I know you warned me about the art, but I actually really liked this style. The the elevator going to different floors that lead to other places was really cool. I also love the detail that more distant floors took longer to get to, such a nice touch. I had a lot of fun seeing what the items did.
Well, this was fun, im glad you went with the story and arts idea :) the only bug i noticed ist that you can sometimes give and take the same items over and over again.

yeah, there are some item bugs on the lower floor. since you can only collect them once though it should not break the game :)
That was the best elevator simulator I've played this year. Great mood.

Interesting point & click concept. Didn't quite understand the end though

Cool Concept, Didn't quite feel like one room being in the elevator, but the premise is there. Using each of the floors to affect one another was great, but I did sometimes feel a little lost going up and down clicking on all my items. Didn't encounter any game breaking bugs, besides being able to use the lamp multiple times on one floor and activating some of the floors while the elevator was moving past them.
Music sounded just a little too creepy for the style of game. It seemed like a horror at the beginning with the 2 dark rooms and the music.
Overall Pretty nice.

I love how surreal this feels with the music and low colour art and crazy magic elevator. Nice work!
Great and funny idea, thanks!
I dig the pixel art! This was a cute game, I like the design, story, and play. Nice complete jam! Well done!

The music and setting really sets the mood. The story's pretty confusing though, maybe I'm not thinking deep enough lol.
Here's my first impression if you're interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ajJZ7ijM_7A&feature=youtu.be
Loved how you the theme! Very creative.
I liked the puzzles and the art is great. Solid entry!

the elevator as the "one room" that's great. also the intuitive interaction s cool and i really like the graphic style. the only thing is that i think the elevator is to slow, if i go from 1 to 11 the time to wait is like a annoying loadingtime.

Nice ambient sounds, and I like the colors. The story was a bit hard to follow though, and brute-forcing was easy just by clicking all the icons. One of the better entries! :-)
Are you sure Web version is working? What should I use to play the game? Keyboard or mouse? It is not responding to any input (tried in Safari and in Firefox).
@iossif Ah, it is controlled by mouse. I see now. Very nice game. I just finished it. Good job. :-)

Interesting narrative, got stuck on crafting the map so thanks for including the spoiler walkthrough = you're a GameJam pro.
