SpongeBob's Bikini Bottom Pinball VPW

I wonder where I've gone wrong in life that in my mid-30s I find myself playing Spongebob pinball in VR in the middle of the night on a Tuesday...oh no wait, I am living the dream!  Thank you to everyone on the VPW team and all who contributed to the creation of this unique experience.  So many incredible little details to enjoy here, like the bubbles coming out of flippers in VR, or the bubble sound coming out of my front SSF rather than backglass, that make this stand out from the rest.  On top of all of that, it plays beautifully, is approachable for my kids to play, but has enough challenge to keep me wanting more.  Well done!!!

I woke up today to see a new table on Game Central.   I've been excited about it all day and jumped right to it after work.   I must be a Spongebob nerd.  The kiddos were always watching it and I joined in.  I've always enjoyed their silly banter.    

This table is out of this world good.  I swear people would buy this one in droves if it cost $$.   The callouts, music, lighting, sounds and everything else are top notch and just plain fun.   

We're all so fortunate to have you all in our amazing hobby!

Thank you! Thank you!

I wasn't even a jellyfish- I was so new I was an amoeba! But WOW what an enthusiastic team with an incredible level of dedication and pride. The craftsmanship is obvious on the surface but to see it in action behind the scenes- I was/am in awe. 

Spongebob brings back great memories as our youngest daughter (27 now) was absolutely enthralled with Spongebob, Courage the Cowardly Dog and of course Power Puff Girls. She had Spongebob everything in her room. I showed her a sneak peek of the VPW table and she was stunned!

This is one of a very few originals that honest to God should be a real pinball. Hats off to all the @VPinWorkshop team and fellow jellyfish! Shown here with my own desktop backdrop and @hauntfreaks alt fulldmd b2s.

Unique and fun original table, looks and sounds great. I have a lower end PC and it works great with no stutter/lag compared to the other new tables.

This is a gem of a table. Just play it! ....and marvel at the graphical /3D detail, the wonderful curated sound and music! If you have a split audio system for table (vibration feedback)  and backglass you're up for a treat. It sounds like a music band is playing from within your cabinet while taking the party outside to your backglass :).
If you're into stereo 3D, admire the depth and the realism of the transparent plastics, love it.

Thank you VPW team for sharing your wonderful work with us!

Wait a sec... let me wipe this little tear from my eye.

This is an absolute wonderful creation.  Everything looks, sounds and flows so nice on this table and it makes me just jiggle happily while I play it.  

How many tables do that?   Love it so much and haven't even tried it in VR yet.  

Rated: 5 out of 5 Pineapples!  Make sure to check this one out.

Thank you skillshot and everyone mentioned in the description above!  It's just... amazing.

Only played a handful of games, but WOW!  Have VPW done it again!?  Not half!  Amazing gfx and gameplay.  It flows beautifully.  And the sound design is simply amazing, especially the water effects in SSF!  
 

Thanks again VPW and all involved, you guys are consistently knocking it out of the park.  Thank you.

I know I already said this in the test area, this not only looks and feels real, but could easily be a real mass-produced machine...  the VR room is insane... awesome awesome awesome job guys!!

Now this is a full original with all the bells and whistles, Looks so real it might as well be. details upon details, from the tiny wires to the spotlights to the bubbles. its insane how much love and hard work was put into this creation! It shows and this will live forever as one of the best originals ever. Congratulations! 

If you haven't checked out this beauty in VR... you are missing out!

Simply gorgeous all around.

Sounds, voice overs, art, lighting, BTK stuff, fun VR room... all fantastic work!

What an incredible game, hard to believe it is not based off a real pinball table. Everything as usual is top tier from the images, sounds, lights, gameplay, modes and physics.  Another amazing job by the folks from VPW !!

This table has quickly become my second most played, trailing only behind the phenomenal Blood Machines, a stark contrast in mood to this particular gem. Despite not being a SpongeBob enthusiast – it never quite took off in my circles, and my son only dabbled in it during his younger years – I find immense enjoyment in this table. Its vibrant and whimsical elements, like the clever ball save that bounces the ball from below, add a delightful touch. The lively and colorful artwork, coupled with the fantastic lighting, is a visual delight. The themed audio clips, complemented by wonderful effects through the SSF, truly elevate the experience of immersing oneself in a cartoon world while playing.

A round of applause to the creative minds and skilled hands at Visual Pinball Workshop! Thank you SO MUCH for your hard work!

This game is just amazing !!! Having only started with Virtual Pinball a week ago, this makes all the hard work of understanding all the software needed to make this work worth it. I look forward to going through your back catalogue after this and can't imagine how you could ever top this table in the future. 

Excellent work guys, I just wish I was this talented .

Great fun, FANTASTIC in VR , looks clean, plays smooth, sounds and feels perfect, awesome job all, thanks!!

Ok to be brutally honest this is finally  what i expected from a VPW orginal to be a true master piece.

AS many of your previous work have pushed the graphics and physics to the next level of realism the only thing i missed from your first original aka Blood Machine was sound design realism. Blood machine have great soundtrack and atmosphere but i was missing the numerous callout and sound effect of a real pinball, imo the sfx was way to shy and quiet to feel like a real game from a pinball manucfacturer.

But with this one you really nailed it with the sound.

Thanks to all involved in the making of this beauty , for me the very best original table out there.

VPinWorkshop this table is so good to play one the whole family can enjoy. Just one thing I think you forgot to say was how it scorbit compatible. As I was looking at the options section when the table loaded by mistake and found the option to trun it on. So I have turn it on and have add to my list of scorbit tables. Thankyou for including that option.

This is as good as it gets for an original theme. Everything from the graphics, art, sounds, theme integration, dots, and physics contribute to an amazing build. This is probably the one that pushes me over the edge to start planning for a vr setup. Thanks again!

I'm not a fan of Spongebob, but I love this table. So much fun.

Another masterpiece !  A long deep bow in your general direction 

What a fun table. I can't get over how real it looks and plays. Incredible work from everyone involved.

Pure fun! This table could/should be real. But, feels real enough as it is, so -- thanks as always, team VPW! 🍻

Very fun Table with very nice ambiance ! I like it !! THX guys 

there are details that make the difference because they are very well done like the nudger and the table changes color and also the fact that the ball can be ejected from the bottom of the pinball machine (it's surprising) and the secret shoot, quite a few little details which say a lot about the quality of the table

During my games, I had balls that could disappear during multiballs, has this ever happened to you?

and a ball stuck on the ramp which prevented me from finishing the game, but it's bad luck's fault, it only happened to me once

So beautiful and awesome throughout!

It is simply "Incredible"

This is yet another table knocked out of the park! Unlike other originals like Blood Machines, this table is mostly geared towards younger pinball players, not just because it's Spongebob but because game play is a bit easier.

I enjoy the superb graphics and visuals on the table. The physics of course are top-of-the-line. And the table includes some of the best quotes and call-outs from Spongebob. I enjoy the theme of each mode and how it represents memorable moments in the show. Superb Spongebob music selection for the modes as well.

Again, this table is on the easier side of difficulty (I got Wizard on my first 3-ball game on ball 2, and I would consider myself an intermediate player). The modes are very simple and usually involve a single shot. Starting modes = completing them, so no matter how bad you do in the mode, you still progress towards the Wizard. And there are a lot of ball saves in the game. So this table is great to introduce to kids and to the not-so-savvy players. I think it'll still be a fun table though for the more savvy players because of the theme and that it's nice to catch a break from challenging tables sometimes.

If you have FlexDMD 1.8, this table will still work fine from what I saw (EDIT: ...but Scorbit will NOT work on 1.8). It will not work well on 1.9 beta though because of the text label positioning bug. You will need 1.9 stable if you use 1.9.
