SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom
Developer: Heavy Iron Studios
Publisher: THQ
Released: 2003, GameCube, PlayStation 2, Xbox
SpongeBob SquarePants: Battle for Bikini Bottom is one of the many SpongeBob SquarePants video games to come out during the franchise's initial breakout in 2003. Ever since release, it became widely regarded as one of the best SpongeBob video games because of the addictive object-collecting mechanics, creative and expansive worlds, and capturing the look and charm of the show. Since then, it became a cult classic and even received a remake for newer consoles.
As ambitious and big as the game is, it was originally planned to be even bigger and more alive. There are several cut levels appearing in a drastically unfinished state, unused animations that would have added more detail to the characters, and several leftover objects from earlier points in development. And if that isn't enough, there's concept art for locations that never made it into the game!
