I love how much SpongeBob's strength varies. In the cartoon they have an episode where he can't bench-press q-tips and then this game implies he tore the pelt off of an undersea leopard.
This was one of my first PC games, next to Employee of the Month! Revisiting this game really threw me for a loop when I understood all the adult jokes that Sandy had made
What I find particularly interesting about this title in AWE's SpongeBob PC game series is that it's the only one that has more of a 3D (pre-rendered) art direction for its environments (backgrounds and stuff). The other games use more of a hand-drawn style that matches the TV show more.
I’m not sure if many people experiences as well but I have no idea how little kids even got past the Sandy Lasso stage it takes me multiple tries to finish usually
"with the release of RotFD in 2002 spongebob made his break into the home console gaming scene" i will not stand for this blatant supersponge erasure. or maybe i will...
Ah, this one. I remember my dad bringing this one home from Circuit City when he bought a DVD player and helping me install it. My dad and my mom played this with me a lot because it was the hardest one, easily. I remember loving parts of this game as kid and hating parts of it as a kid. Mermalair is sheer hell, but I remember really enjoying the Dutchman's Graveyard and Kelp Forest. The raft game and the one where Mr. Krabs fights the robots are huge nostalgic memories for me and remind me of one nice morning in like 2004/2005 where my grandmother came over and played it with me. This one for some reason has the most memories associated with it, good and bad. That damn fucking arm game in the Chum Bucket is one of the biggest memories for how hard it was. It took me and my mom like an hour and a half the first time to beat. I think that's what probably makes this one my least replayed of the bunch, as when I was young I remember it being hard to finish, so I stuck with the other ones. What's crazy is that I found out the PS2 was the real version of the game through this one. I thought this was the main game but when I saw the PS2 version in stores I was shocked. I remember being so excited to play the PS2 version and it was so much better it blew me away. So in many ways I'm glad I played this one as it made me aware of the PS2 version and gave me great memories, but also reminds me of great days playing with my parents. It is not the best of the six, because as you said this one was very wonky. I don't think it's the worst either. It was a mixed bag. I honestly like Operation: Krabby Patty more, for the cutscenes alone. The humor, energy, and dialogue was better in the first two games. Still a fun time.
Yeah, that arm stage still puzzles me to this day. But this game definitely exudes nostalgia. I also feel particular nostalgia toward the Flying Dutchman's Graveyard, maybe because that was the first stage I ever played. I had this one before I had any console versions, but I knew how different they were because my friend had one on the PS2. I have this one memory of telling her that I beat the game and she was so astounded by it. She didn't know the PC version was different.
@@lucililium The crate level with the pretty music in Dutchman's Graveyard is one of the most cherished memories in my childhood. Whenever I put on that OST is like sheer bliss to me. Reminds me of childhood memories I forgot to time. I remember a kid at school had played it as well but he had the GameCube version, and I thought that was different so I begged my parents to get me a GameCube lmfao, they did not cave. I later played the GameCube version when I got my Wii like two years later and being like "glad I didn't force my parents to get a GameCube," lol. I also remember that same guy gave me his second copy of Supersponge when mine broke. He was such a nice kid, I wonder what happened to him.
Messing with some of the files to get the game running on the steam deck usually running some older versions of proton 6 usually fixes some of the graphic glitches in the games
I always thought that the reason Plankton couldn’t just flick the obey switch to off is simply because of his small size, but it is still baffling why he didn’t just figure out a way to reach it, at least in the console game it makes sense because he was kicked out and couldn’t just get back in with the tight security system.
I appreciate that someone on English UA-cam talks about Spongebob PC port games, since they were very popular in Russia unlike console versions. Hope to see more
I'm pretty sure somewhere in my folder of childhood doodles I still have the code for the Hall of Arms minigame written down. Had a real soft spot for these games as a kid, though I was definitely disappointed that BFBB wasn't a straight port of the console game.
I always regretted not writing it down/memorizing it because whenever I replayed it I got the arms stage and it pissed me off. 😂 So many hours wasted on that stage.
Imma shoot ya straight, I had this version as a kid, my sister and I would play it together. One of my strongest memories involves is taking turns in the bowling mini game and trying to beat each others high scores. And immma be real I DIDNT KNOW THERE WAS A CONSOLE VERSION FOR AT LEAST 13 YEARS 😅
Communism is definitely Mr. Krabs' archenemy. In the episode "Squid on Strike" Spongebob literally destroys the Krusty Krab to fight against Mr. Krabs' capitalist tyranny.
There are a few dirty jokes in spongebob but they are normally very subtle. This game was not subtle at all with the size doesn't matter joke than sandy literally laughing at her own joke
I remember getting this from my aunt for Christmas 2004. I was excited that it was another game compared to the console bc I could have "2 different versions" but as a kid I only ever beat the PC version. Go figure

I noticed something: the missing textures are specifically blank white being misread as transparent by new hardware
Nice observation! Gotta love when that happens. At least it made the experience unique in a strange sort of way.

Same here! (as far as I remember anyway)

7:38 - those are actually stalactites because they're hanging from the ceiling, whereas stalagmites come up from the ground
I'm so glad that the difficulty of the Hall of Arms minigame in the Chum Bucket wasn't just my eight-year-old brain being stupid 😅
I remember asking my mom for help in that minigame god i hated it back then but its one of my faforates now
I’m not sure if many people experiences as well but I have no idea how little kids even got past the Sandy Lasso stage it takes me multiple tries to finish usually
So, I wasn't the only one who was frustrated with this game as a kid. I couldn't beat any of the first levels, it was so frustrating!
AWE?!
AWE is like a innocent baby that doesn't mean any harm but when the lights go dark, the baby starts becoming, naughty.

VERY interesting video for sure, always love me obscure stuff
5:13 I hate how Patrick is built like a Roblox character💀
I played this growing up but i don’t have the disk anymore thanks for the nostalgia!

"OH YEAH MR KRABS!!"
Man, really great videos on the channel- you need more subs!

I would have found it hilarious if the PC version of Rehydrated was an HD version of this game instead of just a port proper of the Console version.

This is like that Prison joke in 'Gary takes a bath' but a lot weirder.
I remember playing this game when I was a kid. Obviously it’s tough around the edges, but it’s an ok game.
AWB a naughty naughty game studio 13:10
Good to see I'm not the only one having issues with the white eye textures refusing to render..
Squidward argued with Barnacle Boy in the shrink ray episode and he was Captain Magma.
It's so cool to see how different this is from the console versions! Also the cheetah fur?! LUCI!!!!😱
Gosh, I LOVED this game as a child!
5:55 - I get it. Cough Cough "Employe of The Month"
So they just started executing hostages
I actually bought this one expecting the other Battle for Bikini Bottom. Since then its sitting in a cardboard box
Patrick looks like he took his glasses off

PETA would have a field day with this game
This was my first SpongeBob game, though I always preferred Employee of the Month
Communism is definitely Mr. Krabs' archenemy.
In the episode "Squid on Strike" Spongebob literally destroys the Krusty Krab to fight against Mr. Krabs' capitalist tyranny.
Is that where SpongeBob says he’ll be in strike forever?
@@gracekim1998 yes. The whole Episode is basicly a reference to the social democrats and communists in the Weimar republic

Spongebob kills a cat (2003 colorized)
I remember this game from a Puffs pc demo sampler disc.
0:03 Why not just talk about this one?
0:06 And that one?
0:08 And that?
I thought i was the only one having problems with the textures
You don't happen to be living in the Netherlands, do you? I know somebody in real-life that physically looks very similar to you. 😅
Unfortunately I don't, but ask them if they've played the SpongeBob PC games anyway.
@@lucililium Will do! And can't wait for your next video in this series!
Wow, the size doesn't matter comment was so out of left field.
15:30 😂
Has anyone ever told you that you look like PapaGenos? He's a UA-camr who covers Nintendo games and sometimes licensed games like you do.
To be fair, Patrick is dumb, so he probably doesn't know that menace means evil. I apologize if I somehow just offended some people. 😔
Well this is interesting 🤔 and I see your avatar is accurate 😉

This was the only battle for bikini bottom I played and I loved it! I’m shocked so few people know of its existence!
