New Minor Revision Update To Be Released in 24 Hours or Less

I have a few new songs and a few new sections going live within the next 24 hours. If you were thinking about wrapping up those .dwi files for inclusion, now is the time to send them in. I could hint that the new songs would be available tonight but I cannot promise that.

FFR Popularity Is Sky Rocketing!

A little over a month ago I stumbled across Flash Flash Revolution in the forums on ddrfreak.com. Curious, and not knowing what it was, I ventured into the site and quickly became addicted. I have seen this site grow, and its populatiy too. As I type, there are 125 guests and 10 Users online. I remember, not too long ago, when the average people online was 8.
FFR has even been featured on www.ddrmaniax.net (a DWI dedicated site).
I applaud the efforts of everyone who helped make this fun, yet addicting, game possible.

AT LONG LAST!!! THE BEAST ARRIVES!!

Yes indeed.. The first version of the downloadable beta is ready to fly and in the Downloads section. Please be kind to our baby. (but don’t forget you can still play online)

You will need to register with the site if you want to be on the public beta for this version. Registration takes about 1-2 minutes and you are instantly approved.

I am just glad that we finally reached a point where we could offer a downloadable version. Thanks to everyone who has helped get those bugs out and stuck around even when the site looked like.. well… you know what I am talking about.

The downloadable version is IDENTICAL to the online version only it allows you to play just the very first 4 songs. This keeps from having to download a huge file. As the beta matures, we will release more and more songs from the online version. As well as new flavors of the downloadable version that can have it’s songs changed.

Current downloadable version is Beta .43 and for PC only.

Mac version to arrive asap.

Go register and play! good luck!Btw, the internet scoring for this version still works but is not connected to the same set of scores as the online version.

The Thirst for Competition

I was thinking tonight.. which is very unlike me.

I was thinking about having online competitions with prizes. Maybe a 2 hour open competition on a new song for the week. At the end of the 2 hours, the person with the highest score wins the prize/money/status . Maybe we have a minimum entry fee and the money is held in a paypal account? The winner gets 100% of the money sent to him/her?

How about some ideas? Feel free to post your comments. I am pretty much brainstorming at this point.

Hi-Score Reset time

There will be a reset on the HI-Scores within 1 hour due to popular demand. Good luck to everyone.

*EDIT* Scores have been reset.. Have fun!

*EDIT* It took exactly 5 minutes for dance song #1 to have all top 50 spots filled in the hi-score list.

Downloadable Beta Version Available Within 48 Hours

You can play FFR online without registration, but for those of you who are interested….. We will be releasing a beta version for download (local play) of FFR. You will NEEED to be REGISTERED in order to access the download section. Registration is free, quick, private, and we never give out any of your personal information to 3rd parties.

Once you are logged in you will see a download section on the lefthand side. Within that download section you will have an area for songs and an area for FFR Download Beta.

This beta version will be available within the next 48 hours or you can twist my arm and call me late for dinner.In this first version we may include uncompressed graphics/backgrounds etc. I will have to see what time allows.

Here Comes Santa Claus

“The secret song is to eaasssyy” “The secret song is to slooooww”

Ok.. I hear your needs and wants.. Another secret song arrives on FFR tonight and is available right now.

Have fun!

Remix #2 in the Works

For those of you who have not been following in the forums, we have an FFR Remix #2 (version 2) in the works here. Remix #2 will be a completely rewritten engine with all new songs. The first version will always be available and may still go through some updates. We will still release the first FFR for download as an .exe when the time comes.

Before we move on, we may add a Dance #2 and Rock Genre to the original remix. It all depends on when we get the tunes/steps in from people.
We have been busy trying to add a few features and patch the old version up while rewriting a massive portion of the core engine for Remix #2. BPRC has been very busy working on the new engine and I think everyone will be pleased when it is finished.
There is a feature list a mile long but this may take awhile to implement. As time goes on I will give updates and possibly post features that have been included.
When this version is ready for testing/release we will have a link available to play Remix #2 but will always keep the original remix available to play also.

If you have any feature requests besides “make it more like DDR”, please post a comment here or in the discussion forum and we will consider including in Remix #2

WHOOPS!

Seems that I made a little error in FFR tonight.. When I fixed the Arcade Song #5 I accidentally put all the other songs off by about a single beat. This has been fixed.
