The creators of the show are so intertwined with internet culture, something tells me they knew the episode’s plot about how nobody remembers Gwimbly was gonna end up ironic

[brianpacheco]

If only Mr. Millipede was an alive, him and Gwimbly could’ve seen a new wave of fans. RIP Mr. Millipede 😢

Gwimbly is just Croc at this point in time

[BRNG]

The animator behind gwimbly makes outstanding content, the two pipes short film he created is awesome

[riggityrooahh]

I just love this episode because not only was it funny, but it also perfectly encapsulates the modern state of video games, and how many companies who got their start making mascot platformers would later move exclusively to making live-service shooters

We need to see Gwimbly be a returning character, and I don’t mean a main character. Just one in the background of certain episodes, making cameos and stuff.



















i regret saying the word “cameos”

I remember staying up all night trying to 100% the game and finally getting every last can of creamed corn. Seeing Gwimbly do his iconic victory dance was breathtaking.

Hey, I made the mariokart Gwimbly mod! And the model that most people are using for their projects too!

When Zach yell peaked the mic I couldn't stop laughing. Then he did it again.

Though gwimbly is popular, he still remembers the tragic death of his friend. Rip Mr millipede, you'll be missed

He’s not only from smiling friends he also had his own game in the 90s

[naganut]

Qwimbly and Rayman would definitely be best friends

[BlakeTheGamblingHero]

Even before Gwimbly ive been a fan of the person that created his model and his youtube content, hoolopee. The guy is a living love letter to the ps1 game era with his content. I reccomend you check out his original video Two Pipes

[andrewpotts]

If only Adult Swim games was still around. They could have made an official Gwimbly game.

You married someone 8 years older than you.

I’m just now realizing how much I’d like Mark to do a standalone vid on Smiling Friends

[Mr_bukowski]

Gwimbly is such a cool character cause he actually does look and feel like a mascot platformer character from those random PS1 games

[xxczerxx]

I wouldn't be surprised if it becomes this meta thing where Gwimbly ACTUALLY becomes a successful videogame character in real life.


The fact of the matter is, they're tapping into something we haven't had in a cartoon in generations, the show reminds me of South Park in its first couple of seasons in that it's completely innovative and CLEARLY the work of two visionaries and not some massive design by committee. People respond to that.

Surprised Mark would talk about anything related to newgrounds animators considering certain events

I’m so happy he’s back I used to play creamed capers on my ds
