First comment
( AW no, someone beat me to it!)
Anyways, awesome Brad!!! 🙂
Now this is epic news. Congratulations Brad, you’re an inspiration to all of us Flash game designers.
So is the console version going to be the same as the Flash version? Or at least similar?
[edit] Damn, I was the first comment when I read this post. Now I’m the 7th.
Awesome, im definitely going to get it, but like J4ke is it going to be for flash?
Same as J4ke. We would like a little bit more info. Will we still see this game online, or will it only be for consoles? Will it even be for PC?
Great news though. Congrats!
does http://www.fancypantsadventures.com/ work for anyone or is it just me?

Fairly: I tried it on another computer in my house and it worked fine, unable to connect to server on this (my main) one though.
Awesome site though!
@khil – okay, good, kind of weird though . . . hm
did y’all check out the store??
wait… i don’t have an xbox and will probably never get one. 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 PLZ MAKE W3 BE ON PC TOOOOOOOOO!!!!! 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 😥 im still kind of disappointed. 🙁
@shalom: ‘shalom’ means peace in Hebrew.
although i am a little disappointed
You guys have come an extremely long way. congrats (‘:
EDIT: brad didn’t do all that coding for nuthin. It’s going to be on PC.
wait……will fpm3 still be for computers? If not, i have my
advanced response: nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11!!!!!!!11how can you DO this to us?!!!!?/?!?!??!?!!?!??!?!?!!!111
please take this into consideration
@fairly obvious:big fan
DUDE.
Just found the shop, awesome stuff. LOVING the Star Wars parody pose, so cool.
@Farily: I checked that out right away! I’ve got some new stuff to add to my Christmas list!
guys, can’t u see this! this video gives away so much! it shows a bunch of new levels. but that snow level looks sort of like level 2 in fancy pants 2. but what i discovered is the last level thats all wooden and stuff. theres a sign that says something about weapons! Check And Ask Brad!
@hamcheez I’d love to get this game for Mac. Can you still play it browser-style? Even if you have to pay for it, I’d still get it. I don’t have an XBox or PS3, so there’s no chance I could get it on either of those… but this game is so good… I might pay up to $20 just to own/play this game!
Btw, it’s not that I don’t trust you, hamcheez, it’s just I’d rather have an actual conformation from the man himself. ALSO, is this game just converted from Flash to Xbox/PS3?
Congrats, Brad! You have officially proved video games to be a form of art!
Hey guys! This is me being a total nerd but if you google Fancy Pants Adventures EA the gaming sites are already putting up posts about it!!
@cameronwinget Heh, I don’t mind @ all ;). Brad coded fancy pants on a mac, I’m pretty sure you could play on a mac :). Not sure if he’s going to charge though :/
@fairly: lol yeah I’m really happy for you guys!
@Fairly: Actually I was just about to post about that, the internet is literally overflowing with sites talking about this game! it’s awesome! SO many sites! So many new fans! This game is going to be awesome!
Epic!!!!
Now I just need to get a PS3…
Oh, and did any of you know that Fancy Pants is also a movie from 1950? It’s also a movie that was released this year/will be released this year…
YAAAAY!!
But … Brad … AppStore? …
Woohah! Brad now has a big brother (EA, ofc 😉 )!
Consoles are always good, but if the FPA isn’t for PC too… I will make a little voodoo doll of Brad! 🙂
Hm. I would be excited, as it means that fancy is getting the full game he seems meant for, and Brad’s getting some totally legitimate credibility in the industry, but I’m upset that WiiWare isn’t also an option. It seems that the Bornes are both wii people (wii-owning at least) and over the top games’ only completed project, Nyx Quest, was only on the WiiWare. So why isn’t it also coming to wii? ah well, too bad…
Only this? Man, Brad, I thought you’d release a demo.
Oh well, at least we’ll be got some new demo footage!
[EDIT] Oh hey, the store has some new ‘n sweet official art!
Grreeaaatttt!!!!!!!!! Just signed up and subscribed to posts on the fancypants webpage and nice video you got there!
PS: The maps looked awesome in the video!!! 😀
Brad, I really need to know. Will there still be a Flash based World three?
This is big news and I’m really happy for you (this means a lot for you, obviously) but… I take it the ‘Designed exclusively for console’ is about the porting work OTT games did? Not about what you’re doing (Flash game) ?
The store is awesome!!!
@brad: just a question, are you going to add the pencil to the header, or would it just slow you down in making world three?
@brad: this thing with EA isnt gonna slow down the progress of world three, right?
i would be so saad. 😥
ahh…. Another good reason why I should have an xbox….But I dont….So it better still be available in the internet or else I’ll miss out on years of work on Brad’s part.
Congratulations, Brad and Fairly, that’s awesome! Good luck with all of it, I’m sure it’ll turn out great!
And for the record, that COMPLETELY trumped anything I was expecting from the announcement…great news!
Kind of edit: Just checked out the FB page and the website, and both are AWESOME! (Nice screenshots on FB!)
So is porting it to XBLA gonna allow for tons of new, epic stuff because you can get around Flash’s failz? (Hopefully you won’t have any lag/manually-timing-frame problems now, huh?)
RIDDLES:
1.) What is as big as you are and yet does not weigh anything?
2.) The person who makes it has no need for it. The person who purchases it does not use it. The person who does use it does not know he or she is. What is it?
BRAD PLZ PUT PNCIL IN HEADER! but maybe ICARAX should stop double commenting first. 😛
Sorry Davis Mouse, i cant edit, its not letting me, its saying your time has expired to edit this. 😥
but yes brad, please put the pencil in the header. 😛
Wingdemon: you got them both right! 😆 😈
@Davis Mouse, he cant, his comments were set 14 minutes apart.
@ICARAX, Answer1: My Shadow, Answer2: A Coffin.
@tehSemicolon, LAG! on a 360! OMG, that would be so fail. 🙁
i only have a wii and a nintendo ds 🙁 but im happy for everyone else! YAY! 😀 will this slow down the making of world three?
To give some actual feedback, I think that the squiggle counter should be on the left of the life counter. Or the life counter could be double wide and the star counter could be on the left of the squiggle counter!
I only have a PlayStation. 🙁
Also brad, when w3 is out, will you start posting about frasers ride?? 😉
