GameBoy Advance Version

The GameBoy Advance version of SuperSponge has less detail than the PlayStation version. Also, the spatulas are not a measurement of health. The health is separate, with 100 hp. Some enemies are redesigned, such as those cone-shaped enemies (they are yellow in the PS version and are happy looking; while in the GBA version they are red and orange with an angry-looking face).

Some details and power-ups from the PS version are absent in the GBA version (such as the squeaky boots).
