Go to correct Elma folder. If you delete the tutor levels they won't be shown in Elma after restarting the game. So you deleted them elsewhere.

Are the levels names in the correct form? Not too long and no special characters, i mean?

Not right, only levels with max 5 polygons and some more things can be played in the shareware...

so to make it sure u play the correct elma, go to the directory and check inside the LEV folder and see the .lev files in there (that you most likely have done because of u had deleted the tutor levels) then start elma.exe there and not from any shortcut.

You are talking about the registered version of elma I guess? Shareware would have problems with the levels on the internet.

Then if yes, you should reinstall your elastomania,or try create an own level and save it and play it ..etc..

If you still have problems umh ,what operating system do you have? win98 etc... ?
