It has an interesting concept but the performance and graphics weigh it down .

Nice little game! It seems like most people just want to go to 3rd floor xd :3

Really cool concept! Great fit for the theme. Fun to play, but I think it could feel better with upgraded graphics and audio, as well as smoother transitions and mechanics.

Very interesting take on the special object, I'm a big fan of elevators myself.

The game takes it's own unique spin on the idea of having a door as the special object, And has the mechanics revolve around using the different buttons to operate your elevator. The mechanic is nice and makes a lot of sense to use. I also like elevators a lot.

Sadly I did have a couple of negatives, Mostly around the visual style of the game. I was really looking forwards to maybe a pixelated style or a solid style like the cover of the game (It's actually why I clicked onto it), But it seems like the actual game itself is slightly devoid of visuals. The only interesting visuals I saw in my time playing were the passengers and I felt like they looked a bit generic... The transition between floors also feels a bit rough. Also there was a minor bug where people wouldn't leave the lift.

Overall I'll give the game maybe a 4/10? Although it was the lack of visual elements that let me down mostly.

Hi Redcot,
i have also noticed that one person doesn't want to get out of the elevator. Only when you have picked up new people can you redistribute the person and they then also leave the elevator. It is best to place the people in the elevator so that the last person to get on is also the first to leave.

Greetings

Fun concept! I really enjoyed the chaos on the ground floor whenever I came back down after getting other people to their floor! A couple of times some people didn't want to leave the lift no matter what floor I was on but maybe they just enjoyed being in the lift too much. Great game! :)
