Dateline Elevator
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android
DATELINE ELEVATOR is a Regretevator Fangame!!
Your days in the Regretevator are spent enjoying the floors, all the while repelling a certain dream parasite with the power of friendship. Because of this, you’re quite good friends with Melanie, who has been working hard to adapt to her current state of living.
Chaos aside, the days in the Regretevator have been quiet lately. Not much has been happening, and nobody talks to each other much anymore.
It all changed when Melanie called you one day for an idea that she had with Mozelle, and knowing the shenanigans those two go through, you just know you're in for a ride…
MEET YOUR BACHELORS!
Meet PartyNoob! Always up to party and easygoing! They are sure to be able to charm your heart. But will you be able to do the same'

Meet Pest! The enigmatic beetle who's all bark and bite! He might be prickly on the outside, but I'm sure he means well. Will you be able to break his shell?

Meet Infected! A skater who may or may not have some disease that he refuses to get treated for- I mean! He's the local gamer and neighbour next door. Will you be able to glitch your way into his heart?

Meet Folly! Why is she here?! Well, anyways, might as well take the opportunity to continue. Would you be able to convince her to set aside the malice in her heart?

Meet Melanie! Your best friend... who dragged you into this mess in the first place! She means well and has a heart of gold. Will you be able to hop into her heart?

They are also not accurate heights… the first three bachelors are canonically the same height and i DONT CARE!!!!!! So ♥️
This game contains mentions of… bugs lol
Speaking of bugs, the gifting mechanic is EXTREMELY buggy lol so if you find a bug there uh.. Yeah... give them to Pest
Mild language that the roblox censor conveniently blocks!!

All jokes aside, i only did Folly and Pest and i love them both, great job lad!
i forgot if i already commented on this but i love folly i love folly i love folly i love folly i love folly i love folly i love folly i love folly
Hi! I used RenPy :D While I can code on my own, why remake something that already exists hehe
I HIGHLY recommend RenPy if you want to make a VN! It's super easy to use and all around AWESOME
immediately beelined to the infected ending. squealed the whole time. 10/10 game cuz you can date infected
Can you make a 32 bits version?
Hi! Sorry it took me so long but I made a 32-bit version for you! I hope it works... I had to backtrack some versions down since renpy (what I used) doesn't support making 32-bit games anymore! But I had an older version of renpy that did still have the support, just had to rewrite some code to make it work... either way it's up now :] Have fun!
thanks! (AAAAAAA ^_^)
I love infected and pest i wish i could choose both💔
does anyone know what the last pic is? I did all routes and cant find the last pic T_T
Hello! If you didn't get it already, in Melanie's guide at the bottom I actually wrote how to get that specific CG :>
I LOVE INFECTED AND MELANIE GRAAAAHHHH 😍😍😍
This game is epic!!! I hope there will be updates and more characters in the future!
hooray i managed to make folly like me at the cost of making everyone else hate me :D
hell yes
this might be one of the best games ever created i thank you for creating this masterpiece i love folly
how to score 5 hearts for folly?? i only get 4, i chose the option of killing the centipede, but it didn't work.. :[
not trying to spoil it but maybe try being horrible (like folly)
i striked 0 hearts on all people was grumpy got called horrible killed centipede folly was impressed but she still dont GAF!!!!!!!!
and when you met folly did you already have one heart?
no
thx but i've already tried it and it doesnt work anyway..
Hey! Sorry for replying to this SO LATE but I made a guide specifically for folks like you who might struggle with Folly as a devlog! I put all the ways cuz there are multiple ways to do so :]
Short answer, don't kill the centipede :] I hope the guide can help you!
I dont know if its a bug on my end but I tried doing the completionist route multiple times and folly still starts with zero hearts, idk if I'm doing something wrong or?
I hate to be that person but did you update the game? The previous versions were slightly bugged (oops) which is why you should update to the newest version as stated in the guide!
I hope this helps :']
killing the centipede DOESNT give me an extra heart to folly grrrrrrr why
it didn't work for me either
INFECTED I LOVE YOU I'M GOING TO COMBUST
Vro How do i get 5 hearts on folly
u gotta start manifesting Folly 2 appear in your dreams obvi
