Gameplay Differences # General #
Pressing every shoulder button at once will activate a free camera. SpongeBob will stay completely still and pause his animations. If every shoulder button is pressed again, he will teleport to the exact position of the camera.
Costume tents function differently. Each level has costume tents dedicated to one costume each, unlike in the final game where you can choose any costume you have unlocked.
It's very easy to get stuck inside these tents, as SpongeBob stays inside upon changing, causing a changing loop.
As in the GameCube version of the final game, if the music is interrupted it will restart from the beginning.
SpongeBob #
Using the Reef Blower is considered an attack and will damage enemies. The attack button can be repeatedly pressed to defeat an enemy that takes multiple hits within a second.
SpongeBob descends much slower when using his slam attack.
Characters #
Larry the Lobster is considered an enemy in the test level. He chases SpongeBob, hits him, and then performs a lengthy flexing animation.
He is a character in one of the crate destroying minigames in the final release, but he cannot damage you.
Mr. Krabs follows SpongeBob around in the Krusty Krab.
General Differences # Loading Screen #
The game uses a static loading screen, which is still present in the final GameCube version as SCREENS.DGC .
There is no title screen. After the first loading screen, it boots you to Bikini Bottom in front of SpongeBob's house.
The pause menu appears more primitive, and within the game options menu is a world select that warps you to any level in the game.
Game Status Game Options Select World Level Differences # General #
Several invisible teleports have giant arrows, which are completely absent from the final.
Bikini Bottom # Neighborhood #
The lighting isn't as dark.
The level geometry is different, including the houses and rocks.
Squidward's backyard garden has no scarecrow.
Vehicles can be seen driving around on the roads.
Squidward stands in front of his house, while Patrick is not seen running in circles.
A strange floating life preserver with a hook is next to the cliff across from the houses.
Latching onto it with the Jellyfishing costume, it will lift you onto the left side of the cliff.
Sandy can be found in the back in front of the cave. The cave does not lead anywhere, while in the final game it eventually takes you to a karate match with Sandy.
SpongeBob's House #
The living room overall appears much larger.
A large rug was added in the center.
There's a texture error on the wall.
The window on the door to SpongeBob's room was removed.
SpongeBob's house has a backyard.
Restaurant District #
The Chum Bucket is called the Mega Chum Bucket.
Strangely, the texture's physical appearance was unchanged, causing the final game's Chum Bucket to appear oddly tall with a large blank space above its logo.
The bus stop bench texture is different.
The level geometry is completely different in this area, with a tunnel for vehicles to drive through that was later removed.
Only one car is parked in front of the Krusty Krab.
There is a car that drives around while carrying one of the letter tiles.
Krusty Krab #
Mr. Krabs and Squidward are present, the former of whom follows you around.
There is no eel thug.
The props in the storage area are different.
You enter the kitchen through the order window, as opposed to the door.
Downtown Bikini Bottom # Business District #
The street lights use real-time lights instead of a texture like the final game. This (along with the brighter building textures) results in the area appearing much brighter.
There are various boats driving around.
Construction Site #
Patrick is not wearing his Barnacle Boy costume.
Tree Dome # Ground #
The clothesline has three of Sandy's spacesuits, a striped shirt, and socks. In the final game, it's just one suit and some sheets.
Chum World # Big Top #
The Big Top received a major texture overhaul.
The doubloons on the starting platform were removed.
Jellyfish Fields # Corral #
The entrance has a bus that drives towards SpongeBob from behind, stops, then flies away. This loops infinitely.
There are no children at the playground, nor any characters populating the entire level.
The swing set uses a different texture.
There is a golden SpongeBob pickup in the cliff area. When collected, it displays the HUD but does not visibly increment any counters or health.
Clam Jumping #
There is another golden SpongeBob pickup on top of the diving board.
Dutchman's Graveyard # Ship Graveyard #
A bus is seen at the entrance.
Tile Puzzles #
The lighting is much darker.
The tiles use placeholder number textures.
The camera isn't static and follows SpongeBob around, albeit at a fixed angle.
In the Bikini Bottom tile puzzle, a phone object not present in the final game can be seen in the foreground.
Animation Differences # SpongeBob #
SpongeBob has an extra idle animation of him tying his shoes.
Test Level # Accessible in the level select menu is a test level. The level in its entirety is leftover in Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius
SPONGE.DPC # Included in DATA alongside SPONGE.DPS is a file named SPONGE.DPC. The name suggests this would have been the equivalent of SPONGE.DPS used for a hypothetical PC version of the game; and indeed, its contents confirm this. It contains audio and textures of formats supported on PC. Unfortunately, they seem to have corrupted red and green color channels, resulting in slight color inaccuracies.
One of these files is the texture for SpongeBob himself: the pants are green and the eye color is pink. Very peculiar. Shown below is the texture swapped into the retail GameCube version:
I'm not SpongeBob. I'm my ORIGINAL character, BlongeBob.
Audio Differences # Music #
Main Theme
Audio Audio An earlier mix that lacks the lap steel guitar and 1:30-2:13 segment.
Fishing Gear
Audio Audio Uses the track Hello Blues from the show.
Reef Blower
Audio Audio Uses the track Cream Pie from the show.
Karate Costume
Audio Audio Uses the track You're Nice from the show.
The other two costumes, Treasure Hunter and Mermaid Man, use the main theme and You're Nice respectively.
Unused Audio # Test Level #
Audio Now it's time to bring it around town! Bring it around town!
Low-quality soundbyte from Season 1's Bubblestand .
Audio Oops! I guess I ripped my pants again!
Low-quality soundbyte from Season 1's Ripped Pants .
