Sorry I wasn’t able to give you guys a better heads up, but we’re over at PAX East right now, showing off a new competitive multiplayer mode, King of the Hill!
How does KotH work in a platformer? Quite well, actually!
What’s this? Still more new content? 
I’ll get you guys some footage and more pics once I get to a real Internet connection.
Not much else to say that hasn’t been said better elsewhere.
I really started creating digital content once I got my first Mac, a now ancient PowerBook G4 (clocked slower than my current phone, imagine that). I first got into Flash games by creating stopmotion animation, and I got into that because I enjoyed video editing, thanks to in no small part by Apple’s focus on media creation with iLife and FireWire (an utter God-sent during the time of DV cameras).
So here’s to (as The Onion playfully puts it) the last American who knew what the heck he was doing.
…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?
Archive for Sidebar Posts: »
oh, sorry – that was a misunderstanding. But GREAT, it’s coming along nicely
– is it meant to be 30,000 with facebook and twitter together?
@Brad Yes indeed I would love some sort of update – you’re super fancy game looks awesome btw and I’m loving all these modes!
@BE FANCY: That’s right. Hopefully it will be soon…..
@Brad: A video would be great, especially for the people (like me) who don’t know what you’re talking about half the time. I think I understand the concept of King of the Hill, but it would be useful to see exactly what it is.
Hey, this looks really fun! I’m really looking forward to this game, any word on approximate release date?(besides Spring 2011)
PS. Whatever happened to cutie pants girl? i know she’s been captured and all, but will she be playable in multiplayer mode, or will it just be fancy pants man? Either way is good, I’m just curious.
Actually, after beating the game you should be able to choose to play as CPG, Brad. Would be interesting to co-op with two characters who play differently
@daxterspeed: like the mario galaxy games when you finish the whole game with mario, you get to be luigi or mario? right? lol.
@BeFancy: yea, twitter and facebook.
i wish it was a a bit faster though. if it was 20,000 i would be happy. even though im grateful its not 50,000. 
@everyone: brad has an iphone!!!!! it is shown on the facebook thing thats in the top right almost where alot of stuff that brad posted on facebook is, it says via iphone! lol, just wanted to say that.
So, er… Brad, how about some pre-release content for people who own one of the consoles?
Great idea!!!
@DaxterSpeed You know, he still isn’t done revealing content… it is quite possible that that is already the plan. Brad did say that CPG would be playable, so I’d imagine she would appear in multi-player too.
@julius: are you motioning towards different characteristic abilities with advantages in speed, agility, (strength and mind if needed?). That would be awesome, because i would love to have that!!
@KCreator78: So co-op multiplayer levels are found in the main levels, like the Science room is, Race and KotH are more separated from the main game, they make more sense as hop in hop out gameplay (especially online
).
