SuperGreenX’s New Album. BUY IT!

Posted in Flash Flash Revolution on February 6th, 200841 Comments »

SGX emerges from his slumber with “Hero of the Grey Area.” This is his most focused and cohesive album, focusing on instrumental pieces. SGX intersperses electro, breakbeat, and industrial beats between lush orchestrations, growling synth basses, and transporting soundscapes. “Hero” is at the same time electronic and synthetic plus natural and human.

For more information and to download some free full mp3′s from the album, visit the album page.

So keep sitting on your asses and buy his new album!

Digital (mp3 or flac) $4.99 | Disc $14.99(free shipping) direct from SGX
Digital ( mp3) $7.50 | Disc $14.50 from CDbaby.com
iTunes

Also expect more from SGX within FFR in the coming months.

I only have one question… Why has it taken FFR this long to find the music of Mika? Take a look not only at the outpouring of supportive comments but also the interesting take on his fresh electronic and pop sound that has been missing from FFR for some time..

Mika fills a certain void on FFR. His classic tracks like “Lollipop” very much remind me of the old DDR j-pop tracks. There is no denying the fun of this music and while they may only be widget based now, you can bet we are going to pull newer and harder versions into the game for you to conquer as soon as I can get Rebirth started on them this afternoon.

I am going to plug Mika here because I think he deserves our support. Please help me in leading an FFR invasion of his myspace to show our support. Feel free to leave comments stating you are from FFR. The image below will lead directly to his myspace page where you can check out his newest music, videos etc. LET THE INVASION BEGIN! (aka click on that huge image below. It is only a direct link to his myspace)

Enjoy!

Cheers,

Super Bowl FFR Credit Wagering!

Posted in FFR News on February 3rd, 2008188 Comments »

Have too many credits and want to gamble for more? Don’t have enough and want to risk what you have for more? Starting at 2pm EST, we’ll have a page set up for Super Bowl wagering. We’ll be using a 12 points spread (which is explained on the page, if you don’t know what a spread is). Winners will be paid out slightly less than 2x their money.

We will edit this page with a link once it’s finished. A bit last minute, but better later than never! So get your credits ready for your wager on either the Patriots or Giants.

-Tass & LD

All done!  Have fun during the superbowl!

More new subscriber features!

Xelius is hard at work, as always, to bring to life everyone’s ideas. The newest feature on the subscriber version of the game is merely a letter… but it is so much more. In the upper left hand corner, next to the Quality Q is a Song Selection S. If you click on the S, it will bring up a giant scrollable list of all songs in FFR… each one playable via a single click. Currently, the songs are listed in reverse order by reverse genre (hardest songs in Misc first, easiest songs in Dance last). This will be resolved tomorrow, but we couldn’t wait to get this feature live for everyone to test out.

And for everyone else, we understand you’re getting jealous. Do not fear! Many of these feature will become public in the very near future.

The Greatest Night in the History of Our Sport. Testing AvMiss Fix

The title is correct. We having a working solution for a feature (fix) that users have been asking about for approximately 5 years. Omg 5 years… Xelius has been hard at work squashing the AvMiss bug and he looks to be successful. Yes, he has been sifting through unimaginable amounts of tangled and twisted FFR code (I feel bad for the guy). His efforts are nothing short of miraculous and his results are fantastic.

We had a preview tonight but starting tomorrow morning we will be inviting all beta tester (aka subscribers) to come in and experience this new version and note down any bugs you may find. I suspect the results will change FFR scores dramatically. We still have not decide what steps to take in how to handle scores but we will be organizing and sifting through all the subscriber suggestions in order to come up with a solution quickly.

I ask that if you want to help Xelius eat and pay his rent (and help us with our costs) that you subscribe. He has been working insane hours on FFR lately and even more improvements are on their way. As always, we can use as many extra beta testers as possible. For those of you who are already a subscriber, thank you. You all make a huge difference in what we are capable of.

Cheers,

Synthlight + Thanks to Xelius

New FFR Features in Testing for Subscribers!

Posted in Flash Flash Revolution on January 26th, 2008139 Comments »

Some of you may have already seen the following information from Xelius in the forum. For those you who have not, enjoy. Xelius has been working hard on developing FFR 2nd Style updates and refinements.

It’s the day you all been waiting for, some of the most asked for features have been put together in one big update. Before I list them, I would like to thank Nestlekwik and Tass for putting this list together, without them it wouldn’t have been possible. These are subscriber only features for now while we go through testing, available through this link: http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/FFR_the_Beta.php

Key Configuration: This is where you map your keys, simple mouse click one of the fields and you’ll be asked to input a key.

MP Opponent Masking: This gives you the option to mask out the opponents arrows during multiplayer games. “Arrows” masks out the arrows, but you’ll still be able to see his ratings. “Full” mask out his whole side.

Cookies: All settings will be saved with cookies, meaning it will default to your last settings when you start the game. Who told you you could set my coOkiEs!? (inside joke)  ———————————————————————–
Page Navigation: Simply click the page you want to go to and it will take you there.

———————————————————————–
Chat on/off: If you don’t want to get interrupted during a multiplayer game, turning of the chat could be a good idea.

———————————————————————–
There is still plenty on the list. Expect more updates soon!

Hope you enjoy! :)

The FFR Happy-Meal Bonanza Contest

Posted in Spontaneous Contests on January 24th, 2008106 Comments »

The contest is over and all of the entries have been reviewed! Unfortunately, I removed all entries that depict violence toward nestlekwik and all users who yearned for Tass to ride nestlekwik were disqualified, so nobody won today’s contest … Just kidding.

The powers that be have chosen Sir_Thomas’s contest entry as the winner of the contest. We’ll be contacting you to receive your information for the prize. Every one did a great job and it’s great to know so many people are eager to embarass me. We’ve re-opened the thread in the case people wish to post more on their own time (and so they can check out Xelius’s Ahn0ld entry).

Thanks for staying up with FFR and keep checking back for more news and contests!
