What Is VS 8-BitRyan?

How to Play Friday Night Funkin’ VS 8-BitRyan

The gameplay follows standard Friday Night Funkin’ mechanics:

• Arrows scroll toward stationary markers
• Press the matching arrow keys or WASD at the correct time
• Hold long notes until they end
• Miss too many notes and your health bar drains

Accuracy, timing, and rhythm awareness are the keys to winning. As the songs progress, patterns become faster and more complex.

Songs in VS 8-BitRyan Mod

The mod includes three original tracks, each increasing in difficulty:

1. Beatdown-Bop – A fun and upbeat introduction that eases players into the mod
2. Kingin’ It – Faster rhythms and more complex note patterns
3. The-Next-Video – The final challenge with intense beats and rapid sequences

Each song has its own unique vibe and keeps the energy high throughout the week.

Story-Modus

In Story-Modus, you face 8-BitRyan across all three songs in a single run. To complete the week, you must survive every track without losing all your health. The mod includes short dialogue scenes that add humor and personality to the matchup.

Free Play Mode

All songs can be replayed individually in Free Play, making it easy to:

• Practice difficult sections
• Improve accuracy and score

Health and Scoring System

• The health bar works as a tug-of-war meter
• Correct notes push the bar toward your side

• Empty health ends the song immediately

Scoring depends on timing precision:

Harder songs reward higher scores if played well.
