Roboclaw - Time Waster

You know that claw game at arcades, supermarkets, and restaurants where you move a joystick to control a claw made of conveniently thin metal that just happens to have the gripping strength of a three-year old girl? Well Roboclaw is way better than that. The object of the game is to move a double-axis claw to pick up a ball and place it in a goal. The up and down arrow keys control the main axis, and the left and right arrow keys control the secondary axis.

The levels get increasingly difficult by adding obstacles (the claw and arm can pass over obstacles, but the ball cannot) and making you race the timer, but thankfully there is a code for each level so you can pick up where you left off if you lose all of you lives. You won't win a cheap stuffed animal, but you will waste time!

UPDATE: We aren't sure if the game is being overloaded with users right now or what, but the arrow keys don't appear to be working in all browsers (although they worked swimmingly at the time of writing). We suggest trying the game later, or check out our other time wasters.

UPDATE 2: If you're having trouble with the main links to Roboclaw, please try this link (thanks Blog Jones!).
