Introduction

The Fancy Pants Adventures is a 3rd Person platformer made by Indie-Developer Brad Bourne with the help of Over The Top Games and EA 2-D studios. This game is not hard for anyone to pick up as it controls as you'd expect, joystick to move, :cross: to jump. Momentum plays a crucial role in this game, as it will determine whether or not you'll be able to reach that last pretty star or not.

The story is also fairly straight forward. In the beginning, Pirates have seized the Squiggle Kings royal bathtub (king sized obviously). After confronting the Rainbow Bearded Pirate Capitan Daffodils, he attempts to make his escape only to be pwned by Cutie Pants for petting her cat Kitten Kaboodle. This prompts the other pirates to kidnap Cutie Pants thinking she would be a better captain then the Rainbow Bearded Captain. After this event you, Fancy Pants, must rescue your sister from the pirates encountering evil Spiders, Squiggle Gun packing Mice, Crabs, Frogs, Ducks, Ninjas, and so forth.

 

Roadmap

 

Step 1:Play through the main story levels. By playing through the main story levels you will get a feel for the controls and learn quite a few tricks. As you play through make sure to explore as much as you can and grab any stars you're able to reach. Very importantly you will also unlock the pencil as you play through which will allow you not only to fight pirates and such, but will give you the power to extend your jumps with charged air attacks which will let you reach those "just out of reach" stars much easier without the need to co-op play. (Note: All jumps CAN be reached alone, but it becomes a heck of a lot easier in coop when you can jump off of your buddies or be kicked by them) Once you finish the main story levels you will earn the trophy "Big Brother" and if you explored the levels thoroughly on your first run "The Newbie"

 

Step 2: Complete Worlds 1 and 2 In this step your only focus is Worlds 1 and 2, these are the two "?" doors located in the attic of your house. These are for the most part direct ports of the flash games, with the exception of a few minor things. You should make your best effort to complete the Snail Shell Golf challenges on your first runs of World 2, and focus on getting 100% on each level in World 1 as its the easiest place to earn "The Newbie" specifically on the Level 3, you'll probably get 100% without really trying. By the end of Worlds 1 and 2 you should have the trophies "Fancy Fanboy" and "The Newbie"

 

Step 3: Reach for the Stars and 100% At this step you should have all the controls down, learned how to extend your jumps using your pencil, and know how to explore levels by going through doors and collecting trophies. In this step you will be replaying each level to get 100%. To do this you must get every squiggle, star, find every bottle, and complete every challenge. Doing this shouldn't be too hard, finding most doors doesn't take much effort, and it shouldn't be too difficult to figure out how to reach high spots. After you find every star, and complete every challenge, you will have all the Fancy Arcade Challenges unlocked for the next step. At the end of Step 3 you should have: "Paparazzi", "Story Teller", and "Obsessed"

 

Step 4: Arcade Challenges This step could take you all your life, or 20 minutes. All you need to do is complete every Fancy Arcade Challenge (The Blue Machine in your house). Each of these challenges is self-explanatory, and shouldn't give you much trouble unless you get easily frustrated like me. At the end of this step you will have "The Olympian", and "Better then the Developers"

 

Step 5: Clean up and Misc trophies In this step you should focus on getting "The Juggler" and cleaning up any levels you haven't 100%ed to this point for "Obsessed" Now you should get some friends (or a second controller) and complete a Tournament on your arcade machine (the red arcade machine) to get "The Champion" . Now that you have that out of the way, its time for the real time consuming part of this game. Collecting 10,000 squiggles and Fancy Fashion. Collecting 10,000 squiggles will definitely come while going for Fancy Fashion, just play through 100% levels as fast as you can to reach the podium and collect your prize. Avoid the ? door, as it contain repeats on a usual basis, which makes the process that much more tedious. This will take a while, and a lot of repeats of stages, I recommend running World 2 as it can be completed in little more than 10 to 15 minutes and yield 8 new fashion items. You'll need to watch for repeats, and make sure you collect any squiggles on your path to get your 10,000 squiggle mark. Don't worry if the fastest route has minimal squiggles, as you should have a nice head start from 100%ing each level. By the end of this process you will earn "Squiggle Hunter" and "Fancy Fashion" along with your well earned 100%.

Trophy Guide

 

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1701/UP1wBLs=.jpg-Obsessed (G)

Complete 100% of the Game

 

This trophy requires you to reach 100% completion of all levels in the main story, World 1, and World 2. This does not require you to obtain all 150 items or complete all the arcade challenges. The only trouble I feel may affect most players is obtaining all the stars. It shouldn't be to hard as each level is fairly easy to explore, but I am trying to obtain a camera to record play-throughs of each level, but for now you should be able to manage

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1701/UPyQ-Cg=.jpg-Big Brother(S)

Story Mode Completed

 

This trophy is simple enough, just complete the main story and this is yours.

 

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1701/UPh4L5E=.jpg-Fancy Fanboy(B)

Complete World 1 and 2

 

This trophy isn't much trouble either, just complete the main story to unlock Worlds 1 and 2 and complete each level to earn this trophy.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1701/UPu53rc=.jpg-Squiggle Hunter(S)

10000 Squiggles Collected

 

This trophy is somewhat time consuming and will require multiple run throughs of each level. I got about 3500 squiggles after playing the main story, World 1 and World 2, and got to 7500-8000 by the time I got 100% on each level. That should be a great headstart, I capped out at around 19,000 Squiggles after obtaining Fancy Fashion.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1701/UPkyF9E=.jpg-The Juggler (B)

Juggle a shell 10 times before it touches the ground

 

For some, this trophy can be a bit tricky, you must hit a snailshell 10 times in a row without it hitting the ground (or walls). You can do this anywhere with a snailshell. A flat surface is optimal but even under pristine conditions you may get a little frustrated with this. Leole posted a great way to do this easy in another thread.

 

The easiest way to get this trophy is to go to the Bayou Golf course (whether through Challenge mode or just by going in the room with the hat wearing frog in Rolling Bayou) and kicking the shell to the first spring, that'll make the shell jump up and down indefinitely. Then, when the shell is high in the air, make Fancy Pants jump on the spring, that way, you'll head bump it over and over again and the trophy will unlock shortly after. I hope this helps anyone who needs it :)

 

Pro-Tip: It doesn't matter if the shell touches the spring after you head-bump it a few times, the game doesn't registers the spring as "touching the ground", you just need to bump the shell in the air 10 times.

 

As I've also learned, Walls are also okay for the shell to bounce off of. This should allow juggling in a corner to be drastically easier.

Win a tournament on your home arcade machine

 

This trophy is straight forward. Just get at least 2 players in a game (online or off) and go to the Red arcade Machine in your house, and at the menu press :square: to load up a tournament, win, and this baby will ding in.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1701/UP3axGg=.jpg-The Olympian (B)

Get one gold medal

 

Earn a gold medal on any arcade challenge, Races are easiest, start with them.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1701/UP6x9Z0=.jpg-Papparazi(B)

Collect all 60 Stars

 

These are the little buggers you will be hunting while getting 100% in each level, none of them are that hard to find. Some can look tricky to reach, remember use your pencil to extend your jumps, or get a coop partner to help you reach new heights easier. Once you get some of the harder ones you'll probably face-palm realising how simple that star was to reach.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1701/UPsgJ3g=.jpg-The Newbie(B)

Get 100% in one level

 

Just earn 100% in any level, you'll obviously get this trophy going for Obsessed, the easiest levels to do this are in World 1, specifically where there's only 75 squiggles and minimal exploration.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1701/UPpZJiQ=.jpg-Fancy Fashion(S)

Collect all the customisable items

 

This trophy is the one that really deserves to be gold. Shoot for this last, after obtaining 100% on every level, just speed through them as fast as you can you do not need to recollect every item again to go to the Podium level to get a prize. Beware of repeats, avoid the ? door unless the other prizes are something you already have, and get ready for the Fancy equivalent of a grind. You will need to repeat levels until you have all 141 fashion items. Take breaks, play coop for more fun, and Be Fancy. Once you earn this trophy the hardest is over.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1701/UP9RDQ4=.jpg-Storyteller(B)

Collect all 9 Message Bottles

 

None of the bottles are really hidden, so I don't expect anyone to have much trouble with this. These do count towards 100% on a level, so be on the lookout for these. In my experience, I would say all of them are on the commonly travelled path.

 

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/images/achievements/1701/UPvGwlA=.jpg-Better than the developers(S)

Get a gold medal in all the Challenges

 

Obtaining gold on every challenge may seem like a daunting task, but its not. Some of the races may be tricky with you falling a few hundredths of a second short, but trail and error will play a part in knowing your route. Be aware that you will need to obtain all 60 stars (or pretty close to it) to unlock every challenge. Don't worry about this until your ready to go for Fancy Fashion. Meaning you should have 100% of the rest of the game, and have honed your fancy skills. Be Fast, Be Fancy, Be a winner.

Just a heads up, a snail shell can bounce off a wall. My girlfriend and I did this in co-op in between two buildings in the first level, squiggleville. I remember doing it on Kongregate way back in the day and the only way I could get that badge was to get it to bounce off a wall, finding two made it easier, co-op made it a cinch. Anyway, walls are okay! They probably just have to be completely vertical.

Oh good to know walls are cool! The 10 is a cinch compared to 30 on Kong though

I've had all the badges for these games on Kong, I'm disappointed that I can't seem to find 7 squigglies in world 2 level 1. Iv'e gone through the level multiple times, nothin'...

 

EDIT: Figured it out, I had to go to "start" to start level 1 from the very beginning. I never ended up doing that before >.< that's where the 7 missing ones are.
