Ups and Downs is mobile game where you play as an elevator in a busy building. The game works similarly to the ios game dreeps, as in it doesn't require very much playing. The elevators go up and down by themselves and all you do is upgrade the elevators and add more floors. You can talk to people on the elevators some of them will not want to talk to you but some will but. When they get to their floor they will get off, you might be able to see them later maybe if you came back at the same time tomorrow. As your building gets bigger the time people will be on the elevators will increase and you will have more time to talk to them. You have the power to stop the elevators for awhile but when you do the people in the elevators will stop talking to you and you won't talk to you again until the elevator starts again.

This will stall the player until he is able to put it off again. Players will be able to swing their big ships at the other players tito h them. This will make for fun accidents when people come around corners together.
