And it is about one crazy engineer that makes a big mistake. So perhaps it is where the song has been used. So going along the lines of that perhaps something has changed in size from the game field, or perhaps the objects make the robots appear either larger or smaller. Maybe a nano-tech game where the bots work with microscopic game pieces like moving one molecule to another.
Just a thought

I think you have something here. The hint would be too easy with just locomotion. But if the song was played in a movie, then we have a second degree of seperation. The thought process for creating a clue about making things larger during the game. Thus the movie about "Honey I Blew up the Kid". Movie reference is too simple. Thus a connection to a song in that movie would make it difficult to interpret right away. So clue makers have to ask who sang that song. Then find a photo of the singer.

The conclusion to reach here is that we will be inflating some object. We will be "Blowing-up the game piece".
