2:34 For context, the reason why Spongebob looks so gritty and somewhat hyper detailed here, is that this is a DIRECT reference to Rat Fink! 🐀 Rat Fink is a beloved mascot within the world of hot rod/car custom culture, with it being made by the artist Ed Roth. If you're not sure if you have ever seen this mascot on anything (trust me, he's on like a trillion t-shirts and decals, and even got some official vinyl figure merch through different toy manufacturers), it is simply a very grotesque looking rat, with rancid green skin, MASSIVE bulging eyes, NUMEROUS building veins across his flesh and eyeballs, him wearing a pair of overalls that says R.F. on it, and he is usually portrayed to be riding a hot rod. Although I am not part of the subculture this mascot is attached to, I AM in the indie designer toy/sofubi artist community, and I can see clearly a ton of pieces and custom one-off figurines that were in the vein of mimicking Rat Fink OR are a direct tribute to Ed Roth's extremely detailed 'gross-out' art style.😆 His art style is NOT for everyone, but I really enjoy how overly kinetic and frantic his work feels like!
Considering this game came out in the early 2000’s when the Rat Fink craze was still rampant, it’s not really all that surprising tbh. I think I also remember their being a Rat Fink reference in one of the newer SpongeBob episodes

Spongebob's design in diesel is actually a parody of rat fink or heavily inspired by, which is the reason why everyone thought it was horrible. They even have concept art of another form he would have taken that looks 100 times more like rat fink than the design we got

I loved playing this game as a kid. I just love how crazy and dark the thing is. It takes the SpongeBob ip in some super weird directions and I LOVE IT. It would be great if we got this game Rehydrated or at least just an upscaled pc port. They’d probably be able to reuse a fair amount of the assets from Cosmic Shake and BFBBR as long as they fit. That way development would be more streamlined. More people should enjoy this wonderful fever dream.

@@Mr.SpicyIce it's more like a small parasite in the back of my brain that often is forgotten for long stretches of time, but never completely gone. It just needs the correct stimulation.
i have incredible memories from this game!! used to play it with my brother on the ps2. absolutely ADORE the soundtrack too. this is one of those rare licensed games that genuinely has a ton of charm & still holds a big place in my heart from childhood :)
This game was the hardest spongebob game ever. Those sleepy seeds were rough to get sometimes man. If you didn't get those seeds, then good luck passing the last level.
The Nighty Nightmares bit at 23:15 just unlocked a massively deep hidden memory cluster for me I played this game over and over when I was young like YOUNG probably 4-6 years old. Hearing that jellyfish spaceship ambiance felt like opening up hidden ruins thousands of years old
You might've played the other aWe Games games, like Enployee of the Month, The Movie Game, Light Camera Pants, and more. They re-use a lot of assets, most likely due to low budgets, small teams, and tight release schedules to coincide with the game releases. They have a lot of charm to them.
Theres a Mandela effect I suffer from. I swear once as a kid i saw a pc port of cftkk. It wasn't nighty nightmare. I looked on the back. It absolutely was its own thing. Years later when mom bought nighty nightmare at a sears......somehow. I didn't recognize it. But saw a giant plankton in the back. Id they ever perhals sell cftkk in a cd sized case for a different console?
I remember when my local video store was going out of business & selling off all their DVD & Video Games, I asked my mom to get me "Spongebob: Revenge of the Flying Dutchman", only to come back with this game. I was bummed at the time but after hearing about all the stuff about RotFD, I think I dodged a bullet. Though the Plankton chase level still freaked me out as a kid. Also while on the topic of underrated Spongebob games, "Lights, Camera, Pants!" is a certified hood classic.
Creature from the Krusty Krab was one of the very first video games I ever played, and I absolutely LOVED it. Especially the tiny levels in the racing section in the beginning of the game
Definitely a good game if you played how it was meant to be and not with motion controls. As a kid I wasnt skilled in games so what really got me through was how interesting the game was even if gross out spongebob was a suprise at first I really loved the game. I did somehow manage to beat it though and probabaly never will understand that ending.
I have so much nostalgia for this game but i never knew what it was till now💀 also for some reason all the memories i have of this game are only the patrick part😭
i know im 9 months late on this, but i feel like yall would love to know; i have a hawaiian floral style shirt with spongebob and patrick in the "Rat Fink" design driving their cars (light blue with pink character outlines). I had found it thrifting, and to be honest it has become one of my favorite shirts, as it is one of the most NICHE thing you can imagine getting your hands on, let alone through sheer blind luck.
Love your voice, commentary AND editing style! This is super interesting too. I've been having a really difficult time getting inspired today, and for some reason this video is doing it for me :-) Makes me wanna go play old CD games from my childhood lol
CFTKK overall is a lot more chaotic compared to AWE Games’ unique take on the story. Nighty Nightmare is supposedly their version of CFTKK, but it might as well be labeled an entirely different game. It doesn’t have the most interesting gameplay, but it DOES have three things that this game doesn’t: Giant Plankton fighting Krabzilla, Dreaded Patrick actually being defeated once and for all, and SpongeBob stopping an alien invasion while revealing he’s a Dirty Harry fan.
This. This was my FIRST console game that I ever played, and I remember it so vividly! I had it on the (at the time) brand new PS2 Slim, and I remember walking out into the living room when I must have been like 6 or 7, and being so excited to play! But then my parents and I noticed something upon booting up the game…we had to continue without saving, which we didn’t understand why. So my parents, after looking up how to save data, told me that we needed a Memory Card! So the next day, Dad went out and got two memory cards, one Blue, the other was Red. That game never ended up with me, and long story short I still have that PS2 and blue memory card to this day. I still play games frequently and it’s all thanks to my wonderful parents, who I miss dearly. Unfortunately, cancer ended up claiming them too soon. I’m 20 now, and I’ll never forget the day they introduced me to my lifelong hobby and passion. I miss them both dearly, and this game is a sincere reminder of them and my journey through life. Anyway, thanks for reading if you made it this far!
I KNEW I wasn’t dreaming about this game! I visually Remember SpongeBob and that very weird face he made. I always thought it was a racing game where you play as certain characters. First you play as SpongeBob and then after he runs after his driving license you play as Plankton (for some reason) if onlyI was able to and play it for myself at the time…
I played this all the time on the GameCube, I remember everything felt super surreal and the artsyle really creeped me out. But that’s what made me love it so much. I guess constantly playing this game as a kid (it was one of only like 6 games I ever had for the GameCube) is one of the main reasons I love anything “uncanny valley” to this day. Going for all the endings was so much fun, and I remember feeling so proud of myself once I finally got 100%.
FINALLY someone talks about this game instead of the other popular ones, i remember getting this game on Christmas back in around 2006/2007 and was so hyped since i also got a spongebob luggage/backpack type bag
i loved this game as a kid, i get so much nostalgia from just the sound effects. Honestly thought it was a fever dream for years until i finally decided to look it up because i never saw anyone acknowledge its existence (its also the only spongebob game ive played)
This game, Tak, Psychonauts, The SpongeBob Movie (The game/ movie itself) was some of the most awesome parts of my childhood, This literally unlocked memories I forgot I had holy shit
I did check the development to see if they had a hand in making my favourite spongebob game from the ps2, the Atlantis game. And they did!. I loved that game as a kid and I am suprised that they are now defunct.
I got so excited when I saw you were talking about the Creature from the Krusty Krab and then I got really confused why I don't recognize anything. Turns out the Gameboy version I played in ny childhood was completely different to the other versions. Man I loved the Gameboy version, such nice memories
This game has had a special place in my heart ever since I first saw it back when I wasn't even able to spell creature. Thank you, discount Gigguk, for talking about it, you've made my day
This game was my childhood! I had this on the Wii, it was surreal, unique, had awesome music, cool combat mechanics, and some of the most creative settings/random plots out there! One of the best Wii games I've ever played, the Plankton freeze ray stage was my favorite!
FINALLY A VIDEO ON THIS SCARY ASS GAME 😭😭 I remember seeing the cover thinking "this game looks rad!" and turn to the back and see Patrick and Spongebob with the most uncanny distorted faces. Something about them looking so unnaturally angry and insane made me feel scared. Whenever my sisters would play it on the TV I would run out the room❤️😭
I remember LOVING this game as a kid! Mostly the Plankton levels but I also remember being confused as heck by that ending, even to this day I don’t know what that ending was…
The pc port was my childhood man, and it *does* have a version that just has the creature name; made it really hard to find as an adult I never actually finished it, the plankton level was too hard for my simple brain and the second half of Patrick's always got me
holy SHIT bro this unlocked some core fucking memories, I played this game ALL THE TIME on my ps2 seeing this gameplay again is so incredibly nostalgic. Great video I can tell this channel is going to blow up dude.
I remember getting this game on the Wii as a launch title. Also had it on DS, even though I really didn't like that one. Awesome video, good to see someone talk about a game which few appear to remember.
I love this game so much! I had this on the Gamecube and I constantly played it over and over again until it was lost. It's such a strange game full of interesting landscapes and designs overall, especially with the thematic loading screens and whole connected dreaming aspect. I would honestly die for a remaster of it since it's probably my second favorite Spongebob game of all time. I also don't think you gave the DS version much credit, it's pretty good despite being very different from the original. It's also far more difficult, especially when you get to the Patrick levels. Also, to answer your question about the titular "creature" from the Krusty Krab, I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be the krabby patty itself since it has its own strange personality and acts as a sort of final boss. It's also the only reason their weird dreams happened in the first place.
Input obligatory intense flashbacks of time with this game now! The Patrick Starfishman levels and vs. Giant Plankton were definitely the best parts of this game! It was the driving and steering that made this game really difficult, I remember I have this game to thank for waking me up from my rose tinted glasses and learning I wasn't good at video games as a kid lmao Also, off topic but... I just realized you're past 1k, and you only have 2 videos, that's amazing dude!
I had the GameCube disk that I played on the Wii, and this game was super eerie for me. There were some levels that had no music, and the ending cutscene had no sound AT ALL. It was like I was playing a liminal game.
I have been trying to look for stuff about this game for the longest time and it brings back so many memories Since I was such a dumb child back then I never really got past level level 3, or prolly even 2, oh god I can remember that Ms. Puff line at the beginning haunting me again, and the dance after every segment too, and Patrick yelling at me in the race, it’s all slowly coming back
Had this on the Wii as a spitting child. Never beat the game bc the last race w SpongeBob to get the patty was almost impossible to me. I’d love to buy a Wii and try it all again. Thanks for bringing me some great memories 🥲
The fact that it was so ambitious according to the co founder explains why the GameCube version has various texture and graphical glitches, audio bugs where the audio is either DELAYED or missing in cutscenes…probably should’ve just stuck to developing for PS2 and Wii, the PS2 would still be a good alternate for those who don’t want motion controls.
I got this game off eBay for the PS2, and despite its unusual weirdness, I'd say it lines up quite well with BFBB and the movie game as some of the greatest Spongebob games to be made.
This was my jam back in the day but the worm level and hearing Jellyfish screaming in fear and possibly agony made me feel bad...right before flying away from Plankton and later shooting him. At least the idle, dialogue animations had more frames than Nicktoons Unite
Here in Mexico there used to be a promotion on some chips bags that included a "toy" called "Tazos" and usually the tazos came branded with a popular cartoon of those times, I remember vividly a line of tazos exclusive with that gritty artstyle... I loved it as a child.

Oh man thanks for the detailed comment I learned a lot from it!
I was gonna comment this! It's a very obscure reference for kids media though LMAO
also i remember finding the DeviantArt page of the guy who did the designs for this game, wonder if theyre still there
i was about to comment this im glad you did it for me
So glad someone pointed this out. Gotta love Rat Fink
Bro this game was so good when I was younger
Spongebob chugging lean before his race was my favorite part
I loved it aswell, have a lot of fun memories about CotCK
Same
It's still good, but it used to, too.
Ah... Childhood memories. Gotta love these old games that slapped so hard back then.
I didn’t expect a Spongebob game to homage Rat Fink of all things in the driving stage.
Considering this game came out in the early 2000’s when the Rat Fink craze was still rampant, it’s not really all that surprising tbh.
I think I also remember their being a Rat Fink reference in one of the newer SpongeBob episodes

It doesn’t have the most interesting gameplay, but it DOES have three things that this game doesn’t: Giant Plankton fighting Krabzilla, Dreaded Patrick actually being defeated once and for all, and SpongeBob stopping an alien invasion while revealing he’s a Dirty Harry fan.
This. This was my FIRST console game that I ever played, and I remember it so vividly! I had it on the (at the time) brand new PS2 Slim, and I remember walking out into the living room when I must have been like 6 or 7, and being so excited to play! But then my parents and I noticed something upon booting up the game…we had to continue without saving, which we didn’t understand why. So my parents, after looking up how to save data, told me that we needed a Memory Card! So the next day, Dad went out and got two memory cards, one Blue, the other was Red. That game never ended up with me, and long story short I still have that PS2 and blue memory card to this day. I still play games frequently and it’s all thanks to my wonderful parents, who I miss dearly. Unfortunately, cancer ended up claiming them too soon. I’m 20 now, and I’ll never forget the day they introduced me to my lifelong hobby and passion. I miss them both dearly, and this game is a sincere reminder of them and my journey through life. Anyway, thanks for reading if you made it this far!
I remember constantly playing this as a kid lol. Always replayed the Plankton stages since I loved destroying innocent people's lives
I KNEW I wasn’t dreaming about this game! I visually Remember SpongeBob and that very weird face he made. I always thought it was a racing game where you play as certain characters. First you play as SpongeBob and then after he runs after his driving license you play as Plankton (for some reason) if onlyI was able to and play it for myself at the time…
This has always been my favourite SpongeBob game (even more than BFBB and the movie game!) Thank you for making a video about it
I played this all the time on the GameCube, I remember everything felt super surreal and the artsyle really creeped me out. But that’s what made me love it so much. I guess constantly playing this game as a kid (it was one of only like 6 games I ever had for the GameCube) is one of the main reasons I love anything “uncanny valley” to this day. Going for all the endings was so much fun, and I remember feeling so proud of myself once I finally got 100%.
FINALLY someone talks about this game instead of the other popular ones, i remember getting this game on Christmas back in around 2006/2007 and was so hyped since i also got a spongebob luggage/backpack type bag
This is the best SpongeBob game, I enjoyed every minute of it and every replay I do I realize how beautiful life is
Im so glad your Channel was recommended to me you definetly earned a Sub! Great Video on this Spongebob Game i never knew existed lol
i loved this game as a kid, i get so much nostalgia from just the sound effects. Honestly thought it was a fever dream for years until i finally decided to look it up because i never saw anyone acknowledge its existence (its also the only spongebob game ive played)
Played this on PS2 back in the mid 2000s.
Speed Demon SpongeBob and the title screen music are the things I remembered the most.
This is an amazing video, thank you for covering this! Subscription well earned.
This game, Tak, Psychonauts, The SpongeBob Movie (The game/ movie itself) was some of the most awesome parts of my childhood, This literally unlocked memories I forgot I had holy shit
I did check the development to see if they had a hand in making my favourite spongebob game from the ps2, the Atlantis game. And they did!. I loved that game as a kid and I am suprised that they are now defunct.
THANK YOU!
I've been trying to remember this game FOR YEARS.
Oh my god, I need to play it again.
I got so excited when I saw you were talking about the Creature from the Krusty Krab and then I got really confused why I don't recognize anything. Turns out the Gameboy version I played in ny childhood was completely different to the other versions. Man I loved the Gameboy version, such nice memories
This game has had a special place in my heart ever since I first saw it back when I wasn't even able to spell creature. Thank you, discount Gigguk, for talking about it, you've made my day
This game was my childhood! I had this on the Wii, it was surreal, unique, had awesome music, cool combat mechanics, and some of the most creative settings/random plots out there! One of the best Wii games I've ever played, the Plankton freeze ray stage was my favorite!
God damn that childhood nostalgia just hit me like a truck, thanks bro 👊
The racing level's ost is unexpectedly good, it kept me playing the whole game
Battle for Bikini Bottom, The Movie Game and Creature from Krusty Crab were a huge part of my childhood. I wish the other 2 would get remaked aswell.
Playing on the GameCube makes me feel relieved. I never got faced any of these issues
FINALLY A VIDEO ON THIS SCARY ASS GAME 😭😭 I remember seeing the cover thinking "this game looks rad!" and turn to the back and see Patrick and Spongebob with the most uncanny distorted faces. Something about them looking so unnaturally angry and insane made me feel scared. Whenever my sisters would play it on the TV I would run out the room❤️😭
I remember mistaking this game for the squarepants movie tie-in, but when I beat this, I beat it through again and again. I loved it.
Easily Better than Battle for Bikini Bottom
If this wasn’t your 2nd vid I would be even more mad about how underrated you are
I remember LOVING this game as a kid! Mostly the Plankton levels but I also remember being confused as heck by that ending, even to this day I don’t know what that ending was…
The pc port was my childhood man, and it *does* have a version that just has the creature name; made it really hard to find as an adult
I never actually finished it, the plankton level was too hard for my simple brain and the second half of Patrick's always got me
holy SHIT bro this unlocked some core fucking memories, I played this game ALL THE TIME on my ps2 seeing this gameplay again is so incredibly nostalgic. Great video I can tell this channel is going to blow up dude.
7:43 I can’t believe I never knew SpongeBob was the inventor of the griddy
I remember getting this game on the Wii as a launch title. Also had it on DS, even though I really didn't like that one. Awesome video, good to see someone talk about a game which few appear to remember.
You got an insta subscription from me when you said that lights, camera, pants was the best one.
Would love more Spongebob game videos from you!!
That game was so good but the diesel dreaming part was so MEMORABLE
Totaly forgot about this Holly wow thank u for unlocking a memory I didn’t knwo I had
I love this game so much! I had this on the Gamecube and I constantly played it over and over again until it was lost. It's such a strange game full of interesting landscapes and designs overall, especially with the thematic loading screens and whole connected dreaming aspect. I would honestly die for a remaster of it since it's probably my second favorite Spongebob game of all time. I also don't think you gave the DS version much credit, it's pretty good despite being very different from the original. It's also far more difficult, especially when you get to the Patrick levels.
Also, to answer your question about the titular "creature" from the Krusty Krab, I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be the krabby patty itself since it has its own strange personality and acts as a sort of final boss. It's also the only reason their weird dreams happened in the first place.
The ending really f's me up man. All 3 of them were sentient and ceased to exist once Gary wakes up lol
Input obligatory intense flashbacks of time with this game now! The Patrick Starfishman levels and vs. Giant Plankton were definitely the best parts of this game! It was the driving and steering that made this game really difficult, I remember I have this game to thank for waking me up from my rose tinted glasses and learning I wasn't good at video games as a kid lmao
Also, off topic but... I just realized you're past 1k, and you only have 2 videos, that's amazing dude!
The musics of this game are absolute bangers.
Seeing the menu screen and the opening cinematic felt like i just played it yesterday i dont know how i remember everything so good
My brother and mom played this game so much when I was younger. We had all the tutorials printed out and everything.
I had the GameCube disk that I played on the Wii, and this game was super eerie for me. There were some levels that had no music, and the ending cutscene had no sound AT ALL. It was like I was playing a liminal game.
Forget my previous comment
7:42 Oh my God he's witerally hitting the gwiddy
"Who hits a clean griddy deep under the sea"
"SPONGE BOB SQUARE PANTS"
Finding this video unlocked a core memory
Me and my brothers childhood game and I have it's intro song stuck in my head forever
I got this game for the Wii because my parents thought it was BFBB. Crazy to see someone cover it.
Im your 50th subscriber qwq I love your content
I have been trying to look for stuff about this game for the longest time and it brings back so many memories
Since I was such a dumb child back then I never really got past level level 3, or prolly even 2, oh god I can remember that Ms. Puff line at the beginning haunting me again, and the dance after every segment too, and Patrick yelling at me in the race, it’s all slowly coming back
I remember playing this on the PS2 when I was young
I STILL don't understand what they were smoking when they made the plot
31:56 Sandy actually is in the game in Plankton’s first level in get treedome
this man reached into one of my childhood fever dreams at 24 years old and said ‘yeah bro this actually happened’
I remember playing this as a kid and ive been trying to remember what it was called. Feels wild to remember this game.
What is the music in the background at around 11:34?
I have so many fond memories of this game. Pretty much my childhood Spongebob game, besides those point & click PC games and Supersponge.
I remember having the Wii version of this game, but never finished it. I swear those door cranks only worked when they felt like it
Had this on the Wii as a spitting child. Never beat the game bc the last race w SpongeBob to get the patty was almost impossible to me. I’d love to buy a Wii and try it all again. Thanks for bringing me some great memories 🥲
Finally someone covered this game i had it for ps2 lost it a while ago wish i still had it such a fun game at the time
Great video, keep up the good work 👍
THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE GAMES OF ALL TIME! I’m so glad to see it’s not just a dream!
Holy shit I’ve been looking for this game for so long. I had vague memories of playing the gba version from when I was like five
The fact that it was so ambitious according to the co founder explains why the GameCube version has various texture and graphical glitches, audio bugs where the audio is either DELAYED or missing in cutscenes…probably should’ve just stuck to developing for PS2 and Wii, the PS2 would still be a good alternate for those who don’t want motion controls.
This game was my childhood the music lives rent free in my head
I got this game off eBay for the PS2, and despite its unusual weirdness, I'd say it lines up quite well with BFBB and the movie game as some of the greatest Spongebob games to be made.
This was my jam back in the day but the worm level and hearing Jellyfish screaming in fear and possibly agony made me feel bad...right before flying away from Plankton and later shooting him.
At least the idle, dialogue animations had more frames than Nicktoons Unite
Here in Mexico there used to be a promotion on some chips bags that included a "toy" called "Tazos" and usually the tazos came branded with a popular cartoon of those times, I remember vividly a line of tazos exclusive with that gritty artstyle... I loved it as a child.
Do lights camera pants next since that's your favorite game anyway also great video
HOLY SHITT THE NOSTALGIA IS FLOWING THROUGH MY ENTIRE BODY
so many memories unlocked
this is sooooo nostalgic, i used to LOVE this game
I’ve been looking for a video on this game for months
RamZaes? Is that you?
i had this on ps2 as a kid, and any time i try to remember the game its just a hazy fever dream memory of spongebob being a crackhead
The theme from the menu ABSOLUTELY BANGS 😎😎😎😎
Yeah this game rules, I played it recently and it still holds up to this day ❤
16:1 god that stone sliding sound effect is just perfect
Dude, Creature from the Krusty Krab DEFINED me & my brother's childhood. It was one of the many first few games we played when we got our PS2.
I remember always seeing an ad for this game in a DVD of Atlantis Squarepantis
I FORGOT ABOUT THIS GAME AND I LIKED IT A LOT :))) LOVED THE VIDEO!
I remember the gritty SpongeBob appearing on "tazos" and i think the designs are cool and unhinged
They were called SpongeBob Turbo
