Line #1 VideoGame/VsSpong


1	[[https://gamebanana.com/mods/45481 Vs. Spong]] was a ''VideoGame/FridayNightFunkin'' GameMod, based off the popular kids show ''WesternAnimation/SpongebobSquarepants''... Kind of. Well... uh... that's not [=SpongeBob=] per se, it's hard to explain. But whatever Spong is, he isn't [=SpongeBob=].
2
3	A remaster was planned, but it was cancelled and instead released as an unfinished build.
4
5	----
6	!!Examples from the original mod:
7
8	* AllLowercaseLetters / NoPunctuationIsFunnier: Most of Spong's dialogue is this.
9	* CallBack: The cutscene for Spong's transformation in Pineappled looks similar to what happens to Senpai in the base game.
10	* TheCameo: Spong has a rare chance to appear in the main menu of [[VideoGame/LiterallyEveryFNFModEver Bob's Onslaught]].
11	* ConfrontingYourImpostor: "Abrasive" has the ''real'' [=SpongeBob=] confront the fake one. He makes the mistake of lampshading it, prompting Spong to make the [[VideoGame/AmongUs obvious reference]].
12	* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Spong's first words to Boyfriend.
13	-->'''Spong:''' who the [[PrecisionFStrike fuck]] are you\
14	'''Boyfriend:''' Im Boyfriend Who The Fuck Are You
15	* EvilTwin: Spong is this to [=SpongeBob=], being significantly ruder and more foul-mouthed but otherwise looking identical.
16	* InterfaceScrew: In "Pinappled", first the arrows are spinning wildly, then the strum line starts spinning, then the screen starts rapidly zooming in and out.
17	* PatterSong: Literally EVERY song, ESPECIALLY Pineappled.
18	* PrecisionFStrike: One courtesy of '''[=SpongeBob=]''', of all characters, in Abrasive:
19	-->'''[=SpongeBob=]:''' Uhh... shit.
20	* SensoryAbuse: Spong's form in Pineappled is.... rather hard to describe, to say the least.
21	* ShoutOut:
22	** The music that originally played in the cutscene before Pineappled was an edited version of the classic Roblox horror music, before it was changed.
23	** In the beginning of Abrasive, Spong tries to sing part of [[VideoGame/AmongUs Among Us in Real Life]] before getting interrupted by [=SpongeBob=].
24	* SirSwearsALot: Spong tends to say the F-word a lot.
25	* StylisticSuck: The mod doesn't take itself seriously at all. Spong (at least before the remaster) is literally an edited Google image of [=SpongeBob=], and the charts are full of spam.
26	* SuddenlyVoiced:
27	** PlayedForLaughs in Abrasive, which gives us this gem:
28	-->'''[=SpongeBob=]:''' Now that's music... or something like tha-\
29	'''Spong:''' [[VideoGame/AmongUs Among Us in real life sus, sus. Among Us in real life sus, sus. Playing Among Us in-]]\
30	'''[=SpongeBob=]:''' Gotcha- woah!
31	* SurprisinglyCreepyMoment: Spong's dialogue in newer versions of Pineappled is...creepy, to say the least.
32	-->'''Spong:''' NEPTUNE HAS BETRAYED US\
33	'''Spong:''' HES TRAPPED US IN A WATERY GRAVE WE CANNOT LEAVE\
34	'''Spong:''' WE CANT BREATHE\
35	'''Spong:''' WE CANT BREATHE\
36	'''Spong:''' WE CANT BREATHE\
37	'''Spong:''' [[BrokenRecord WE CANT BREATHE]]\
38	'''Spong:''' [[MadnessMantra WE CANT BREATHE]]
39	* TurnsRed: Spong seems to transform into... '''Something''' before "Pineappled" begins. [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] in the old dialogue for Pineappled.
40	-->'''Spong:''' LOOK\
41	'''Spong:''' [[LampshadeHanging I TRANSFORMED IN THE]] [[LastSecondWordSwap THwaitFOURTH]] [[LampshadeHanging SONG]]\
42	''Spong laughs for a while''\
43	'''Spong:''' [[MajorInjuryUnderreaction Ow]].
44	* UncommonTime: The music for the Pineappled cutscene has a BPM of ''[[ExaggeratedTrope 39.5759411502]]'', and the old version of the music for that same cutscene has a BPM of 120.962.
45	* UnwinnableJokeGame: Pineappled, given its sheer note count and countless {{Interface Screw}}s, is next to unbeatable.
46	* WhamShot: [=SpongeBob=]'s appearance in "Abrasive", which reveals that Spong is a separate character from [=SpongeBob=].
47
48	!!Examples from the unfinished remaster:
49	* AdaptationalBadass: [=SpongeBob=] manages to get in some singing of his own in the remastered "Abrasive", rather than being overpowered throughout the whole thing.
50	* AdaptationalJerkass: Spong's unused dialogue in the remaster is even cruder than in the original, dropping [[ClusterFBomb Cluster F-Bombs]] and yelling out more [[{{Pun}} abrasive]] things than before when [=SpongeBob=] confronts him.
51	* AdaptedOut:
52	** Girlfriend is nowhere to be seen in the remaster.
53	** Downplayed with "Pineappled." It was replaced entirely in the remaster, with its role being taken by "Serpent," although part of it is heard in "Born."
54	* {{Angrish}}: Spong's unused dialogue for "Abrasive" mostly consists of this, because of Spongebob trying to steal the mic back.
55	* ArtEvolution: As is to be expected from a remaster. Spong and [=SpongeBob=]'s designs have been updated to original drawings with proper animations instead of stock photos, and Spong's appearance in "Serpent" is a lot more coherent than the mess in "Pineappled".
56	* ArtShift: Not only are the sprites in "Bibulus" drawn in the style of VideoGame/{{Undertale}}, but the entire song is from Boyfriend's POV.
57	* BreakingTheFourthWall: In the unused dialogue for "Abrasive", Boyfriend credits the person behind the updated vocals in a CoughSnarkCough line.
58	-->'''Boyfriend:''' cough cough cough cough new abrasive vocals by st4r cough cough dies of lung cancer\
59	'''Spong:''' [[FlatWhat what]]
60	* DarkerAndEdgier: Spong's [[SurprisinglyCreepyMoment final phase transformation]] is taken more seriously in the remaster, being given a coherent design resembling a PerversePuppet instead of a glitching mess of images, a proper song with a frantic melody and [[EvilSoundsRaspy rasping vocals]], and a hint at possible lore involving [[EscapedFromTheLab a lab of some sort.]] That's not even getting into [[WhamEpisode the revelations in "Born" about Spong's origin]]...
61	* DemBones: Downplayed. The unused character "Billy" is a diagram of a female human (despite being male) with a skull for a head.
62	* InterfaceScrew: Strangely [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]] in "Pineappled" When accessed in the remaster, for some reason, none of the interface screw it had in the original mod is present, likely because the remaster was unfinished.
63	* MechanicalAbomination: Spong seems to be one, as revealed in "Serpent."
64	* MediumBlending: The unused 3D Spong applies.
65	* MindOverMatter: [[ImpliedTrope Implied]] with Sp, whose mic is floating in front of them, despite never making contact with his hands.
66	* PatterSong: "Spong" and "Absorb" have unchanged vocals, making them this. "Serpent" brings down an even greater torrent of notes for a majority of the song. That's not even getting to "IP," which, [[DummiedOut although not finished]], obviously sounds like it'd be even spammier than serpent.
67	* PerversePuppet: Spong in "Serpent" appears to be this, hanging from the sky by yellow chains that seem to be forcing him to sing.
68	* PrecisionFStrike:
69	** At the end of "IP," somebody randomly yelling "FUCK!" can be heard.
70	** The only thing Viacom says in "Copyright Evasion" is "Fuck you!"
71	* ShoutOut:
72	** "Bibulus" is heavily based on the Spongeswap AU of VideoGame/{{Undertale}}, complete with a black-and-white pixelated style.
73	** "Copyright Evasion" is a remix of the only song in bbpanzu's "Vs. Arch" mod with significantly more spam and Spong taking the place of Boyfriend.
74	* SkywardScream: Spong lets one out at the end of the remastered "Abrasive".
75	* StylisticSuck: [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]] compared to the original version, but "IP" (and it's opponent, "SP.") and "My Mistake" '''definitely''' apply.
76	* SuddenlyVoiced: In the remastered version of "Abrasive", similar to its older version:
77	-->'''Spong:''' [[ClusterFBomb Shut the fuck up I'm going to rip your spleen out of yo-]]\
78	''Boyfriend beeps'' \
79	'''Spong:''' [[ClusterFBomb ...Fuckin nevermind]].
80	* TakeThat: "Copyright Evasion" is one against Viacom's infamous copyright claims.
81	* TokenHuman: The [[DummiedOut unused character]] "Guy" is the only human character in the entire mod, barring Boyfriend.
82	* UnwinnableJokeGame: "IP" likely would've been one [[DummiedOut if it was finished]].
83	* WhamEpisode: "Born" is a 'song' that reveals that Spong was born in a lab, and killed the scientist who made him, before presumably escaping.
