A puzzle game where you must avoid the doing the most awkward of things: facing someone while riding an elevator

You know when you follow someone into the elevator and when they turn around to face the doors, you choose to stand still and instead meet their eyes? No, of course you don't. Everyone knows that when you're in a lift you don't under any circumstances face other people in the lift unless you know them and you're already in a conversation. Just yesterday I got into the lift with someone I sit one desk over from in the office. I dutifully looked at my phone the entire time until we were safely out of the building. Well, in the puzzle game How To Ride Elevators Like A Human you play a helpful alien who saves people who have accidentally ended up in the dreadful situation of facing one another.

Each short puzzle takes place in a compact lift where one (or several) humans are starting at each other. Using your small UFO's tractor beam, you must pick up and relocate the passengers until no one is making eyes at anyone else. You may well recognise this as a sokoban-style puzzle game, but, despite retreading familiar ground, I'm a big fan of this extraterrestrial framing. Even if I have an ulterior motive for sharing this game...
