus on the moving more and isn't always stressed to reach the bomb.
The Playercontroller is very versatile a lot of fun to just move with. I'd be interested to seeing speedruns of this game. :smile:
