What ive managed to gather, rehydrated took about only 10 months of development and Nick only gave them that time since the new spongebob movie was coming out this year but since the movie was pushed back due to covid, Nick told them to still release it on the same date and gave them no time to push the game back plus Nick only gave purple lamp a bunget for this remake so this was a budget remake and Nick told them to do spongebob with the bright shade of yellow to co inside with the movie and told them to reuse the music and the voice lines and told them that they connot use brand new voice lines plus since their was no voice lines in the original for the spongebob ancor arms and robot sqidward boss fight, they couldn't bring them into the single player and decided to do a multiplayer mode so that way the stuff that was suppost to be in the original got to see the spotlight after so long, Nick basically screwed over purple lamp studios hard and i feel bad for purple lamp, i honestly enjoyed rehydrated and im honestly shocked of how purple lamp managed to make a functional game on time since like i sayed that they only had 10 months of development and nick basically screwing them over
Too matter makes worse is that Nickelodeon doesn't care about their games not ever get a chance to some developent cycle for 1 or 2 years. Nickelodeon make rushed games for make easy and extremely boring and repetivive IF not worst Nick Games all of them years,please play the other classic or violence games or you are fan of show or remakes if you enjoy the game.
People keep blaming this game's development on the Coronavirus and the third movie's release date being delayed in most countries except for Canada and Czech Republic.
@@andykishore i know even coronavirus exist, Rehydrated should be delayed to 2021 instead this game needs 2-years in developement cycle especially Purple Lamp Studios should make their best for this great game.
Season 4 is just as good as seasons 1-3 and season 5 is decent seasons 9-11 are also decent a bit overrated imo but still has so really good moments seasons 12 and 13 aren’t very good tho however I don’t get why people say call everything after the first movie trash
Clancy Brown is a god damn legend. I also am dumbfounded that they couldn't get Clancy Brown to voice Mr.Krabs in the remake. It wouldn't have been that difficult to get him on board. But because of the COVID-19 pandemic, maybe they didn't want to risk it.
Actually, Rehydrated's soundtrack is slightly remixed, I don't blame you for not noticing it's very subtle and it's mostly higher quality instruments with slightly different compositions at points. I feel it's the most obvious with Goo Lagoon's track
While visually I do like the art style of rehydrated, I kind of wish some of the character models (specifically SpongeBob) were based off of the original games designs rather than the modern seasons
Purple Lamp Studios noted that the original game was based on SpongeBob's season 2 design for his 3D model. In this remake game, SpongeBob's 3D model is based on his season 12 design. The developers have stated that the 3D model change was due to how SpongeBob's shape and color have changed slightly between season 2 and 10 seasons later in season 12.
i dont really see why they would base the models of an old version of the show different eras it makes perfect sense to have a new game base the models off the newer versions of the show instead of the older version that would seem outdated but thats just my take
0:10 Season 9B is my second favorite of the whole show... 5:36 I heard some people say that, besides the budget, there was some legal problems that said if they were to rerecord a character, they would have to rerecord EVERYONE by law, so just having Mr. Krabs be rerecorded was impossible. 13:14 The reason the boss fights are faster is because they took advice from speedrunners who complained they didn't like the slower fights from the original, one of them is even named in the credits. And on a final note apparently the game was made in literally less then a year as they lost a few months due to COVID. And in addition to reusing voice clips, they also ripped and reused the assets of the PS2 version, meaning most of the base level geometry is identical to the original but with better textures.

Totally agree with you in the beginning What’s more cringy is that fans can’t take criticism that the show’s now complete shit Great review nonetheless
Agreed, seasons 1-3 and the first movie were so good, but the seasons and movies after that are cringy as hell and just uncomfortable to watch and sometimes even boring. Hell some of them are just reused plots of the old episodes like the imagination paper and box.
While I do believe there has been a high point in 9B onward, the fact you don't really see discussions or big topics about it anymore on reviews just showcases how its become a Simpson's case where its pretty much ran its course. (Like name a review who has reviewed or still reviews the show? Even Enter just mostly brings it up in passing and PieguyRulez stopped his every episode review series, Cosmodore was outed as a predator, not to mention the occasional rehashed episode) The first 3 seasons were notable for a reason, despite Season 4 and parts of 5 having some charm (though 5 started to introduce issues into the show) That being said this is the best licsened game by far and a solid game all around and represents the prime of Spongebob well.
@@superhedgehog6447 Over the summer of 2020, Cosmodore got exposed for being a pedophile. People have made various videos about Cosmodore's being a child groomer.
Another thing they did to make the Final Boss way easier is that once you stun Robot Plankton, he stays deactivated. My sister was disappointed cuz she was looking for round 2 of the challenging final boss she remembered.
I actually enjoy that because in the original game, it drove me nuts when the Robot Plankton wouldn't stay deactivated, especially when trying to deal with all kinds of other crap going on at the same time like avoiding the karate chops.
You talk about the inversted cruise bubble controls alot do you know that you can change the controls in the settings? there is an option in gameplay settings that inverts the controls if you mess with it you can make the cruise bubble controls not be garbage
Probably the reason why Spongebob hasn't ended is because Nick is using the cartoon as their money cow (A.K.A. Milking it), which it explains why there was 24/7 of Spongebob in the past years... and how many shows were cancelled because Nick thought those cartoons weren't successful as Spongebob (like El Tigre, for example)...
The problem of Nickelodeon themselves is because they want only a money as that really dont care about 90's classic cartoons and didn't reboot or a spin-off series for many years,that always why they ruining Spongebob Squarepants so much and i was never see ever again for 2 years but i actually THQNordic may bring Spongebob games or a brand new Spongebob for the future.
The kelp slide was the part where I think it was the downside of this game to me. In the original, there's many openings that you take shortcuts to make your life easier, but Rehydrated has none of that. Its stressful, its stupid, and I wish the kelp walls were not an addition.
Nickelodeon: Children? We don't care about the children! We just care about their parents' money! The fact that they have to play straight-up remakes of older games made with little to no changes involved is no skin off our backs!
15:35 You spend so long talking about the game's soundtrack not being remixed or remastered when you are completely wrong on that. Although, the differences are more noticeable if you only listen to the music by itself and without any voices or sound effects.
Great video Coop. It’s kinda sad that the Sponge bob bfbb remake wasn’t that different from the original but it still was a masterpiece like the original.
You seriously complained about the checkpoints during the second half of the final boss? REALLY?!? Honestly I'm glad they added checkpoints because I hated doing The second half all over again.
@I like games Like being attacked by multiple enemies at the same time wasn't challenging enough?!? Honestly no checkpoints during the second phase is giving me flashbacks to crash twinssanity's final boss
With the first part i disagree. I really like season 4 of spongebob. Season 5 is ehhhhh. Season 6-9 are shit. And seasons 10-12 are shitty watered down versions of ren and stimpy
This sounds awfully like the GameSpot review of SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom - Rehydrated that unfairly criticized the video game as be boring and dwelling too much on minor stuff like the Mermaliar ball room challenge which technically isn't required to beat the game under 100%. Heck, the player only needs 75 spatulas to unlock the final boss.
Do you guys still prefer the original BFBB or Rehydrated?
This channel is disgustingly underrated
I couldn't agree more.
@Meg Fanton no
Band Geeks is the best Episode^^^

I think the controls for the cruise bubble were inverted to have that sort of like an airplane control

Season 4 is mixed for me. There's a couple episodes in there that I would say still feel "classic".
@@waddafugg3072 yeah 4 was a hit or miss and 5 onward was just bad.
I personally really enjoy Seasons 9-12, but that's my opinion.
@@Skylancer727 9-12 just keeps getting forgotten eh?
7:00 There is an option in the options menu for that
I love this video you do good at this don't stop making reviews
Loved the video! Just the answers I was looking for as well. Subbed!
The remake was the first time I played Battle For Bikini Bottom so I don’t mind that it was extremely similar to the original
Always good to see your content
I ordered an Xbox One on ebay, maybe I should get rehydrated and Crash Bandicoot 4 for it, and maybe destroy all humans
Good choices.

With them not bringing in Clancy Brown to voice Mr Krabs, I think it may have something to do with licensing
I like the memes in the rehydrated lol
it's been three years sense OG SSBFBB review jeez

No dislikes good job Coop.
Is the campaign of Spongebob battle for bikini bottom rehydrated couch coop?
No, sadly.
Can I play the story with a friend? I dont find any option

Nice review Coop 👍
Nice spongebob reviews.
Wish you could do the nicktoons unite series games.
I feel like this is an underwhelming remake it doesn’t look like it improves on things and just keeps them.
Dude the Crash Remake didnt change anything and added more bullshit and nobody complained
@@AJotasticGamer
You don’t like those remakes?
I hope they remake the movie game too...
They need the rights to it first
I don’t think you’ll reply, but why is the Xbox version better than the ps2?

With the first part i disagree. I really like season 4 of spongebob. Season 5 is ehhhhh. Season 6-9 are shit. And seasons 10-12 are shitty watered down versions of ren and stimpy
Imma stop you right there bud season 5-9A are trash. 9B-12 is the stuff the brought Spongebob back on the map so to speak.
Sup coop nice review it’s cool
I skipped this game because I heard the switch version was kinda bad. Is the gamecube version any good?
The GameCube version is fine, it's certainly better than the PS2 version.
@Pogomire Agreed, if your going off of loading screen speeds it would go Xbox > GameCube > PS2.
Switch verison is good I dont know much about the others
Now I'm SpongeBob JunglePants and Squidward still is bad at clarinet!
It looks boring and slow to me
No Its fun and awesome to me.
