Options
Options is a menu screen with settings that players can change to modify the gameplay experience of Friday Night Funkin'. It was officially added in the Week 7 update, but a prototype build of the Week 6 update had an early version of it that was non-functional.
Preferences
- Naughtyness
- When turned off, it censors or replaces some vulgar or explicit content in the game, such as Senpai's vulgar line in the Roses cutscene or Boyfriend's "Perfect" rank animation on the Results screen.
- Downscroll
- When turned on, the arrow markers are placed at the bottom of the screen, and notes scroll down from the top. The health bar and the score counter underneath it are now placed at the top of the screen.
- Strumline Background
- Controls the opacity of the background for the strumlime; the value goes from 0% to 100%, in increments of 10%.
- Flashing Lights
- When turned off, some flashing effects will be dampened or disabled.
- Camera Zooms
- When turned off, the camera will not bounce to the beat of the song.
- Debug Display
- Toggles the FPS and RAM counters visible in the top left corner of the screen. In web browser versions of the game, only the FPS counter is displayed.
- Pause on Unfocus
- When turned on, leaving the window will automatically pause the game until the player clicks back into it.
- Launch in Fullscreen
- If enabled, the game is automatically set to fullscreen mode on startup.
- VSync
- When turned on, the game attempts to match the framerate with the monitor's refresh rate.
- Unlocked Framerate
- Exclusive to the web browser versions of the game, turning this on removes the FPS limit, allowing the game to run on framerates much higher than 60.
- FPS
- Exclusive to the desktop versions of the game, the player can set the framerate limit themselves, from 30 all the way to 500, in increments of 5.
- Hide Mouse
- Hides the mouse cursor when taking a screenshot of the game via the in-game screenshot function.
- Fancy Preview
- When turned on, a preview of the player's screenshot will be shown.
- Preview on Save
- When turned on, the preview of a screenshot will only be shown if it's saved.
- Haptics (Mobile only)
- When turned on, the game uses haptic feedback. The player also has the choice to only apply haptic feedback to notes, or turn the option off entirely.
- Haptics Intensity (Mobile Only)
- Sets the intensity of the haptic feedback effects, from 0.1 to 5, in increments of 0.1.
Controls
This menu lets players choose which buttons and keys correspond with which actions in-game. There are sections for the notes, the UI, cutscenes, Freeplay, the game window, volume, and debug menus (Chart Editor, Stage Editor, Animation Editor). Players are able to choose secondary options for every control setting, allowing two buttons to be used for the same action.
Lag Adjustment
This menu allows one to change the offset of the notes to compensate for audio or input delay. The offset can either be set manually or have it automatically calibrated with "Offset Calibration", where the player must continuously press the up arrow to the beat to check what offset is needed, before testing the new offset separately under "Test".
Login/Logout of NG
This option lets users sign in or sign out of their Newgrounds account (if they have one).
Save Data Options
This menu, available only when connected to Newgrounds, lets users save their current game data to their account, load it back on any build, or delete either the local or account-linked save data.
Clear Save Data
This option erases all the game's save data. This option also sets all preferences and controls back to their default values. This is only accessible if the user is not logged in to Newgrounds.
Gallery
Early version of the Options menu in a pre-release Week 6 build that was accidentally leaked. Only key binding configuration is present, and attempted key binding changes will never go through, leaving the player stuck if they try to change anything.
