Maybe now people won't see this game as some kind of meme game like Animorphs. I'm pretty sure Spongebob's one of the franchises that actually got lucky with some good licensed games anyway, so i'm not sure how that stereotype got started.
It does have a route and people run it, but (at least IMO) the route's sort of... meh. There's a lot of brutal skips accompanied by a long amount of time where very little happens.
eh the movie suffers from too much grinding and walking. no superspeed tech like this game and yeah some skips in that game are pretty hard but none compare to the ones you witnessed in this run
SHiFT, was super glad to see you at AGDQ. Your run was the highlight of the event for me. Battle for Bikini Bottom is such an interesting speedgame and you are great at informing people about the tech behind the run as it happens. So many runners just do the trick and either stay silent or say what the trick is. You keep things interesting. I hope the GDQ people invite you back for SGDQ.
I believe the crowd was pretty small too. Makes it harder to make people laugh, because even if one person would laugh, it would only be one person, which may make it awkward or cause people to surpress laughs to not be heard.
I can't believe they played this game. I officially love this speed-running community about three times more than I previously did. Who else still loves this game anyways? I think it's way too vintage to just forget about
Man I love this game. Definitely a great game to speedrun. I love that even as a kid I did some of these time saving tricks before knowing what speedrunning was because I did multiple playthroughs and wanted to get to the end as fast as possible. Seeing this feels good
I remember when i first discovered the gdq archives, i actually was really hoping to find this and a couple other games in the backlog. I played this game for hours as a child, and when i could not find a run in the gdq uploads, i figured nobody cared enough to run this game. I had a blast watching this and thanks for allowing this to run! 100% hype?
When I was younger I only played Revenge of the Flying Dutchman and didn't really like it. Now, I want to play this version because it seems so much better! Excellent run!
Yeah, Flying Dutchman sucks. The development was rushed, and the game is just broken. Not even in a fun way. This game and the Spongebob Squarepants Movie game far surpass it.
Thank god Shift is such a good presenter because the couch were pretty bad this time around. He basically carried the run in terms of commentary. It was pretty funny when he asked people what their favorite episode was and got an awkward silence. LOL
I love this game. I definitely need to play it again sometime. Not having played it since I was a kid, this blew my mind. I didn't expect this game to have so much speed tech.
I loved this game so much when I was a kid. I couldn't understand english back then and unfortunately the game was in english, but I still played the hell out of it. So many great memories
Good run! And Coel was there! I always liked his routing and glitch videos for this game. I also was excited for Hazel's TAS progress, it's a shame it's been put on hold for now but hopefully she'll come back to it.
Man i can't wait to play this game and i hope this game comes not to late next year as if they make it to late i probably will forget this game came out has close to end of 2020 the gaming world will change.
"Spongebob BFBB" would be odd for people who don't know the game. Just typing "Spongebob Squarepants" is the easiest and best option for both viewers and the uploader.
THQ Nordic NEEDS to bring back this game. It doesn't deserve to be good, but it was and still is, and we need it once more! I mean... I'm not kidding when I say I played this more than Halo 1 and 2 combined on the original Xbox. Maybe even more than Battlefront II. This was an amazing run and it was great being able to see all these things for the first time in more than a decade before watching them be thoroughly destroyed and manipulated.
Ohhhh my god i loved this game i had it for gamecube *-* i missed this speedrun live but now i can watch it :D thank you for bringing the game to agdq x3
HeyKid. So rad to see SHiFT on GDQ! Been following his streams and runs for the past few months now and he's always working to improve his WR, keep up the good work man. Been around for the best and worst streams lmao
This was one of my favorite games as a kid. It's nice seeing Rock Bottom because I could never load that area since my disc was scratched. The game would just freeze when I went there.
Very cool to see this game getting taken seriously! I always loved it as a kid, but I feel like a lot of people either don't know it or judge it before playing it and assume its a bad game.
my youth..... took me forever to beat this game. the movie game was basically the same engine but better graphics. i owned both as well as the flying dutchman game and the multiplayer minigame one, all were super fun but this was the best.
all I can think of when I watch this is why didn't I try that when I was a kid playing it XD made it look easy man nice speedrun thanks for bringing back memories
This was a lot of fun. Hopefully I can get this game into SGDQ!
SHiFT I've been watching you run this game for a few months now, great run
yeah it's just unfortunate that it was so early into the day. so many people said they missed it because of that.
hi shift!
Aw, would've been really cool if you hit a sub 1 live! Almost, :P
Loved the run Shift! Me and a few friends woke up at 6AM just to watch! Keep up the good work.
SpongeBob Squarepants by shift but everytime he says first try it gets faster
Corey Chen we are number one but replaced by Shifts first try
Corey Chen I would be so down for this.
World record instantly
Corey Chen that's just what this run is :p
This comment is so true though
13:46
Bogdan Korsunovskiy You're a bro.
+
Bogdan Korsunovskiy the work of god
Why?
Not all heroes wear capes...
glad I could be on the couch
Redmoss the 2 words you said touched my heart in a way you can never understand.

edfreak9001 nice profile pic
Thanks.
some are good some are revenge of the flying dutchman
There are stinkers but there are some legit really solid games. Some franchises don't even get past mediocre games. (Adventure Time comes to mind)
Finally someone who understands. This game is one of the best platformer games I know
Me: When I first tried this game... (gets interrupted)
SHIFT: Did someone said first try?!
Thunderous Applause
Diego Andres Me: And this goes into recycle-
(Gets interrupted)
Shift: *DID SOMEONE SAY CYCLE?*
I wish the crowd had a little more energy during this run. It was at like 6 AM though so it's understandable.
It's 3am and I have work tomorrow so I spend my time watching a spongebob speed run
I get it
I remember twitch chat was spamming Spatula Get lol, very nice run shift!!!
shawn tran First try
thank god this game is finally being ran! Hopefuly we get the movie game ran too
Spoopy Sauce it is being ran!
Good to know! :D
It does have a route and people run it, but (at least IMO) the route's sort of... meh. There's a lot of brutal skips accompanied by a long amount of time where very little happens.

The movie game kind of sucked compared to this game though.
Who else is here watching again, after the bfbb documentary part 2 dropped?
yep
Aquí uno!
Yas
Absolutely. Can't wait for parts 3 and 4.
@@morgandusin2401 you literally cant wait xD
this is so weirdly cool. Trust nobody, not even Squidward's house
dynaboyj L. *squidwards house leans in*
"First try"
*applause
Nah jk pretty fun speedrun
Nojical Somebody should make a "First try applause" compilation :D
crowd manipulation is fun
crowd manipulation, what is this, a TTYD run from 2013 LUL
When your dad beats your mom first try...
"alright cruise boost first try"
Im so glad that SHIFT was able to run this game at AGDQ, I hope to see you next time.
SHiFT, was super glad to see you at AGDQ. Your run was the highlight of the event for me. Battle for Bikini Bottom is such an interesting speedgame and you are great at informing people about the tech behind the run as it happens.

Awesome speed run
Tough crowd
Lol.
My favorite run of this year's GDQ by far!~
Schrikvis SPATULA GET
hahahahaha. im holding the world record in SS:BFBB. its actually under 2 minutes 😁
Razorgames was this you in the gameplay? You are absolutely wonderful!
Can't find the proof run on your channel, link?
Not even battle for Bikini Bottom, just Spongebob Squarepants. No respect :(
Easily the best Spongebob game ever made and I've played quite a lot of them
This game was my childhood, i still have it on gamecube.
same
I used to rent that game when we had blockbuster. Now I have it for my PS2.
same
Same I have it (mine is the player’s choice edition.)
I've been waiting for this!
CALEB DOOM me too!
Wow, this was actually one of my favorite runs this year. Never thought I'd see this in GDQ.
Introduction and Runstart are at around 13:25 since I can't find it anywhere in the comments I'll just post this here :D
Cheers
RAVIOLI RAVIOLI
GIVE ME THE FORMUOLI
MEATBALL, MEATBALL, SPAGHETTI UNDERNEATH
WHATS IN THE POCKETOLI
Djens Zooi
Oh neptune
Don't lewd the dragon loli?
Tough crowd.
right? i thought he was pretty funny;p
I believe the crowd was pretty small too. Makes it harder to make people laugh, because even if one person would laugh, it would only be one person, which may make it awkward or cause people to surpress laughs to not be heard.
To be fair, the target audience here is antisocial teenagers.
this was at 8am unless it’s a block it’s usually a scarce crowd until 9-10am
It was 8:00 am though
Very entertaining run by a talented player. This was my first video game I ever owned.. Best christmas of my life
I can't believe they played this game. I officially love this speed-running community about three times more than I previously did. Who else still loves this game anyways? I think it's way too vintage to just forget about
holy shit i've been waiting for this game to get in for years
Sleeping happy now knowing that my countless prayers to get this game in a GDQ since 2012 have finally been heard.
Imagine getting manipulated by a troll account into banning a streamer who would’ve made this god awful event better
Mhm
@ Lmao what a piece of shit response, I can tell you must be fun literally nowhere
why does the title just call the game "spongebob squarepants"
these are all uploaded straight after they are run on stream so im sure they are in a rush to get the first batch of run segments uploaded
Awesome event
It's not only notable Spongebob Game so it makes sense
Video titles have a character limit; maybe the full game title went over limit?
So much love for this game! Awesome run, the guy running it is a legend
seeing this run before sba is such a trip
Man I love this game. Definitely a great game to speedrun. I love that even as a kid I did some of these time saving tricks before knowing what speedrunning was because I did multiple playthroughs and wanted to get to the end as fast as possible. Seeing this feels good
It amazes me. Watching this after five years. Seeing his new routes and comparing them is surprises me.
Run is at 13:47
I remember when i first discovered the gdq archives, i actually was really hoping to find this and a couple other games in the backlog. I played this game for hours as a child, and when i could not find a run in the gdq uploads, i figured nobody cared enough to run this game. I had a blast watching this and thanks for allowing this to run! 100% hype?
shift doesn't run 100% and i don't remember if the 100% runners were interested in going to gdq
The crowd was so quiet I felt like shift said a lot of super funny stuff
This game was my childhood. I never imagined I'd see it again.
When I was younger I only played Revenge of the Flying Dutchman and didn't really like it. Now, I want to play this version because it seems so much better! Excellent run!
This game is amazing, especially playing it casually. One of my personal favorites.
Yeah, Flying Dutchman sucks. The development was rushed, and the game is just broken. Not even in a fun way. This game and the Spongebob Squarepants Movie game far surpass it.
*The run I've been waiting for!*
been following shifts youtube ever since he first submitted his agdq entry. glad to see this finally come out as a success
I was throbbing at the thought of the VOD going up soon.. this was hands down the only game I was excited for this year!! Good shit SHiFT!!
Thank god Shift is such a good presenter because the couch were pretty bad this time around. He basically carried the run in terms of commentary. It was pretty funny when he asked people what their favorite episode was and got an awkward silence. LOL
Squidward's Dream was ALWAYS one of my worst nightmares playing casually. You made it look like a lvl. 1 tutorial.
I loved playing this game growing up! Its cool seeing a speed run on this!
13:30 is start time
I absolutely loved this game as a kid. So glad to see this being run
Dang. I remember playing this game when it came out. This guy is good!
Man I am happy this game got the audience it deserves wish I could have saw it live but still nice run
I love this game. I definitely need to play it again sometime. Not having played it since I was a kid, this blew my mind. I didn't expect this game to have so much speed tech.
Whoa you're quick!
At 42:18 he forgot to build speed for 12 hours
Awesome run and awesome runner/commentary. One of my favorite runs this agdq.
so many childhood memories bought straight back thank you
I loved this game so much when I was a kid. I couldn't understand english back then and unfortunately the game was in english, but I still played the hell out of it. So many great memories
It took so long for this game to get in but it's finally at a GDQ. Thank goodness since this game is fantastic.
This game is amazing, this run was amazing, dank memes bro. Loved it
24:18 was some super clean platforming wowie
Good run! And Coel was there! I always liked his routing and glitch videos for this game. I also was excited for Hazel's TAS progress, it's a shame it's been put on hold for now but hopefully she'll come back to it.
Man i can't wait to play this game and i hope this game comes not to late next year as if they make it to late i probably will forget this game came out has close to end of 2020 the gaming world will change.
the name needs to be changed. its not just spongebob squarepants...
Flutterdrive Might as well change the name of the tv show too huh?
Uh... what i meant was that the game is called spongebob squarepants battle for bikini bottom. Not just spongebob...
spongebob bfbb
"Spongebob BFBB" would be odd for people who don't know the game. Just typing "Spongebob Squarepants" is the easiest and best option for both viewers and the uploader.
Necrobones Plus Battle for Bikini Bottom would work.
Oh, how I wish there were boss trigger skips for robo-Sandy and robo-Patrick...
If only...
SHiFT just shredded through this, and I love every second of this.
THQ Nordic NEEDS to bring back this game. It doesn't deserve to be good, but it was and still is, and we need it once more!
I mean... I'm not kidding when I say I played this more than Halo 1 and 2 combined on the original Xbox. Maybe even more than Battlefront II. This was an amazing run and it was great being able to see all these things for the first time in more than a decade before watching them be thoroughly destroyed and manipulated.
Well do I got some good news for you
Ohhhh my god i loved this game i had it for gamecube *-* i missed this speedrun live but now i can watch it :D thank you for bringing the game to agdq x3
HeyKid. So rad to see SHiFT on GDQ! Been following his streams and runs for the past few months now and he's always working to improve his WR, keep up the good work man. Been around for the best and worst streams lmao
God, I love this game so much
Anyone here after Rehydrated came out?
I used to play this game everyday when I was young, I love it so much
This game is one of my favorites and is super underrated
I wish Heavy Iron could make a new Spongebob game, as good as this.
Movie game
MY CHILDHOOD
I wish there was a true sequel to this awesome game
memories man! i loved this game
I've been watching SHiFT's runs for so long. I love this game. How have I never seen this GDQ?!
an awesome game ran quick by an awesome person. weil done Shift :D
This was one of my favorite games as a kid. It's nice seeing Rock Bottom because I could never load that area since my disc was scratched. The game would just freeze when I went there.
man this game brings memories
I love this game so much. thanks for the memories
I remember playing this when I was like 5 at the mall in those playrooms they had for the kids. Wow. That was the great
Take a shot every time he says first try
No. I don't wanna die.
Very cool to see this game getting taken seriously! I always loved it as a kid, but I feel like a lot of people either don't know it or judge it before playing it and assume its a bad game.
This game actually looks like it'd be fun to play. Awesome run and runner! :)
Kelsey Chaney the game is a ton of fun: I completed it 100% multiple times as a kid. Definitely pick it up
"according to all known laws of physics the sponge should not be able to fly but the sponge flies anyways" god damn I love you SHIFT
best run in whole agdq, awesome game awesome runner!!!
My favorite spongebob episode are Reef Blower and Kursty Krab Training Video...
Hoping this can go to SGDQ this year!
This run is amazing. Def top 10
I remember playing this when I was younger! this game is... not easy. it had pretty good atmosphere in quite a lot of levels too,
This game was my jam back in the day. Classsic.
lol his old runs were very different
Ikr
the Run i got hyped for before the event
That was the most interesting speed run I've ever watched
13:09 is the start of the run. Thumb up for visibility.
This was uploaded the day before National Annoy Squidward day. :P
Today I woke up on my first try.
SHIFT LITERAL GOD.
I WATCHED HIM GET WR LIVE ON TWITCH AS WELL
my youth..... took me forever to beat this game. the movie game was basically the same engine but better graphics. i owned both as well as the flying dutchman game and the multiplayer minigame one, all were super fun but this was the best.
Shift you legend mate.
all I can think of when I watch this is why didn't I try that when I was a kid playing it XD made it look easy man nice speedrun thanks for bringing back memories
58:26 Spongebob basically found the Emergency Instant Defeat Prong Button.
