A short game description

It's "a motorbike simulation game based on a real physical model."
You drive on a motorbike through various terrain and you can do crazy things, saltos and so, as well.
You have to collect all the (possible) apples.
To end the level, find the flower, which marks the exit.
(So if there are no apples, you only have to find the flower)
Watch out for so called killers.
Don't try to touch them. If you do so, you'll die!
(Hint: It only works, when you touch it with your head or with the wheels. It means also by collecting apples you only take the apple when you touch it with head or wheel)

(Hint:All of the above mentioned can look different, when using different skins!)

Short history

About 1997 the great game of Across was born, created by the famous Balázs Rózsa. Maybe some of you remember the old DOS game Across. Yes? So, Elastomania is the new version of Across, with enhanced graphics, better performance, other new features, and more (old and new) levels.

Miscellaneous

You can create (or find on the Internet) your own cool levels Check out the build-in level editor.
(Hint: You must first complete 5 levels to be allowed to use the editor!)

If you want to know more about creating and managing levels, see Levels

If you're tired of the textures in the game, you can make your own skins(so called LGRs) with the LGR development kit (see downloads) or simply find some on the Internet
If you want to use for each level a different skin, you can make a lgrlist.txt file
To learn more about creating and managing LGRs, see LGRs

Another new feature is the Multiplayer game. You can now either try to compete with a friend or you can build a team and play together. So you can divide the job into two parts - each player makes one part (e.g.One player collects some apples, and the other player the rest). Elastomania runs also on UNIX systems (but it was no easy to work out on my system, but now it's ok). See how to do this here
