"maybe more broken" the speedrun for the original battle for bikini bottom is 45 minutes, the speedrun for rehydrated is 3 minutes way more broken.

No, it isn’t. One glitch causes the taxi skip to occur. The original has a lot more broken content as opposed to just an end game skip

The developers specifically said in an interview that they would not be changing the main story with cut content though. Makes sense since shoehorning those kinds of things into the game would make it convoluted, so the compromise was including them in multiplayer (which was unfortunately rushed and tacked on but that's a different story)

Regarding the sock in the theater: In the original game, there was a sock present inside of the theater in the hubworld, but it was marked as inactive and therefore did not show up in game. The data was there though. Purple Lamp used the original level files as a base for the levels in Rehydrated*, so the sock data carried over, but the inactive flag didn't. Evidently, it was overlooked by the level designers. *Fun fact: they even went so far as to use a community-made level editor called "Industrial Park". In later versions of the Rehydrated, the developer of that software is even thanked in the credits.

There's something nostalgic about a game from that era having glitches that aren't game breaking but funny to do.

[@matthewtheobald1231]

I have done a bit of animation. I took a class on it in college. I know that when ever you are doing a squash and stretch animation, any value change in the scale of the character must equal out to zero. So if you subtract from the character's scale you must add back that scale exactly. Otherwise you get something like this where the character either grows or shrinks a little each time it goes through the animation cycle. The devs must have incorrectly balanced out the animation so that the change in scale ends with a positive value rather then zero

[@ChillPrawn3060]

Probably because SpongeBob is set to m for mini and Patrick to w for wumbo

Mind-Blowing how this was uploaded REALLY early in the game's life...

[@Meximagician]

13:16 The objects that are solid despite being out of bounds are instances of objects that are also found in the 'in bounds' parts of the game. Instancing simple objects like those rocks is pretty common. I think the only reason the tree dome objects are instanced is because they can be seen from multiple angles, so it was easier to instance them than create new objects with the same models. And ground meshes typically are one big mesh, all of which has collision enabled. It's easier than trying to have multiple giant meshes perfectly lined up or having only parts of the mesh be solid.

"I'm not really sure how the devs didnt catch this" maybe because its a licensed IP game, thus is subject to "You WILL release it at this time!" quotas and also banking on the hardcore spongebob fans to buy it anyway so they dont need to super polish it?

[@lableak7256]

in case anyone is wondering about the weird sock in the theater/ any weird placed models or whatever, the reason it's there is because rehydrated was made off of the original game. The original game was ported over into unity using a community made tool called industrial park. Some things were left in some weren't. all of the models were brought in from the original to make it an almost 1:1 scale. If you go out of bounds in sandy's tree dome you can see that the map is actually just the old one imported. If you take the camera under Mrs. puff in rock bottom you can see a model for a shiny object. To someone new to the game they'd find this strange but if you speed run the original you'd remember that underneath Mrs. puff in rock bottom there is a shiny object with a trigger that gives you all the paintings needed for that spatula immediately. If you guys have any other questions about the game i'll try to respond the best i can.

I have to be honest, this episode really dragged. The 'live' section for getting out of bounds took up sooo much time and really didn't jive with the energy of the rest of the episode.

[@ALinkttF]

Ditto

[@Hexatunes]

I ACCIDENTALLY FOUND A COOL GLITCH!!! It's super easy to do (This still works in 1.0.3): 1. Go out of bounds using the easy glitch at 6:51 2. There is a small purple cliff behind you with a sand overhang 3. Start hugging the tiny purple cliff while jumping and hitting your head on the sand overhang 4. You should start to do that sliding thing, make sure you're as close as possible to the cliff 5. Hans should try to put you back in bounds but..... 6. when he does you should actually by *inside* of the floor 7. Shortly after you'll start falling through the floor and into the void! I would record the glitch but the game won't let me record the software so I'll have to wait until I get my new camera and record the screen. If anyone does this glitch please tell me! I'm not sure if I'm the first person to find this

[@marioman1242]

Your videos definitely inspired me to try rubbing up against every wall and trying any clip or almost-jump possible in this game and it honestly became one of my favourite parts of the whole experience, just trying to break it or get to places I wasn't really intended to be just yet. Getting that crazy jump just right feels so good. Also found that OOB glitch where you constantly jump to gain height (not like it was hard to find). Used it right before you go to the sandcastle in Goo Lagoon to get on top of that sand shelf. The top of it has weird invisible wall collision (for some reason), and a place you can slide into and get stuck seemingly in nothing. Was fun completing the sandcastle from the Kelp Caves end LOL.

[@PrincessGemu]

Gotta say, I really enjoyed the bit with /you/ in it (from a stream I assume) showing the out of bounds stuff. This is just my opinion, but I feel like it would be way more fun, and personal in a way, to see you perform these glitches in person, with a controller or etc on camera (maybe a second camera shoving the button presses). This would OFC be way more time consuming, especially with hard glitches, but just a fun idea. Maybe for smaller glitches it would be fun. Trying to reach out to more people. Anyway, this was an enjoyable episode. The Patrick n Spongebob glitch was insane. Hope you're doing well in these times man. Lots of love and support from Sweden!
