my game crashes even secindes later i run the game its just me or i have to download somenthing appart the drivers i van´t even play the tutorial at the begining is ok but then puff
Hi I really need help that when I try to play the game it crashes after exactly 1 minute. Everything is completely fine except this. I'm currently on laptop, does anybody have solutions? Please, I REALLY want to play this game
What is your PC's OS? Are you using a lower end PC or a laptop? I heard Windows 11 doesn't support Unreal Engine games atm and lower end PCs usually run into unexpected issues like crashing and the sort. Sorry I can't really be much help, but when it comes to crashes, if I don't get any sort of information or crash report, this isn't much I can do!
The game's completely done. I *would* like to go back and release a patch someday, but considering how obnoxious it is to work in this project and packaging and releasing a build taking almost the entire day, I've been so demotivated from doing anymore work on it, lol.
Yeah, unfortunately Windows 11 doesn't support most Unreal Engine games from what I heard. Only time will tell when they'll release an update for the OS that fixes that issue.
Hey Dave I'm having a problem with Goo Lagoon. I've been playing through without any problems until Weenie Hut Jr's, where the game crashes upon entering through the vent. The only possible way to fix this I see is restarting the entire game.
Yeah, it isn't exactly something I can answer persay. But I'd recommend using the Ai move to node (make sure on pawn it reference's to the AI's self) to command it to go to certain coordinates, and on success or fail it can move to the next AI move to, etc.
I don't plan on updating Around the Clock anytime soon, however there are a few fixes I would like to do in the future if/when I have the time. 1. I don't plan on adding a restart checkpoint button due to the way the game's designed, it makes it easier to cheese the no-death challenge. 2. Difficulty settings aren't a thing I'd add since the level difficulty is there just to determine how hard a level is, not in terms of values but the way I designed the level in general. 3. Optimization is something I wanna look at more but can't guarantee since I've done most of what I'm capable of doing. I was able to get the game to run at a consistent 50-60+ fps throughout the game on my decent rig so it can be difficult for me to optimize perfectly for older machines.
Hello Dave. I have a question when I lunch the game it doesn't cover the monitor and a bit is cut off. Is there a way to fix that and if there isn't could you add a windowed mode option and a fullscreen or covering monitors correctly? Thanks
It might be that the game doesn't support your monitor's resolution. The only temporary fix that's available at the moment is by going to your computer's display settings and choosing the 1920x1080 resolution. If I ever go back to update this game (which I've been reluctant about cause it's such a pain to work with this project, LOL) I'll definitely add a windowed/fullscreen mode. Sorry about the inconvenience!
Its fine if you don't update it but thanks for considering it.And thanks for making the game because I had fun watching other youtubers play it and overall its a masterpiece.
it has to be on itch io and game jolt and u cant pay it because is based on a cartoon not Daves actual game will it is his game but he cant make you pay for it because warner bros owns it and they would sue dave for it
This is one of the best Games I've ever played but I can not beat the dirty bubble. When he gets red he blows to long and I always fly of the map and I am dying. Could someone maybe tell me how to beat him :)
This game is real gold, it would be crazy if they ported it to ps4, switch, xbox one, they plan to make a port to consoles?? (although of course, this is the copyright problem, since the game is pure spongebob characters and Nickelodeon does not I would like a great competition)
Not sure why that's happening? Only thing I can think of is deleting the save file manually by going to your AppData\Local\AtC_BB\Saved\SaveGames and deleting the .sav file.
Hi Dave, I don't know why but when I downloaded Around the Clock, the title screen shows New Game and Continue (In a darker color as a way of saying I didn't play the game yet.) I clicked the New Game Button but nothing happened, then I clicked the Continue button and it went straight to the map screen, but none of the buttons I click on respond at all. Do you know how I can fix it, especially since it's Spooky Month and I'm hoping to do a letsplays of this horror game for my Youtube channel. Thanks in advance.
Your save file might've gotten corrupted on it's first bootup. If you go to your AppData\Local\AtC_BB\Saved\SaveGames and delete your .sav file manually, it should fix the issue. The game should automatically create a new save file upon booting it back up. Lemme know if it works!
I did that, and it had the same result as last time. Then I decided to delete the game and downloaded an entirely new file which also had the exact same result.
Hi Dave, I'm not sure if this is you fault or not, but the 'paks' file keeps on getting corrupted (It says that there was an error during the download.), and the game crashes after the introduction song because of this! I tried re-downloading the game but the same thing happened. If this isn't your fault, do you have any advice on how to fix it? Thanks!
hello , were i live itch.io is block'd and with vpn it take's 10 days to dawnload can you pls put it on google drive i love your game but i can not play the bks of this . thanks
Hello Dave Microwave Games, I wanted to contact you guys about a bug, after completing the level industrial park, the next level doesn't show up, I've even restarted the game and it doesn't show still.
Your save file might've gotten corrupted. If you go to your AppData\Local\AtC_BB\Saved\SaveGames and delete your .sav file manually, it should fix the issue. The game should automatically create a new save file upon booting it back up. If that doesn't work, I'm not quite sure why it's not functioning proper. D:
I'm sorry for bothering you again Dave Microwave Games, but my snow in Sandy's tree dome is thicker than it's supposed to be. I can't see the robot and the parts are covered underneath the snow. I checked to see if anyone else was having a problem like this, but they had it fine and they could see the robot and the pieces for the flamethrower. Could you tell me what the problem is?
Not sure what could be causing the snow to render like that? I know that was an issue in the 32 bit version that I removed a long time ago, but I haven't seen that happen to anyone playing the 64 bit version. Sorry I don't know what could be making that happen!
There's this weird issue where the UI and other stuff like that is either off centered or zoomed in (I can't exactly tell it basically runs off the screen to the right). Is there anything that can be done about this? Config files?
Unfortunately there aren't any resolution settings you can tweak, but the best solution is to change your computer's display resolution to 1920x1080 or have a 1920x1080 monitor. I know certain resolutions are a bit wonky with the game, and the UI won't auto adjust to them correctly.
Dave microwave games, I have a question? I accidentally deleted the files, do you think they are saved or do I need to do the entire game again. (Btw I was at the Mermalair)
Edit: I needed to delete other files but I deleted this one.

Might be your PC? If it's a lower end computer or laptop, you might run into unexpected issues like that.
what’s the minimal computer specs to play this game? Thank you.
i use a laptop that is more a toaster, thanks
Hi I really need help that when I try to play the game it crashes after exactly 1 minute. Everything is completely fine except this. I'm currently on laptop, does anybody have solutions? Please, I REALLY want to play this game
I am having exactly the same problem. Not sure what to do. Hope to get some help from this community. Thanks.

It's Windows 10, and it's not THAT low pc, it's enough to run this game, but still somehow it crashes :(
mine crashed too, after 1 minute. I have windows 11, 16Gb ram, Gforced graphic card. I thought it would be enough power for this game.
Hi, I just found a solution, and this is the most weirdest solution I have seen, turning off the internet. Not a Joke, it worked for me.
@MineYT8 Wow uhhhh, I mean if it works it works, lol.
@LT74 Yeah, Windows 11 doesn't support Unreal Engine games yet from what I heard. So you'll run into crashing issues like that.
thank you. I tried it and it worked indeed! Amazing! Whatever it takes to play this game right? :)
Will there be any more updates or bug fixes or have you finished working on this game
The game's completely done. I *would* like to go back and release a patch someday, but considering how obnoxious it is to work in this project and packaging and releasing a build taking almost the entire day, I've been so demotivated from doing anymore work on it, lol.
hey dave i have to ask a question when i try to runt the game it just doesent turn on i think its because i use windows 11
Yeah, unfortunately Windows 11 doesn't support most Unreal Engine games from what I heard. Only time will tell when they'll release an update for the OS that fixes that issue.
oh thanks its ok

This is the best Fangame ever. Also, I found this game by watching YT. But, I don't know what are computer requirements for the game?
Was it Phantom Strider? thats where I heard of the game lmfao
First: The Polish Youtuber...
fgteev played this game :)

Can anybody help me because in Sandys Treedom, the snow is to high and I can't see anything.
can you make this a web game because i have crap pc that downloads will not work especially when it comes to ur games dave
Quick question Dave:
Are you releasing Scooby Horror: Arcade on itch.io or Patreon?
Itchio and Gamejolt, cause the game is a free parody/fangame.
does scooby horror arcade means that we will be able to create our own game just like in our savior recorn culted arcade mode
it has to be on itch io and game jolt and u cant pay it because is based on a cartoon not Daves actual game will it is his game but he cant make you pay for it because warner bros owns it and they would sue dave for it
when is the 32 bit coming back out ? my pc cant run the 64 bit well :((
This is one of the best Games I've ever played but I can not beat the dirty bubble. When he gets red he blows to long and I always fly of the map and I am dying. Could someone maybe tell me how to beat him :)
It's a risky strategy, but what I do is keep moving to my left or right, and it almost always works.
Thanks for helping me

hi dave can you make a zipped folder please?
if you can't i am sorry for disturbing you.

Ah yikes, I'm not sure what could be causing the problem then. I'm really sorry I can't be of much help. :(
what platform are you playing on
I'm playing this on a Windows 10 PC, downloaded it on WinRAR and extracted it to my Downloads folder.
if theres an exe file open that and the game should work
It does, but the title screen won't let me play it.
shit
Have you tried also deleting WinRAR? It might be a good solution. It's worth a try, I guess. Just a suggestion though :).

For some reason when i go to open Atc_BB it just brings me to 2 more files
5 stars i love ms puffs boating school
hello , were i live itch.io is block'd and with vpn it take's 10 days to dawnload can you pls put it on google drive i love your game but i can not play the bks of this . thanks
Ah sorry, I can't be uploading my games to Google Drive. But have you tried downloading from Gamejolt? My library of games are on there as well.
So i found a pretty strange bug in the final level.
If you skip the dialog after beating Doodle Patrick, it sometimes goes back to the title screen.
I featured your game in my video
Hello Dave Microwave Games, I wanted to contact you guys about a bug, after completing the level industrial park, the next level doesn't show up, I've even restarted the game and it doesn't show still.
Ah that’s not a bug, you need to complete the second difficulty or higher of the Krusty Krab to unlock 5AM at Larry’s Gym.
Ohhhhh, ok thanks.
Part 2 out now! this game just keeps on giving!
Bikini Bottom under attack and only a Sponge and his a**hole friend can save everyone!

Could you give me the 32 bit version?
hello Dave Microwaves Games

Thanks for the advice, I'll give it a try when I get the chance.
Bikini Bottom under attack and only a Sponge and his a**hole friend can save everyone!
This game is amazing! i'm making a series out of it!
dave help i have to find the save file
Your save file should be located in AppData\Local\AtC_BB\Saved\SaveGames
i know i found it while backing up my undertale data
oh ok
Dave Why Dont You Upload This Game On Steam?
He can't, since this game is a fan game
it could be possible if only the game is not spongebob since nickelodeon would not be happy, like nintendo and fan-games
Dave microwave games, I have a question? I accidentally deleted the files, do you think they are saved or do I need to do the entire game again. (Btw I was at the Mermalair)
Edit: I needed to delete other files but I deleted this one.
Your save file is located in your Appdata, so deleting the game folder should not affect your save.
Thank you so much
not going to lie i wish you can play on macOS. because i do play on mac. and whenever i try to play. i can't seem to play.
thats like me on my windows pc haha, it keeps crashing.
THE GAME WORKED!!!
im excited to play
thanks for the tip devloper
cant play because need software
The only thing that is required is an unzipping program such as winrar to unzip the .rar folder, but no other software is required to run the game.
