This video game is extremely nostalgic for me and i also feel that it's pretty underrated. It tends to get overshadowed by Battle for Bikini Bottom, but this game is a bit of a hidden gem. Doesn't get talked about nearly as much as it should

My dad was one of the main animators for this game, he worked at THQ back in 2003 and helped make all sorts of games including Warhammer 40k. Glad to see my dad has brought you and so many others joy, I loved playing his game when I was younger though I never beat it!

My favorite part about this game is that it came out before the movie did, and it just spoiled the entire plot. What a wild time that was. Great game though. I honestly preferred this to Battle for Bikini Bottom growing up.

[@EighmyLupin]

This game really feels like they just took Battle for Bikini Bottom and reskined it for the movie. And considering that this came out roughly a year after Battle for Bikini Bottom, that's probably what happened

[@thewiseoldfox]

@@EighmyLupin that is very common practice to this day with sequels and spin-offs tbh to do literally just that. It was the norm back in the day to have a sequel come out 1-2 years later, and this age we have the modern Spiderman games doing something similar, and people hated Miles Morales at launch because of how it was "just Spiderman PS4 again", which reinforces the reason we see sequel games every 5-8 years now

[@bobodalien1804]

i preferred battle for bikini bottom more cause it interacts more with the characters. And the monsters are cooler. This is still a good game though.

[@Neomeniaaa]

@@thewiseoldfox elden ring did the same thing, taking sooooo many assets and stuff from previous games, specifically dark souls 3 stuff was easy to spot. It's honestly just good game development to do this as if it's good why change it, and it allows you to add so much more to it. So I do hope that more games do this more often in the AAA sphere again.

[@thewiseoldfox]

@@Neomeniaaa the crazy thing is, people's general opinion when there's discussion is a lot more open than how we feel in private or how we act towards the devs. AAA devs may be greedy, but they do what they do to gain the most profits, and a large part of that is public opinion surveys in which people don't know what they actually want

[@Neomeniaaa]

I've never seen nor heard of this game before and at the start I was like "aha, cheap movie tie in game that's kinda crap". But the more it went on the more I was like, "this game is an absolute trip and i love it". 10/10 would play myself

[@creamsoda2392]

I'm sure I'd have said the same thing if I first heard of it now instead of when I was like 6 years old, but holy shit this game is awesome. Watching this speedrun I'm realizing that it's much harder than I gave it credit for.

This game used to take me 9 hours, not even for completion, i am VERY impressed that you beat in in under 2 hours, and the speedrunning community.

That was once my favourite video game when I was a kid. I mean, I never played it, but watching playthroughs of it was just so fun. This game is so full of whimsy. This, and Plankton's Robotic Revenge. Good memories.

[@princessofsparkles4512]

I was actually hoping you’d play this one while rewatching your battle for bikini bottom speedruns. I’ve played rehydrated and cosmic shake and I haven’t been able to get my hands on this game but seeing you play through it is thoroughly entertaining. Also I love the hour long videos. They are super engaging to watch and great for rewatching in the background while I’m doing other things. I hope these are as enjoyable to make as they are to watch. Keep it up man!

[@PaulEffinger]

18:57 Watching you doing that sliding level brought back some awesome memories; I specifically wanted to decrease my time for the timer challenge and looked up a speedrun for this level. I went on a grind trying to do those skips; too bad I didn’t get it recorded, but I honestly feel satisfied watching you do those jumps; idk how difficult you found them, but they were quite tough!

[@HumbleBeeUK]

I pretty much just finished your entire library on KZbin in the past few days, so I'm very happy to see new content, tysm for the time and effort it takes to learn these speedruns, do a running commentary, and then edit them!

Oh man alive... I loved playing this game on my PlayStation 2 as a kid! I would always restart the first driving section and the bathtub section after finishing them just because they're so fun to play through and not too hard. These days, I could probably fully explore the area and see if there are any hidden easter eggs or things like that in between just having nostalgic fun beating up Plankton's mind-controlled minions, driving the Pattywagon (think that's what it was called, don't really remember its name), and using a bathtub (full of water... underwater... somehow...) to go through and over a dangerous canyon.

The atmosphere was incredible my favorite level being the Patrick ice cream level. So many cool and extreme levels with the PS2 graphics and freaky enemies and classic Spongebob dialog. Favorite movie and favorite game. I always wished Battle for Bikini Bottom was more challenging like this game but I still love it too.

[@motoxdude1137]

MAN I LOVE THIS GAME. Drive of the knucklehead-Mcspazatron was the BANE of my existence when I was a kid. How did you NEVER get that jump into the tunnel wrong? I failed like 5 times the same way because i didn't know you needed to keep the nitro in the air to make it. Also, for King Neptune, double jumping makes it so the next "wave" of energy is close to hitting you. Just single jump for those.

[@yoshispongegirl]

This game, along with Battle for Bikini Bottom, was practically engraved into my brain as a child. I played them religiously after I had my tonsils out, and those gave me happiness. And I always remember trying to do that button skip myself but didn't know it was possible so I failed 😂

[@M1GPlutoski]

This was one of my favourites as a kid. I remember grinding out that hamburger level with the oil slick over and over for the ring run. And I remember how great it felt to get the spongebowl ability. This is one of the great platformers of the era imo.

Literally my favorite childhood game, glad to see it's somehow still getting attention Additional strat: if you upgrade the basic spin attack move, you unlock the ability to parry incoming projectiles straight back to the sender.

About... i think 8 years ago, we decided to 100% it. We got to the Neptune fight and purposely kept throwing the battle, pretending it was super hard 3 and a half hours later, i kid you not, we were STILL struggling to beat him. He and i kept tagging in after every 3 or 5 attempts and finally, FINALLY My brother delivered the winning blow. We never had such relief from a game before, it was borderline divine.
