## Early Stages

A lot of things built up to the creation of Yoshibyte's Spongebob Squarepants.

* In May of 2020, Yoshibyte started to make 2 skits in Garry's Mod and posted them onto TikTok.
* In Late 2020, Yoshibyte made short storylines in Microsoft 3D Movie Maker for Windows 95, even featuring Spongebob in some of them. They however where never uploaded anywhere.
* In Early 2021, Yoshibyte joined the Homebrew Boyz and even helped out when it went public, meeting all of the actors featured in Yoshibyte's Spongebob (Drip Tarts and NDS first, later Nixuge and Coby)
* In May of 2021, Yoshibyte created another 3D Movie Maker short but it was actually uploaded to YouTube, featuring Spongebob as one of the main characters. The voice for Spongebob is also somewhat present.
* In December 2021, Yoshibyte and Drip Tarts made 3D Movie Maker shorts together, not featuring the Yoshibyte's Spongebob voice however. This helped Yoshibyte learn the skills of script creating
* Nixuge created DaPatrick in January 2022, which was a short lived series where Patrick and Spongebob do shit. It is not directly related to Yoshibyte's Spongebob as Yoshibyte had no help in making it.
* In Early January 2022, Yoshibyte, Drip Tarts created a short in Garry's Mod where Spongebob meets Mario and Mario dies. It was uploaded to the Homebrew Boyz YouTube channel 28 days before Yoshibyte's Spongebob Squarepants launched.
* Yoshibyte and Nixuge launched Yoshibyte's Spongebob on Feburary 4th, 2022.

## Development

Yoshibyte's Spongebob was conceived in under 7 hours. Yoshibyte and Nixuge were staying home from school on **Friday February 4, 2022**, and decided to make a video in Garry's Mod, where Yoshibyte suggested making their own fan made episodes of Spongebob. They both agreed and Mr. Krabs Goes To Jail was created. The episode was created "on the fly" meaning there was absolutely no planning and no script besides the basic premise of "Mr. Krabs Goes To Jail."

## Releases

On **Friday, February 4, 2022** "Mr. Krabs Goes To Jail" was released. Yoshibyte used his knowledge of creating Spongebob like videos from an unreleased video of his. The video was uploaded that same very day and thus, began a series where Yoshibyte would focus a lot of his time on. On **Saturday February 4, 2023** a remake of the episode was released to celebrate the 1 year anniversary of the series.

Just 2 days later on **Sunday February 6, 2022** Yoshibyte called upon the help of Drip Tarts and Anonymous to create "Mr. Krabs Goes to Jail Again..." this time was different however, as there was now a script to go by. Drip Tarts replaced Nixuge's role as Patrick and Drip Tarts has been Patrick ever since. The episode was also released on the same day it was recorded.

On **Sunday February 20, 2022** the episode "Spongebob and Patrick become E-Girls" was released and was produced under the same environment as the last episode as in following a script. Casual NDS was added as an actor and played Mr. Karbs and Plankton. It also saw the introduction of Senator Armstrong, who is a main side character in the series. It was released a day after it was recorded.

On **Saturday March 12, 2022**, the first Breaking Bottom was released. By this point, all the episodes were following scripts. Breaking Bottom 1 is considered the best episode the team has ever made. Breaking Bottom revolves around the idea of Mr. Krabs being a meth dealer with Patrick. Obviously the episode was inspired by Breaking Bad. Breaking Bottom was a big turning point for Yoshibyte's Spongebob Squarepants as it finally worked out the kinks with the old episodes, the Nick screen bug was always there in episodes 1-3. Yoshibyte stated "The screen bug was there because these were originally intended to be lost episodes that were ""accidentally"" aired on Nickelodeon." But the screenbug was removed in Breaking Bottom 1. Casual NDS replaced Nixuge's role as Mr. Krabs after Yoshibyte was impressed by NDS' interpretation of Mr. Krabs. Coby was also introduced to the series for the first time! This marked the finalized show cast (besides 1 more change in an upcoming episode). Coby plays Squidward and Larry and has ever since then. However, audio issues plagued the episode. With Spongebob being very quiet. On **Sunday March 5, 2023**, A remake was released to make a definitive version of Breaking Bottom without the audio issues. The episode is the team's favorite and was "the best one to record including its remake." Needless to say, Breaking Bottom is the best episode of Yoshibyte's Spongebob Squarepants as of its release.

On **Saturday March 26, 2022**, Breaking Bottom 2 was released. After the success of Breaking Bottom, the team wanted to expand on that concept. This episode revolves mostly around Mr. Krabs, instead of all characters like in the last 4 episodes. Mr. Krabs gets thrown in prison after the events of Breaking Bottom 1. Mr. Krabs eventually escapes and creates a world with Mr. Leans and Mr. Karbs. It eventually burns down and after a high speed chase with Spongebob, they all crash and die. This has been stated by the team to be "the most boring episode ever" as by this point the team was starting to get burnt out by constantly coming up with new ideas for Yoshibyte's Spongebob and even The Krusty Krab Show. The team would stop making the series after Breaking Bottom 2 released.

On **Sunday October 16, 2022**. The series would show life again by Yoshibyte uploading the entire first season into one video file on YouTube. The series was also given the name "Yoshibyte's Spongebob Squarepants"

On **Saturday October 22 2022**. A new episode was teased showing the return of the series. Using music from Super Mario Galaxy. Trailer here.

On **Wednesday October 26, 2022**. "Spongebob and Patrick Go to The Backrooms." This marked the return of the series after 7 months of inactivity. This episode revolves around the idea of Spongebob and Patrick being sent to the backrooms and encountering the many challenges that await them there. The episode brought the return of all the cast, including Larry. The Backrooms Monster character was also introduced. The team states this is their 2nd favorite episode. The episode also began Season 2. It also started a trend of 10 minute long episodes as the previous episodes were only 4 to 7 minutes.

On **Saturday November 26, 2022**, a short titled "Spongebob's game store" was released. This marked the beginning of the shorts, which are episodes with a runtime of under 4 minuets. This short revolves Spongebob who runs a retro game store, after a guy comes in and steals some consoles, they eventually catch him.

On **Saturday December 17, 2022**, "A Very Spoag Boh Shitmas" was released as a special episode. The episode was made just in time for Christmas. Nixuge returned and now played the role of Plankton which was previously held by NDS. The episode revolves around the Bikini Bottom holiday, Shitmas. Plankton tries to ruin Spongebob's Shitmas by getting Patrick to give him terrible gifts. The plan ultimately doesn't work.

On **February 28, 2023**, the F.U.N. episode was released. This episode revolves around Spongebob and Plankton selling drugs. Plankton is killed after Pepsiman did not like the drugs because they were "really really bad." This episode went back to the original style of recording as it was done with no script and was only done with 2 actors, Yoshibyte and Nixuge. This was done to get episodes out faster, as now, there were pretty long gaps in between episodes.

On **Sunday March 19, 2023**, "Spongebob Cheats on His Boating Exam." was released. This episode revolves the idea of Spongebob using ChatGPT to cheat on his boating exam, he then realizes that cheating is bad and doesn't cheat on it again. The episode was actually written by ChapGPT. The episode also only features 1 actor, Yoshibyte, which is a first in the series. The episode was made to make room for the next episode

On **May 31, 2023**, "Brown Mist" was released. This episode was made with absolutely no script and is the most advanced episode of Season 2. The story comprises of Squidward failing his talent show, and because someone took a shit on the floor when Squidward played, he was infected with the Brown Mist. Squidward goes and starts infecting people with it by pooping in the krabby patties. Spongebob and Patrick then assist the help of DJ Khaled to try to save Squidward from it. However in the attempt, Spongebob gets infected by it too. In a rush effort, DJ Khaled tells Patrick to piss on Squidward to stop the Brown Mist and Patrick Succeeds. Leaving the Brown Mist over with. This episode introduced 3 new characters, Mario, Drake, and DJ Khaled. It also introduced new visual and audio effects.

In September 2023. Season 3 is expected to start. More shorts could be released in the months between April and September.

## Future

Yoshibyte announced on February 22nd, 2023 that he will be creating a new show. No further information was given. Yoshibyte said that many series were in the works. While he was asked, he said 3 shows were cancelled, Yoshibyte's Rocko's Modern Life, Yoshibyte's Super Mario Bros, and Yoshibyte's Sonic The Hedgehog. These shows were declined mainly cause of how hard it would be to make them. Yoshibyte's Spongebob Squarepants already takes a lot of effort as of late, with episodes being delayed constantly. Plans are still being discussed for another series however, and Yoshibyte wants to make a new show to come out alongside new episodes of Yoshibyte's Spongebob Squarepants, just not as frequently.

Yoshibyte has stated that he intends Yoshibyte's Spongebob Squarepants to run for 5 seasons as of right now. The series will end with Season 5 Episode 5 and is predicted to be released in late 2024-early 2025. He also intends to if he is interested, coming back to the series after it has ended. Yoshibyte will not be giving up on the series after 2025. As he states in this very same wiki article "There's probably gonna be a point in time where I would like to come back to the series, I don't see myself abandoning the series forever, but it will have to stop because by the time 2025 rolls around, I'll be 19 years old, and probably won't have time to work on episodes. I intend to end the series with a banger episode or even movie, go for a couple years, then come back. We will just have to see. But my 16 year old dumbass can dream." Yoshibyte has also stated before that the "Breaking Bottom" mini series will end in season 5, and might be the last episode, but that's so far away, it can be hard to confirm that.

## The Successor

On July 10th, 2023, Yoshibyte made a community post with the caption "New show 👀" however he gave no details. The post flew under the radar, as it wasn't announced anywhere. Meanwhile, Yoshibyte and Brae353 were in a Discord VC with Franklin and the topic of Sonic came up, this is during a time where Yoshibyte was interested in the Sonic The Hedgehog franchise. Brae353 and Yoshibyte joked about the idea about making a Sonic show, after expressing their love for the Lowbrow series "Sonic For Hire" and also their love for "The Sonic and Knuckles Show". That very night, they actually put the show into production, and the show is set to launch in August 2023.

## Interesting things

During March - April 2023. The biggest episode yet, the multiverse episode, was set to be filmed, the main idea of the episode was to expand the lore and world of Yoshibyte's Spongebob, and to hopefully make a gateway to another show, however plans did fall through, and as of right now, the multiverse episode is set to be the season 3 finale instead of the season 2 finale. However, a couple scenes and a intro was finished, here is a link to the intro on YouTube

## Format

Yoshibyte's Spongebob Squarepants is displayed in **1080p 16:9** in every single episode (**F.U.N. episode is exception**, as it was displayed in **4K UHD**).

**Throughout the entirety of Season 1**, the frame-rate was capped at **29.9FPS**. However, the episodes were recorded in **59.9 FPS**, so the frame-rate is lowered, which makes the video worse and kinda smeary. **Anything displayed in 4:3 like time cards would be left in a stretched 16:9 aspect ratio.**

**Starting in Season 2**, the frame-rate changed from **29.9 FPS** to **59.9FPS**. The resolution was left unchanged. **These new changes affect the remakes of the episodes.**

**A test with the F.U.N. episode** was conducted to see if Yoshibyte's Spongebob **could warrant a 4K upgrade**. It was decided after it was released to go back to the **1080p standard** after uploads took **a considerable amount of time longer** and it didn't look much better than 1080p**. The Complete Season 2 video does NOT display this episode in 4K.**

**In Season 3, new rules have been put in place regarding 4:3 content like time cards.** If title cards are displayed in 4:3, they are set to be **zoomed in to fit a 16:9 aspect ratio unless a specific reason is given to leave thee aspect ration in 4:3** (Example: Restaurant Krusty Training Video). For title cards, if they are made for a 4:3 ratio, **they should be left in that original ratio instead of stretching the image out.**
