SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom Rehydrated

This build of the game is apparently from October/November. some elements/visuals still look *rough*. If this demo was a build from February, I'd be worried. they still need to show off more than 1 level, I shouldn't even have to fucking say that.

It's not. Release is sometime in the Summer.

this. I hated Hat in Time because of how sluggish it felt.

>HiT
>sluggish
um. ok.

wtf? Hat in Time was fine. Did you use the sprint hat?

Thats how fast he ran in the original. Theres no run button.

from what little I played, it felt sluggish. I only bought the game because Hat Kid is cute and funny.

new spongebob design is soulless

>cute and funny
based pedophile

>pedo retard has shit taste and ADD tier patience
Of course.

SHUT THE FUCK UP

The Spongebob model they use was supplied by Nickelodeon themselves, so there's little they can actually do about it. SHiFT commented about it in one of his videos regarding the subject.

so, you felt the one-handed controls were sluggish because you were too busy jerking it to Hat Kid? based.

Looks fine to me although the colors do look a bit over saturated
Other then that I'm happy with what I'm seeing.

>everything but spongebob has effort
Fuck nickeldododoodn, yeah this can be over looked but it triggers my autism so fucking much

holy fuck, why is it so saturated

would playing the original cause me to get burned out as soon as the remake hits? Should I even bother with the original at this point or just wait?
how much longer do we have left?

Why everyone looks so good except SpongeBob?

MFW I saw how good it looks now.

>that saturation

...

PC mods will fix this

the models always looked like shit

they better. PC modders did a decent job with fixing the Spyro trilogy's ugly models.

Just wait, the remake's coming sometime in the summer

TURN DOWN THE SATURATION

This game is waay too close to the original. You'll just be burned out. It has the same voice recordings for heaven's sake.

Nicky themselves sent the model, which shouldn't have happened

Read the thread.

The original game was very muted in its color, but I imagine this is yet again another example of the capture card they're using blew up the saturation again.

Nickelodeon gave PurpleLamp Studios the shitty model from the 2nd movie, and won't let them change it.

Attached: sponge.png (438x573, 273K)

I prefer saturation as long as there isn't bloom or motion blur

SpongeRobert's model looks fine, I'm more hoping they change crabs lines to be his actual voice actor

this. here's a screenshot of the models from the 2nd movie (without any fancy lighting or rendering)

looks identical to the specific models they're using in this game.

so basically: fuck Nickelodeon.
got it.

This is why companies shouldn't help on remakes, this is a Prime fucking example why companies shouldn't help with remakes

>fuck Nickelodeon
I mean when has this ever not been the case?

>now
They didn't improve much.

They really brought back the soul, I'm impressed. They even fixed the jumping animation.

Attached: 1503367616026.gif (700x700, 96K)

literally no difference

soul

It doesn't help that Nickelodeon is supposedly rushing this game to release near the new movie in May

This looks almost identical to the same built from last year, considering that when you swing your net you don't hover for a second, which SHiFT did confirm that that was in the game, but got accidentally taken out.

Retarded

Oh yay. Another dumb game for mutts

>yfw the first movie was 16 years ago

Attached: gaki death.jpg (472x480, 43K)

if that's the case, I hope they regularly update it afterwards to fix the models or fix what's rushed

>they literally didn't change a single shit
>jellyfish fields still bright as fuck

The second movie was 5 years ago too.
what the shit.

>"I'm a fucking retard that doesn't know how demos work"

no wait, they DID fix Spongebob's running animation. it actually looks meaty now. Thank God.
maybe Ill buy it after all

the fillter they are using is terrible, they need a more blueish one.

>too saturated
tell that to Gematsu and their shitty capture-card.
like I said, gaming ""journalism"" at it's finest.
( )

Why the fuck are the colors so saturated? Looks like clown vomit.

Imagine being paid to capture videogame footage, and somehow fuck that up.

only in videogame journalism.

Are you fucking retarded? It wasn't even close to being that damn slow.

Going to be keeping track of a pre-release copypasta for future threads
>Game revealed in June 2019, nothing more than a teaser trailer
>Gameplay first shown in the game's pre-alpha state at Gamescom August 2019, Jellyfish Fields mostly complete
>New screenshots posted in October 2019, concept art of Downtown and Rock Bottom shown, playable Patrick, and retooled Jellyfish Fields. Alongside this is the announcement of two special versions of the game
>SHiFT playtesting video in November 2019; SHiFT played Downtown, Goo Lagoon, Poseidome, Mermalair, Rock Bottom, Sand Mountain, Dutchman's Graveyard; all other levels unfinished or not started at this point (8/12; Industrial Park, Kelp Forest, Spongebob's Dream and Chum Bucket Lab missing). More mechanical additions; cancelling moves, better camera, more tutorials, faster bosses
>PAX East press demo in February 2020 snooping by RidersDX revealed Horde Mode having Squidward, Plankton, and Krabs as playable characters, Robot Squidward part of mode, Horde mode described as "better Plankton's Robotic Revenge", robots are bulkier in the mode
>PAX East footage also shown the same month; shows non-sunset Jellyfish Fields and cutscene animations, better animations and movement for Spongebob. NOT the same as the Pre-Alpha demo shown at Gamescom, much more likely close to final release.
>Next few weeks will have Horde Mode footage fully revealed; game slated for Summer 2020 release.
So I'm watching the new footage and I'm really liking how the game looks. I don't even mind the accidental saturation that much, but the final game won't exactly look like this. Pretty much happy with everything except some of the sound design and Spongebob animations. I want that escalating shiny noise back. Spongebob animations can be forgiven, given that the look is supplied by Nickelodeon. Kinda miss sunset Jellyfish Fields too, the aesthetic was really fuckin' nice, even if it was a bit inaccurate.
When's that Horde Mode footage?!

read the post above yours, shithead.

I don't care for multiplayer and The Movie Game would be packaged as a new game, not DLC.

No need to get upset, autist.

Most likely, but I'd prefer if it was just a DLC with all the platforming/slide levels and without all of the filter. Would be a good treat for the fans.

you sound upset.

What filler is there? I haven't played the movie game since I was a kid.

No need to get upset, autist.

I like how the mere mention of autism in a negative light triggers the actual autists.

>they hadn't even started 4/12 levels by november
oh no

wasn't this build like a month behind

>hadn't even started
those levels were either still in the concept art phase, or not developed enough to where they wanted to allow Shift to play it.

still not a good sign at all.

Yes.

BUT WE JUST ATE FIVE ORDERS OF FRIED OYSTER SKINS

You know I really love this game but the fact that they have show more collector editions than levels and screenshots plus the game apparently being rushed is really disgusting

I really hope this won't be another Spyro case where the first game is the most polished and 2 and 3 get progressively worse and worse the further you go

When was the last good piece of Spongebob posting anyway

Attached: spongebob miiverse.jpg (1069x4936, 773K)

Spyro's development was so fucked that they had to bring in Sanzaru Games mid-development and have them work on all of Spyro 3. didn't help that they had to delay the game by a month at the last minute.

we can only hope Rehydrated isn't that screwed.

They brought in another studio, but they're only working on getting the Switch port at 60fps.

Well I excluded the Patty Wagon levels; they weren't too much fun.
The game also forced you to do a lot of ring/time challenges for levels in order to earn tokens to progress, that would probably be the filler I referred to.

i legit trust these guys to put out an incredible remake.

What level are you looking forward to most, besides the cut levels?
For me it's Rock Bottom

Attached: nfyZhYkh.jpg (1024x754, 181K)

I'll give them this, they are actually listening to criticism for the game, which in this day and age is a rarity sadly.

spongebob's dream

I like the dream levels.

I trust the devs but not the publishers. It'll be rushed.

It's the same exact speed, only looks slower due to the bigger FOV. Retard's calling others retards, epic.

>Better Animation Good

dont start that shit please

I wish they remade the movie game instead.

Now we wait for Spongeludo

>cutscenes are reused audio
>they probably didn’t hire Clancy Brown to actually do Mr. Krabs’ voice this time
Game looks great, but god dammit that’d be so lame if that’s the case.

Attached: C73988E8-1541-47D9-B908-2F4C6402EB22.jpg (483x381, 51K)

Someone should annoy Uncle Al to revoice the Krabs lines if he isn't revoiced
youtube.com/watch?v=eViS-dUIdQI

blame Nickelodeon.
multiple people from PAX said Nickelodeon doesn't wanna re-record audio because it would "take too long," and that the game needs to....."get out quick."

what the shit? Nickelodeon gets Clancy Brown to record new stuff for SpongeBob (probably) every month or so. He's voiced Mr. Krabs in literal bargain-bin games like HeroPants.

its not like the old audio is low quality or anything

sshhhhh. just accept the fact that Nick wants to get this game out the door as soon as possible as a movie cash-grab. I've accepted defeat and allowed this misery into my lfie.

but krabs and mermaid man's voices are just awful

that would explain the poor marketing for this game. it's releasing in Summer and we've only a sliver of it.

It ain’t, but Clancy Brown IS Mr. Krabs. Even as a kid I knew that stand-in they got was total bullshit, that’s probably the biggest knock against this game, and it’s always grinded my gears they got this crappy stand-in to do it instead. It’s like doing an Ed Edd n Eddy game without Peter Kalamis as Rolf.

god it must suck knowing clancy was in revenge of the flying dutchman a game that was and sold like shit and probably noped outta BFBB thinking itd be just as piss poor as the last game

why does this sound so loud and seem so slow

Didnt they get an actual speedrunner of the game to try out the remake and he said it felt damn near perfect? I think you just might not like platformer's anymore user.

They confirmed they did get Clancy Brown

Source?

source?

Attached: 1565321756293.jpg (500x420, 56K)

Yep. They explained that it seems slower because the aspect ratio is much wider than the original and the camera might be more zoomed out as well, but the actual movement speed is basically 1:1.

I can't find the source soz

source? as said, we've heard nothing but the opposite from people that talked to THQNordic at Pax.

Camp coral is a prequel series with spongebob characters as kids

Camp Coral's a flashback scene that will be in the upcoming 3rd SpongeBob movie.
It's also a flashback scene that's also getting an entire mini spin-off series.

Nick ordered an spinoff after hillenburg died, it's a prequel about SpongeBob meeting most of the characters who aren't Patrick in a camp, it's a cgi series who apparently is going to be released this or the next year, you can see this in the new movie as well
