NEW UPDATES
A collection of games have all timed free updates and big announcements for this event!

WizardChess
WizardChess is a chess-like tactical roguelike with a near infinitely replayable amount of variety and depth. And today takes us a step closer to FULLY infinite replayability, with the addition of Daily Runs!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1274210/WizardChess/

Starground
At the end of 2024 Starground revealed a planned development roadmap. Today sees the Brewconomic Cropdate, adding animals, fishing, potion brewing, and an improved Space Hub.

Magenta Horizon
In addition to making the awesome art for this sale, solo-dev Maddison Baek has crafted new community items for Magenta Horizon! Play the game to earn Trading Cards, and unlock awesome profile backgrounds and other Steam goodies.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2109060/Magenta_Horizon__Neverending_Harvest/

Schism
Schism has a new update dropping Feb 10th that adds some end-game content, and enhanced controller support. Keep your eyes peeled for that! But the BIG news here, is that Schism is leaving Early Access MARCH 10th!! There is no discount now, so as not to conflict with that launch discount.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2084300/Schism/

Tower of Kalemonvo
While this classic-style hack n slash ARPG isn't out yet, it did just receive yet another demo update. The name of the game right now is polish, preparing for our newly set released date of MARCH 28th!!

LOGO UPDATE
I'm burying the lead a little here. But as a part of this event, I'm also debuting a redesigned 2 Left Thumbs Publishing logo - made by Fiend Folio artist RedRachis!

Super Fancy Pants Adventure - 2 Left Thumbs
The annual Steam Summer Sale is here!!


Thousands of games are on sale across Steam, including a 50% discount on Super Fancy Pants Adventure! Consider grabbing the game bundled with the Classic Pack for additional savings (or scope out one of the other bundles offered this sale).

https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/22346/The_Complete_Fancy_Pants_Adventures/

The entire 2 Left Thumbs publishing catalog is on sale. Be sure to browser that selection to see what other quality games might strike your fancy.

UPDATE?
Brad has been hard at work on a new update for Super!! This is primarily to address performance and stability - as that has depreciated some over the last ~7 years.

This can be accessed in the SFPA Beta branch:
Right click the game in your Steam library > Properties > Beta tab > use code "kittenkabootle" > Check code > Select the beta in the dropdown
You should see an update initiate, which confirms it has worked!

Your feedback on this beta would be greatly appreciated!!
We wanted to have this public in time for the sale, but the current build isn't quite stable enough. This update ended up being a LOT more effort than anyone was expecting! We should have more to share "soon".

COMING SOON
A new game published by 2 Left Thumbs, hailing from another legendary Flash dev, is coming soon!

Keep an eye out for Gorgon Shield, from the creator of Swords and Sandals. It is a party-based RPG, arcade, roguelike. And I can guarantee you haven't played another quite like it!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2446920/Gorgon_Shield/

There is large demo for you to play around in. And please be sure to add it to your Wishlist!

2D Platformer Vibes


As a part of this wonderful celebration of 2D platformers here on Steam, we've extended the discounts on both Super and the Classic Pack launch until March 3rd!

Bundled Discounts
In honor of this event, you can buy Super Fancy Pants Adventure alongside a selection of other indie platforming titles at a heavy discount, as a part of the Ultimate Platformer Pack.

https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/37938/Ultimate_Platformer_Pack/

Another Flash Classic!
This includes William and Sly, which just launched today! No, it's not a 2D platformer. But the original games were, and this newest release builds directly off that Flash gaming legacy!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2459620/William_and_Sly/
Super Fancy Pants Adventure - 2 Left Thumbs
CLASSIC PACK
The long wait is finally over!
The Fancy Pants Adventures: Classic Pack has now released in Early Access

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1668460/The_Fancy_Pants_Adventures_Classic_Pack/

Brad has primarily developed these games out in the open for 18 years. Boxing the fans out of the development process for the Classic Pack just didn't sit well with us. Playtesters have already been critical for ensuring these Worlds feel like you remember them, despite being heavily reworked and enhanced.

Early Access launch:
"Classic" versions of Worlds 1, 2 and 3 are all available!
(Worlds 1 and 2 have received some extra polish, like 60fps enhancements, still coming to World 3)

Additional Worlds, Remasters, side-games, 100% original bonus levels, localization, achievements, a Treasure Trove of behind-the-scenes inclusions for the fans, and whatever else we can think to add will all be coming over the course of Early Access!!

BUNDLE
If you already own Super, still use the bundle link, as it will grant you an additional 20% discount on the Classic Pack, without requiring you to re-purchase Super!! (Super will be 50% off starting February 19th. Sorry that discount is out of sync).



2 LEFT THUMBS
In case you missed it, there is a second news post about this major change-up! Starting from today, 2 Left Thumbs is now the publisher of both The Fancy Pants Adventures: Classic Pack AND Super Fancy Pants Adventures.

Flash games defined my childhood, and having remakes and sequels to so many of those classic titles be a part of my publishing catalog feels like a full-circle moment for me, tying together a lifetime of fandom for Flash and indie games of all kinds!

ANOTHER FLASH CLASSIC REBORN
Maybe you played as many Flash games as I did back in the day? One of the most popular and most gorgeous platformers of that time was William and Sly! I am also working with series creator Lucas Paakh to bring the latest installment of his classic series to Steam, reimagined as a open world, 3d platformer!

You can try the public demo now, and see if you like it. William and Sly will release this Spring, so be sure to add it to your Wishlists!

Super Fancy Pants Adventure - 2 Left Thumbs
NEW PUBLISHER
This has been in the works for ages, but as of today I can finally share publicly, that 2 Left Thumbs is now the publisher for Super Fancy Pants Adventure!! First off, I want to thank Kongregate for their years of stewardship for all things Fancy Pants related.

For those who don't know me, my name is Graeme! I'm the founder and sole employee of 2 Left Thumbs, an indie game micro-publisher. I've been a Flash game enthusiast my whole life, and grew up playing Fancy Pants! It is the absolute honor of a lifetime to now be carrying that torch <3

A few sleuths in the Discord actually figured out this was coming sooner than today, so I'm glad to finally be able to talk about it openly!

CLASSIC PACK!!
You can buy the Fancy Pants Adventures: Classic Pack NOW in Early Access.
If you already own Super, still use the bundle link, as it will grant you an additional discount on the Classic Pack, without requiring you to re-purchase Super!!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1668460/The_Fancy_Pants_Adventures_Classic_Pack/

CHANGES
I intend to take this role seriously. While I can't promise anything as substantial as new content, I'd like to seek out opportunities to improve the overall user experience!
  • The game is bundled with the Classic Pack for an extra discount
  • Both games now properly link to Brad's own page
  • I've localized the pricing, so the game should be cheaper in many regions than it was before!
  • There are several assets that are now considered mandatory for new Steam apps. I've added those all in! So the game should look much prettier in your library from now on
  • General cleanup around the Steam page (I've never agreed with the phrasing of "56 Levels". That should feel more accurate now)
WHAT NEXT?
I already hang out in the Fancy Pants Discord, and have been seeking inspiration for other changes we could make. Things that are already on my list (many of which will have to wait until Brad is rested, and needs a break from Classic Pack work)
  • Adding Trading Cards + Badges + Backgrounds etc
  • Pushing for full Steam Deck compatibility
  • Removing the always-online requirement that can stop you from taking the game on the road.
  • Adding proper key re-binding!!
The main focus will remain on the Classic Pack for the foreseeable future. But please, throw some additional suggestions my way, and I'll see what can be done!

ANOTHER FLASH SEQUEL
Maybe you played as many Flash games as I did back in the day? One of the most popular and most gorgeous platformers of that time was William and Sly! I am also working with series creator Lucas Paakh to bring the latest installment of his classic series to Steam, reimagined as a open world, 3d platformer!

You can try the public demo now, and see if you like it. William and Sly will release this Spring, so be sure to add it to your Wishlists!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2459620/William_and_Sly/
Super Fancy Pants Adventure - 2 Left Thumbs
William and Sly 3
Fans of Fancy Pants (and the Flash gaming golden age at large) will likely remember William and Sly.
A tranquil platforming adventure, where you race through nature as a fox gobbling up mushrooms and uncovering many secrets along the way.

These games are cozy, relaxing, gorgeous - and like Fancy Pants - were made entirely by a solo developer! And the new game is no exception!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2459620/William_and_Sly

To show our support for a fellow Flash gaming legend, we wanted to share that brand new, 3d William and Sly game is coming February 26th! Be sure to try the Free demo available NOW, and to add the game to your Wishlist!


Classic Collection
AND the original William and Sly games are on offer entirely for free. Now is the perfect time to relive these childhood games, or to get caught up ahead of the full release. Thank you for all the support you've continued to show for Flash games and their wonderful history!
