/vr/ - Retro Games

this is pretty cool

I never did beat this thing.

How is this game compared to battle for Bikini bottom

>>5643445
not retro

>>5643445
It's a 2D side scroller. Sony generally discouraged those, but by the twilight years of the PS1 they didn't care anymore. I've played both and they're good games although Supersponge being a late PS1 game has a bit of a budget feel to it.

Thank you so much anon. It seems basic enough to make some really cool mods for, given the time and opportunity.

Someone, port this thing to the original Xbox and Wii
For shits and giggles

Fag answer

>source code available so that any chad brainlet can compile their very own PC version
>THQ never okay'd a PC release

Just what the fuck was up with the anti-PC stance publishers adopted in the 2000s, anyway?

Nice. Someone can do a HD remake. Or a James Pond crossover.

It's a late release PS1 budget title, anon. THQ shit it out for a quick buck. The PC had its own Spongecuck games at the time anyway.

>>5644204
Does this actually compile a PC version?
Source code != PC port. You'll have to replace everything that interacts with the PS1 hardware.

>>5644213
Everyone also had a PC, this sort of game would be perfect to run on walmart toasters. It won't even need a 3D accelerator!

>>5644224
You'd need Windows libraries but the graphics and sound would also need to be completely redone in a PC format. Keep in mind that PS1 games were usually written in C++ so the actual specifics of hardware interfacing are invisible to the programmer.

Not really. Unless you like copying data.

It's weird that the models used for the pre-rendered sprites (and that are included in this download) have a really low polycount.

I think that at first they wanted to do the whole game in realtime, but for some reason they decided to use pre-rendered sprites.

No? C++ still has low level access to memory.

It's also easier to port those to the GBA.

This please

Who Operation Krabby Patty here?

>>5645130

I'd love to see this dissected by someone who knows what they're doing.

>>5645130
Based

Is this anything other than a generic shovelware 2D platformer that looks like it belongs on the GBA?

Now someone can cobble together code and assets from this and that leaked Mortal Kombat build and create Spongal KomBob TrilogyPants.

I will main Iron Dogfish.

>>5647691
nope

>>5644365
>Good music.
Agreed

>>5647691
It's not bad.

so does this help with psx emulation or is it just for porting to windows??

>>5649982
psx emulation doesn't really need any more help

>>5649982
We can port it to Windows??

>>5643363

SBSPSS/source/level/layerback.cpp, line 115.
I want to believe that all those games designed primarly for kid audience are full of swearwords commented in their codes

>>5652592
Damn

>>5653179

I wonder if the source code for this game being dumped has anything to do with the BfBB remaster that was announced.
