About

Need For Madness (NFM) is a 3D Java browser Racing Game developed by Omar Waly, as part of his company, Radical Play. Because of it's popularity, it received a sequel and an added online multiplayer mode.
The multiplayer and single player game is now available for download for Windows, Mac and Linux systems.[1]

Origin

Shoes 2003-2008

Maniac Racers (2003-2008)

The game is a spiritual successor to an earlier game made by the Radical Play founder Omar Waly, called Maniac Racers, a 2D top-down racing game that was available to play on the Radical Play website from 2003 to 2008.[2]

The concept of the game paved the way for the future game to be made in the form of a 3D java coded racing game.

Gameplay

With it's simple 3D graphics, this along with it's sequel and multiplayer mode, you're given a selection of cars to choose to race varying from different performances and sizes to take part on a deserted race track full of obstacles.

You have two ways to win the race, you either go through all the checkpoints in order and finish in first place, or to smash the other opponents until they get wasted.

Personal Touch

"This game was the shit like For real. This made my childhood and it was the icing on the cake for me. Throwback to when life was awesome and games didn't suck are 11 stages in total and are listed at the bottom of this article. It is ultimately your decision to race or waste. Racing refers to passing and clearing all checkpoints. Clearing all the checkpoints in the proposed order will complete a lap. Finishing all the laps in first place is a way to complete the stage and unlock even more stages. Every two stages completed will unlock a new car. Wasting refers to smashing and crashing into opponents by making contact with their car. The three cars that dominates the game include: El King, Radical One and Dr. Monstaa."Need For Madness?

NFM, 1, 2 and Online Multiplayer

The first game features around 11 challenging stages with each one having a main boss to beat in the race in order to unlock their car out of the ten car list.

It's sequel, Need For Madness? TooOo? (NFM2) is an updated and more difficult version of the original game with 17 stages and extra cars (e.g: Kool Kat, Drifter X, M A S H E E N) with updated, more complex visuals.[4]

Need For Madness Multiplayer allows you make or join clan groups and pit against other players in any of the stages of the first two games and in custom tracks either made by you or by other users using the Stage Maker.
You are also able to create your own custom car from scratch with it's own unique characteristics to share and drive online with Car Maker.

Multiplayer Updates

Until February 2015, the multiplayer game had been going through multiple updates since it's release in 2011 to fix and improve the game's elements and features, bug and glitch fixes, along with the original two single player games added and ability to make cars and stages and never ending championship for clan groups to compete with were added later in the game.[5]

Steam Release

The multiplayer game was released on Steam on 26 February 2015, but was removed later on 2 March 2015. The reason of the game's removal from Steam was due to a violation of terms and agreements as it did not implement the Steam mechanism for the in-game purchase of the game. [5]
A day after the removal, Omar has stated that he is attempting to correct this and get the game back on Steam.[6]

Online Presence

Few YouTubers dedicated to the game, such as Ultimato, showcase some online events of the multiplayer mode.[7]
