Questions and answers

Playing

Does Feather Fever cost anything?

No. It's free to play right in your browser, with nothing to download or install. The game may show ads to keep the servers running; if you enjoy it, you can send us a small gift.

What's the difference between offline and online?

• Offline (not signed in): open the game and play, no connection needed after the first load. You get Practice against bots, all 9 levels, singles or doubles, with the two starting characters. No coins, rank or stats.
• Online (signed in): adds Friendly, Ranked, the whole cast, the shop, missions and your career. Your progress is saved on the server, so it follows you to another device.

What can I play on?

Computers and phones with a recent browser (Chrome, Edge, Safari, Firefox and others).

• Computer: play with the keyboard or a gamepad (Xbox, PlayStation and ordinary USB pads).
• Phone or tablet: turn it sideways; the stick is on the left, the buttons on the right.
• On a slower device, lower the graphics level in the game's settings and it will run smoother.

Accounts

Where do I sign in?

Inside the game. This website has no sign-in; press Play now and choose Sign in in the game. You can use a Google account or an email and password.

If you're signed in to the game in this browser, the button on this website greets you by name with the character you play.

Do I need an account to play?

No. Practice works without one. You only need to sign in to find opponents online, climb the ranks and keep your progress across devices.

I forgot my password. What now?

On the sign-in screen in the game, press Forgot password? and enter your account's email. We send a 6-digit code to that address; enter it and pick a new password. If you sign in with Google, there's no password to forget.

Do I lose anything when I sign out?

No. Your online progress lives on the server and comes back when you sign in again. On the device, the game keeps your name, your settings and the tutorial steps you've done.

I play on CrazyGames and on this website. Can it be one account?

Yes, with a merge code: your CrazyGames account and your website account (Google or email) become one, and both logins open the same progress.

1. On the account you want to keep, open Profile and choose Get merge code. The code works for 15 minutes; a new code cancels the old one.
2. On the other platform, open Profile, choose Merge with code and type the code.
3. Check the two cards, then confirm by signing in again: your password, your Google account, or CrazyGames does it for you.

The account you type the code into loses its own progress: from then on its login opens the kept account. Codes only work between CrazyGames and this website, and each account merges once. Merged the wrong way? Write to us within 7 days and we can undo it.

I made an account with my email, then signed in with Google. Do I have two?

Not when Google confirms the same address: signing in with Google opens your email account, and your password keeps working too. Signed in with email? Link Google in Profile adds a Google account with another address. Signed in with Google? Add email + password lets you also sign in with that address and a password.

Installing the game as an app

Once installed, the game gets its own icon on your home screen, opens full screen, starts faster, and Practice works even with no connection. It's the same progress, nothing to start over.

InstallOpen the game

• Chrome or Edge on a computer: open the game, click the Install app icon at the end of the address bar (a screen with an arrow), then Install.
• Android (Chrome): open the game, tap the ⋮ menu and choose Add to Home screen or Install app.
• iPhone or iPad (Safari): tap the ⋯ button next to the address bar, then Share (or tap Share directly if you see it), then Add to Home Screen and Add.

When there's a new version, the game shows New version ready; tap Reload and you're done. During a match the notice waits until you're free.

Typing Vietnamese while you play

Why does my character move strangely with Vietnamese typing on?

Any Vietnamese input method can catch the game's keys: Unikey, EVKey, OpenKey, or the Vietnamese keyboard built into macOS and Windows, in Telex or VNI. They hold back a few keys to build accented letters, so the game gets them late or not at all, and moving with W, A, S, D stutters. The game never changes your input method for you, so there are three ways round it:

1. Switch the input method to English while you play. Click its icon in the system tray or menu bar, or use its Vietnamese/English shortcut.
2. Use the game's Telex-safe keys. This layout avoids every Telex key: arrows to move, V to hit (C soft, B power), Space to jump, Shift to dive. When the game sees an input method is on, it offers you this layout.
3. Install the game as an app and use your input method's per-app mode, if it has one. Set the Feather Fever app to English once; your other apps keep typing Vietnamese as usual.

Your data

What does the game keep, and where?

• On your device: your name, settings (graphics, keys, language, sound), the tutorial steps, and your sign-in session if you signed in.
• On the server (only when signed in): your account, coins, items, rank, match results and career.
• Anonymous counts (Google Analytics, on this website and its game only): which screens are opened and how many matches are played, never who you are. Cookies only if you say yes; the switch in Profile changes your answer.

The details are on the Privacy page.

How do I delete my data?

In the game, open Profile and choose Reset progress to erase everything on this device and start over. To delete your data on the server as well, write to us with your player name.

Will clearing my browser history lose my progress?

If you're signed in: no, your progress is on the server. If you play offline: your name and settings on this device go (Practice doesn't save anything else anyway).

Getting help

The game crashes, stutters or won't load?

1. Reload the page. If you see New version ready, tap Reload.
2. Lower the graphics level in the game's settings.
3. Can't get into an online match? Check your connection; the game retries by itself. Practice still works meanwhile.
4. Still stuck? Contact us with your device, browser and a screenshot if you can.
