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?

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

Love the endings, especially E and D. I NEED MORE
Oh my god i actually cant wait for the andriod/IOS versions to come out 😭😭
BEST TWO HOURS OF MY LIFE,,,,, THSI IS FIRE
The greatest 3 hours of gameplay ever conceived... they would NOT fucking do that, love it
Also, I was doing my first playthrough in vc with a friend and I used their name instead of mine, so the part when Folly used my actual name genuinely shocked me LOL
No walter 0 stars (jk this game was really funny i liked it alot)
is it possible to make it available for ChromeOS?
ChromeOS is basically gentoo, just make it work
Also, pressing "I Understand" doesn't seem to work when running the game through the .sh file
I thought there was a subfolder and now everything is mixed in with my other files god fuicking damn it
PEAKKKKK this is blessing to the fandom thank you. pest is so fine
can i date bive
100%'d the game just to date Folly
my beloved
How'd you do it?
When you are with pest, Theres a option that says "Why is there a centipede in the railing" If you click, It will appear a option that says "Kill on sight" Touch it, If you click, You should start with one heart with folly.
Thanks
How do I get Melanie..🙏🙏🙏 I want the rabbit. I need it. Ive tried... so hard... I need this. 🙏
get everyone to 5 hearts
thank you. thank you so much.
nearly had a physical heart attack seeing folly's ending like my chest feels funny thank u op from the bottom of my silly selfshipper heart <3
HOW?
I didn't go in expecting much, but it's safe to say I thoroughly enjoyed myself. For a game made as a joke, I can tell a lot of thought and effort was put into it from the story to the art. And, speaking of the art, do these spectacular artists post anywhere? I would love to give them a follow on other platforms! Wonderful work :)
TYSM!!! The cover art is midnight-moodlet who's on tumblr and bluesky, the rest of the art is made by me (vanillamoontea) and I got a tumblr, twitter and bluesky, so pick your poison!I'm glad you enjoyed the game!
Great! I'll go ahead and give you both a follow <3
last bachelor made me fumble, freeze and freak out omg I love my wife AHAHAHAHAHHA
I REALLY LOVED ENDING E for a second I thought Melanie wasn't an option but SHE WAS AND I WAS SO PLEASED HADSHDASKHASKDADKSH anyway 10/10 game time to get the folly ending..
Just got ending E
Sex update when
Thats a joke btw, since i wrote it, i have no idea if it looks like its a joke but it is
I guess its not really funny though

YAYYY TYSM!!! IM SUPER GLAD CUZ I WORKED REAL HARD ON THOSE ENDINGS :D
ALSO YOURE... WELCOME FOR THE UNPLEASANT CONTENT... HELPPP:LD:KFES
HOW DO I GET FOLLY TO ALL HEARTS PLEASEE
WELL she is the being of malice... maybe taking a wrong answer here and there on the others might help...
You piss off pest by killing a centipede, it gives you an extra heart at the beginning of the minigame
Not the only way to get Folly's heart! There's actually multiple ways to get her extra heart, experiment around, she says something different each time ;]
