First let me welcome you to our world, we are glad you're here and hope that you enjoy your stay. Welcome to EleMental! Where you control the world! If your reading this it means that we are opening our doors to you a touch earlier than most, so not everything is quite where we want it yet but we are working on it. If you find something that you think is a bug then please tell us about it and we will do everything we can to correct it. With your help we can create a better game.

Now lets get down to the fun part: How to play. First off you have a decision to make, do you want your game controller's “Y” view axis to be inverted? This means that when you press up on the right analog stick your character will look down and vice-versa. Give both systems a try and see what you like best. Press start to advance to the player setup screen. Here you can select Player1 and Player2's avatar colors. Again you press start to advance. Our control scheme is pretty simple the 360 controller and PC versions are listed below.

At present only the earth and water attacks are working however more will be coming along shortly. Also only the basic attacks are currently working so you can't do anything really flashy yet however that is coming very soon.

Your goal is simply to eliminate all of the other players. You can accomplish this with either of your two attacks. You need to watch your mana reserves as every time you attack you deplete it. If you run out of mana you will have to wait for it to passively recharge. To defend yourself you can set and activate powerful elemental shields to nullify incoming attacks. You can also alter the world around you by raising or lowering the terrain (Earth element area of effect). This allows you to create cover, mazes or obstructions as you desire.
