Another reference to the theme song is in one of the messages that displays when it misses, being "It sings its incredibly annoying theme song. You tune it out."

The sign also says that Porous Bob's sells scuba supplies, a reference to the location of the series, and neck ties, an item of clothing that SpongeBob is regularly seen wearing.
- In Plants vs. Zombies 2, one of the costumes for the Garlic resembles the glove hat.
ROBLOX
- On the online gaming MMOG website Roblox, Roblox officially partnered up with Nickelodeon and made a mini Invincibubble shoulder pal that the player can put on their avatar's shoulder. There was also an Invincibubble hat that the player could wear on top of their avatar's head. It is no longer available since it was specially released for The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water.
- There are also some fan-made user games based on the show on the site.
Scribblenauts

- In the video game Undertale, in Waterfall, the player can go to Napstablook's snail farm, where they can play Thundersnail. If they encourage their snail enough, it will explode and catch fire similar to Gary in "The Great Snail Race."
- When talking to Burgerpants, if the option between "Life Advice" and "Mettaton" is empty when selected, the screen will read "I'm a goofy goober Yeah this errorr[sic]. message." This is a reference to the "Goofy Goober Song" from The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie.
