Sadly, I don’t have enough content for a full update, but I should be finished with the Forest soon. I’m liking this style of grass better, and I’ve been doing some coding work to get every level set up for mini trials, challenge levels, and all that (before that was just sort of hacked together for the Sneak Peek).
Any questions in particular? I might do another video soon going through a few of the other things in the Sneak Peek. Need to get consistent with those again…
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?

FYI brad i might lose it if you dont post again because i am the biggest FPA fan ever and i could prove it because i go a xbox with my own money just to play fancy pants as an owner. i also was the first person to download it because at 12 exactly i downloaded it
No, i am the biggest fan! i play FPM since i was 9, and there was only the demo for the world 2! And i am a geek animator just because i got the inspiration from FPM!
Who is the biggest fan, now?
(Probably ICARAX…)
He may be… he has been here for over a year at least, and he post comments on this site very often too, so you may be right.
But there is people on this site who has been here much longer than ICARAX has, many of they posts a lot of stuff in the forums rather than in the comment section, for example applewarrior and Jesus_minime has been here longer than ICARAX has (right?) and WJUK and has been here for ages, almost decades! xP…
GAH! This page is slowly but surely dying, literally!… so sad to just watch it happening in front of your very own eyes
I’m back again btw
at least for a short time, just wanted to say hello to everyone again 
it has been quite a while since i last logged in….
It feels like this page has just no purpose anymore, and that’s why I’m not posting as much as I did earlier… yes, we are waiting for world 3, but brad is working so slowly with these minor details that no one even cares about! I want world 4 as Brad promised in the console game! I wonder what he’s actually doing right now :/
And one last thing that doesn’t have anything to do with fancy pants: I have, for some strange reason got addicted to milk… I have always been addicted to drinking tons of water, but now the same goes to milk too apparently xP
OK brad this is getting just a little bit ridiculous. POST SOON PLZ!!! :’(
i think he is going to stay like this for another week or so and then he will post that world 3 is out
is all this stuff in the sneak peek?(by stuff i mean like the sandy level and the forest level and the misplaced cave level) i haven’t played for a few weeks and when i try to play on the chrome app version there is always a popup that says”the following pages have become unresponsive” so i can only play on my laptop which is not with me!!! =)
guilhermus magnus what the hell is fpm? if u haven’t realized its fpa fancy pants Adventures
Where do we ask questions? Because I just wanted to know what software he uses for this game…
He uses Adobe ™ Flash ™ Professional Creative Suite 5!
