Okay first... how can you add a button reading "Don't click" to your game? You KNOW I'm gonna click it,but it would be nice to have a back button once clicked, I had to reload the game to get back to the menu screen. The art is nice, and it's hilarious the way you can just drop the elevator down and watch them get all huffy with the service.

took me a while to figure out how to operate the elevator,but once I figured out how I felt stupid for not knowing. Good Game, keep up the good work

Hmmmmmmmmm, what a game babay, a lot of pleasure went on playing it <3

Very funny game, loved what you came up with this "I'm an elevator" concept. Your scoring was a little bit to harsh on us though (a love and hate thing maybe), I played a long time and couldn't end up with more than -200. I know I was bumpy and all but damn it's tough !

Nailed it with your real life prototype also !!
It's rated !

I was laughing the entire time! But I truly lost it when I saw Darth Vader (Best part was that I played it on May 4th)

This game was hilarious. Very impressed. The don't click button was pretty funny, but you should put a back button. The only thing it was missing was being able to commit suicide by ramming the roof or floor.

Hilariously jank in all the right ways. The different characters flopping around the elevator, the sexy narrator, all the jokes on the different floors... man oh man. Great work!

Most original game I've seen so far in this ludum dare!!! The idea is very good and the result is very funny. Also, the atmosphere is very well achieved with these nasty-sensual voices and music :sweat_smile:

Pretty hard to get a positive score, though :upside_down:

I would love to see your crazy-funny-original ideas in the future!

From the description and other commenters, this looks like a fun game.

Unfortunately, it wasn't working for me. I called it up and got nothing but a black screen with some controls in the lower right corner that wouldn't do anything. (This was on Safari 10.1 / OS X 10.12.4.)

The best voice work, hands down, in any game ever. I really suck at this game but I thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

Beautiful. I liked bonking their heads on the ceiling and watching them get angry.

I clicked the "don't click" button and had to reload.
