Nooo, how did you get stuck? There's a bug where if you pause when inside a trigger, it makes it to think the Player exited the trigger when you didn't, this might cause the next area from the elevator to not load... Haven't had the time to figure a workaround but I'll get back to it soon enough!
Thank you for the kind words, sorry for the bug :(
