The characters of Among Us They have become iconic in the world of video games, but have you ever wondered why they don't have arms? Discover in this article the curious reason behind this peculiar design decision and how it has influenced the popularity of the game.
First of all, are the crew people or aliens?
Sure you had not thought about it, but several internet users say that these may be astronauts who come to explore with their official suits and although their arms are not seen, we know that they take them out when the impostor is going to attack another crew member. Maybe they're all astronauts, except imposters?
There are others who say that in reality all the crew members are aliens, whether good or impostors, and the proof they use to justify it is the moment they go through the scanner in the medical wing. It is seen that they are only 1 meter long and weigh 43 kilos. If that's true, that might be a good explanation for why they don't have arms, and maybe the shape of these aliens just doesn't need them.

If you have started detailing the characters, you will see that they are an oval shape, with a circle at the top that seems to be their visor and their feet seem to end up straight. So what appears next to him may also be his arm, thinking that it has a similar structure to the feet.
Another theory says that in reality what they have there is a suitcase, where they can carry their tools, their costumes or even their pets, we will never know. It can also be a small oxygen tank if you think that they are actually people dressed as astronauts.
Has InnerSloth said anything about the shape of the crew?
Not specifically, the developers have only shared a message on Twitter in which they mocked the question about why the characters lacked arms. In response, they released a design showing what the crew members would look like if they had arms. The result was truly frightening, with the arms placed vertically, as if the characters were now walking on all fours. This new appearance was terrifying.
It is important to note that InnerSloth has not offered any further information or comments on the shape of the crew. It seems that the original design of the armless characters will be the one that will prevail in the game.
In short, although the developers at InnerSloth teased the question about the crew's arms, they haven't officially unveiled any changes to the characters' shapes. In their tweet, they shared an image of what the crew would look like with arms and the result was truly terrifying.
