Development
The film was originally going to follow the main 7 heroes of the small Septem City through a journey to return home after being banished indefinitely, loosely following the events of the SpongeBob Fan Wiki and members of its admin team during March 2013 - May 2014. However, this proved difficult for writers Ben Weiss and Chris "DPX" to write without writing in fictional events to drive the storyline.

After 7 months of numerous screenplay restarts and other brick walls in development, Weiss announced on Twitter that he would be changing the premise to an entirely fictional account set in an indefinite near future. A very rough plot outline was created and production restarted completely.
