Well, that explains why Robot Spongebob got those inflatable muscles after the first phase of the fight. I remember seeing commercials for this game as a kid and it even showed a clip from this part of the boss. Even when the game was released, commercials were still showing this part and I was always wondering what I was doing wrong to not unlock that part of the boss lol
_None_ of the dummied-out stuff made it into the main game that they said they were gonna reimplement. In hindsight, we probably should’ve seen this coming the moment it came out that they were recycling the original audio. Still, insert the “so that was a fucking lie” meme here.
A good way to tell whether a finished game is good is if it had cut content. That way, you'll know the developers were working their asses off on the game so much they couldn't fit all their ideas into it. BFBB is an amazing game in general, on top of being the best SpongeBob game ever developed. Big props to Heavy Iron Studios. :D
Two theories why the Musclebob boss was cut: 1. They started working on a Musclebob boss battle, but later on felt that Spongebob's karate gear was more recognizable and iconic, so they stopped work on Musclebob to create a boss battle they felt would be more representative of Spongebob. 2. Musclebob looks downright terrifying at times, especially when his arms are thin. The developers may have been afraid that Musclebob would've given kids nightmares, or they received unanimous negative feedback for this boss battle when they did focus group testing, and went back to the drawing board accordingly.
Actually, I think this boss was supposed to appear after Spongebob destroyed the fuses Inside the robot's brain... Witch would explain why the Robot looks dizzy here.Maybe they just cut it out because the simply didn't have enough time to finish it...Or maybe because a 3rd phase would have been too long after the climax Inside the Robot...Who knows...
I love how the unused content and glitches are, to this day, still being explored. If only this game had a larger community, we'd have every mysterious unused thing working amazingly!
Meanwhile in June 21 2020 2 Days before the rehydrated version, We realize that this unused boss is just an island in multiplayer mode. Really Disappointing :(
It's not the unused boss who is there, it's the spongebot when he gets muscles before entering inside him, or else he would be with the underwear he uses here.
Seriously like who asked for a multiplayer mode? It looks straight outta plankton's robotic revenge or heropants 🤦, i understand that they wanted to keep faithful to the original but they could've add a level select option or bonus levels option and put all the unused stages and bosses there
I wonder how this form would ever work? I mean, it's A LOT smaller than his first form, and the rocket legs are completely gone along with the nine energy generators....does he magically shrink and change its outfit via henshin-style or something? And god damn, as if I didn't have enough nightmares about these damn robots when I was a kid....these animations I admit are very freaky and intimidating...
With the remake on the way, along with including cut content, I wonder if this will be included as well? It could happen before the final boss fight as this one could be a prototype for Robot SpongeBob.
If that’s the case, I hope they finally include Robot Squidward as a boss and Squidward as a playable character. I remember the Gameboy Edition, Robot Squidward was my favorite boss fight.
If THQ possibly makes a HD Remastered version of BFBB they have to include Robo-Spongebob Musclepants boss battle and probably other Beta that got Cut from the Game
@@tylerfindlay3774 Yep. For a while, I thought the announcement was fake! A few searches later, and I am pleasantly surprised to see this be an actual thing!

This fight was way to easy, unless they made it more complex and made him have more unique things about him, this would have made the fight way more boring.
As much as I love seeing this i have to say that there is 1 beta unfinished level that i would love to see 100 percent done. And that is the... unused Patrick's dream level
+Chris Actually The WAS a Squidbot boss fight in the GBA version, However, as far as the concept in the theatre, the Squidwardbot Fight of that stature was eventually integrated into the the console version of Truth or Square.
I could sorta see the Musclebob boss working as more of a "third phase" than a second phase boss as everyone seems to speculate. Like after it knocks SpongeBob and Robo-Plankton out of it's head, the thing goes goes crazy, loses its pants(cause why not), and your made to use all the playable characters one last time to take him out; using each one's respective range attack to deflate his arms then hoping on the larger pieces of debris to go over his deflated arms and damage it from behind somehow- a back button maybe?
My theory for this fight: after the first phase of the SpongeBot fight Patrick would have to join in as SpongeBot takes another form. The player would automatically turn into Patrick and would be transported to the Area where this leftover fight takes place. here the player would have to avoid SpongeBot‘s arms and then throw some of the leftover rubble pieces at their weak spot. then As shown in this video that arm that the opponent threw the Rubble at Would deflate then SpongeBot would use his stomp ability. The player would either have to jump over it or get far away from the robot in order to avoid the move. Patrick would then have to deflate the other arm in order to progress. After doing so this is as far as this video gets us to show what this Bossfight was able to do. my theory on what would happen next is that Patrick would have to avoid the other moves then throw a piece of rubble at SpongeBot’s face. Possibly shattering one of his eyes this may be the end of the fight from my theory and the broken eye might have been the way SpongeBob was originally going to get into the robots head. as seen in this video the stomp attack did not do any damage. this is possibly because of the fact that this boss was cut and the developers were never able to implement damage into the stomp move. there were also no noises from when one of the arms were deflated. this Bossfight must’ve been cut before new noises were made into the game for this fight. another thing is when the player in the video hit SpongeBot’s face with the pieces of rubble nothing actually happened. this may have been because no damage or animations were made when SpongeBot’s face was supposed to be hit. or maybe my theory is incorrect and SpongeBot’s face was never meant to be hit. The reason I think that this fight would take place before SpongeBob goes inside the robots head is because in the actual finished game we see the robot arms inflate as shown in this video before SpongeBob enters the head. After the muscle fight SpongeBob would then be forced to turn back to normal either commanded by the robot plankton or by himself this is when SpongeBob would go into the robots head and thus the final phase would commence. remember this is only my theory there are many things that are most likely wrong. this is just how I think this fight would have gone down if this was actually put into the final game.
Holy plot twist! Mass hysteria, cats and dogs living together... the level works!! It's pretty amazing how you got this to work. Your hard work is appreciated! I'll try to accommodate the TCRF article to these relevations, but it's late so it might not all be done tonight. Anyway, you're amazing for getting this to work. Great job!
I can see why this was scrapped. Firstly, the developers quickly ran out of ideas after both the hands are destroyed, as the boss has no AI changes after they are destroyed. Next, many of the attacks seem either too easy or way too difficult to avoid. For example, the hit for not destroying one of the arms fast enough takes so long to trigger it renders it almost pointless. The Stomp, however, seems unavoidable as it is right now. These are just some of my theories on why the boss was scrapped.
I think it's that it was started way to late in development. This build of the boss was from August of 2003, and you can see that it isn't even close to being final.
R.I.P. THQ You made enormously great games that did my childhood. R.I.P. old Spongebob, the modern Spongebob just sucks.. atleast i got memories of a great time.
I THINK I HAVE FUDGE IN MY PANTS!!! This is incredible. If you could make this work along with the sundae and a few other things. You could make a director's cut. Your only problem is getting the squidward boss. I mean the one from the movie theater and I here it was in the beta. If you can get that, you're awesome! At least more than you already are for this!
Adventure Master 18 Thanks. Unfortunately the Squidward boss only got as far as the concept table, so there's nothing to work with. I did do a little research and found out that he was supposed to be the final boss, or at least the third.
I honestly wondered if it could be recreated. Or remake it. Though we already finely got a squidward boss in truth or square. Though do you know if its possible to create and import models or sound effects into a gamecube iso. BTW are you excited for the bfbb fan remake by Jacob?
Adventure Master 18 There is a tool called Renderware Graphics used mostly by Grand Theft Auto modders for modeling (some GTA games use the same engine as BFBB). Perhaps we can use that to make compatible models, or maybe convert the ones in the game for use elsewhere (like a remake). And yes, I'm excited for that remake. It's what got me back to BFBB again.
George Mastrapa hmm... reimporting a squidward boss that looks like from the concept art. how it should work out: buttons are at each corner of the level. after you cruise bubble to stun robot squidward you press the button and something should smash down on one of his tentacles and after that 1 will fall off.
Oh god you 2 are TERRIBLY wrong. It's not a "Beta" And it's not broken. It's Uncut. Unused. The GAME DEVELOPERS made this, and they cut it because they didn't like the idea.
If there's ever an HD Remaster of this game (and there should be), they should add every single unused asset from the beta of this game and work it into the remaster, and with all this new hardware at their disposal, they've no excuse not to. ^_^. EDIT 8/14/19: Told y'all. ;)
Wow... Patrick is very big for him to be half the size of a robot spongebob is in. The robot is super small. I bet that’s why they scrapped it. How can spongebob be in that thing?!? It’s sooooo small!
I assume the boss cannot actually be beaten? Judging by the shockwaves from its stomp attack not being able to hurt you, and the fact that some sound effects appear to be missing from it's attacks, I currently think that's the case.
Yes, apparently it cannot be defeated. After destroying the arms, there doesn't seem to be anything else to. His upper head can be targeted with the cruise bubble, but nothing happens. Unfinished, but playable.
+George Mastrapa (MetaG64) the thing about beta levels is they act differently for one than they will for another. can you access this with any version of dolphin?
Now I see why they didnt include it....its just....2:34 creepy and just very very derpy... but then again in the actual game what's the point of the robot regrowing muscle arms if it doesn't do anything with them?
I've always wondered what happened to this boss, I remember seeing it in the trailer along with an unused boss where you fight RoboBob Steelpants wielding a spatula on a grill (not sure if that actually made it in, never played the game myself)
I saw this boss in a trailer, But when I played it the boss wasn’t there. I’m kinda curious to why it was removed in the first place. One possibility is that maybe the devs thought this phase was unneeded or that they couldn’t think of anything to go with it.
I think this fight was originally gonna be like the egg golem fight from SA2, where you would have to disable both of the arms so that you could climb up the arms, and maybe there was gonna be a button on the back that would damage the robot.
So it would appear that all of his other acomplishments Fixing old goo lagoon Plankton in the unused boss Etc Will ONLY be enjoyed by him because 3 years later he has yet to post about them and seems to have abandoned his channel, and anyone hoping for whatever he may have done in the future
Thank goodness THQ Nordic has decided to announce the Battle for Bikini Bottom remake we never even thought would happen... cut content added in is one of the features described in the Steam Page in fact!
@@Manxine14 I remember her having one of those crosshair things on her when using the cruise bubble in the final boss, but I was never able to reach her.
This boss is... unsettling. the way it erraticly moves and flails around... this thing would have terrified my 10 year old self when i got the game all those years ago.
The idea I had was this: We create a new meter to hold 5 (2, 1 and 2) and script it to work. Then, script Spongebob to be in the Second part. Next, add a target on the back of the boss on the Second part, as well. Finally, code the stomping attack to the Second part and third part, aswell as add stuff to the ground-pound like attack to make the rocks fly and they harm you if you get hit. Defeating boss: Step 1: Have Patrick deflate the arms by picking up a rock and throwing them at the arms. Step 2: Have Spongebob use the Bubble Cruiser to hit the target on the back. Step 3: Repeat Step 1. Edit: I forgot to say to script it to also lead you to the last phase.
I guess Spongebot was supposed to have three phases but got cut to two for time constraints. That also explains why Plankton-bot repairs Spongebot with those arms too! You'd probably had to knock Spongebot out in this form before entering it's interiors. Great find btw, glad to finally see that in action!!
THQ just announced Battle for Bikini Bottom remake, and claimed they're going to restore cut content from the original, including the cut Robo Squidward fight :DDD
@@BF_Brix ooooh snap a robo squidward?! I heard they were going to put anchor armed spongebob boss fight in the remastered version, but I didn't know robot squidward would be in it. Now I definitely can't wait for the game.
I can imagine how the fight would go, You'd switch to Patrick, and throw rocks at spongebot's arms, then switch to SpongeBob blowing up spongebot's tubes, after you'd have to cruise bubble his eyes, and you win
Wow, I didn't even believe that this boss phase was this far into development!!! If I make a sequel to the DYKG SpongeBob video, I'll definitely include this in it, and I'll make sure I give credit. DYKG SpongeBob: th-cam.com/video/Lp9aRcZaK9c/w-d-xo.html&feature=gp-n-y&google_comment_id=z13cftn4mkvzcpneq23wyloqaqzqzh00f
I suppose how this was going to work was you would deflate both arms and that would reveal a weak spot that you would throw rocks at, then he would re-inflate his arms then rinse repeat for a certain amount of times. His attacks could’ve been the stomping, trying to squash the player with his arms (when inflated) and maybe trying to throw a giant anchor like Spongebob did in the show.
It would be so cool if Spongebob had his fight with his Karate form, Patrick had a fight with the muscle arm form, and Sandy had a fight with the Jellyfish catcher form!
I think what we got in the final game as a second phase was the Sandy phase. She is the most agile of the three, so her phase being more platforming based makes sense.
This is very eerie..The fact that he has no sounds makes it worse. Very interesting! But He was already a creepy boss for me. Especially the KAH- RAH-TEH part freaked me out, an annoyed me severely. I like it though. It's just a creepy mystery for me. The fight was probably cut because of how simple it was compared to the other robots, and especially compared to his first and second fight with Spongebob. Patrick is obviously supposed to be much much smaller. The arena shrunk too. It was much bigger for Spongebob's battle. But why is Mr. Krabs standing there? Did I miss something, or did he have a cut scene that was removed?
when saw the commercial for this video game I saw the muscle bob buff pants boss and when I played the last level I thought wait what I thought I was supposed to face a different sponge bob boss I thought maybe it was for a different station but I guess it was the beta version of the game.
I know this is years ago but I swear to God I killed this boss on my version of the game. On the version I had, iirc, after I killed the flying Karate Spongebob, everyone thought he was dead, but winded up coming back to life and detached his arms and the muscle arms expanded out instead and his jet feet turnt into actual legs.
Imagine if this boss was in three stages sandy stage Patrick stage and spongebob stage. Sandy would weaken the robot and make the roof fall in in the process. Patrick does what's shown here and weakens the muscle arms and then spongebob comes in destroys the anchor arms for good and delivers the final blow. Imagine if that was what actually in the game it would be awesome
It made it THIS far into development. Even in trailers. And yet Purple Lamp didn't bring it back when all it was missing was cutscenes related to it. Sucks, man. :(
my guess of why this is scrapped: You could play as Patrick and attack the outside or play as Spongebob and attack the inside. The idea was scrapped because it makes no sense to be honest.
sizzurp.mp3 The steam page says “Restored content that was cut from the original game like the Robo Squidward boss fight and more” so they probably will!
How spongebob use the rocket bubble and it shows that its eye is a weak spot. My guess is Phase 1: you play as Patrick to take out the arms and throw a rock at one of the eyes ( that triggers phase 2 Phase 2: get on a floating platform ( that are in all the phases ) as spongebob to ame a rocket bubble at the eyes ( that triggers phase 3 Phase 3: idk you think of something
Phase 1: Possibly what we got in the final game, switches to Phase 2 Phase 2: Patrick throws things at the robot, Switches to Spongebob for the Cruise Bubble, but can't reach all of them. Phase 3: Sandy pulls the plugs on the arms, so Spongebob can get inside to the rest of the weak spots Phase 4: What we got in the final game. Possibly.
It’s super disappointing that rehydrated was rushed just like the original version. The fact that you can see concept art of this boss fight in the game and find untextured models of this boss outside the chum bucket makes me believe that it was at one point gonna be in rehydrated. It’s a shame they didn’t maybe make a DLC or a Update that added this into the game. But who knows, maybe cosmic shake will somehow have it.
you know i think i know why this boss battle was cut because when you break both of the arms you can,t do nothing else so it hard to beat it and it moves does,t kill you so i think that why they cut this boss battle out when you play as patrick
I hope they bring back this boss too, I liked the classic full game boss, tho from a gameplay wise stance, they completely dropped Sandy and patrick, while most bosses in the game from my memory required atleast 2 characters for different phases

The reason I think that this fight would take place before SpongeBob goes inside the robots head is because in the actual finished game we see the robot arms inflate as shown in this video before SpongeBob enters the head. After the muscle fight SpongeBob would then be forced to turn back to normal either commanded by the robot plankton or by himself this is when SpongeBob would go into the robots head and thus the final phase would commence.
remember this is only my theory there are many things that are most likely wrong. this is just how I think this fight would have gone down if this was actually put into the final game.
Funny how this is even more unfinished in Rehydrated. It at least works kinda here. Rehydrated just has non textured area and the model.
Holy plot twist! Mass hysteria, cats and dogs living together... the level works!!
It's pretty amazing how you got this to work. Your hard work is appreciated!
I'll try to accommodate the TCRF article to these relevations, but it's late so it might not all be done tonight.
Anyway, you're amazing for getting this to work. Great job!
No problem. I'm just happy to make you all happy. Ya should've seen my reaction when it worked.
+George Mastrapa (MetaG64) please post beta content here soon as possible
George Mastrapa what was ur reaction
good
[Insert obvious comment about how this phase will probably finally be included in the upcoming with everything about it finally being completed]
You beat me to the punch my guy lol
Unfortunately it wasn't
Insert obvious comment complaining about how no cut content was properly implemented.
Note: Rehydrated is still unfinished. There might be a chance of this boss coming out, either on its own or another phase of the final boss.
I can see why this was scrapped.
Firstly, the developers quickly ran out of ideas after both the hands are destroyed, as the boss has no AI changes after they are destroyed. Next, many of the attacks seem either too easy or way too difficult to avoid. For example, the hit for not destroying one of the arms fast enough takes so long to trigger it renders it almost pointless. The Stomp, however, seems unavoidable as it is right now. These are just some of my theories on why the boss was scrapped.
I think it's just unfinished
Samuel Tyrcha If it was unfinished, but not scrapped, they would've included it in the game (as they would finish it :P)
I think it's that it was started way to late in development. This build of the boss was from August of 2003, and you can see that it isn't even close to being final.
Chris Maybe.. I'm not too sure, I'm just theorizing.
PlantLivesMatter Same here.
R.I.P. THQ You made enormously great games that did my childhood.
R.I.P. old Spongebob, the modern Spongebob just sucks..
atleast i got memories of a great time.
-Bob.
-Mr. Krabs, yes?
-You must destroy the Metal Spoonge!
Robot Starfire Is Strong, And She Have Muscle Arms!
This Is A Worst Game Ever!
with the right arm hit animation, the boss kinda looks at his arm, then at patric, then back at his arm like what was that for
Idog0698 Ha.
why idog do you have the unused boss i your guy and the eyes look like spongebobs eyes
I THINK I HAVE FUDGE IN MY PANTS!!!
This is incredible. If you could make this work along with the sundae and a few other things. You could make a director's cut. Your only problem is getting the squidward boss. I mean the one from the movie theater and I here it was in the beta. If you can get that, you're awesome! At least more than you already are for this!
Adventure Master 18 Thanks. Unfortunately the Squidward boss only got as far as the concept table, so there's nothing to work with. I did do a little research and found out that he was supposed to be the final boss, or at least the third.
I honestly wondered if it could be recreated. Or remake it. Though we already finely got a squidward boss in truth or square. Though do you know if its possible to create and import models or sound effects into a gamecube iso. BTW are you excited for the bfbb fan remake by Jacob?
Adventure Master 18 There is a tool called Renderware Graphics used mostly by Grand Theft Auto modders for modeling (some GTA games use the same engine as BFBB). Perhaps we can use that to make compatible models, or maybe convert the ones in the game for use elsewhere (like a remake). And yes, I'm excited for that remake. It's what got me back to BFBB again.
George Mastrapa hmm... reimporting a squidward boss that looks like from the concept art. how it should work out: buttons are at each corner of the level. after you cruise bubble to stun robot squidward you press the button and something should smash down on one of his tentacles and after that 1 will fall off.
Wow your pretty incredible in your ideas. What about the possible cancelled glove world level. What would you do in that.
When it waves its arms and dances it's freaking creepy
Holy ducks! You did it!! At this point, we can probably make the entire thing playable!
perhaps. they would need to trigger all the attacks, and find ways to hurt it..there has to be more pain animations that can't be triggered
+Idog0698 Yea, but soon...soon.avi
+Shadi the Meme Feaster huh? soon what
Idog0698 soon it'll work properly.
we would have to find out how its was normally ment to be defeated
this early spongebob boss is terrifying especially because of it being broken and you can't die from this boss
because its a beta
Oh god you 2 are TERRIBLY wrong.
It's not a "Beta" And it's not broken.
It's Uncut. Unused.
The GAME DEVELOPERS made this, and they cut it because they didn't like the idea.
+Karina k
Sean S along with no sound assets
Sean S itis scary
Sad to see this boss get cut from the game. I would love to see this in the game. . . At least the final boss was pretty good
Damn. If only some sort of remaster came out. Oh well.
@@TastyChurro boy i have some good news for you
Jayden Tyus bad news, this fight wasn’t in the game.
0:16 meanwhile spongebob was deactivating the robot robo-spongebob was attacking!
Wait that's actually smart asf
Andres Matallana I wish that was like a mid boss fight after getting past the first half of the robot spongebob brain exploration
Holy crap, you actually did it! I, among many others, didn't think it would be done. Hats off to you!
If there's ever an HD Remaster of this game (and there should be), they should add every single unused asset from the beta of this game and work it into the remaster, and with all this new hardware at their disposal, they've no excuse not to. ^_^.
EDIT 8/14/19: Told y'all. ;)
+XxXindybobXxX But then it wouldn't really be a remaster.
+XxXindybobXxX Like the HD "ports" of the Kingdom Hearts series?
+spongebobfan78 Essentially, yes, but better!
Mark Merete But then they would most likely have to change the story line.
Chris It can be worked as extras...
Wow... Patrick is very big for him to be half the size of a robot spongebob is in. The robot is super small. I bet that’s why they scrapped it. How can spongebob be in that thing?!? It’s sooooo small!
IKR? He wouldnt even be able to jump around in it due to it being small
This boss was to be used after the first phase that was used in the real game
this was supposed to replace the brain circuits?
No, it wasn't, nobody knows except the people who made the game. NO info was given out regarding this.
This was in 2015 and I’m watching this in 2024 and it’s already been 20 years since this game came out in 2003
This is gonna be in the remake i hope just like robo squidward is planned to be.
maybe right before you go in? maybe the arms fall off and normal arms regrow and then you go in!
Yeah he’s unused
This game instantly brings back childhood memories
I assume the boss cannot actually be beaten? Judging by the shockwaves from its stomp attack not being able to hurt you, and the fact that some sound effects appear to be missing from it's attacks, I currently think that's the case.
Yes, apparently it cannot be defeated. After destroying the arms, there doesn't seem to be anything else to. His upper head can be targeted with the cruise bubble, but nothing happens. Unfinished, but playable.
+George Mastrapa (MetaG64) the thing about beta levels is they act differently for one than they will for another. can you access this with any version of dolphin?
+George Mastrapa (MetaG64) wait. its the back of her head.
+Idog0698 can you ask meta to make it so the arms,stomp attack hurts you?
+ashton jason hmm. what if he makes it so when you deflate the right arm it spawns a golden spatula
I thought they were missing something when I kept looking at the trailer (I think this would have been before spongebob went inside)
Now I see why they didnt include it....its just....2:34 creepy and just very very derpy...
but then again in the actual game what's the point of the robot regrowing muscle arms if it doesn't do anything with them?
i can see why this was unused its ssssooooo creepy
It was kind of unfinished so that is why..
+night shroud96 dude opinions
+night shroud96 Being unfinished isn't a reason to cancel something because if it unfinished they would just keep working on it.
The Happy Face King I meant about WHY it looks creepy because its unfinished..!
cxdeakins98 No
I am saying why it so creepy because its UNFINSHED.. it would have probably look less creepy if it was finished..
I've always wondered what happened to this boss, I remember seeing it in the trailer along with an unused boss where you fight RoboBob Steelpants wielding a spatula on a grill (not sure if that actually made it in, never played the game myself)
I saw this boss in a trailer, But when I played it the boss wasn’t there. I’m kinda curious to why it was removed in the first place. One possibility is that maybe the devs thought this phase was unneeded or that they couldn’t think of anything to go with it.
I think this fight was originally gonna be like the egg golem fight from SA2, where you would have to disable both of the arms so that you could climb up the arms, and maybe there was gonna be a button on the back that would damage the robot.
So it would appear that all of his other acomplishments
Fixing old goo lagoon
Plankton in the unused boss
Etc
Will ONLY be enjoyed by him because 3 years later he has yet to post about them and seems to have abandoned his channel, and anyone hoping for whatever he may have done in the future
Thank goodness THQ Nordic has decided to announce the Battle for Bikini Bottom remake we never even thought would happen... cut content added in is one of the features described in the Steam Page in fact!
1:18 Huh, I never knew Sandy had a hit animation as an NPC
It went unused in the final game, but it's still in the files.
@@Manxine14 I remember her having one of those crosshair things on her when using the cruise bubble in the final boss, but I was never able to reach her.
This boss is... unsettling. the way it erraticly moves and flails around... this thing would have terrified my 10 year old self when i got the game all those years ago.
Common Sense I was traumatized by the brain level
And the idle extra video he did for this boss was even worse
The idea I had was this: We create a new meter to hold 5 (2, 1 and 2) and script it to work. Then, script Spongebob to be in the Second part. Next, add a target on the back of the boss on the Second part, as well. Finally, code the stomping attack to the Second part and third part, aswell as add stuff to the ground-pound like attack to make the rocks fly and they harm you if you get hit.
Defeating boss:
Step 1: Have Patrick deflate the arms by picking up a rock and throwing them at the arms.
Step 2: Have Spongebob use the Bubble Cruiser to hit the target on the back.
Step 3: Repeat Step 1.
Edit: I forgot to say to script it to also lead you to the last phase.
I thought it would be impossible forever to enter the level, and it's amazing to see something new from a game you like so much
Let's get him for the remaster
Already happening since it was cut, and the cut content is being restored.
@@BlueKnightV20 nice
I guess Spongebot was supposed to have three phases but got cut to two for time constraints. That also explains why Plankton-bot repairs Spongebot with those arms too! You'd probably had to knock Spongebot out in this form before entering it's interiors.
Great find btw, glad to finally see that in action!!
If only we could make this into a finished boss.
THQ just announced Battle for Bikini Bottom remake, and claimed they're going to restore cut content from the original, including the cut Robo Squidward fight :DDD
Let’s hope this phase is one of the things they’re including.
@@BF_Brix ooooh snap a robo squidward?! I heard they were going to put anchor armed spongebob boss fight in the remastered version, but I didn't know robot squidward would be in it. Now I definitely can't wait for the game.
I can imagine how the fight would go,
You'd switch to Patrick, and throw rocks at spongebot's arms, then switch to SpongeBob blowing up spongebot's tubes, after you'd have to cruise bubble his eyes, and you win
Wow, I didn't even believe that this boss phase was this far into development!!! If I make a sequel to the DYKG SpongeBob video, I'll definitely include this in it, and I'll make sure I give credit.
DYKG SpongeBob: th-cam.com/video/Lp9aRcZaK9c/w-d-xo.html&feature=gp-n-y&google_comment_id=z13cftn4mkvzcpneq23wyloqaqzqzh00f
WolfGangGaming Yeah, I was really surprised it can even be damaged.
Yes... Strange indeed.
Is this only in the Gamecube Version? And is it possible to damage it using Sandy?
Attempting to swtich to Sandy crashes them, and the Xbox version can do this too.
hmmm very interesting!
This video...
Is recommended for me in *2018!*
I can see why they replace it with Karate Spongebob, I mean just look at his arms.
I’m glad they took this out. It would’ve given me nightmares as a kid
When trying to look this boss up, I accidentally looked up "Musclebob Buffpants" which is the name of an episode. XD
great. Now i must look up Buff spongebob because of my curiousity.
I suppose how this was going to work was you would deflate both arms and that would reveal a weak spot that you would throw rocks at, then he would re-inflate his arms then rinse repeat for a certain amount of times. His attacks could’ve been the stomping, trying to squash the player with his arms (when inflated) and maybe trying to throw a giant anchor like Spongebob did in the show.
Holy shit, it was a Patrick boss fight? I can't wait to see if dataminers find a Sandy phase.
It would be so cool if Spongebob had his fight with his Karate form, Patrick had a fight with the muscle arm form, and Sandy had a fight with the Jellyfish catcher form!
+Hungover Hero wait,there's a jellyfish catcher form!?!!??!?!!??? ?!??!?!!?!
papyrus the skeleton
Oh, no, I was just saying it would be cool if there was.
I think what we got in the final game as a second phase was the Sandy phase. She is the most agile of the three, so her phase being more platforming based makes sense.
There was thoughts for a Squidward Boss on the unrelated note.
Doctor: all dreams make sence
MY DREAMS:
Did you know gaming sent me here
same
Yep.
oussama mrissa

When the hacker fights an another hacker:
This is very eerie..The fact that he has no sounds makes it worse. Very interesting! But He was already a creepy boss for me. Especially the KAH- RAH-TEH part freaked me out, an annoyed me severely. I like it though. It's just a creepy mystery for me. The fight was probably cut because of how simple it was compared to the other robots, and especially compared to his first and second fight with Spongebob. Patrick is obviously supposed to be much much smaller. The arena shrunk too. It was much bigger for Spongebob's battle. But why is Mr. Krabs standing there? Did I miss something, or did he have a cut scene that was removed?
Kate Ryder I find it very odd that they got this far and didn’t finish it
It seems like a waste of time
when saw the commercial for this video game I saw the muscle bob buff pants boss and when I played the last level I thought wait what I thought I was supposed to face a different sponge bob boss I thought maybe it was for a different station but I guess it was the beta version of the game.
I'm glad they didn't use this it is creepy no wonder they didn't use this
Wish they added this in the remake /:
aww man this could be the very last pease of it like when it grows balloon muscles after you have beaten it up
ANCHOR ARMS! HOW BIG O YOU WANT EM? BEEFY? EXTRA? And for the robots . . . . . unused.
Wink wink
I WAS A WIMP BEFORE I HAD ANCHOR ARMS
I know this is years ago but I swear to God I killed this boss on my version of the game. On the version I had, iirc, after I killed the flying Karate Spongebob, everyone thought he was dead, but winded up coming back to life and detached his arms and the muscle arms expanded out instead and his jet feet turnt into actual legs.
Imagine if this boss was in three stages sandy stage Patrick stage and spongebob stage. Sandy would weaken the robot and make the roof fall in in the process. Patrick does what's shown here and weakens the muscle arms and then spongebob comes in destroys the anchor arms for good and delivers the final blow. Imagine if that was what actually in the game it would be awesome
It made it THIS far into development. Even in trailers. And yet Purple Lamp didn't bring it back when all it was missing was cutscenes related to it. Sucks, man. :(
Is this little guy making a 2019 return
I believe so.
Sure hope its not creepy
you don't know how long i've waited to see this
They should've kept this boss cause the face at 0:20 is so funny!
Its scary for me
my guess of why this is scrapped:
You could play as Patrick and attack the outside or play as Spongebob and attack the inside.
The idea was scrapped because it makes no sense to be honest.
I hope they re-make this boss battlr in BFBB: Rehydrated
sizzurp.mp3 ROBOT SQUIDWARD BOSS IS BACK IN REMAKE!!!
sizzurp.mp3 The steam page says “Restored content that was cut from the original game like the Robo Squidward boss fight and more” so they probably will!
Lamp Oil yesssss!!! I’m so hype!!
Lamp Oil and hey what is Restored Content?
Lamp Oil WOH WOH STOP THE CLOCKS, REALSHIT???!!
How spongebob use the rocket bubble and it shows that its eye is a weak spot. My guess is
Phase 1: you play as Patrick to take out the arms and throw a rock at one of the eyes ( that triggers phase 2
Phase 2: get on a floating platform ( that are in all the phases ) as spongebob to ame a rocket bubble at the eyes ( that triggers phase 3
Phase 3: idk you think of something
Phase 1: Possibly what we got in the final game, switches to Phase 2
Phase 2: Patrick throws things at the robot, Switches to Spongebob for the Cruise Bubble, but can't reach all of them.
Phase 3: Sandy pulls the plugs on the arms, so Spongebob can get inside to the rest of the weak spots
Phase 4: What we got in the final game.
Possibly.
Maybe when THQNORDIC remasters this game, they can maybe add the full version of this boss as a bonus or something :)
It’s super disappointing that rehydrated was rushed just like the original version. The fact that you can see concept art of this boss fight in the game and find untextured models of this boss outside the chum bucket makes me believe that it was at one point gonna be in rehydrated. It’s a shame they didn’t maybe make a DLC or a Update that added this into the game. But who knows, maybe cosmic shake will somehow have it.
How were you able to implimant this boss into a legit form off an entity?
I didn't. I just fixed the problem that prevented the level from loading.
George Mastrapa Excellent work though.
Blake Davis has gvt
Ohhhh, so this is why Patrick had one less stage then Sandy. He was supposed to be used in the Final Boss.
More like Spongebuff Musclepants.
This looks like a better final boss to me, NOW. If this were in the game when I would've played it, I would've been terrified.
you know i think i know why this boss battle was cut because when you break both of the arms you can,t do nothing else so it hard to beat it and it moves does,t kill you so i think that why they cut this boss battle out when you play as patrick
No, it's simply unfinished. They usually abandon projects as soon as it's turned out to be cut.
I hope they bring back this boss too, I liked the classic full game boss, tho from a gameplay wise stance, they completely dropped Sandy and patrick, while most bosses in the game from my memory required atleast 2 characters for different phases
