Ok so I was bored so I decided to datamine SpongeBob games I own (or tried as a trial during the Nick Arcade era), I found this one called Nicktoons HoverZone, but there's nothing good in the game's directory but there is a big file called assets.ast, upon experimentation, its not zlib compressed (other than most Nick Arcade games), can someone figure out how to crack it? Its 22MB and for sure has the rest of the game assets. It has a header of ASSET.

Is this format really a drag to extract? I can up the game exe if you want...

The script probably assign them the .chunkdata extension.

You can replace:
log out_name data_offset data_size

with:
log "" data_offset data_size

for automatic extensions

I only get DATs and TXTs from changing that line. Anything wrong?
