⚙️ Details

The core of Fancy Pants is its physics-based movement. You can run incredibly fast, and this momentum can be carried into long jumps and wall jumps. The key strategy is to link your moves together seamlessly: a long run into a slide under an obstacle, followed by a jump onto a wall, then a wall-jump to a higher ledge. This fluid, combo-like feeling is unlike the stop-and-start nature of many platformers, and more acrobatic than even Dino Bros. The game is about exploring the large, open levels to find secrets, defeat spiders, and reach the goal.

▶️ How to play

Use your controls to run left and right and to jump. Press down while running to slide. Jump against walls to perform a wall jump. Navigate through the levels, stomping on spiders to defeat them, and collecting ‘squiggles’. The main goal is to reach the door at the end of each level.

💡 Tips and Tricks

Use downhill slopes to build up incredible speed. This speed can then be used to launch you over huge gaps. Sliding is not just for dodging; it is also a great way to take out enemies. Explore everywhere; the levels are filled with secret doors and hidden areas containing extra lives and squiggles.

🕹️ Controls

Use the Left and Right Arrow keys to run. Press S to jump. Press the Down Arrow while running to slide. Press Up Arrow to open doors.
