Core Gameplay

• Hit the Beats: Arrows will float up the screen. When they align with the fixed outlines at the top, press the corresponding key to strike a note.
• The Tug-of-War: Look at the bar at the bottom. Accuracy pushes your icon to the right (winning), while misses allow your opponent to push you to the left (losing). If the bar turns completely red, it's Game Over!
• Combos: Consecutive hits increase your score and keep your momentum high.

Game Modes

• Story Mode: The ultimate campaign. Play through the Tutorial, Weeks 1-7, Weekend 1, and the sp.Collab1 crossover. Rise from a rookie to a legend as you face off against Daddy Dearest, Skid & Pump, Pico, Mommy Mearest, and more!
• Free Play: No pressure, just music. Pick any track from the library to practice your skills or enjoy the bops without the story progression.

Difficulty Levels

• Easy: Perfect for beginners. Timing windows are wide, and you only lose minimal progress for misses.
• Normal: The standard experience. Timing becomes more critical—hitting notes too early or late will lower your score.
• Hard: For rhythm veterans only! Requires absolute precision and high-speed reflexes.

Game Controls

• Arrows: W/A/S/D or ↑/←/↓/→.
• Menu: Enter to confirm, ESC to go back/pause.

Is Friday Night Funkin too hard for a rhythm game beginner?

Not at all! Every pro started at Week 1 on Easy. The game’s difficulty curve is very fair. Start with the Tutorial to get used to the sync, and don't be afraid to stick to Easy mode until your fingers catch up to the beat.

I'm stuck on Week 7/Weekend 1! What can I do?

These tracks are notorious for their high speed. Here are two pro-tips:

• Free Play Grind: Repetition is key. Practice the specific songs in Free Play to memorize the patterns.
• Practice Mode: Pause the game with ESC and enable Practice Mode. This allows you to play through the entire song without failing, no matter how many notes you miss. It's the best way to learn the hard parts!

Can I change the keybindings?

Yes! If WASD or Arrows don't feel right, head to the Options menu from the main screen. You can fully customize your key layout (like DFJK or AskL) to find the most comfortable setup for your hands.
