    a mode that uses more than 4 arrows

    this isn't a huge request, just a casual "hey, this would be cool" sort of thing. anyways, i thought it would be cool if there was a mode that uses 6 or 8 buttons, kinda like solo or doubles from DDR. if this ever does get added to FFR, it'll be a long way down the road, but i figured i'd go ahead and see what everybody thinks of this.

    many people say the songs are all too easy and such, but i bet not many people have ever tried doubles in stepmania. it makes everything ALOT harder. also, doubles would be somewhere that 1-handers could shine. also, just like with DDR, u'd have people who were really good, and then people who are really good at doubles. just imagine FOTBB using 2 hands for 8 arrows!

    but yeah, just a thought. it's not happening any time soon, i know, but i might as well bring it up.
    So I've gone completely slack-ass and haven't done any work on creating games. =(

    In less-depressing news, I got a job for an online business (which sells non-electronic games, of all things!) which has taught me a lot about marketing online and all that jazz.

    So now I'm on Twitter @NoahWright.
    And I write the blog for their website.

    Plus I do cool programming in-house that you'll never see. =O

    It would be cool, but would probly require a major rewrite to the code, and i dont know how far along r2 is.

    Good idea though.

        well, i think doing doubles is a great way to make u better at singles. i play doubles here and there on foot, and some on stepmania. i can do heavy doubles on controller even (hardest part is LR and UD jumps on the left side) and pass MAX 300. maybe if i played more i could start doing better things, perhaps AAing some hard songs. but the point is, doubles mode is a great way to get better, and u have to be really good to do doubles well, so it would make like, a whole new level of awesomeness to admire.

                      Yea it will happen just after the main game with 4 arrows comes out...

                      Not that hard to add in anyway...

                        i love it when Arch0wl is wrong and i'm right! seriously u guys, u should play doubles mode some. playign doubles always makes me get better. i did doubles on controller to get better really fast and i'm currently attempting to better myself with double on foot and on keyboard. seems to be working thus far.

                          no , you are wrong
                          that will never happen since
                          most people's keyboards don't support 4+ presses at a time

                          so
                          double songs would be impossible for almost everyone
