Evaluation

Element4l launched on May 24, 2013 as a complete indie platformer. After launch, the developer shipped one major free expansion — the RACE Expansion on October 16, 2013 — adding 16 race levels with online ghost functionality. This was followed by a feature patch in March 2014 (Update 1.2, adding a help system and localization improvements) and a final bug fix patch on April 8, 2014 (version 1.2.3). The store description confirms the Lap Races DLC is already included in the base game. No content has been announced or released since April 2014, and the developer has made no communications of any kind since that date. There are no unreleased DLC listings, no roadmaps, and no statements indicating further development. The game launched as a finished product and received post-launch support through April 8, 2014, after which development concluded.

About this game

Element4l is an immersive and experimental indie platform game, with a strong focus on flow and smooth gameplay, wrapped in an exceptional soundtrack by Mind Tree.

In Element4l, you control four elements who are bound together on a journey to shape life. Your only hindrances are nature and the sun. It takes a different, innovative approach to classic platform games and challenges you to rearrange your reflexes.

Element4l is a challenge. The first time you play it, you will struggle... just like the first time you've learned how to ride a bike.
