Hey guys so recently I just got a new latop and its specs are insane (for what iv had for past few years, its insane compared to that :P) anyways so I was able to get the psp version for this game on emu which is great so I'm going to be testing and basically practising running the game on this version, and I have noticed a few differences for this game between DS and this PSP, backstory for those who don't know iv been running DS TYA for a while and decided I wanted to kill this game on all consoles :D

anyways going on to the differences in these games speedrunning related would be

DIFFERENCES :

PSP: Has faster loads PSP: Has numerous more enemies around the map making things 10x more "harder" (compared to DS) PSP Has changed where the residential district bus stop is located it is now located just outside of Spongebobs house which does makes things a lot faster and saves a few long back tracking in this games PSP: You can no longer obtain the Glow-in-beard item in sponges house before defeating Man-Ray, its just not accessible to get, you can get it after you beat him, which only loses a few seconds not gonna lie PSP: A lot of "New Mission" texts which paused you in the DS version are now removed so we don't have to skip them every time we see them now their are less, which might save 1 min throughout whole run. PSP: Using jelly is now a bit of a pain because of how we need to go into a menu to use it, losing a bit of time, but TBH using jelly isn't the optimal way to go so not realz PSP: Because there is not touch screen a lot of tasks had to be modified to reach the PSP ability to play, so a lot of touching the bottom screen on the DS version is now even more easier and faster on the PSP version a few examples are the following :

• Getting tips off tables in KK is as easy as going up to tables and pressing X to automatically get the TIP
• Spamming O to enter places
• No more drawing symbols to activate powers, its just the same combination set for each different power (which is possibly slow but less annoying!) There are a few more which I will add later when I have finished the run, currently I'm still in the middle so I thought I better right some up before I forget the early ones xD

I know this game is dead and no one would probably read this but I'm just posting this for me and maybe others, its just a reference for me and I like studying / exploring and documenting this game as I love it :D

In segment 2 differences (the sinister slug route line) -PSP: The way you get to Mrs Puff Boating school is way different in PSP. Its slower and more harder as there are a ton of enemies. -PSP: Boating school course is now sightly different as well adding in a pain in the ass puzzle, slower course again and harder as there are more enemies. -PSP: You now need to get 20 bubbles rather than 12 on the DS version more = slower -PSP: HUGE DIFFERENCE A POSITIVE TO THIS VERSION! YAY! (for once) anyway now getting bubbles you can now death abuse and the number of bubbles you have gotten will stay, rather then the only solution on DS is loading in back PSP can just death and still continue. -PSP: Sandies location in Jelly Fish Fields is slightly different she's more off the right making it more slower. PSP: You now need to catch 36 freaking bubbles In JFF before confronting the Sinister slug making this way slower and harder as there are enemies flooding everywhere.
