I know what you mean. I think it’s a combination of the premise (Spongebob literally summoned a fking ghost and it plans on killing gary) and the… oddly cheery atmosphere. The music is always super upbeat like there’s nothing to worry about. Also it may just be me, but something about the narrator just… being there is really eerie. Like it gives off the impression that spongebob is hearing voices and the narrator is all in his head 😭
I don’t understand why I loved this game as a child. I had no idea what was going on and I could never beat it or even get past like the first couple levels
@@dylanjackson5917 thank you all lol. I finally know I'm not alone as the only kid that sucked at this game. If they ever remaster it I will for sure love to beat it.
This game always had an eerie vibe to it that left me unsettled at 6 years old. Something about battle for bikini bottom seemed a lot more cheery and safe than this one.
This definitely looks like an unfinished game, it's so obvious how much budget spent on this one compared to BFBB & Monster at Krusty Krab. I'm not even gonna surprise if it were intended to be an indie hi-budget 2003 PS1 horror game ported / changed platform into PS2, it's just like Final Fantasy XIII case
IKR? Every single action restarts the music. I was actually considering to play this game on an emulator because I never got to play It in my childhood but this is a real turn-off for me.
Did anyone notice what the pirate said at the end of the game to sponge bob? "Someone grabbed my booty while I was polishing my cannon" like holy crap xD
When I had this game for ps2, my siblings basically prayed for this game not to crash. I fondly remember the game crashing at around 1:30 and Spongebob would be stuck in a loop saying "Oh, you don't say... you had a-" "Oh, you don't say... you had a-" "Oh, you don't say... you had a-" Those were the days...
It feels weird to say, but I miss the days of hoping to God your games would stay running. Especially whenever you got to a boss or a really complicated part of a game. My poor ps2 controller survived alot of rages🥲
I remember playing the heck out of this game at my local Mcdonald's back in the day. I ended up buying this game for the Nintendo GameCube recently. The nostalgia hit me hard the moment the game started up.
@@therewasnoattempt8373 I know it’s nostalgic, but honestly it’s a rly bad game. It’s not because it’s old. At because it rly doesn’t capture Spongebob well as a show. It seems like the makers maybe watched a few episodes and then made the game off of that.
Wow.... This was THE first game I ever got for the PS2 when I was, maybe, 6 or 7 yrs old. This game, and *Scooby-Doo Night of 100 Frights* ! Nostalgia overload
Yeah I remember here in the UK, there was a cheap deal with 3 ps2 games in an argos catalogue🤣 I got this, scooby doo night of 100 frights and hot wheels world race!! What a time to be alive that was🥹
Depending on the version, this game can crash too. This happened when I had a PS2 version. I'm not sure about Xbox but someone told me this never happens on GameCube.
@@ElectroBlastLuigi yeah it was because of the blue backed discs they used. I remember it stopped working for me and I took it to a GameStop and they explained why
Complete game in 3 and a half hours? What the fuck? The game felt sooooo much longer, i never completed it, I don't think I got passed Jellyfish fields and I remember it taking ages to get there.
Pretty certain I played this game for months. Gave up. Then came back a few years later and played the rest of it in a couple weeks. Defo took at least 4 months lol.
This game is literally so nostalgic. I remember playing this on my dad’s PS2. He still had it for as long as he can remember and he had this game on there as well. Although I never really completed the game cause I never had a memory card to save data and I would always just wonder around the map. I didn’t really care much because I thought it was apart of the game
This game was legitimately unnerving then and even now. The pure silence between character dialogue, the animations, the amount of enemy NPCs compared to BB civilians and don't even get me started on the choice for the narrator for this game, especially when Spongebob suddenly turns towards the screen to talk to the guy while staring into your soul. xD It was just such an eerie atmosphere with quite a few small things that add on to that lonely feeling the game gives you. Plus, all of Bikini Bottom in this game feels HOSTILE. Maybe that's why all of Mr. Krab's customers are staying home lol Anyways, this game definitely wasn't the greatest but I gotta say, this is the closest thing to a Spongebob thriller I've ever played and I'm here for it. 👍 Still play here and there on Dolphin emulator and still get some slight shivers like when I was a kid. Great memories. Alright, random little retrospective done. : P
It always gave me a disc read error. I thought maybe my copy was busted, but I eventually played another copy on a different PS2 and it still gave me an error. Absolutely ridiculous.
I’m sorry but the conspiracy goes even further, the quote from Krabs literally ends at the 20:20 mark. Cementing how the pandemic would last the entire year.
I remember playing this when I was young and not minding it back then, but I can see why many people hated it. I mean there’s like what only a few songs in the inter game, I mean it’s nice hearing it for the first time but after awhile it starts to give headaches. I usually just shut the music off.
Shane of the Mario fans. It wasn’t too bad for a first time attempt at making a 3D spongebob game, sure it was impressive and revolutionary for 2002, but now a days it looks kinda crappy.
Yea especially the one for the jellyfish suit music, it’s the one we use the most and it got annoying, and same I used to love it, now I see the hate and understand it
Unfortunately, Purple Lamp Studios decided to use the voice files from the original game and port it to Rehydrated, most likely due to the fact that the voices already had very great quality.
This game got Clancy Brown as Mr. Krabs, something that Battle for Bikini Bottom couldnt, yet they recast the narrator despite already having Tom Kenny, who is both SpongeBob and the narrator, on the game?
Pretty sure Clancy Brown got a bit sour about voice acting in games after not getting paid enough for the Crash games. Safe to assume that unless he was paid much more, he wouldn't voice act.
a lot of people hate this game, but i don't think it was that bad (apart from the controls being frustrating at times). it has a nice, calm atmosphere to it, used to play it all the time as a kid.
One of the first games I ever played when I was 4. I loved every second of it, and for the age of 4 I got pretty far. I got to Chum World but couldn’t figure out how to get passed a certain section. I did finish Battle for Bikini Bottom though when I was 5 or 6. First ever game I finished. This game and BFBB are huge chunks of my childhood. Never forget.

Pretty sure the crash only happens on some slim ps2 consoles due to the blue discs spinning faster than regular DVD's, so it kept failing to load. I've never experienced this glitch on a fat ps2
This is the very first game where as a child.... I felt nothing playing it I dont hate it.....im not bored of it...at all, i replayed it too many times Its just.... Battle for bikini bottom made me feel excited and happy The movie gave me that movie action danger feeling (i mean except for the patty driving part) Creature from the krusty krab felt dreamy....weird....like a fever dream This one is just..........im playing... The music felt like background noises...the models look unconvincing.....the story is weirdly unrewarding........but maybe thats because i didnt really know english at the time As a kid. I was a scaredy cat.....so no way did i ever touch games like slenderman and etc. This game wasnt horror, and its spongebob, i love spongebob, of course i wanted to play it! I had fun........and yet i still remember that this is THE FIRST GAME to have made me to constantly watch my back Everything felt silence I never dared to touch the game without at least my mom is in my vicinity
Idk, i think this game is just to complicated for a kid. I remember stuck in some situation where i have to steal something from Squidward (i don't remember what it is), turns out i have to press R1/R2 so i can do the sneaky walk so Squidward can't hear me
@@ilhamnurhadi26 yeah, that also made it feel unrewarding to me....i get confused too half of the times..... Platforming is also hard for me, since i cant see Spongebobs shadow that well
Creature from the Krusty Krab was a game that I was too scared to touch because I was too scared of the Alaskan Bull Worm level. The whole game gave me nightmares and I never enjoyed how weird it made me feel. Whereas Battle for Bikini Bottom was the best experience I’ve ever had because it reached the peak level of authenticity; made you feel as if you were actually playing an episode of the show rather than something that came from the nightmare of one of the devs.
Tbh, the whole "Creature from the Krusty Krab being like a dream" stuff, that's basically the idea, since all the game practically is SpongeBob, Patrick, and Plankton dreaming
@@rook4785 Hey! Yeah i think you can because there are still other random tasks like collecting a certain number of dabloons. But i dont think there are any rewards
This game needs more praise. Some people don't really like the game. I get the horrible animations in cutscense, but I mean the game over all plays really good. The voice acting is great. This game deserves a lot more.
Obviously you've never played it. The original version would always crash, the controls were awful, the animations and collectibles counter looked like they were from flash games. This game was just bad, that's why this didn't get remade and battle for bikini bottom did
I personally think this game still holds up. It's a pretty solid 3D platformer collect- a -thon. Like Battle of Bikini Bottom, but on a slightly bigger scale. The only real issue there is that the music constantly repeat's after every little thing.
This game will have a place in my heart mostly because of the story behind it’s development. It’s easy to look at this compared to other SpongeBob video games and laugh (Even with that I think it’s a solid and fun experience) but the people at Big Sky had such big heart and especially love for the IP against such rough conditions.
I truly loved this game as a kid lmao. So sad to see everyone hate it, even in a nostalgic sense. The game constantly crashing was part of the fun lol. We’re you even a 90’s kid if you didn’t worry about losing your save files?
I'd pay plenty if we could see the four big Spongebob platformers all get remastered and released as a set. Battle for Bikini Bottom, Revenge of the Flying Dutchman, The Movie (though an overhaul would be recommended for that one) and Creature From The Krusty Krab? Yes please!
I don’t know about y’all, but something about the narrator is just kinda eerie to me. Like- he’s just there? It’s gives off the vibes that it’s all in spongebob’s head and he’s just constantly talking to himself and hearing voices 😭 This game feels cursed in general like it’s some sort of creepypasta
If this game ever gets remade, I hope it'll be designed in a way where many people will appreciate it a lot more (and I really mean, tons of more appreciation since Revenge of the Flying Dutchman did receive a lot of spreaded worldwide hate)
I remember this game very well. It brings back so many memories. The Nostalgia. I got this game back in 2002 for Christmas. I don't have this game any more. I haven't played it in many years. This was the first game I played on the PS2.
The last movement of the eyes is probably where the animation ends, and older games like this often warped the skeleton of the model back to the starting position. So the eyes switching balls most likely is due to the game not being able to move those eye bones on the model in one shift.
You know Spongebob does more than just gurgle in his bathroom, right? XD He also flushes and goes "Ah...", whistled in the shower, makes weird noises, and belches. 🤣 Also, when he just stands there in the Mermaid Man costume, he just giggles like crazy and sometimes says "By the power of Neptune...!" XD
I'd like to believe that"should I get a hammer" should be a meme cause the the robots in BFBB in jelly fish field are like some sort of reference but actual hams
My mom had played this as a kid. My dad recently set up his old ps2 for me and my mom grabbed her copy... I instantly fell in love and i could instantly see the nostalgia in my mom’s face
OMG this is it! My parents bought me some SpongeBob games before they divorced and the last one I played was SpongeBob Squarepants The Movie. This one in particular frightened me a bit because SpongeBob was riding on top of this Giant JellyFish 😂
Woah I remember playing this on my ps2 when I was young. This brings back so many memories. I spent so much time on this game. I would play the jellyfish fields level so much because I loved that place. I never finished the game though. I couldn’t get past the circus level 😕 The music is iconic and I praise the original story!
@@mistressmidnight8390 *breaks through fence* *picks up Wanted poster* "Hey this maniac isnt half bad looking. Wait a minute Patrick...I'M the maniac!"
When I was a kid, I wasted an entire Saturday waiting for Plankton at 2:14:13 because it says "I'll be back later" - Plankton. I did not know that meant that he would be back after the level was finished. After I waited for 2 hours, I left my gamecube on and came back the next day.... he still wasn't there.
Yes and I thought this one was bbfb Bc this was the one I loved the most when I was little and I was so confused when I got rehydrated Bc i was missing the Krabby patty delivery
This game is so uncanny, the floaty animation, the non existent pacing of dialogue, spongebob's eye movements, the music cutting when any dialogue is spoken and the completely random Narrator that gives you tutorials that doesn't sound like any one in the show (I can only imagine he's trying to emulate the time card guy by the accent but I'm not sure)
The fact that the music stops playing whenever characters speak only adds to the creepiness of the game. No wonder this game gave me nightmares as a little kid.

Mad Prince record what part of the video
I imagine with how often the word "booty" was tossed around, the guys recording voice clips for the game were laughing a bit.
Especially Tom Kenny.

This was the complete first game I ever had on Ps2 I miss playing that game
2:50:38 This part used to terrify me as a kid! But the music doesn't fit at all 😂
Aidan Wray hey bro can play the game when you fishen the game like freeroam?
@@rook4785 Hey! Yeah i think you can because there are still other random tasks like collecting a certain number of dabloons. But i dont think there are any rewards
Aidan Wray ok Thanks😊👍
I swear SpongeBob could be summoning demons in this game and that same music would play
@@kirbyleggington7205 lmao thats so true 😂😂
i dont know why I watched this whole stream lol but i really enjoyed it

This game needs more praise. Some people don't really like the game. I get the horrible animations in cutscense, but I mean the game over all plays really good. The voice acting is great. This game deserves a lot more.
Obviously you've never played it. The original version would always crash, the controls were awful, the animations and collectibles counter looked like they were from flash games. This game was just bad, that's why this didn't get remade and battle for bikini bottom did
They got Mr. Krab's voice actor for this game though, which is nice
The crashes were on the PS2 not the GameCube
I personally think this game still holds up. It's a pretty solid 3D platformer collect- a -thon. Like Battle of Bikini Bottom, but on a slightly bigger scale. The only real issue there is that the music constantly repeat's after every little thing.
Isn't that the case for every classic SpongeBob game?
This game will have a place in my heart mostly because of the story behind it’s development. It’s easy to look at this compared to other SpongeBob video games and laugh (Even with that I think it’s a solid and fun experience) but the people at Big Sky had such big heart and especially love for the IP against such rough conditions.
This may sound weird, but I think this game, along with the spongebob movie game, deserves a remaster/remake.
That doesn’t sound weird.
Man I’d love a remaster of this!
Same 😊
This and Twinsanity, Both Conplete with almost all missing content restored and Buetifully remade
The more and more they say booty, the more and more it sounds like their not talking about money
1:26:09
I like how this isn't like a boss or a buffed version of the enemy, no
You hit him once and he dies
Peak gaming
It's hard to believe that battle for bikini Bottom came after this. Also why does the flying Dutchman have the best model in the entire game.
Flying Dutchman literally tries to murder Spongebob with a ship. *pleasant music begins to play
I remember intentionally letting Squidward win the race to the Krusty Krab just to see what would happen.
Well, what happened?
Idk why people are calling this game trash other than the failed ps2 port, I really like the open world gameplay
It's boring compared to battle for bikini bottom
@@ryry8533 thats exactly why it gets hate is because people always compare all the SpongeBob gakes to battle for bikini bottom
@@beiberisgay4240 cuz it's the only good one.
@@ryry8533 have you ever played the other spongbob games like I mean all of them??
@@beiberisgay4240 I've seen all them they look boring af.
You ever just think about how this game was released within weeks of Ratchet and Clank?
This had to have been in development before.
The few logs that exist in the uncompiled source code on tcrf to me at least suggest it
Zach7551 it’s just really funny to me. Like ik a spongebob game won’t have that level of graphics but this game just looks so awkward
I loved this game so much. Played it over and over many times. I remember always wearing the Mermaid Man costume because it was so awesome!!
I truly loved this game as a kid lmao. So sad to see everyone hate it, even in a nostalgic sense. The game constantly crashing was part of the fun lol. We’re you even a 90’s kid if you didn’t worry about losing your save files?
Seriously lol gamer kids today are sooooo spoiled
I love the way the music loops every time SpongeBob says something.
this game needs to get rehydrated too
Joshua Amador-Coppin lol
thadam true
I'd pay plenty if we could see the four big Spongebob platformers all get remastered and released as a set.
Battle for Bikini Bottom, Revenge of the Flying Dutchman, The Movie (though an overhaul would be recommended for that one) and Creature From The Krusty Krab?
Yes please!
@Rocco
I'd fight ya on that one. Good game, but it's got no real variety and no Sandy!
The movie videogame needs to be rehydrated before this
I don’t know about y’all, but something about the narrator is just kinda eerie to me. Like- he’s just there? It’s gives off the vibes that it’s all in spongebob’s head and he’s just constantly talking to himself and hearing voices 😭 This game feels cursed in general like it’s some sort of creepypasta
If this game ever gets remade, I hope it'll be designed in a way where many people will appreciate it a lot more (and I really mean, tons of more appreciation since Revenge of the Flying Dutchman did receive a lot of spreaded worldwide hate)
@@koolaidinpepsi ok.
Probably because the game was way too hard
@@BabyJaguar220 yeah
@@BabyJaguar220 Skill issue
Get Good
I don't think it's bad, just bizarre
I remember this game very well. It brings back so many memories. The Nostalgia. I got this game back in 2002 for Christmas. I don't have this game any more. I haven't played it in many years. This was the first game I played on the PS2.
What is this music!- WHAT IS THAT NARRATOR VOICE!!!!!
1:07:15 why is sponegbobs eyes switching balls
It’s supposed to be funny, but I can see that annoying other people
The last movement of the eyes is probably where the animation ends, and older games like this often warped the skeleton of the model back to the starting position. So the eyes switching balls most likely is due to the game not being able to move those eye bones on the model in one shift.
wheres his helmet
Ball 😏
They should remake this on the BFBB engine.
Aaaand Remake it the way it was before it got rushed
I never played Battle for Bikini Bottom as a kid. But this was the only spongebob game I had.
Id love a remaster of this one!
You know Spongebob does more than just gurgle in his bathroom, right? XD He also flushes and goes "Ah...", whistled in the shower, makes weird noises, and belches. 🤣 Also, when he just stands there in the Mermaid Man costume, he just giggles like crazy and sometimes says "By the power of Neptune...!" XD
THE NOSTALGIA, MY CHILDHOOD 🥺 they don’t make games like this anymore.
Ngl the high rise apartments and chum world were my favorite levels when I was playing this on the Gamecube
Jellyfish fields and Goo Lagoon were alright
Same. I loveddddd downtown
brought back so many childhood memories
Why does this game have so much hate? It looks fun
The PS2 version of this game is broken.
It has a glitch that makes the game freeze when loading.
UndeadFrankie I have a GameCube, would it work?
@@weasel4674 It should be fine, the problem I was talking about mostly happens on PS2
UndeadFrankie okay thanks
it aged horribly
Sponge bob used a NET to slow fall... how does that... I mean... idk
Well, he is underwater.
It caught air, wind resistance making him fall slower (like a parachute). It doesn't make a lot of sense but, y'know, it's SpongeBob.
Hey Cocksucker maybe don’t watch the video then
OMFG THE NOSTALGIA HOLY SH*T
I saw the 4K thing and as a man of culture I clicked
3:08:40 "He just can't get enough booty!"
Feels bro
Will you let me use your cannon if i bring you some fresh booty?
Childhood memories... Also, how did this game get the REAL Mr.Krabs but Battle for Bikini Bottom didn't?
He didn't get paid
I'd like to believe that"should I get a hammer" should be a meme cause the the robots in BFBB in jelly fish field are like some sort of reference but actual hams
Damn, whoever recorded this, Is a coin Collecting Master
It was a long time ago, but if I remember correctly there is a different cutscene if you let squidward beat you to the krusty crab.
Yeah, there was. I don't remember what Squidward said, but Spongebob was, like, begging to not be fired or something?
I never got past the jelly fish field as a kid.. thank you for helping me see what happens neck
This is game brings back childhood memories lol.
Why does frenchie sound creepy? He's voiced by Tom kenny, the one who voiced spongebob
There's no way it's Kenny in this game
This game out of all the other sponge bob games I’ve ever played, this is an absolute gem
*GREAT BARRIER REEF*
Me: jumps back in surprise "GREAT BARRIER REEF!"
My mom had played this as a kid. My dad recently set up his old ps2 for me and my mom grabbed her copy... I instantly fell in love and i could instantly see the nostalgia in my mom’s face
Thats awesome. I played this when I was a kid
In case you're reading, please tell your mom about Battle for Bikini Bottom. She'll fall in love with that game too.
I remember how stuck I got on the tree platforming section and it always frustrated me so bad 😂
I wonder what Stephen thought of this game.
@@londonjackson8986
Why wouldn't he have liked it?
This alongside with BFBB,Movie game, and lights camera pants are the main good ones
He Hated This and Nickelodeon Party Blast (Another 2002 Game SpongeBob Appeared in)
No source.
OMG this is it! My parents bought me some SpongeBob games before they divorced and the last one I played was SpongeBob Squarepants The Movie. This one in particular frightened me a bit because SpongeBob was riding on top of this Giant JellyFish 😂
Welcome back memories
I had this for the GameCube. Nostalgia Overload
Woah I remember playing this on my ps2 when I was young. This brings back so many memories. I spent so much time on this game. I would play the jellyfish fields level so much because I loved that place. I never finished the game though. I couldn’t get past the circus level 😕 The music is iconic and I praise the original story!
I'm I the only one saying
He's just standing there menacingly get out of there spongebob!

12:17 Gary: (thinking) Only the reef blower can spin this wheel.
When I was a kid, I wasted an entire Saturday waiting for Plankton at 2:14:13 because it says "I'll be back later" - Plankton. I did not know that meant that he would be back after the level was finished. After I waited for 2 hours, I left my gamecube on and came back the next day.... he still wasn't there.
Hate that this game gets as much hate as it does. I loved it and still do!!
Probably one of the most underrated games I've ever played
agreed
This game was always very creepy and weird but amazing at the same time
Graphics really aren't that bad for a 2002 game, reminds me of Rayman Hoodlum Havoc
London Jackson You're smoking something different if you think a PS1 could run this. Maybe an early PS2 game (which is what it was for me)
London Jackson never used the dreamcast so I couldn't say but it was a decent game
The graphics are absolutely shit when you compare it to literally everything else that was on the console at the time.
15:37 nobody:
spongebob after getting all letter tiles: *spins at high speed*
This dude voicing the narrator sounds like he's doing ASMR with his mouth *directly* on the mic, it's so weirdly bassy and sensual.
Thank god I got the GBA version, this looks like an Alpha version of Battle for Bikini Bottom
Yes and I thought this one was bbfb Bc this was the one I loved the most when I was little and I was so confused when I got rehydrated Bc i was missing the Krabby patty delivery
This game is so uncanny, the floaty animation, the non existent pacing of dialogue, spongebob's eye movements, the music cutting when any dialogue is spoken and the completely random Narrator that gives you tutorials that doesn't sound like any one in the show (I can only imagine he's trying to emulate the time card guy by the accent but I'm not sure)
10:00 Intro 20:16 Clancy Brown 🦀 30:00 and 40:00 Downtown 50:02 Plankton scene 1:00:00 Treedome 1:10:00 Almost done 1:20:00 Jellyfish Fields
9:00 Intro 18:24 🦑 scene 27:00 and 36:10 Downtown 45:00 54:00 1:03:00
The fact that the music stops playing whenever characters speak only adds to the creepiness of the game.
No wonder this game gave me nightmares as a little kid.
Weird as hell if you ask me.
