DoodlePants

DoodlePants is the title given to the player's character in Drawn to Life: SpongeBob SquarePants Edition. DoodlePants is drawn by the Spongebob after DoodleBob is revived, and DoodlePants must travel through the game's five worlds to stop him and the Doodle Dudes from scribbling all over Bikini Bottom and beyond.
Much like the main Drawn to Life hero, DoodlePants can run, jump and punch their way through the stages. However, they're also able to equip powerups and get assistance from helpers activated via the Touch Screen. In every level, DoodleBob must erase the Doodle Scribble spread throughout the stage and rescue at least one hidden Bikini Bottom resident.
== Appearance ==
DoodlePants isn't depicted with a specific design in the official artwork, as their design is determined by the player. Like the Hero, they have a typical bone structure - a head, two arms, a torso and two legs - although none of them can be altered. DoodlePants is roughly as tall as most Bikini Bottom residents, and is taller than most enemies. DoodlePants has 12 templates to choose from, the smallest amount in the series.
==Powerups ==
Powerups are a feature exclusive to Drawn to Life: SpongeBob SquarePants Edition, and are retrieved in certain levels where they can also be designed by the player. There are 11 powerups in total, none of which have a drawn template. All of these can be purchased at the Krusty Krab upon being unlocked. All but the Suits have a time limit.
=== Karate Glove ===
The Karate Glove increases the strength of DoodlePants' punch, making it easier to defeat enemies and making Karate Glove-marked boxes breakable.
=== Helmet ===
The Helmet protects DoodlePants' head, rendering their top half invincible against enemies and ceiling spikes.
=== Bubble Blower ===
The Bubble Blower shoots bubbles in a rising arc, acting as a projectile for enemies and boxes.
=== Jellyfish Net ===
The Jellyfish Net acts as both a melee weapon against enemies and a net for catching projectiles.
=== Spike Shoes ===
The Spike Shoes protect DoodlePants from floor spikes, and make enemies more vulnerable to stomping.
=== Hopping Shoes ===
The Hopping Shoes cause DoodlePants to constantly hop around, making their jump higher and Hopping Shoes-marked boxes breakable.
=== Feather Hat ===
The Feather Hat slows DoodlePants' fall for a brief moment after a jump, causing them to glide before dropping at normal speed.
=== Ninja Shoes ===
The Ninja Shoes cause DoodlePants to run faster and wall jump, making it easier to reach far-off places.
=== Ninja Mask ===
The Ninja Mask allows DoodlePants to hide from enemies by crouching, making them briefly invincible in this position.
=== Super Hero Suit ===
The Super Hero Suit allows DoodlePants to double jump and throw projectiles, as well as glide after jumping like the Feather Hat. This powerup is required to complete the Doodle Revenge boss stage.
=== Ninja Suit ===
The Ninja Suit combines the Karate Glove, Ninja Shoes and Ninja Mask, making DoodlePants stronger and more agile. This powerup is required to complete the Note World bonus stage.
=== Magic Pencil ===
The Magic Pencil is used exclusively in the third and final battle against DoodleBob, Asteroid Battle. DoodlePants uses the eraser on the back to whack DoodleBob and his spawned clones until the Doodle Scribble he's coated with is erased and he is eventually defeated.
== Helpers==
Helpers is a feature exclusive to Drawn to Life: SpongeBob SquarePants Edition. After Squidward joins the group, the player must choose one of three characters - SpongeBob, Patrick and Squidward - to go with them in each level. Upon hitting the X button, the player can activate the helper move with the touch screen.
=== SpongeBob ===
SpongeBob can create a square barrier around DoodlePants to shield them for a brief period of time, and break SpongeBob-marked boxes.
=== Patrick ===
Patrick can attack enemies in a path drawn on the touch screen, and break Patrick-marked boxes.
=== Squidward ===
Squidward can blast musical notes out from his clarinet to attack nearby enemies, and break Squidward-marked boxes.
== Story==
After Patrick accidentally redraws DoodleBob back into existence and he steals one of the Magic Pencils, SpongeBob gets the idea to draw a hero to stop him using the second Pencil. DoodlePants is then bought to life, and SpongeBob looks at them in awe before being captured by Doodle Dudes, right as Patrick gets distracted by a jellyfish. After SpongeBob is rescued, the trio observe the damage made to Bikini Bottom and run into Squidward, who joins them to get his stolen clarinet back. After Squidward joins them and DoodlePants picks one of three helpers, they set out to rescue the citizens. The first one saved is Mr. Krabs, who reopens the Krusty Krab and acts as the in-game shopkeeper for the remainder of the game. Upon reaching Doodled Tower, the group runs into DoodleBob, and Squidward demands his clarinet gets given back. SpongeBob suggests DoodlePants speaks to him in Doodle Language, which ends up failing as DoodleBob escapes with a rocket and submarine, leaving the Doodled boss in his wake.
Upon Doodled's defeat, the group notice footsteps leading to The Jungle, and head straight there. They eventually come across a drawn pyramid, which turned out to be DoodleBob's hiding spot. DoodlePants engages in a fight with him and wins, leading to DoodleBob escaping again as Patrick is distracted. After realizing he would've either escaped to the Deep Sea and the Moon, Squidward suggests they go to the former. After reaching Dutchman Deck, the Flying Dutchman appears and accuses the group of taking over his ship. It's revealed that Doodle Patrick, an intelligent caricature of Patrick, had tricked the Dutchman and is behind the takeover. After Patrick mistakenly reveals that he drew DoodleBob back to life, the Dutchman tasks DoodlePants with ridding the ship of the invading Doodle Dudes. After accomplishing this, the group finally convinces the Dutchman that he had been tricked, and Doodle Patrick begins to fight DoodlePants, only to be erased upon his defeat.
The Dutchman thanks the group and bids them farewell, and they head back to Bikini Bottom. Sandy approaches them and gives her thanks for rescuing her in Below Deck, and SpongeBob asks if they could borrow her rocket to go to the moon. After she says no due to what happened last time, they draw a new rocket instead after she suggests it. The group arrive at Bikini Doodle, a sketched Bikini Bottom drawn by DoodleBob on the moon, and they run into him once more. After his second defeat and Squidward gets his clarinet back, he flees in his rocket, and DoodlePants flies after him. They battle one last time on a nearby asteroid, where DoodleBob is finally beaten after DoodlePants uses the Magic Pencil on him. DoodleBob's mean face is replaced with a much happier one, and DoodlePants resides in Bikini Doodle to keep him company as SpongeBob, Patrick and Squidward bid them farewell.
