auf

a game about elevators

moved to https://github.com/Werninator/auf

general idea

in auf you control elevator(s) to bring different people from one floor to another

it's an action-puzzle / management game

if people wait for too long, they get angry and explode

when the third person explodes, the building will be shut and your carreer as an elevator manager will end

but you can try it as often as you want with different buildings with different amounts of floors and structures

protoype ideas

i have different ideas for prototypes

  • you control elevators by
    • clicking the floor
    • dragging the counterweight
    • wasd, controller
  • you control
    • only one elevator
    • more elevators at once
  • elevators can move
    • only vertically (up/down)
    • vertically and horizontally
  • people
    • spawn from doors
    • are labeled with their destination
    • gradually get red and explode
    • have an unique appearance, showing their destination intuitively
    • enter an elevator immediately until its capacity is full
  • doors
    • are stationed in floors
    • shake when they're about to spawn new people
    • unique appearance (matching the people)

idea inbox

because there were too many

  • waiting line as a sign which person wants to use the elevator next
  • exiting people will exit to the right side of the building so that the waiting line is always visible
  • level progression by adding floors and different kinds of people
  • people-combos by delivering the same type at once
  • underground floors
  • floors on both sides of the elevator

not-so-important ideas

  • setting, kind of elevator
    • office building
    • skyscraper
    • Paternoster lift
    • chinese elevators

progress

here are some gifs of progress
