Installing Friday Night Funkin WeekEnd 1 on a Chromebook

In this guide, we'll walk you through the process of installing Friday Night Funkin WeekEnd 1 on your Chromebook. This popular rhythm game has taken the internet by storm, and now you can enjoy it on your Chrome OS device. Before we begin, please note that this tutorial is specifically for Chromebooks with Intel or AMD processors that support Linux Apps. Unfortunately, this method won't work on Chromebooks with ARM64 architecture CPUs.

Prerequisites

Before we start, ensure that your Chromebook has Linux Apps support enabled. If you haven't done this yet, go to your system settings, click on the "About Chrome OS" section in the left panel, and under the Developers section, choose "Set up Linux." Follow the prompts to turn on Linux support.

Step-by-Step Installation Guide

Follow these steps carefully to install Friday Night Funkin WeekEnd 1 on your Chromebook:

1. Set up Wine

Wine is a compatibility layer that allows Windows applications to run on Linux systems. We'll use it to run Friday Night Funkin. Here are the commands to set up Wine:

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/winehq.key && sudo apt-key add winehq.key
echo "deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/debian/ bookworm main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/wine_chrome_os_made_simple.list
sudo apt update
sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-stable winbind
winecfg

After running these commands, Wine will be set up on your Chromebook. The last command, winecfg, opens the Wine configuration window. You can close this window after it opens.

2. Download and Install Friday Night Funkin

Now that Wine is set up, we can download and install Friday Night Funkin:

  1. Download the game from the official Friday Night Funkin website.
  2. Once downloaded, use the following commands to extract and run the game:
unzip funkin-windows-64bit.zip -d funkinweekend1
cd funkinweekend1 && wine Funkin.exe fixedvblank_mode=0

The game should now launch and be ready to play!

If you encounter any issues during the installation or while running the game, here are a few things to try:

  • Make sure your Chromebook's software is up to date
  • Restart your Chromebook and try the process again
  • Check that you have enough free storage space on your device
