Stophat
A downloadable game for Windows and Android
Stophat is a charming arcade game about a rich man, his disobedient top hat and a falling golden lift.
Originally made in under 48 hours for the 14th gm(48) competition, Stophat is an imaginative take on the theme "top-down". There's some groovy bossa nova beats and Atari-style sound effects, dramatic lift-plummeting action™, and a play time of a whole 10 minutes.
"Why is he in a solid gold lift? Gold is heavy as hell, of course the lift is broken!" - Sir Julian Adams

havent played yet, went to download and it stopped me saying "stophat.exe is not commonly downloaded and may be dangerous" whats this about :O?
The game was made with an older version of gamemaker which triggers that prompt.
ookay!! tysm ^_^
kinda funny because my dog bit my butt as i was playing this so i had to say yeehaw yeehaw while playing and it was a big yahoo experience
I deeply appreciate the 'never again' on the second elevator door after you win. I feel it in my soul. I DID win though (first try even) and I had fun, so thanks.
I was SO CLOSE to beating it and then I started to wonder what happens if my hat goes off the screen...
I didn't win.
That was so close! 95 on your first attempt is great tho, i'm sure you'd beat it if you tried again
Simple enough little gyroscope-based arcade app (if you're playing on phone like I did). Entertaining enough to keep me going to the end. *Thumbs up*
Thank you :D
Beating this game was strangely satisfying. I wasn’t expecting it to get so challenging near the end
This is way too addictive. Ever consider adding a time trial mode? :D
Hahaha thanks, I considered updating it many times but never actually got around to doing it.
what eveb is this game. nothing makes sense. hilarious
Well, it's cool for playin' at a few mins, but begins borin' after that. Anyway, not bad for this little game :)
Windows 10 seems concerned about it, it acts as if it's suspected malware at first znd asks at every turn if I want to download it and then if I want to run it anyway despite the warnings it could be dangerous.
It be like that sometimes. I DL'd and played it and it seems fine to me!
This seems to be a problem with many older gamemaker games, I can assure you it's not malicious in any way though.
