FNF

I first played Friday Night Funkin' when it was super popular a while back. Pressing the arrow keys to the beat seems simple, but it's actually way harder than it looks lol. I initially just wanted to try a few easy songs, but once you start hitting the notes in sequence to the rhythm, it really pulls you in and makes you focus. It's especially cool when you hear a song for the first time, play it a few times, and the melody starts to feel familiar. Then, it's like you can suddenly see the beat, and landing a combo through a tough section feels amazing lol. On the flip side, messing up at the very end and breaking a combo is so frustrating that you just have to try again immediately. The characters and unique art style are really distinctive and fun to look at, but honestly, the music is what kept me playing. I thought it'd be a casual rhythm game at first, but it surprisingly brings out the competitive spirit in you lol.
