GROMBI FACT DROPREAL-WORLD TRIVIA

A strange little side quest

Between one round of Fancy Pants Adventure: World and the next, this is worth knowing: Sonic the Hedgehog launched in 1991 and turned speed itself into a defining platform-game mechanic. And the history keeps stacking up: By 1987, fantasy role-playing had become a major computer-game direction, with Zelda, licensed Dungeons & Dragons games and other story-led adventures expanding the form. That gives Fancy Pants Adventure: World a little more company than it first appears to have.

What you are getting into

The Fancy Pants Adventures is a series of free side-scrolling Flash games created by American developer Brad Borne. Fancy Pants Adventures features Fancy Pants Man as the playable character of the series. He is a two dimensional stick figure man with spiky, choppy hair, wearing only a pair of colored triangular-shaped pants, hence his name. "World 1" was the first installment in the Fancy Pants Adventure series and has been released in 2006. It is a platforming game that is focused on speed and momentum. World 1 also introduces various trophies, side goals (squiggles and stars), and a variety of colors and styles of pants for the player to try on. The music in the game is composed by Geier Arnold. World 1 does not seem to have a plot, other than Fancy Pants Man running around the world and accidentally waking an angry penguin from his nap.
