The SpongeBob SquarePants video games are multiple collections of video games based on the Nickelodeon animated television series, SpongeBob SquarePants, which was originally created by Stephen Hillenburg. Until 2013, the vast majority of titles were published by THQ. From 2013 to 2015, the license for most titles was handed to Activision. Now the license has been picked up by THQ Nordic. Some of the installments are based on concepts from specific episodes, as well as the two theatrical releases. There are multiple distinct versions for individual games.

SpongeBob and related characters have appeared in numerous other video games as well, featured alongside other Nicktoons. The genres for these video games are mostly action, adventure, and platform. However, a select few also range from party to sports and racing.

The games in the main series received mixed reviews from critics, however many games in the series have sold successfully.

Development

The engine for Battle for Bikini Bottom served as the engine for the video game based on The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie. Heavy Iron Studios, the game's developers, tweaked the graphics to give the game a sharper and more imaginative look than that of Battle for Bikini Bottom. They also increased the polygon count, added several racing levels, and incorporated many of the creatures seen in the film.[1]
