A fun little game, there seems to be no penalty for spamming all keys at once though.

@donvermo - Whatever makes you feel like an octopus. ;) The animation delay on the tentacles plus the penalty for dropping sushi countered spamming in my scant testing, but I didn't do any external playtesting, so I'm not surprised.
What a funny take on "two buttons!"
Love the theme. On the other hand, since I don't have controller around the controls were annoying.
I had great time trying your little game. Well done !
An entry that had me laughing from the description until the bitter end. Dammit, I fed that octo-pussy good and all I got was 0 :) Really like that you created an anti-theme, I wish more people would do that :) Really fun entry. Luckily my keyboard doesn't jam up so I could pretty much press everything at the same time.
Very innovative controls and impressive live demo presentation.
Thanks for the comments!
@tanjent :) Glad you enjoyed it! (I had forgotten about the key limit thing! I hope that doesn't make anyone feel less like an octopus.)
Our team saw this game presented at the SURF jam recently. It looked totally bonkers with all those controllers, and we LOVED seeing it in action. Great job on this game. We hope you build it out further!
fun game, a little hard sometimes
Without 8 sticks this was really difficult due to ghosting on the keyboard. I wish it would've also simply allowed 8 buttons on a controller.
Fun game, but I don't think this really fits the theme. at least since I only had 2 controllers, so I played with 6 keys.
@Imagos - Thanks!
@YinYin - Yeah, I forgot about ghosting (are you mashing too much? ;) ), but I wanted to optimize for eight sticks instead because octopus!
@thecatspajamas - What? It totally only uses 2 buttons! ;) I mean, unless you play just keyboard, but that's the, erm, non-standard control scheme?
Aboslutely love it, I love octopusses I love sushi, I love button mashing and derpy games. So lovely! This game really made me happy
Hehe, yeah I tried mashing a lot - but then due to that I figured I have to ferry over just one at a time.
Really good take on the theme!
It's a mice work for two days! Congratulations!
Nice game. Like your way to control tentacles.
This game was really fun, and cute! The controls worked nicely, and it made me really wish I had those joysticks. Cool game!
