FNF Vs. Matt Boxing Fight

FNF vs Matt Boxing Fight turns a rhythm battle into a boxing simulation with several mechanics that are not part of standard Friday Night Funkin'. Matt is already known for demanding charts, but this version adds a shield, colored notes, a dodge action and a stamina move. Reading the arrows is only the first layer; the player must also decide when to repair defense and how to react after a mistake.

The mod is based on a playable version of an animated Matt fight. Completing Story Mode unlocks the third Freeplay song, MATTPurgation. The random blue and orange note mechanic can be switched in the settings, which is useful for learning the base chart before adding the full boxing rules.

Blue and Orange Notes

Orange notes are dangerous: hitting one removes the player's shield. Blue notes work in the opposite direction and award shield when hit correctly, but missing a blue note also removes extra shield. These notes may appear randomly when the option is active, so memorizing a fixed route is not enough. Confirm the color before pressing, especially during a fast sequence.

A missed ordinary note removes half a shield bar. That makes careless tapping expensive even when the health meter still looks recoverable. Players should prioritize clean, certain inputs rather than trying to hit every uncertain arrow.

Shield, Dodge and Stamina Controls

• Arrow Keys or WASD: play regular and colored rhythm notes.
• Space five times: restore shield when the mechanic is available.
• E: dodge after missing a note and avoid part of the follow-up punishment.
• Z: use the stamina move when its bar is full.

The Z move carries risk. Its result can grant bonus shield, temporary invincibility, no benefit, or a severe shield loss. It should be used as a calculated option, not pressed automatically whenever the bar fills.

How to Unlock MATTPurgation

Finish the Story Mode route first. MATTPurgation then becomes available as the third Freeplay song. This gives the story clear purpose beyond introducing Matt: it teaches the defensive controls before the unlocked challenge asks the player to use them under greater pressure.

Boxing Fight Strategy

• Learn the normal chart with random colored notes disabled if the mechanics feel overwhelming.
• Do not mash after a miss; use E deliberately and return to the next visible beat.
• Repair the shield during a readable gap instead of waiting until it is almost empty.
• Use Z only when you can survive an unfavorable result.
