Hazel, for compiling a playlist of old BfBB videos from her time playing and working with me to fill knowledge gaps. Without her, the video wouldn't have been nearly as thorough.
ExiledPrince, for getting a hold of and interviewing Coel, which helped verify some of my research. Our original plan was to work on this project together, but I ended up restarting from the ground up and researching/writing it myself. His effort before the redirection was appreciated!
ItsMaximum, for creating the WR progression graph!
GlitchPHD, for masking the pirate theater scene!
JaredsGiantz, for input on the introduction and comedic relief.
smloader and Musicman, for music recommendations!
SeilCW, for uploading BfBB to noclip.website/ , providing great aerial views!

And yes, that grinding shinies on the top of the sand castle is exactly what I did. Big reason my run didn't have any footage is because I had no way of recording it. Wife and I do plan on speedrunning the remake. I wish I hadn't been so big a dick in those days. When this game started ramping up, I was going back to Majora's Mask to do more runs I never ended up recording.

Graph is courtesy of ItsMaximum, who had to put up with sooooo much of my bullshit to get it just right. Love him for helping with that. And as for the writing, the style I was going for was more of a thesis rather than an info dump. I didn't expect so much comedy to get squeezed in, but as soon as Loader and I started working more closely, the synergy developed into some... Really sick shit. A lot of the lines in my original script with no comedic value whatsoever were even made hilarious just with his inflections and take on the script. And the cruise boost skit was literally just him spouting out random crap, and I instantly knew I wanted it in the final cut.

I remember genuinely disliking that Game Grumps episode. I felt Arin was definitely not giving the game an honest shot and he just continued to give it shit while not being particularly good at it. As for the game itself, I'm of the few who grew up with every version. I rented the Gamecube version first, then had a PS2 disc, and then when the PS2 disc stopped working I owned it on the xbox. I might be wrong, but I remember the Xbox version being the speediest because it didn't temporarily freeze everytime you grabbed a spatula (I could be 100% wrong tho it's been about 2 decades.) The game had so much fan service from the best years of the series, the hub was a joy to explore, as was the worlds surrounding them and the game reeked of creative level design. I'm actually really happy the speedrunning community brought this game back to light, it really is an underrated classic

23:08 ‘As the year came to a close Lab door skip had not been found.’ I think what the TAS community was trying to do is very comparable to how taxi glitch was found on rehydrated on day 1 of the game being released.

thanks shift, ive been watching your vids on battle for bikini bottom for about a month and a half now. im not a sub or a part of the community, but i really respect this game more now than i did when i was a child. i wanted to try all the glitches and exploits, thinking theyd be easy to do and its just execution. took me about like 15 times to get 1 cruise boost that was actually fast enough to do the exploits. i like your stuff. keep it up.

Thank you speed runners :) There was a time where i was going to go to the extra miles to play playstation 2 games specially since you need special courds for the new tv's to hook them up. But after seeing shift's videos because of one spongebob episode i was trying to remember i was like so hook on wanting to play this game again and then few weeks or months later a spongebob game has been announced. So basically that's how the story of me figuring out that this game was in development.
