As an octopus, juggle sushi rolls over the Sushi Pit to serve them to customers! What high score can you get?
Best played with 8 joysticks (4 controllers) + keyboard, though you may also use 0-7 joysticks and the keyboard. You really just need a keyboard, but it's best with 8 joysticks. Lay them out on the table. Maybe you could spread them around the room? Whatever most makes you feel like an octopus.
Fits the Two Button Controls theme because there are only two buttons (and eight joysticks) used to play the game. Also, it only uses the two Control keys (unless on Mac) (more than a gimmick - they're easiest to reach when also using four controllers).
Made with Unity 5.2 and Visual Studio 2015. Visuals with Paint.Net, and audio with Garageband and Audacity. Enjoy!
@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.
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!
@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?
