Fancy Pants Adventures: Difference between revisions

Line 4:

''Fancy Pants Adventures'' is a series of [[Platformer]] [[Web Games]] created by Brad Borne. The games concern the title stick figure [[Captain Obvious|with orange pants]] running around trying to wake a giant penguin (in ''[http://armorgames.com/play/301/fancy-pants-adventures World 1]'') take back his beloved ice cream from a rabbit (in ''[http://armorgames.com/play/553/the-fancy-pants-adventure-world-2 World 2]''), or save [[Distressed Damsel|Cutie Pants]] (in ''[http://armorgames.com/play/13155/fancy-pants-adventures-world-3 World 3]'').

While it started out on [[~~Newgrounds (Website)|~~Newgrounds]], it eventually made its way to the [[Playstation Network]] and [[Xbox Live Arcade]] and earned its own website [http://www.fancypantsadventures.com/ here]. The downloadable game was eventually rereleased free, but without multiplayer aspects or the time trials, as ''World 3''. The downloadable game has also been released as an [[IOS Games|iOS game]].

Line 36:

* [[Le Parkour]]: Exaggerated; not only can Fancy Pants Man wall-jump, preform backflips, and hop from platform to platform in the course of normal gameplay, ''World 2'' has an area in level 5 where he runs continuously while completely upside down.

* [[Playable Menu]]: The main menu is a small box where Fancy Pants Man can navigate and open the doors to the various sections of the game.

* [[Shout-Out]]: The games' design started as a cross between the ''[[Super Mario Bros ~~(Franchise)~~|Super Mario Bros]]'' series and ''[[~~Sonic the Hedgehog (Franchise)|~~Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' series, as most prevalently displayed in ''World 1'', but the gameplay developed separately and uniquely.

* [[Spikes of Doom]]: Normally nonexistent, but ''World 2'''s Afro Ninja course and the bottom of a section of a challenge area in ''World 3'' has them.

* [[Springs Springs Everywhere]]: Frequently used to get to high places.

Line 47:

=== ''World 1'' provides examples of: ===

* [[Advancing Wall of Doom]]: The wall-jump secret area employs ink in the form [[Rise to ~~The~~ Challenge]].

* [[Airborne Mook]]: The [[Buffy-Speak|bat-looking things]] in World 1's final stage.

* [[Bullfight Boss]]: The penguin. [[Lampshade Hanging|It even makes bull horns with its fingers.]]

Line 88:

* [[Loads and Loads of Loading]]: Present; while the loading screens aren't too long, moving from one area to another rather frequently compound the time waited at these screens.

* [[Meaningful Background Event]]: A bunch of springs, Squiggles, and a star can be seen in the background of the latter half of Squiggleville. They correlate with an accessible, but inconspicuous area.

* [[Message in A Bottle]]: Cutie Pants's method of communicating with her brother, even if she's still on land. These bottles can be collected and read for [[One Hundred Percent Completion]].
