Huge thanks to Nyubis for being unlazy for me.

Wake up! – God

Q&A pt 1

I always feel weird about uploading these to YouTube for hosting. I can just see a bunch of people all like, ‘who is this guy, and why do I care?’ Oh well, still better than using my own bandwidth, I’m sure that banner is sucking up enough bandwidth as it is…

 

Questions addressed in this video are:

Where and when did you first come up with Fancy Pants Man?

Do you have the first drawing of Fancy Pants you made?

Where does Fancy Pants Man store his brain and other headly organs?

How did you get into game development?

What is your educational background?

What do you do other then makes games?

What are you using as a webhost?

How much did Armorgames pay you?

What is your girlfriend like?

How long have you been working on flash games?

Did you make Mindbender?

Can I have your MSN/AIM?

How do you pay for all this, do you have an actual job?

Have you made yourself a level editor?

What kind of pants were you thinking of when you created Fancy Pants?

Are you looking for any ideas for future games?

Is Fancy Pants Man’s wardrobe a reflection of your own?

Did you plan on making Fancy Pants Adventures a series? Did you mean for it to be such a big hit?

 

Time Trial

Just a heads up, I put a timer in World 1 on Kongregate for some new badges. Hit T while in game to display the stopwatch. If anyone really cares about it, I might go and add that to World 2…

Anyways: World 1 at Kongregate.com

As for shirts… still working on that… it’s a bit more difficult than uploading an image to cafe press, if you’re gonna do it right, heh. More videos should be coming soon, and that banner, yes I’m going to let you navigate with doors…

Behind the Fancy Pants

Alrighty, here’s one of those videos I’ve been talking about. I dig around on my hard drive for old files from FPA’s creation. Joining me is Paul Downs, original creator of the Penguin, who is mostly there so I wouldn’t just be talking to myself about how terrible all my old stuff is.

I had to cut a lot from this video, so who knows, maybe I’ll post some of that footage one day…

Next up, though, is a multi-part Q & A session with Fairly Obvious / my girlfriend Jenna, once I begin editing that, I can tell you guys which questions we’ll go through in the first part.

Also: yes, I will make the banner navigate the site through different doors, I was planning that all along, but I’m still catching up with a ton of work, so, I’ll do it eventually :P

Where are those videos?!

Things have been pretty busy around here. I don’t really want to go into details of my personal life, but I haven’t been able to get much work done lately (and no, it’s not because of Brawl :P ), so I’ve finally found myself catching up on a ton of things.

Soo, basically, I’ll get to those videos when I can…

Oh yeah, right, that picture… Been playing around with Art Rage a bit lately, Flash isn’t really good for the sketchy way that I draw, but I like having an undo button, so that program tends to be really good for goofing around.

Why Not

Before we started filming, my fat cat decided to say hi.Just thought I’d prove that the video is real and Fairly/Jenna exists :P

Video Thing Again

If it’s not working still and you have Quicktime, either click return in the address bar to load the movie file again, or try right clicking and save file as…*shrug* It’s being weird for me, if I click it and click back and click it again, it works fine.(it’s Quicktime, and I should probably learn how to embed videos…)Yeah whateva.

Another Video

I know that for most of you who visit and post on my site, there wasn’t all that much new info in the guides video, but nonetheless, it still sparked a few questions and discussions.

For all of you who want to know more about the history of The Fancy Pants Adventure, and my commentary on World 1 and 2, I’m planning on making another video tomorrow, something that’s far more in depth, that those of you out there have already got all the pants colors and trophies should enjoy.

I don’t want to get too technical with it, but if there’s anything specific you’d like to know, post questions here. I know this is really short notice, but I’ll still try to go through all the questions I’ve been asked so far, since I haven’t been able to go through all my emails and respond to each one.

My friend Paul Downs will also be in the video, he’s the guy who designed the Penguin (which I turned angry), something like 15 years ago. That should be far better than just having me sitting at the computer mumbling into a microphone alone…
