Nadeo (map style)

Nadeo (often stylised as nadeo or NADEO) is a map style predominantly used in the official campaign of the game TrackMania Nations Forever. Appearing rather simplistic at first, the tracks take an unexpected turn towards a more complex, story-driven approach in the later stages of the campaign.

Widely regarded as some of the finest maps ever built in the game, the Nadeo-style maps have received numerous awards in a variety of map building competitions.

White Series
You, as "The Player", arrive at A01-Race in the cold, siberian tundra. Your goal? Revenge. You know what they did to you and your family, and all that matters to you is vengeance. A01-Race is a formidable foe, but alas, your plot armour is indestructible.

As "The Player", you breeze through the first few maps, that are all of completely no threat upon encountering the next big obstacle. And it was not only in the name, as A06-Obstacle nearly proved to be the last stop on your journey, this early on.

You kept progressing through the white series and at some points it would seem like nothing could stop your routing to E05-Endurance, however the very last track, A15-Race, was another tough nut to crack. Gathering the assistance of the MudBug, our hero was able to continue their journey unscathed.

Green Series
The lush landscapes and gentle wind of the green series was an amazing repose for "The Player", after having encountered many adversaries in the white series tundra and ice. Yet, with all the rest, there must be hard work, which awaited you at the gates of B13-Race.

After a short bit of practice though, your skills were sharp and unmatched, and thus the grassy landscapes have come to their end.

Blue Series
In the region of aqua, sometimes referred to as the "blue series" in the community, "The Player" had another test of courage waiting for them.

Many bodies of water there were nothing short of dangerous, not allowing the weak trespassers to complete their goals, which weirdly enough, seemed to align with those that you, "The Player" have set for yourself at the very start.

Nevertheless, may it be the plot armour, or perchance, actual skill, you were not only able to traverse the dangerous landscapes of the blue series, but also kept rushing towards your objective in one piece.

Yellow Series
The yellow series take place in a hot, hot desert landscape. "The player" will here test his resilience and determination, through long and repetitive maps, such as Ç05-Endurance or Ç11-Endurance. Maps here will often feature very wide turns, long straight lines, confusing pathfinding and, if lucky, some helpful structures. This tiring sequence of maps climaxes at Ç-15 Race, a 12-minute intense nascar-like track, that will leave "the player" exhausted but nonetheless freed from this scorching place, but just to join another...

Red Series
Red series, sometimes dubbed the land of fire, showed you that the hardest of challenges were only yet to come.

Despite being fully ready for those, you still had the weird thoughts of potential failure follow you around, which would in turn slow down some of your progress, but what matters is the result at hand.

Mind-boggling volcanoes of D01-Endurance, magmatic lands of D04-Obstacle, fiery rain of D10-Race, and, of course, the neverending temperature nightmare of D15-Endurance were all a highlight of "The Player"'s incredible skill and determination.

Black Series
Arriving at the void where dreams are crushed into nothingness, you stepped upon the black series territory. Death lingers at every step here, and with such difficult maps.. "Is there really any point" - "The Player" asked themselves, knowing the correct answer perfectly well. Clear in their mind, they annihilate the Speed Demon of E01-Obstacle in but a single blow.

E02-Endurance & E03-Endurance were some real tear-jerkers, with you having your ups and downs on the various sections of both of those maps. They, however, stood no chance against "The Player" - you, who's honed their skills via hard work and dedication.

The Climax
At long last.. There it is. E05-Endurance. The final stop of your seemingly endless adventure. The point of no return. You go big or you go home, in the nation of nihility and inexistence there are no other rules. It was a long battle, taking you to your limit, but you, as "The Player" felt no fear. Throughout your trip you have encountered more things than some people will encounter in their lifetime. You knew, there was no giving up. With the final push, you have finally reached your ultimate destination and have beaten E05-Endurance, or, Nadeo as a whole - exacting the long awaited revenge and taking back your dignity.
