Confront the Ink Demon himself in this premium rhythm battle from the celebrated Friday Night Funkin Indie Cross mod collection. "Last Reel" is widely regarded as the best Indie Cross song — and once you play it, you'll understand why. Face off against Bendy from Bendy and the Ink Machine (by The Meatly Games) in a musical showdown that strips away all distractions and delivers pure, uncompromising rhythm gameplay.
Unlike many other FNF mods that incorporate special mechanics like dodging or counterattacking, this version of Last Reel intentionally removes the dodge and attack mechanics. The creator explicitly stated: "no dodge and attack mechanic cuz coding hurts my brain." The result is a clean, focused rhythm experience that tests nothing but your timing, consistency, and ability to keep up with intense beat patterns. This stripped-down approach makes Last Reel an ideal challenge for players who want to prove their rhythm skills without gimmick distractions.
This FNF mod serves as a technical demonstration of the Poly Engine (version 0.1.2.9), a modern FNF engine praised for its modding capabilities. The engine was developed by @FlyingMusicNote, who encourages other creators to try porting their mods to Poly Engine because it's "super amazing and worth it." The input and charting system was created by @Shmish21, with chart compilation handled by @ne_la.
If you're interested in FNF mod development or want to experience what Poly Engine can do, this port is an excellent showcase of the engine's capabilities. Should you encounter any technical issues, report bugs directly to @Ceemech.
