Ninjamuffin99 has put together a game called Friday Night Funkin’ that is similar to PaRappa the Rapper and Dance Dance Revolution. The game can be played on flash-based sites or downloaded for PC through Newgrounds and Itch.io native stores.
The current game prototype was released on November 15, 2020; the full game has not been released. (As of this date, the full game has not been fully release).
Gameplay
The game is similar to typographic machines in that you press specific keys and the computer or another player does the same. Whoever has more points wins, and if you don’t press the correct key in time and/or fail to hit it, this will make you lose points.
Story
If you're looking to get along with your girlfriend's father, he has put you under pressure to beat him at the same game. Although it will be difficult to out-sing a former rockstar, it is possible. It seems that even after you have finished with his dumbass it will still be difficult to out-sing an ex-rockstar.
Friday Night Funkin Characters
You'll see characters that are:
Boyfriend (Protagonist)
Daddy Dearest {Father} (Antagonist)
Girlfriend (Support Character)
Skid and Pump (Antagonist)
Pico (Antagonist)
Monster (Antagonist)
MILF {Mother} (Antagonist)

Boyfriend
The protagonist of Friday Night Funkin’ is a boy with no confirmed name that constantly gets into trouble and sings off with people.
Our boyfriend is confirmed to be scared of thunder, because when he was not rapping during Skid & Pump's level, his sprite changed to discomfort due to the sound of thunder.
Many fans claim he resembles Hatsune Miku because of his voice's Vocaloid-like quality and blue hair.
Daddy Dearest
Daddy Dearest is the father and antagonist in Week 1. The main protagonist, the Boyfriend has to rap against Father in order to impress him and get his approval as his daughter's boyfriend. Daddy Dearest's songs are Bopeebo, Fresh, Dad Battle. Daddy Dearest is confirmed by name "Luis".
Girlfriend
Girlfriend is part of the core story, and she was seen sitting on the boombox while her rival tried to steal, protect or kill her. The tutorial shows you how to play. It was confirmed that Girlfriend likes Cherry Dr Pepper by ninja_muffin99's tweet. She’s afraid of thunder, seen in a split frame from the Week 2 stage. She can also cry occasionally when you fail to hit a note during 10 combo. In the Week 3 stage, GF will have her hair blowing in the air as she passes by trains passing by on different tracks at night!
Skid and Pump
Skid and Pump are two unplayable characters from the second week of the game. Their songs are "Spookeez" and "South." Skid wears a skeleton costume, while Pump is dressed in pumpkin attire..
Skid, with a black suit and white head, sits atop the word Pump and holds up a microphone in his left hand. Skid is wearing a drawing of ribs on his suit that extends from shoulder to hip.
The pumpkin-faced Pump wears a black suit as well as white gloves and a white collar. On his head, he has the typical features of a pumpkin-two eyes that are carved out in front of each eye hole.
These two characters from an annual series, which is done by a Youtuber named Sr Pelo called Spooky Month to celebrate Halloween each year are not afraid of the spooks and shenanigans they get up to.
Pico
Pico is an antagonist in Week 3, his tracks include Pico, Philly and Blammed.
He has orange round-ish hair, green shirt and light brown trousers. He is also holding a microphone and an UZI or MAC-10. His jokes about him being exes with the Boyfriend were joked about to be true before he confirmed it was a joke again. There is a strong collaboration with TomFulp in the creation of Pico. The game has an animated character and he also appears as one if you reverse the source code (which would be interesting to try!).
