    Am I Supposed To Use 2 Hands?

    I've reached the tricky levels and I can't seem to get any better. I'm stuck. I use one hand. My fingers aren't quick enough with this one hand and I just saw a video of this amazing FFR dude and he was using 2 hands.

    So I was wondering, should I start using 2? If so, is there any certain technique I should use? Thanks.

    yes, there are 2 ways you can change. 1 is by going to this URL. http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/...ad.php?t=41727

    and follow the steps until you have your keys formatted. what this does is that it makes the keys that you chose to re-format, to hit certain arrows. this is called Spread in most cases, meaning that A = Left, S= Down, K= Up, and L= Right.

    and then there is a technique called index, which is using either your left finger on Down, middle finger on Left, right finger on Up, and left middle finger on Right on the arrow keys on your keyboard. or you use that technique on the numpad, by using 4 with left finger, 2 with left middle finger, 8 with right finger, and 6 with right middle finger.

    hoped this helps! and have fun playing FFR.
    Yep.

      You don't NEED to use 2 hands but for most people it helps a lot.

        It's better as you have more fingers and 1 finger is working on a certain tap, less confusion.

          no, you do NOT have to use two hands. "I've reached tricky levels." by reached you mean you can survive through them, full combo them, or AAA them?

            That's definately not what index is, you use 2 fingers with index not 4...

            unless i misread your post or something

            Index ftw.

              you couldnt be anymore wrong about index and I dont even play it. the act you just described would physically disfigure someone if they attempted something like it for longer than 2 seconds.

                    I started out using 1 hand and ended up in your situation as well.
                    Then I started using two hands. It felt really wierd at first but just keep practicing with it and youll get used to it.
