Up To Go Down

"Sometimes you gotta go up to go down"

Submission for https://itch.io/jam/flip-out (alt ctrl jam for an arcade cabinet using five toggle switches for controls).

Inspired by true elevator events and featuring insufferable elevator music (I'm sorry), Up To Go Down puts you in the shoes of the operator of an extremely manual elevator system.

Transport passengers to their requested floor to score enough points to earn a spot on the leaderboard — and the privilege of trying to input your initials using five toggle switches (I'm sorry).

Meant to be played using the custom Flip Out jam controller, but can also be played using the Q, W, E, R, and T keys - holding down the key is equivalent to the corresponding switch being in the 'on' position. "The button" is equivalent to the spacebar.
