Flash game developer Brad Borne's personal web site.
I’ve been posting in the forum and in the comments, but I figured I should finally make a post.
Anyways, everything’s back to normal over here, no damage whatsoever, and the city doesn’t look dead like it did after Katrina. So it looks like we’ll be okay, for now…
And, because I can, some shots from one of the Fraser’s Ride cinematics:
…Windows. And Flash?
The iPad is epic win. Maybe I’ll finally answer my massive backlog of emails (sorry everyone who’s emailed me recently!).
Need some feedback, guys! No, not about the pirate! Read more »
Don’t try this at home!
(Oh and click the pic for a larger version)
Sorry for the utter lack of updates on World 3 (though that seems to be the norm nowadays, eh?), keep a heads up, though, Ill be posting some new footage sometime tonight or tomorrow 
Good stuff, I promise.
I’ve been adding all the engine refinements from ME2D back into FPA. Crazy how much better the game looks with character rotational smoothing. No more jitters, yay!
Fancy Pants Man now has 3 separate run cycles, want to add a whole bunch of different jumps too. I’m nuts. Got a lot of animating ahead of me. Good thing I love animating.
Here’s something that bugs me to no end. I am not Justin Long, you are not John Hodgeman.
Apple uses actors to represent their products, Mircrosoft defines their users by what products they buy. Huge difference there.

So when I’m not doing concept work for World 3, I’ve been playig Super Metroid. Never beat it before, so I figured I should buy it from the Wii VC and do just that. Amazing game. So, I’ve gotten a few emails and such asking about puzzle elements in FPA, nothing overpowering, but what would you guys think of some sort of level or character progression in World 3?
Hey guys, so I’m trying out a new sidebar thingy, something that would allow me to make smaller posts that don’t push down more important posts (like pictures of various pets on my shoulders).
What do you think of the idea? Is the site too thick now? Should I just sell my soul and finally get a twitter to place up here?
quick test indeed

yes lolz
Sweet. Not long now… I hope…
Awesome. Why do you keep posting in World 2?
And is there a release date? <–important question!
Looks like it’ll be interestin’ to say the least.
I’m looking forward to giving it a go. For some reason, I really love how the honey looks in the game. Haha.
lmao, good point Nyubis. He posted the hurricane thing in World 2 too.
Hello Brad!
I just registered for this site and I went to your dashboard (for some reason wordpress let me) and it said:
Wordress 2.6.2 is available! Please notify the system administrator.
So I have! Wordpress 2.6.2 is available! Also, how do I host my own site?
All the best,

I like toast.
Hooray.
Cool, cinematics…
release date?
Shouldn’t be long now. Hopefully.
Don’t have a release date, but we’ve been blasting away at it. Been adding some code from World 2 (we started before World 2), parallax honeycomb backgrounds looks sooo much better
I thought it was pretty much done? I want to see it in action now.
ey brad.
i got a 360 yesterday!
yay…
i have burnout pradise…
whats your gamertag?
I’m interested too (maybe it’s DrNero). Maybe we can play RB together or something.
heh…
uhh…
whats that?
WJUK: It’s close to being done, except for all the stuff we changed, and that extra layer of polish that goes with it. You know, the long, grueling part of making a video game: getting it to work right.
zymm: Congrats! I have the demo of Paradise, but as I like to complain about on here a lot, I really hate the free roaming aspect they added. I loved Burnout Revenge on 360, but no Crash minigame thing = EPIC FAIL.
And it’s DrNeroCF
I still have to plug the thing back in and get to some Castle Crashing… (which is a must-buy if you haven’t already, such an awesome game)
haha.
wjuk found that prof.
he wasn’t sure if it was yours or not.
i looked at it and said “thats definitely brads…”
but, the free roam is actually reall friggin awesome and fun…
well, i’ll add u later. its a lil late…
mine is zymn1.
Close to being done?? Still about a month or what? Cant wait!!! *happy dance*
Sweet, I’m guessing when this comes out it’ll practically shine with the amount of polish your pointing on. Better get my shades.
Btw, I did find your profile (through the xbox website) although I was unsure whether or not it was yours. I saw the Pirate avatar and saw that Castle Crashers was high your most recently played, but still I wasn’t sure.
I still haven’t gotten my hands on Castle Crashers, everytime I have time to I seem to forget. Well, that and I’m saving up for the onslaught of games that is coming up. It’s going to be an insane Christmas…
ey brad, why don’t you talk on the chat on kongregate?
Must be busy playing games… Or making Frasers Ride (yay!)
Mostly I’ve been working on a client project, with a bit of time spread between Mega Man 9 (Wii version with the classic controller!), de Blob, and Wario Land: Shake It.
Oh and a new build of World 2 that I think a lot of people will appreciate (nothing’s changed except for the way I handle data, though).
And by Castle Crashers, Jenna and I spent a good deal of time playing it yesterday, so deliciously old school beat-em-up!
Megaman 9! Awesome… my only gripe with the game is that it doesn’t come in a boxed copy so we don’t get that awesome looking box-art. As for Castle Crashers, I’ve still yet to pick that up although I’ve tried the trial and loved it. I just need to get round to either using my card (now where the hell did that go?) or picking up a points card (probably this option).
I love the animation and the way the character looks makes
you know it’s one of Brad’s games gust like fancy pants man:]
@Brad, I noticed in the other gallery (the one taken from gameplay) that there’s a arrow in front of (I’m guessing here) Fraiser, so am I to expect that this game will be controlled mouse. Also, do you have a PS3 and if so do you have a PSNetwork account?
*by mouse* sorry :’(
