Man, you just can't imagine all the suffering behind that smile...Mr. Milipede needed help and so do so many others around the world in his shoes...fuck Fentanyl.
@@Meemaster334"Barney looking guy"? That's Gwimbly's iconic arch-nemesis Count Groxia! Don't worry though, he just plays a villain in the games. He's actually a really nice guy in real life. I met him at the cafe on 158 Meep Boulevard.
Such an interesting piece of Gwimbly history. The fact THIS is the reason why the Playstation exists, because Johnathan Station got into a fistfight with Gwimbly himself due to disagreements between them, will always be fascinating
Gwimbly himself had disagreements with the CEO of Insane Groundbreaking Games, the creator and owner of the Gwimbly franchise. Which prompted him to leave the company, that being the CEO was more concerned with making money than passion. And then they replaced the cute yellow guy with that scary looking Troglor! I mean, don't get me wrong, the game mechanics of Troglor are awesome, getting to shoot space aliens and stuff. But nothing beats the childlike innocence of collecting cans of creamed corn. Gwimbly was even going to be a skin in the next Troglor game, unfortunately there were some complications with the negotiations. At least Gwimbly's in Insane Groundbreaking Games Battle Royale!
I really find it stupid how you needed to get the secret creamed corn item to even defeat this boss, like how would a kid know they need to fire out of the corngun 3 times against a wall in under 2 seconds and press the combination ⬆️⬆️⬅️⬇️⬇️⬆️⬅️➡️➡️➡️⬆️ immediately afterwards, which I may remind you is in a secret level in a hidden room! But the creamed corn is definitely worth the struggle, even if there wasn’t any guide for this in the game’s manual.
@@Kogotom123 You have to unequip the Creamed Corn Garnet, which is counter intuitive, and the shop keep assumes you're uneducated and speaks really slow. Ruins speed runs but for a first run it reveals all secrets. It even revealed that the FBI had Kennedy Assassinated.
@@Jizzfrosti Yeah, even sadder considering he only started taking that fentanyl because of that fatal skateboarding accident that killed his older brother. I always believed part of the reason he got addicted was because of the pain of losing his biggest supporter and he probably blamed himself for it.
0:13 you never knew if Gwimbly could walk around the holes or if he would fall through. I always jumped over this one cuz I wasn’t sure. Stuff like this is why I wish the makers didn’t do the cdi deal.
I still can’t believe that you’ve come so far from the YTP community to actually help animate game cutscenes based off of those crappy CDI animations. Sometimes I feel like memes really do have more of an impact on us than I thought
I get nostalgia every time that I see older gwimbly content even though I only started playing Gwimbly games around 2017 (i know im young still an OG) but this video still feels like it was made for me
Mam, its been so long since we've had a proper Gwimbly game (as in collectathon, none of these crossovers or cheap mobile games) that I'm almost nostalgic for this. At least it had jumping and item collecting.
Real gwimbly was back when he had to eat all his corn. Now every collect-a-thon game teaches you gluttony. Bring back "you collected too much cream corn, gwimbly can't continue" screens! Real gaming is dying with all these training wheels and lack of educational messages about over-eating
Not surprisingly, psychicpebbles / Zach Hadel has a huge fanbase in the TH-cam community who happens to be inspired by his animations over the years. I wasn't his biggest fan but I do appreciate how much he and Cusack contribute to the resurging boom of online western cartoons, which the likes of Justin Roiland and JQ Quintel precedes them. The series however managed to bring in many online animation content creators from Newgrounds and TH-cam as guest voice actors and animators for their show, which is their own feat that I am very proud of.
I love the fact that Jimmy Davis worked on [as] & now has made an actual cartoon in the style of the old cdi games using on of the most iconic [as] mascots of 2024. Amazing work!
Internet gaslighting aside, this is genuinely a spectacular video. You did a fantastic job at emulating the feel of the CDI. I’ve never seen anyone come THIS close to that. If I didn’t know better, I genuinely would have thought this was real
While I never played the Gwimbley games myself, My Dad was always a hardcore gwimbley Fan, even though he never owned a single game. at school, he and his friends would constantly talk about Gwimbley, and so imagine the Excitement in his eyes when on his 16th birthday, he got a new game console, The Phillips CDI, and the newest gwimbley Game, "Gwimbley: Cream if the crop". Of course, as any true gwimbley fan would know, Thinks got Ugly real fast. the Gameplay was slow and generic, plus it played nothing and looked nothing like the games he played at his friend's house. The Disappointment hit him so hard, that he never played a gwimbley game again. However, the story did have a Happy ending, as I managed to find an emulator online for the original Gwimbley and Gwimbley 2: Count Groxia's Revenge, and he played his Heart out to both of them. I've only seen some All Bosses compilations of the original gwimbley trilogy, But thanks to this, I can feel the large amount of disappointment he felt.
I hate breaking the joke, but all these different iterations and imaginings of Gwimbly really shows how much dedication there is within the Smiling Friends community. And im just gonna say what no one else is willing to say, theres a damn fentanyl crisis in america dude.
Never even watched Smiling Friends but the algorithm fed me this and honestly its so well done I thought it was a real game. Had to google it and found the show in a roundabout way. So, thanks for expanding my horizons and great job on a super-convincing fake!
I'm going to get a lot of hate for this, but I actually loved Gwimbly CDI as a kid. My parents bought me a CD-I for Christmas one year thinking it was a PlayStation, and I had to make do with a lot of the games that came with it. Gwimbly was, without a doubt, my favorite. There were a few bugs here and there (not including Mr. Millipede), and the gameplay was nearly impossible for me to get a grasp on at first, but I still made do. If I got stuck somewhere, my older brother would come and play through a screen for me. I don't know when he had the time to get so good, but I never asked him about it. I never got to the end of the game though. Not even my brother could get through the final area. This is the first time I'm seeing the ending cutscene. It sucked that they couldn't get Gwimbly's original voice actor, but I think this guy did a decent job. The CDI version of Gwimbly eventually led me to try out other Gwimbly games on different consoles when I was in Highschool. I realized very quickly that the one I grew up with was the black sheep of the franchise, and that it was pretty much universally hated. Still, it meant a lot to me and my brother growing up, and I'm glad I got to see the ending all these years later. Thank you for sharing this.
I always loved the weird interpretations of the franchises featured in these old CD-i games. The choice to have the Creamed Corn be made in a factory owned by Gwimbly rather than a naturally occurring power source was such a weird decision, but it's part of the charm of Cream of the Crop
Thanks for posting this! We couldn't afford the CD-i as a kid and I was so desperate to play the sequel to my fav game. But now at least I can finally see it myself and though yeah the CD-i may not have been the best fit, the team still knocked it out the park because they had so much passion for Gwimbly.
I actually had a CD-i as a kid and I've played a shit ton of Faces of Evil and Wand of Gamelon. This video is perfection. The sound effects from the game... the shitty jumping... I love it. Only thing is the animation is TOO good lmao
Meta-Jokes aside... HUGE props for putting together this piece of art! Traditional animation is hard enough. But fluidly combining it with a niche art style? INCREDIBLE!
I rented that once when I was 8 and got stuck on the stupid ice level all weekend. Almost made me quit the Gwimbly series all together, thankfully Gwimbly Adventure 3 came out later that year
Man, we dodged a bullet with this one. I remember all the games fondly; I mean that first game in 1988 was a simple 8-bit platformer, but it still has its charm and I've beaten Lord Groxia plenty of times while collecting God knows how much creamed corn. Gwimly 2 was when it *really* started to get interesting, since that's where Mr. Millipede and the iconic victory dance first appeared (and on that note, it's a great sound for 1992). But Gwimbly 3? That simply was perfection!
This is just incredibly impressive I would have to imagine if someone made a homebrew game of CDI like this, that will deserve to had a new community shall be born
This is like the only one of these I’ve ever seen that’s done well all the way through. I think the mic audio for Gwimbly/Mr Millepede could have been a hair shittier but it’s still really incredibly done. The drawings are really perfectly uncanny in how they look and feel and move around. Great work! 🎉
You know I always remember between the late 2000s people were just making memes of this. There aren’t any more Gwimbly games anymore but hey you could say he was one of the founders that started Internet culture.
When I was a kid, because of the small variety of games, despite its clumsiness, I liked the game and I still have warm and nostalgic feelings for it. As I grew up and gained at least some taste, I began to notice the flaws that everyone was talking about, but still, the memories were and will be pleasant.
It’s amazing how mister millipede’s first major role as a sidekick was in this game. Such an integral piece to the franchise that came from the thing that almost destroyed it.
How is nobobdy talking about the fact that when the boss fight ends all the sprites just freeze, despawn and then the cutscene just takes a couple seconds to load. Absolute masterclass of immersion.
You can really tell the company and the series really on its last leg with the quality and story. The Gwimbly 64 are the only reason they could continue. But as history shown. It provide the company just enough breath to stay afloat, and give the series a somewhat dignified end.
Unfortunately, I could only upscale this to 720p if I wanted to keep the individual pixel size perfectly square. I tried a 960p version, but YT just crunched it back down to 720p anyway. Check the description if you wanna download the individual files for yourself.

Nah, Gwimbly games at least lived to see the 6th or 7th generation of consoles
Please dude, if it was that bad they wouldn’t have made like, 5 more games after.
Actually, Gwimbly left the original company due to creative differences.

@PAPicturesOfficialIs your brain missing the lobe that experiences humor? Because here you are taking a joke at face value and being rude about it.

Dude my brother and I used to play this all the time growing up truly peak of the 2D gwimbly era
This almost makes me want to start making YTP again
It’s amazing how mister millipede’s first major role as a sidekick was in this game. Such an integral piece to the franchise that came from the thing that almost destroyed it.
How is nobobdy talking about the fact that when the boss fight ends all the sprites just freeze, despawn and then the cutscene just takes a couple seconds to load. Absolute masterclass of immersion.
You can really tell the company and the series really on its last leg with the quality and story. The Gwimbly 64 are the only reason they could continue. But as history shown. It provide the company just enough breath to stay afloat, and give the series a somewhat dignified end.
I always hated when my friends would pick up the tin can in the secret level. One shotting the boss totally robs you of a sense of victory.
I personally like this Gwimbly game, the ost is pretty good and they are absolutely ahead of that time.
This brings me back.
"Ooh ooh oooh!" So iconic.
Since it's CD-I, he had to butcher the Gwimbly character and remove the iconic purple prolapse
This is so terrifyingly accurate in its energy
I would unironically try this out, it does look a lot of fun
Nice that there is new cdi context being made, games animations etc in the style of cdi animations
