Your Outie liked this game. Your Outie appreciates your enthusiasm to model the Severance Floor in 3D. Your outie also reviewed "Life of a Goldfish". Your Outie can roller-skate with grace.

The level and camera started to bug after using the computer, I thought it was for the "anomaly" thing... but the level collision didn't match the visual, and found it really hard to return to the elevator. Was it a bug?

It was, unfortunately ! The original camera position is stored when interacting with elements on click, but I might have forgotten to disable it in this particular instance, so if you click on interactive items while the camera is away from the player it might register an offset position instead of the origin. Sorry for the inconvenience !

Never actually riding the elevator is as uncomfortable as I imagined :D I liked the suspense, and the reward for being a good employee was well worth the wait :)

This is a really impressive and cool game, it looks really good, but I didn't understand how to play after I finished the game on the computer. 😅
