Hello folks!
I am not a speedrunner myself but I watch a lot of speedrun content. I was recently going through a 20 year old hard drive and I found a game I haven't thought about since I was in high school: Elastomania. It's an indie motocross/trials game using extremely simple polygons, but the actual mechanics are very difficult to master. (It's very addictive. Just going back into the game after all this time I spent a good hour on it.) The main scoring criteria is time, down to the ms. Since this is the perfect speedrun game (low skill floor, high skill ceiling) I thought it would be the perfect candidate for SDA, but I was surprised that nobody has ever run it. I guess it is probably mostly unknown, since it came out in 2000, although there are a couple mentions of it on this forum from about 2002.
So,I would like to share the game with you and put forth the challenge to speedrun Elastomania! I would love to see some pros optimize the game.
Here is the game:

This link contains the individual folder, but I also compressed it all into a single rar for easier downloading.
I have scanned with Comodo and Bitdefender just to be safe.
Let me know what you think!
