# js13k 2024: Cursed Elevator

![Screenshot from the game.](cover_800x500.png?raw=true)

Entry for the [js13k competition of 2024](https://2024.js13kgames.com/).  

Theme: **Triskaidekaphobia** *(fear of the number 13)*

## Description

An interactive story about getting on a cursed elevator.  

But it seems you are not the first this happened to.  

Get to floor 13 … as often as you have to.

## Controls

* `[W][A][S][D]` / Arrow keys to look around

* `[R]` to reset the camera

* `[P]` to toggle Pointer Lock

* `[E][Enter]` / Mouse click to interact

* `[Escape][1]` to pause/unpause

## Why aren't you using the PointerLock API by default?

When the pointer is locked, the normal mouse event attributes like `clientX` or `screenY` etc. stop working. Instead `movementX` and `movementY` have to be used. But I found those to not be precise enough. Small mouse movements still fired the event, but both values were 0. This resulted in a juddery camera on slow movements and made being precise very hard. With Firefox it was worse than with Chromium.
