Description
Step into the circuits of a robot with an unusual job: bending bars to precise angles. 🦾🤖 Your hydraulic hands are itching to twist metal as you stand at the first workstation. A single button controls the bending, and thicker bars bend slower than thinner bars. Let go of the controls when the bar reaches the target angle. Success/retry/fail? The challenge increases when you have to use two buttons to bend each half of the bar independently! Hard mode. The difficulty of other modes is somewhere in between. How many bends can you do before losing a single life? Will you prefer the predictability of a single bar size or target angle? What secrets will you unlock? As you bend your way to oblivion, remember one thing: your aim is perfection . Exceptional bending might just unlock secret rewards. So lay your hands on some fresh lube and set your sights on the top of the leaderboards. Your work is appreciated! ✨

Accessibility
This game uses the A and B buttons for gameplay, and the D-pad for menu navigation. Crank can be used as a more precise alternative to the A button. There is no timer so you can take as long as you need preparing for each bend. The game features some graphical effects that can be disabled using "Reduce Flashing" in Playdate Settings.
