Line 6:
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]].
 
Fancy Pants Man is also playable in ''[http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/381115 Newgrounds Rumble]'' (as of its May 30th, 2008 update) and {{spoiler|''[[Shift]] [http://armorgames.com/play/1846/shift-3 3]''}} (as a [[New Game Plus+]] [[Secret Character]]).

=== The games provide examples of: ===
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 63:
 
=== ''World 3'' provides examples of: ===
* [[Adaptation -Induced Plothole]]: The online Flash version's [[Nutty Squirrel]] rewards Fancy Pants Man with "a squirrel-y prize", which is a dark-green pair of pants. How is that squirrel-y? The console versions have instead as a reward an acorn-shaped hat, much more relative to squirrels than a forest-like green.
* [[Be the Ball]]: In multiplayer, a player can kick another player crouched into a ball to get him or her significant height and speed.
** [[Rolling Attack]]: Possible to do as well, even in single-player by rolling down a slope.
Line 100:
* [[The Spiny]]: Some spiders (and pirates, some of the time) cannot be [[Goomba Stomp|Goomba Stomped]] upon easily; this encourages use of the pencil, which is easier to use than a fast jump or slide.
* [[Spoiled Brat]]: After Cutie Pants {{spoiler|usurps the pirate ship's control}}, she asks for lollipop swirl gowns, unilammas, [[Tastes Like Purple|rainbow-flavored]] ice cream, among a 1200-number long list of wants.
* [[Star -Shaped Coupon]]: Present as collectables on every level.
* [[Super Not-Drowning Skills]]: In the Pirate Cove, Fancy Pants Man never needs air when he's diving. Borne says that this was intentional, as he wanted the water level to be fun, rather than as a [[Scrappy Level]]. <!-- and defied. -->
* [[Temporary Platform]]: Thin sand platforms in Bummin' It Beach crumble when Fancy Pants Man steps on them. The thicker ones, oddly, do not.
