Interesting detail I noticed: The Jelliens in most of the game have a somewhat uniform eye appearance, being big and round. But during the Salty Spittoon segment, when Dennis shows up, his sunglasses seem to be smaller than the eyes of the Jelliens in the rest of the game - despite this, his eyes aren't visible behind them.
I haven't gotten further than that, so I don't know if this theory is contradicted later in the game, but from how it appears, Dennis might not be a Jellien. Perhaps he's working for them as a bounty hunter in exchange for his own life? I'm not sure - it's not a lot of evidence for the theory, but it's interesting to think about.
Ernest Borgnine, the late voice actor for Mermaid Man, didn't actually pass away in 2016 like the end credits of the this game suggest. He passed away in 2012. Can you please fix that when you get a chance? Thanks.
I was on mermalair and when I entered villan containment, it shows manray for a split second then my PC runs into a problem and restarts, when I load up the game my save file is gone and I can't click the faded out continue or the new game button WHAT THE FUCK GAME!? EDIT: the game is busted, even when I redownload the game it still won't let me click new game and when I click continue I get soft locked at a map with only glove world unlocked.
It's a bizarre rare bug that occurs for some users, mostly due to the save file somehow corrupting. Go to AppData\Local\AtC_BB\Saved\SaveGames and move the .sav file out of there, put it somewhere like your desktop, then start a newgame to create a new save game, quit, replace the new .sav file with your old one and it should function properly now. If that doesn't work, then I'm not quite sure how to help ya there. D:
Help me! A view seconds after 3:00am at the krusty krab it takes me out of the game and it happens on around the clock at bikini bottom to. What should I do?
UPDATE: figure out how to play 3:00am at the krusty krab but can't figure out how to play more than like 30 seconds in around the clock at bikini bottom,so what should I do?
How do i make the game to work? I load up the game and it just closes after about 30 second of opening. I though it was my RAM overloading, but I lowered and it still doesn't work. Can some one please help me?
When I opened the file and went through the intro of the game, and it just kicks me out every time before I get to click start game. Do u know any solutions?
Now it gets farther through the intro, but still kicks me out.
I have a idea for that problem,it might be because 64 bit can't work on your computer and since dave microwave games can't do a 32 bit right now you might have to wait a while,that might be the reason but not for sure.
so I was going to download this game and can anybody tell me if this game has a Five Nights At Freddy mode because I saw the picture and it looked like Five Nights At Freddy
It kinda does, theres a level with different difficulties and its basically a FNAF like system, since u have to survive and keep the entrances safe from what tries to invade them.
Hi Dave! so i just finished the game today and i gotta say it was great, not wanna spoil it so wont talk much about it here but i have a question, on the true ending when it says "to be continued on A Strange Terror From The Deep" will that be a sequel of Around The Clock or is it that other game that u have created? just wanted to know since im confused about that.
It's basically a teaser for STFTD's new update about Berry the Bear's story that I'll most likely release this year. Strange Terror From the Deep is an original game I released onto my Itchio and Gamejolt page back in January of 2019. It's completely unrelated to Around the Clock at Bikini Bottom.
hey so I'm very confused I have no idea what to do on step 4 of how to install this i get stuck on when it tells me to conform the folder as my extraction location could anyone help me
Alright, this game is awesome, no beating around the bush, and that makes me sad because I can’t get the game to work to experience the rest of it. No matter how many times I reinstall the game, or winrar itself, I just get locked in the main menu without the ability to start a new game. Continuing just softlocks me at the stage selection, and using any other button completely locks me out of selecting any of the options on the menu. Any advice?
Some users have encountered this, it's mostly due to the save file somehow corrupting. Go to AppData\Local\AtC_BB\Saved\SaveGames and remove the .sav file in there, then start a newgame and it should function normally. If that doesn't work, then I'm not quite sure how to help ya there. D:
Well, I can at least say that Around the Clock is still one of the best fangames of any media let alone a spongebob one that I’ve touched in my entire life, even if I didn’t get to finish it all the way through. Awesome work here to everyone involved, and thanks for trying to help.
that happenned to me too and i redawnloaded a game from itch.io and before extract i create a folder ATC_BB and put the game there.And you need to complete all levels again
You need to fix the suited prowler, in some parts he can charge you really close and not give you enough time to react. Maybe add a distance check to make sure the prowler isn't too close to the player before charging?
Cara, eu adorei seu jogo, ele é um dos poucos jogo de terror da itch.io em que eu realmente estou me divertindo jogando. Dá pra ver a quantidade de esforço colocada no projeto. A jogabilidade é simples mas criativa em cada fase. Além disso, o modo como ele é separado em fases dá um estilo quase arcade muito gostoso pro jogo. Segue em baixo as primeiras impressões de um amante brasileiro de bob esponja sobre o jogo :
Dave this game is fucking PHENOMENAL! This is easily your best work yet, I was waiting for a breakout hit like this one. I honestly think you could sell this game for 5-10 dollars and make some serious bank, depending on if that's legal while using characters from another franchise.
Also pls nerf Big Lenny, he's really difficult to predict when getting the wax statue and I spent over an hour trying to figure out when he was down the stairs and when he wasn't in my way.
Keep it up! I've loved your work since "dora is dead", but I think this is your magnum opus so far. Your art style is hilariously blocky but it fits perfectly in every game you put it in (somehow).
so for the next version can you make it so the arrows can make the graphics go down because it won't let me and when I start it some parts keep going while the part i'm on slows down and crashes and i can't play the game so put this on your list thanks
I did not play the game but I saw the gameplay of it. This game is out of the ordinary. 99999/10. 1 day, I will have the guts to play it. Keep making these games. and My B-day is the first day of April. Can you Do an Event for this game? Like You play as Starfishman and you fight An Jellian Easter Egg Chicken. You can make up the Rest. Thanks.
I mean, the game on the laptop is going well, I just have to lower the graphics but everything is fine, I just can't run and I can't pass the world glove
4/5: the best game i have ever played, im not a fan of the horror genre but i can make an exception, however despite what is good about this game; i have never played a game so unplayable with the tiniest amount of lag. a small cut can bounce you into a crazy direction. this has proved increasingly dificult in sandy's treedome, the direction the lag bounces me in is either in the exact direction of NutAlarm of in a direction that he can see me. Other than this one spec of lag, this game is amazing, you three devs sure make the dream team and i look forward in checking out you future projects. Keep up the good work, you guys are awesome.

EDIT: Yep, I was right.
apparently Dave didn’t make the eyes of the model behind the glasses and he is a jellian
Dave_Microwaves when i start storymode the resolution of the game is big and i cant press next button in loading screen

5 AM at Larry's Gym was so fun! I loved getting shredded while living like Larry! Been loving this game so far!

It happens a view seconds after I get in game.
UPDATE: figure out how to play 3:00am at the krusty krab but can't figure out how to play more than like 30 seconds in around the clock at bikini bottom,so what should I do?
How do i make the game to work? I load up the game and it just closes after about 30 second of opening. I though it was my RAM overloading, but I lowered and it still doesn't work. Can some one please help me?
It does the same thing to me
I didnt download the File Because Internet Network Failed
When I opened the file and went through the intro of the game, and it just kicks me out every time before I get to click start game. Do u know any solutions?
Now it gets farther through the intro, but still kicks me out.
I have a idea for that problem,it might be because 64 bit can't work on your computer and since dave microwave games can't do a 32 bit right now you might have to wait a while,that might be the reason but not for sure.
Also 64 bit for krusty krab didn't work but once I switched to 32 bit it worked perfectly,so that's probably why.
hey dave i was wondering are you going to make around the clock 2 and when is 32 bit coming out
Around the Clock at Bikini Bottom's story is 100% finished, no future content updates or sequels are planned at this time.
Unfortunately 32 bit builds don't function properly with this game, so it will have to remain as a 64 bit package, sorry!
What about implementing some of your older SpongeBob projects as levels or mini games?
What about making a spongebob around the clock 2 but instead of the main characters what about you play as the bad guys instead.
so I was going to download this game and can anybody tell me if this game has a Five Nights At Freddy mode because I saw the picture and it looked like Five Nights At Freddy
It kinda does, theres a level with different difficulties and its basically a FNAF like system, since u have to survive and keep the entrances safe from what tries to invade them.
In the game, There's a FNAF styled minigame that you can play. But you can only unlock it by collecting all the goofy goober tokens in each level.
Ok thanks
also one more thing are there doors and do you get jump scared by the dude or whatever they are just so I could know I am not at that level yet
Hi Dave! so i just finished the game today and i gotta say it was great, not wanna spoil it so wont talk much about it here but i have a question, on the true ending when it says "to be continued on A Strange Terror From The Deep" will that be a sequel of Around The Clock or is it that other game that u have created? just wanted to know since im confused about that.

hey so I'm very confused I have no idea what to do on step 4 of how to install this i get stuck on when it tells me to conform the folder as my extraction location could anyone help me
make it a browser game plz i would to play this game i watch youtuber play it so plz
My game keeps freezing does anyone know how to fix this? It's kinda unplayable
can you refresh your game
Alright, this game is awesome, no beating around the bush, and that makes me sad because I can’t get the game to work to experience the rest of it.

There wasn’t a Saved file in the AtC_BB file for some reason? I tried making my own but no dice.
Oof, I haven't got a clue then why it's bugging out like that for ya. Sorry I can't really help ya out on this one.
Well, I can at least say that Around the Clock is still one of the best fangames of any media let alone a spongebob one that I’ve touched in my entire life, even if I didn’t get to finish it all the way through. Awesome work here to everyone involved, and thanks for trying to help.

You should add an expansion/dlc about the jelliens invading rock bottom! It would be a very scary and tense setting imo.
You need to fix the suited prowler, in some parts he can charge you really close and not give you enough time to react. Maybe add a distance check to make sure the prowler isn't too close to the player before charging?
A Giant Plankton clone stepped on me. My life is complete! Thank you for making that possible. 3 AM at Industrial Park was amazing!

The Giant Plankton is pretty funny 😂 especially the car yeeting

I think markiplier's gonna love this game ;)
As a SpongeBob and spooks fan, This game is thee best! 10000/10 🔥
so for the next version can you make it so the arrows can make the graphics go down because it won't let me and when I start it some parts keep going while the part i'm on slows down and crashes and i can't play the game so put this on your list thanks

how do you unlock the 2x cheats
hey Dave the game has been working fine but now my saved file is gone and when after I have the game open I can’t get into the game
Really enjoyed the uniqueness of 3 am at the krusty krab! Gave the hardest difficulty a try too, it's pretty intense!
after the 3am levels their are no more levels to do. so what should i do?
You have to beat Krusty Krab on the second difficulty to proceed.
ok thanks
if your on a laptop you can still play it
but it will be laggy
patrick ma w wyobraźni garys mod

ja umiem wszystkie gry rozpieprzyć
