Friday Night Funkin' is a 2020 free-to-play rhythm game developed by animator and artist PhantomArcade and evils8kr, music composer Kawai Sprite, and programmer
ninjamuffin99. The main inspirations were Dance Dance Revolution and
PaRappa the Rapper. In the game, you play as the blue-haired protagonist, "Boyfriend." Similar to PaRappa the Rapper, Boyfriend must compete in rap battles against a variety of characters/people to be able to date his love interest, "Girlfriend." The game plays out in "Weeks." Weeks often contain 3 songs, but Week 2 is the only Week to have only two songs. Also similar to Dance Dance Revolution, the ability to process notes is through your Arrow Keys on a keyboard. You can also choose your difficulty before each week, Easy, Normal, and Hard. As of today (
March 30th 2021,) the game has only 6 weeks with an upcoming 7th week.
Person 1: "Yo, have you played Friday Night Funkin' yet? The game gives me such
90's vibes!"
Person 2: "Yes, I have! Week 6 is my favorite, I think it has the best songs out of all the
weeks!"
