Friday Night Funkin' Rewritten

Friday Night Funkin' Rewritten is a rewrite of Friday Night Funkin' built on LÖVE for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Web platforms, as well as previously unsupported platforms, like the Nintendo Switch.

Friday Night Funkin' Rewritten features:

• A rewritten engine focused on performance and playability

• Windows (64-bit)
  • Set up dependencies shown in ./resources/win64/dependencies.txt
  • Run make win64
