Elasto Mania II Reviews

A true classic. Strong recommend

This is a blast from the past! I spent many an hour playing the first edition, and the new features in this second edition gives a great new dynamic to the game play. One thing though, I find my self missing the original motorcycle sounds, but maybe that's just part of the nostalgia I have for the first one.

It's not as good as Elma but it's still a good game. The new physics are fine, it feels like a mix between Elma and X-Moto. It's a little faster and feels a little different. Levels often have an optional second half to get the hidden helmet, which is a little weird because it becomes two levels pasted together.

Have only played the first one, Across, back in 1998 i think. But elma 2 is improved in both physics and fun elements. A really cool game to just put on for nostalgia and fun hehe

Different, unpredictable physics compared to first Elma. Not a deal breaker and it's still fun to play. Wish I could play it windowed... Game has no display settings whatsoever but at least it fills up 21:9 screen without distortions.

the original is king but this is fun for those who like bike games in general. it won't hold your attention for 20 years like the original though and the physics are pretty wonky.

Don't fix it if it ain't broken. It takes what makes the game great with some additional things to spice things up. For me it's a nostalgia trip and a great way to relax.

Well, the presentation is as simple as the original from 20 years ago, but there's some nice new bells and whistles, like Steam Leaderboards and Workshop-support. Most importantly, the gameplay still holds up!

A big disapointment. I just replayed the great old indi game Elasto Mania (level 50 now), and looked forward to this. Now this is NOT more of the same, this is not even worth playing: the physics feel glitchy, the graphics have turned from minimalist charme to ugly, the motorcycle and the level design feels much more casual overall. The gimmicky moving plattforms are nothing you'll ever miss. It took me only 15 minutes to realize that I don't want to play this. This might be an alpha version for another Elma game, until then you'll want to play the original Elasto Mania, not this!

I hate to be mean to small dev teams (or one man dev teams or w/e) because I know that even a game like this takes a long time to make, but the physics are pure trash. If there's one thing you should not have changed much from the original game its the physics. I don't even know what's going on but they are terrible. Elasto Mania original version (with EOL) is a fantastic game. This is not.
