Creepy sprite found in a Spongebob flash game

[dakooldood]

Thought you all may be interested in this. A Spongebob art collector was digging through the code to the flash game Spongebob Saves the Day and found a weird sprite that goes by the name of YUMMER in the file's code. It's uhh... definitely unsettling. My first thought was that it was a fan game, but you can find this game on the Nickelodeon website. Why this is in the game, I have no idea, and it seems like nobody else does either. To make things stranger, an unused sprite depicting Sandy's suit completely destroyed was discovered when people dig deeper. My personal theory is that it was just a bored developer, but what do you all think?

Somewhat related, while using a program to edit deep code and other things in (edit)The Sims 2 program SimPE I came across a photo of a Mr. Potato Head, when I confirmed this on a Sims 2 Chat room in front of people that mod the game, they just laughed at me, and the feeling was like, maybe they were laughing at me for having some kind of malware on my system.

on topic though, sometimes developers leave things in video games sometimes only a programmer or someone who studies the code can find. And other times it is somehow seen through cheating, like on Duke Nukem 3D Episode 1 level 5 where if you jet pack across an otherwise impossible section of the level. there is some writing on the wall say in in quotes "How Did You Get Here?"

  No, that's not a sprite, that's the devil infiltrating your computer files.

It looks like a unfinished Polygon more that a sprite. it might be that blow fish Spongebob character only stuck into the game for some reason, I've seen worse more creepy things than that with the Sims 1 and The Sims 2 for PC. After I started downloading things online for The Sims 1 I started having an upside down head with eyeglasses in the neighborhood and every time I would click on that house with the deformed sprite (not polygon) it would crash my game.

In the sims 2 I've had The Sims 1 somehow merged into the sims 2 making my game characters eyes become out of sync, and my all my Sims 2 desktop icons were turned into The Sims 1 icons also. I'm the only one that has ever had that happen to me I think while having both games installed at the same time on Windows XP

I've loaded my computers with so much crap over the years, I'm not sure the devil would be much in comparison lol.

Hmm, that's strange. By "downloading things online", do you mean mods? That would explain it, but I'm not entirely sure how that would affect your Sims 2 game.

I learned the hard way that any type of online download for the sims can affect the game in a terrible way, Especially from this website called TheSimsResource. That site was making hacked everything. Some of the stuff that I got from them and other sites at the time, 2000-2009 would crash the game even after I deleted the things that made it crash and even re-installing the game didn't help. either and the File Cop program could never find the issue

The only fix I had back then was to abandon the game forever untill I got a new PC, then the game went back to normal untill I started to download again for that game.

I guess the most interesting subject is that this kind of stuff come from an official product with young public as main focus.

It's certainly creepy, there something about smiling faces with big eyes that's always pretty unsettling.

By the way, Spongebob seems to have bad luck with hidden stuff in its games.

- The porn of the show in Super Sponge.
- The feces texture in one of the PS2 games.
- This one.

There something fishy with this kind of stuff in content for kids lol
