The funniest part of all this is that someone at THQ Nordic had to have seen Canned Coochie or Squidward Busts a Nut and thought ‘yes, this man needs a review copy’
The Golden Spatulas seem to just act like the Pirate Treasures from Yooka-Laylee. They serve absolutely no purpose but are hidden in more obscure locations to incentivize achievements and 100% completion
In the movie game, there was a skill tree where you could unlock/upgrade your abilities. I feel like this was something this game could use to encourage collecting.
Yeah. A lot of people rave about BFBB (which I mostly agree with, I think the game is great). But I think the spongebob movie game was equally as fun thanks to some really well designed levels, and yeah, the levelling up of abilities. :)
@Nrvnqsr Enjoyer RyugoiJAE I've played the Incredibles game as well. Although I never actually managed to beat it cause I found it too hard? Which is surprising for a kids game.
@@harleykf1 I remember getting stuck in the Plantopolis level for weeks all because I didn’t know that my Karate attack could deflect projectiles. Oh and King Netptune gave me a lot of trouble
@@rumblebird9888 Damn that sucks. I think the first time I played the game I got stuck on the Now That We're Men level (hard to remember if that was the level) because I got lost haha. But yeah, the final boss is certainly not easy. Well, a lot of the game isn't.
THQ Nordic was smart to work with Uncle Al here, only RUclipsr I watch who's reviewed it, it feels exactly like Uncle Al should, THQ didn't restrict him or anything, even with some references to the [redacted] episode. It helped reach the adult and teen leaning demographic. I think companies should be less stuck-up about a squeaky clean image but that's a whole other conversation.
This video was wonderful and filled with charm, much like the game. I loved the Patrick balloon and felt like he had some stellar jokes in this one that made me laugh hard.
I'm so glad Uncle Al is making new awesome stuff again!!! Always happy to see more from such a hilarious character. Keep being amazing! Your videos are always worth the wait!
The real question is: Is Cosmic Shake a sequel to Battle for Bikini Bottom, a sequel to The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie game (which was a direct sequel to BfBB made by the same developers), or a sequel to SpongeBob's Truth or Square (which was the last SpongeBob game released in this style before Rehydrated)?
3:43 As a note, the Golden Spatulas are really just progress toward an achievement where you're meant to find the "secret" in every level, the Spatulas being those secrets. That is about their only reason for being
Honestly wasn’t expecting this to be this good of a unbiased review from uncle al most people feels like they are very careful so they don’t lose possible partners ships but this was very well done. Also one thing that I would like to add that wasn’t mention that Ik a lot people don’t love, but they are patching a lot of the speedrun routes which has a huge big following for these spongebob games and I understand it if it completely breaks the game but this a lot that I have seen patched we’re not game breaking at all so kinda disappointed by that but also looking on the positive side of this smaller problem they pay attention to the game and possible problems it may have.
For any fans of the original Battle for Bikini Bottom, you should check out The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie game which already was sort of a sequel / spiritual successor to BB and I never hear anyone mention how great it was, even tho it was developed by the same team as BfBB.
Movie game was great. I just didn't like how you'd get forced to do certain minigames after a certain point but still solid. I prefer the "open world" of BfBB more tho
I am interested in this game more so than BFBB Rehydrated; I enjoyed it, but it felt like they could have done more. Other than that, I'm so happy for Clancy Brown reprising his role as Mr. Krabs; he's one of my favorite VAs, and I was introduced to him in the original Spyro the Dragon!
From the look of things, It sounds kinda like it's spongebobs equivalent of Phineas and Ferb: Across the 2nd Dimension (The video game). Which is a game I really like.
So glad to hear. And yes that would be nice to see more videos like these on here to, but on the other channel thats fine to. When you speak about games that you really enjoy, it feels refreshing and somewhat nostalgic. Always a pleasure to hear
Amazing review Al! I might need to buy this when it fully comes out since I loved bfbb, and I would also like that roll button back THQ PLEASE ADD IT BACK
Honestly, I would be SO happy if this developer also remade a whole bunch of other Ironhead studios games. One prime example being Scooby-Doo: Night of 100 frights. I fucking love that game!
A Spongebob RPG would be an interesting idea, though the "open world" thing sounds vague. Not sure if you're talking about Witcher 3 which is open world but still has progression and some locked areas for the sake of game structure, or Breath of the wild style open world where there is no structure at all, or "open world" as in just wide explorable levels like Mario Odyssey, so still linear but with exploration in the areas. The third one sounds the best to me.
Imagine a Mario & luigi rpg inspired SpongeBob game, I can see it now one of SpongeBob and Patrick could be blowing bubbles with hot Sauce like that one episode
@@rebelmariobros6249 Really now...well those people deserve a high paid raise cause they have created an masterpiece of my favorite childhood character😘
Phew you know for a while I thought that this channel was over, am I ever glad that we as a community will be able to continue with the hilarious RUclips channel that is Uncle Al.
The only bad thing about the game is that we didn’t had a plankton world. Actually, I had this crazy idea on a dream I had where SpongeBob goes into Planktopolis from the movie where our plankton basically ursurped the plankton of that dimension as the new leader and now he must team up with a resistance consisting of sandy, mermaid man, barnacle boy and that mermaid i forgot its name to get into the Krusty Krab 2 and save Mr. Krabs and our plankton, where the final boss would it be a giant cyborg plankton which was the result of our plankton having the idea of turning his twin into a giant cyborg slave, but he didn’t thought it would retain its free will. But of course, to make a great homage to the movie, our plankton discovered the great weakness to bucket heads is high sonar frequencies so he uses some science stuff to transform SpongeBob into goofy goober rock
Would love to watch you do a Let's Play of Battle for Bikini Bottom! Or Cosmic Shake if you'd play it again on the gaming channel! Loved this style of videos, even if you went back to review old games that people may have forgotten about. Like Revenge of the Flying Dutchman! I haven't thought about that game in forever but I still always think about music and songs from that game Hope to see more funny ha ha SpongeBob stuff this year on the channel!
Its fitting that Spongebob and Patrick are the ones to take this cursed curse. Anyone else would have understood that the only proper response to a Gypsy woman is an anglo-curb-stomp.
Bro I love SpongeBob, I literally grew up on it and I was reasonably surprised when I learned that my ex had never even watched it and still has not to this day, that I know of
I really hope this game does well. I’d love to see Purple Lamp remaster the other Heavy Iron Studios SpongeBob Games. Truth or Square and the Movie Game are both criminally underrated.
I’ve played Cosmic Shake for about 3 hours (still on the pirate beach level because I’m a dumb baby casual gamer lol) and so far, imo, it has some of the best writing and character dialogue since Season 10. It really brings me back to being a young hardcore Spongeboy fanbob back in the early to mid 2000s.
Im surprised that this games didn't get a current gen version i guess it was in development for a long time and the developers didn't get a Ps5 dev kit.
I haven't played this yet. I would love to pick up sometime because it actually looks really fun! I hope that The SpongeBob Squarepants: The Movie: The Video game gets a remake as well. That game also deserves a second chance as well like BFBB.
I pirated it to try it out and not gonna lie I actually really like it, I'm going to buy it because it actually feels like a finished, good game unlike a lot of stuff that comes out these days
3:38 the Golden Spatulas are for an award/achievement "SpongeLock HolmesPants - Find the secret in every level" which you can check your total in the Awards menu
@@bigboybeni Agreed. I get that people prefer older stuff, but that doesn't mean all thats old is gold *Coughs in Shark boy and Lava Girl CGI* If the newer generation can enjoy their shows just as much as we did, then I see no problem
@@ShadowSkins yeah imagine being so egotistical that you don’t want kids to enjoy their own shows just because they’re not the same as 20 or so years ago. lame asf
@@bigboybeni It sucks, but it's the world we live in and we have to be as welcoming and unbiased to people's preferences if we want them to feel comfortable about joining communities or sharing ideas about shows or movies
I love Battle for Bikini Bottom and I'm definitely picking this one up! Love the review and your review is definitely better than the review IGN posted...

How would you guys feel if I did more videos like this on this channel? Let me know!
Really love you talking about the things you love, and you talking about the gameplay with a deep passionate heart. Keep it up!
Loved the video, would love more like it
I like it! Your humor is good and it’s nice to hear you talking about something you like!
First video i ever see from you, and i like it.
I'd appreciate that!
The funniest part of all this is that someone at THQ Nordic had to have seen Canned Coochie or Squidward Busts a Nut and thought ‘yes, this man needs a review copy’
That’s what I was thinking 😂😂
Squidward makes a meme
He sent THQ some canned coochie
Uncle Al: Creates the Coochieverse
THQ Nordic: This is the perfect man to promo our game
They were right, weren't they?
The best part about cosmic shake is the MrKrabs in this game actually sounds like MrKrabs from the show unlike the MrKrabs from Bobb remake
He didn't sound like Mr Krabs in the OG either
Thats because they pretty much reused the same voice lines from the original.
and that is literally the only thing cosmic shake has going for it.
I rated your comment
Chain-smoking Krabs is iconic fight me
I really wish we would get an "open worldish" Spongebob Game, like Revenge of the Flying Doucheman, but actually good
It’s pretty open worldish from what I’ve played but could be more.

More of a spiritual successor rather than a direct sequel to any one game really.
It's definitely not a sequel to the SpongeBob SquarePants Movie Game, because that game is a movie tie-in game.
@@plilly0709 And they're all TV tie-ins, so that's irrelevant.
@@gnbman Not it's not. Those SpongeBob games you listed are not canon to each other. The one that are canon are BFBB and Cosmic Shake.

Truly the Bob of all sponges
I’m kinda not used to hearing Al talking normally
The irony for me is that before this video started I got an ad for SpongeBob SquarePants: Cosmic Shake.
Me too.
Same, just now. 😂
SpongeBob’s voice is taking a toll on Tom Kenny’s vocal chords.
Uncle Al sounds a lot like Peter Griffin would have sounded in his prime
Honestly wasn’t expecting this to be this good of a unbiased review from uncle al most people feels like they are very careful so they don’t lose possible partners ships but this was very well done.

6:09 that image that doesn't even last a second just murdered me
0:21 i remember seeing this at a toys r us in like 2014
As a Spongebob fan and gaming completionist myself, I can't wait to play this game. Glad to hear the positive reception
as a fan of a hat in time, seeing the gameplay reminds me of it. Might enjoy this one.
never heard of this thing and soon as i clicked the video i got a ad for it.
I never expected that you’d make a video like this, but please make more of them! This was super entertaining and had some nice silly comedy in it.
I didn’t get the title until I literally got an ad for it on this video
For any fans of the original Battle for Bikini Bottom, you should check out The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie game which already was sort of a sequel / spiritual successor to BB and I never hear anyone mention how great it was, even tho it was developed by the same team as BfBB.
Having played the movie game, I would recommend it. Creature From The Krusty Krab is an interesting time too
@@JargonMadjin same as me.
Because it's worse and has some lame forced grinding in minigamrs
@@thatitalianlameguy2235 you didn’t play those games anyway.
Movie game was great. I just didn't like how you'd get forced to do certain minigames after a certain point but still solid. I prefer the "open world" of BfBB more tho

Other than that, I'm so happy for Clancy Brown reprising his role as Mr. Krabs; he's one of my favorite VAs, and I was introduced to him in the original Spyro the Dragon!

Such an awesome video man! Completely hilarious from beginning to end , I can't wait to see more gaming videos in the future!
Wow uncle Al’s channel has finally gone full circle
First Game Reviews Then Imitation Shitposts and now back to game reviews
This is a great review, Al! I'm all for videos like this where you just talk about stuff you want to (reviews, your game, etc.) than just memes.
Honestly, I would be SO happy if this developer also remade a whole bunch of other Ironhead studios games. One prime example being Scooby-Doo: Night of 100 frights. I fucking love that game!
i wasnt sure about picking this game up but You sold me on it, good video, it was a weird change of pace to see you do game reviews.
Imagine an open world RPG game set in the spongebob cinematic universe
A Spongebob RPG would be an interesting idea, though the "open world" thing sounds vague.

2:04 Hello, Madame Kassussy

1 view, 35 likes. Yeah. That's how logic works.
Yeah that’s RUclips for you
I loved the ending music. THAT WAS AMAZING
I'm going to miss you doing those short videos of your voice impressions. Also, I kind of like purple lamps' models better than Heavy Iron's Models.
Wait he's stopping?
Al, I'm playing it right now. I love it.
I'm honestly really glad this game is that good, I feel like it ups the ante for licensed games.
THEY ACTUALLY MADE PATRICK FUNNY
This game was like Crash 4 if it were Spongebob themed. It was a blast and I'm glad it exists.
i got an ad for Cosmic Shake before this video and i was so fucking confused lmaooo
The golden spatulas only give you an achievement.
The Golden Spatulas are only worth it if you want to collect the award “Sherbob Holmes”
I'm very picky about the games I buy but this game looks like a real winner for me! Thanks Al and hello from Texas!
Love to see Purple Lamp make a bounceback!
Def hoping on a Movie Game remake tho
I love that it's a crossover with itself!
I would not mind seeing more videos like this, was actually wondering how this game was received and if it held up to the other titles!

I've heard differently. Apparently they ruined Patrick's character and made him a jerk and the show is just more mean spirited instead of funny.
Golden Spatulas seem to be a part of the Award/Trophy/Achievement where you find all the secrets in all levels, which are those Spatulas.
