Map Info
Environment: Farmland
Setting: Night

Shadows is an unreleased community-made Halloween-themed Mann vs. Machine map. It takes place on a dairy farm surrounded by endless darkness. It was the only new map introduced by Potato's Custom MvM Servers for the Memes vs Machines Tour exclusively for the event. It came with an Intermediate mission also named Shadows.

Locations

Pastures

Three different areas in total darkness where robots spawn on some waves. Players, for the most part, cannot see the spawning robots except for muzzle flashes, projectiles, status effects and the bomb carrier's outline. The robots, however, can see the players no problem. It's recommended to use Pyro in these sections, as its fire will help identify robots in the dark.

  • West: The pasture west of spawn is mostly empty, with a low fence blocking robot entry and a tractor. It enters into a farm.
  • North: The pasture north of spawn is also empty, but with much more "dark space," making identifying robots a bit harder.
  • East: The pasture east of spawn, while still mostly being empty, now has a combine and a few hay stacks blocking projectiles and can be used as platforms.

Corn field

The corn, as well as darkness, partially obscures the player's vision, but does not seem to affect their weapons or movement in any way. In the middle of this corn field is a tractor, which has run over some of the corn allowing for partial vision. This is south of spawn.

Bomb hatch =

The bomb hatch is located in the middle of a manure lagoon, north of spawn.
