Getting Started in Royalty Free-For-All

  1. ## Before You Start
  2. Try Party Mode first if you're new to platform fighters -- it's specifically designed to simplify combat for friends unfamiliar with the genre, while the core game still supports deeper techniques for players who want them.
  3. If you're a longtime platform fighter fan, know that wavedashing, tech landing, and foxtrots are all preserved -- don't assume the simplified single-button attack inputs mean shallow depth.
  4. ## Choosing Your First Fighter
  5. With six total attack types (Light, Strong, and Special, each usable grounded or airborne) shared across the roster, pick a fighter based on their specific character rather than worrying about a steep mechanical learning curve -- the accessible input scheme is designed to let you focus on character identity from the start.
  6. ## Playing Online
  7. Take advantage of the confirmed rollback netcode for online play, though an Ethernet connection is specifically recommended over Wi-Fi for the smoothest experience.
  8. ## If You're on Mac or Linux
  9. Check for the latest patch before playing -- the developers have directly acknowledged bugs on these platforms ahead of launch, with fixes expected to land close to release.
  10. ## Common Mistakes
  11. * Assuming this is a shallow, casual-only fighter because of its accessible single-button attack inputs -- genre-standard advanced techniques are fully preserved underneath that accessible surface.
  12. * Overlooking Party Mode if you're introducing friends to platform fighters for the first time -- it's built specifically for that purpose.
