[@J.P1981]

Can't believe that after all these years people are talking about Gwimbly again. My dad had a copy of his of his first two games back in the day.

[@Sarge327]

I wish I didn’t sell mine back in the day, they sell for quite a lot nowadays

[@josiahshea3350]

I have the 64 port of Gwimbly 2 somewhere in the attic, seriously thinking of digging it up and playing it for old times sake.

[@drockwell1583]

I didn’t know there was a second game. I just had the first one glad it got a part 2.

[@KenVermette]

As far as I'm concerned Gwimbly 3 doesn't exist.

[@Rickolee]

Gwimbly was awesome back in the day! He started love for games.

[@DanGamingFan2846]

I love how everyone went on a gaslighting campaign to retroactively make the world believe Gwimbly's a real platformer mascot, with this episode being an epic crossover.

[@watershipup7101]

Yeah, those memes are crazy.

[@KingsBard]

Like Goncharov or Ships of the Northern Fleet

[@shadow_master7303]

Literally the top comment, I love it

[@daysand123]

Just like how Portugal basically coerced Ubisoft to actually make Skull and Bones rather than use the overseas offices promised for jobs for its people as a vacation home for the francaphones

[@azureNotsure]

I was an unfortunate victim of this before I watched the show.

[@thescarletcultist113]

“It’s my IP to sit on and do nothing with!”

[@Vattgh3rn]

Oh Hi Xbox good to see ya how's EA?

[@thescarletcultist113]

Xbox, ea, pretty much a lot of companies. Not just gaming ones either.

[@SoulCore413]

Alice Madness Returns…

[@SJLN0-]

Megaman

[@Baconbot-jr4vh]

Valve

[@angrybrony]

Least weird game ceo. There was no weird sexual harassment in his presence.

[@theredblooper]

I dunno, telling people to kiss his nugget is kinda sus

[@jordanhunter3375]

*weird

[@angrybrony]

@theredblooper yes but I never said susless.

[@webaazul2500]

Also, no breast milk :( (Yeah Blizzard I'm looking at you)

[@FarflungClown]

I don't know, the nugget kissing and eating Sweet and Spicy off Troglors helmet gives me some creep vibes.

[@TheLuckyOne-rg4vk]

Love how this episode got everyone in on a gaslighting psyop to convince the world Gwimbly was real. Wouldn't surprise me if someone made a PS1 romhack for him. Edit: The replies represent the highest of performance art. Shine on you crazy diamonds. 😤

[@thedoglovinggamer5825]

What are you yapping about man, they are real. You need to get some sleep.

[@CallMeAmateur]

Dude. You realize Gwimbly is basically the mascot of platformers right?

[@dragonslayergu1161]

Wait I wasn't aware of this lmaooo

[@Basically_Anybody]

Dude how can you say this? The Gwimbly franchise was foundational to the design philosophy of 3D action-adventure puzzle games. They laid the groundwork for games like Banjo Kazooie and Conkers Bad Fur Day. It stands up there with Halo: Combat Evolved.

[@electricbayonet2]

I’m legitimately impressed that you made it this far without seeing a Gwimbly game. I could get it if you’re on the younger side, though. We went so long without a new game that I think a lot of fans kind of gave up hope of a revival. Even merchandise availability seemed to dry up overnight, and copyright lawyers are still coming down _hard_ on third-party and even private sellers.

[@ImmaLittlePip]

I love how the CEO looks like the Worlds strongest Gamer from that one Jontron episode (Which oddly enough Zach Hadel voiced him in that episode)

[@thedoglovinggamer5825]

He was definitely based on that.

[@Kamakrazee]

Sup pip, fancy seeing you here

[@PotionOfProof]

How are you everywhere?

[@Khornecussion]

Lyle Rath voices the CEO in this one and it's still pretty dang funny. Zach voicing Gwimbly is so fitting.

[@edwinsolis5710]

Both are based on the upside-down face “puppets” with googly eyes that was so popular back in the late 2000’s.

[@theredblooper]

I’ve been hoping and praying for a Gwimbly remake collection like Spyro Reignited and Crash N-Sane. One day, gwimbros… we’ll have our day…

[@HaughtyToast]

As long as they don't try rebooting it the same way they did last time. Gwimbly Recharged: Bonesplitter's Riot was a disaster. I'll never get over the weird Digimon-esque redesign they gave him. The game didn't even have any cream corn in it.

[@AnimatorsatWork]

I hated Gwimbly: Springs n’ Gears. Why make a game where Gwimbly had to make motorcycles to collect the cans of creamed corn? And it wasn’t even name brand creamed corn it was like that nasty store brand creamed corn. I hated it when the game company let some rando game developer that until then just ported Chinese knock off video games make it because they were too lazy.

[@edwinsolis5710]

I had a chance to meet Mr Millipede back in the day. I was just a kid back then. My brother was a big Gwimbly fan, and I was more of a Worm Oddessy kind of guy. We visited GwimblyCon back when those were still popular. Only Mr Millipede was there, alongside some producers. My brother talked to him for a while. He was really humble, gave us a signed Creamed Corn and told us to have a nice day. I notice only now that he looked kinda sad. Kinda tired. I was never the biggest Gwimbly fan, but I bought Mr Millipede’s Mansion when it came out despite that. The game bombed. Never heard from Mr Millipede again until he died of Fentanyl overdose. I still have the signed Cream Corn. Godspeed Mr Millepede.

[@CodeeXD]

America has a fentanyl crisis man ima just say it

[@MuscleMan69420]

They havent released mouse quest 3 yet, its been 45 years already 😢

[@rosenrot234]

I still thought it was so sweet the internet just embraced Gwimbly when this episode aired.

[@eg0zb]

Its so great to see a Smiling Friends/Gwimbly crossover. Really sad nobody does anything woth his IP anymore

[@doingitwron]

That end credit scene… If you’ve ever had a best friend who was legit crazy, that sums it up. One minute you’re their CIA handler, the next you are their guardian angel. I know it means nothing at this point, but I’m sorry I didn’t know enough at the time to point you in the direction of ACTUAL mental help man.

[@shinyagumon7015]

Gwimbly is such a cool character, glad he's back.

[@JayTohab]

Crazy he agreed to guest star in this

[@gremmythoumeaux2393]

11:38 Out of all the designs in this show, I never would’ve imagined that guy’s wife would be the thing to freak me out the most. That face she makes when she screams really took me off guard.

[@Hamantha]

I can’t believe all the Gwimbly love this episode gave. I remember growing up with the handheld games that were slept on honestly. I never cared for the last one that tried 3D on a handheld, Rough and Tumble was just a nightmare

[@catroll4247]

The saddest thing is: there are people like that muscle dude, who say that they want to be happy, but in reality they just wanna drag everyone in 10m vicinity down to his/her friggin dipshit depression schtick. They want to be and feel miserable! Don't waste your time with that...

[@electricbayonet2]

Azu's voice slowly getting more and more deadpan as he becomes the Charlie to Alicia's Pim has been amazing.

[@Riconort]

Even though Gwimbly: Creamed Corn Conundrum for the Wii wasn't very popular and the controls were a bit wonky, the wii was the only console I owned when i was younger so it holds a very special place in my heart and my favourite gwimbly game. The way they implemented shaking the wiimote to do Gwimbly's iconic victory dance was very innovative. Count Gloxia Glory Galore is still the best boss fight track ive ever heard from any game, and it shows since its used everywhere on youtube.

[@kammhia397gaming9]

That fact that someone told me that weird pink thing behind Gwimbly is his Prolapse poking out, makes me wanna vomit everytime I look at it.

[@PotatoPatatoVonSpudsworth]

It's a tail, but 100% the placement was chosen to evoke that effect.

[@slitheen3]

It's his cloaca. It's completely normal, don't worry about it

[@slitheen3]

I love how Charlie is in the maid outfit when his nose gets ripped off, and then in the next scene with the ice pack he's back in his regular clothes 😂 i didnt realize when i first watched it, and then like an hour later it suddenly dawned on me and I had to go back and look to make sure

[@Vattgh3rn]

Alicia's scream of frustration is the scream of all gamers everywhere

[@johnsmith-mi2uc]

i love that a few days after this was shown, people started making mods quimbly into random games, like mario 64 and mario kart.

[@SpaceSkeleton-ho9lp]

season 2 came out swinging, this episode is my favorite episode of the whole series😭theres so many funny quotes from gwimbly "I hate this red thing! I spit on you!"

[@Parz03]

Gwimbly is literally banjo

[@jordanhunter3375]

What you talking about? Gwimbly is Gwimbly! Banjo only outshone him because Rare copied Gwimbly's homework!

[@JerseyDevils21]

More like Rayman

[@Parz03]

@JerseyDevils21 nah at least rayman still APPEARS in games

[@crcoghill]

Because Season 2 comes out on Adult Swim first then a day later on HBO Max. I didn't even know it was on Amazon.

[@ultimax10doesgaming48]

I know people like to shit on Gwimbly 06' but I still had a lot of fun as a kid. The jankyness just made it more funny.

[@CallMeAmateur]

Am I the only one that never beat Gwimbly's final boss? Every time I aimed the Gwimbly gun at Count Groxia's weak points, He would just cover them up and restart the pattern.

[@BROXBasher]

You gotta use the environment. There’s a shock pad lever that shows up after the pattern, but it’s always hard to spot.

[@ButtonMasherReal]

There's a pretty simple cheese that just gets around that completely. If you shoot him right as his attack animation begins, you can stunlock him, and beat phase 1 easily.

[@CalebRWXbox]

Thank you for all the content and everything you do Alicia. Appreciate you!

[@chasethecringewolf2195]

Funfact the ceo is the same va as The Fudge

[@tyresepitts7594]

Alicia what was with that scream with that dlc and microtransactions spiel sounded like a lamb being choked to death

[@ImmaLittlePip]

Ooo Ooo Ooo

[@Neroevelocity]

Alicia forget streaming Nier Automata give us a FULL Gwimbly playthrough instead.

[@zydrakeshogun]

The CEO is like Microsoft and Disney right now. Looking foolish and clowning around.

[@chriskoloski32]

It's funny to see this since Microsoft just shut down a bunch of game companies that they've been spending billions of dollars on

[@Orson_Welp]

To be fair, Smiling Friends season 1 is and was on Max first. It's Adult Swim which is owned by Warner Bros. I didn't even know it was streaming on Amazon; that's the weird thing to me

[@Audio-1nj3ct]

the more rare version of gwimbly is on the Dreamcast.

[@heartheater8315]

I think he pushes people away because he expects them to leave and this way he’s in control (I’m paraphrasing something I heard someone say but you get the idea)

[@plaguedoctorjamespainshe6009]

My gaming setup is exactly like James's one in the end Broken TV on the ground, mouse and keyboard in the ground bed, no sheets, clothes all over the floor, drinking beer and crying all day Living the gamer life rught there, trully beautiful

[@user-cx6lq8mt5g]

It’s really sad how obscure Gwimbly became in recent years. The only experience I had with his games was that one DS game that came out back in 2002 or 3 that went ignored due to poor advertising and sales. It was still part of my childhood and would play it a lot with my cousins.

[@Sapphire707]

Boss started wavedashing xD

[@arkauthor]

Please Watch Smiling Friends puppet episode.

[@gloverwilliams]

Make no mistake, I love my PS2, but the one thing my PS1 had that the newer generation lacked was the second Gwimbly game. I regretted giving that console away for years. Still do.

[@theotherjared9824]

You should definitely play the Gwimbly games. They've definitely aged, but they're still lots of fun and his newfound crossover appearances have made him popular again.

[@IcyDUD3]

Can’t believe Alicia got introduced to gwimbly and his iconic prolapse

[@bastiwen]

Hell yeah I can't wait for more of season 2! Will you be uploading full episodes on Patreon like you did for season 1? It was great seeing the full episodes

[@aliciaxdeath]

Yup I’m still live right now and recorded this on stream so when stream ends later tonight I’ll upload it

[@bastiwen]

@@aliciaxdeath Ooh I didn't know that! Have a good stream then, maybe I'll catch a bit of it too. And thanks for the answer, that was super fast I wasn't expecting that so quickly haha

[@sonofhades57]

Gwimbly deserved his shot on TV, considering the last time I saw him in anything was that awful crossover with Crash Bandicoot.

[@verspin]

7:06 I'm saving that. Don't ask why

[@astroboy6515]

I love that throne you got!

[@monkeybrain0212]

PAHAHA! Hello EA games! Dunno if the CEO guy is meant to be based on them but he certainly says stuff that adds up XD

[@adrianaslund8605]

Imagine finding out that Dex the Gecko died from fent.

[@neofulcrum5013]

Poor Gwimbly

[@shockjohnson6194]

This episode was OOGLY-DOO!

[@12DAMDO]

Gwimbly for Smash Ultimate confirmed

[@MollyDollyy774]

14:02 The little smash bros reference is amazing~ Also it’s Gwimbly, the well known PS1 Character, he was amazing, ohhhh remember the Creamed Corn. Remember how fun Gwimbles games where? 15:10 Mr. Boss and his Alter Ego… I can relate, I also have an Alter, it’s kinda a scary thing, but I think their some kind of Protector, because of experiences I had…

[@verspin]

12:10 Am I the only one who bust out laughing seeing the grave? Idk it was just such a funny timing for me

[@NotAGoodUsername360]

God I love Troglor the Shootinator.

[@GenericProtagonist118]

Also weird foreshadowing connection but in the beginning Gwimby did a birthday video for someone named James. The scary buff guy is named James. James is a Gwimby fan.

[@Bread_Bauru]

The scream Alicia let out at 7:07 , when she heard the CEO's speech is a goddamn mood considering it's quite close to accurate

[@jaxcraft2848]

Meet Gwimbly! You're finally caught up! Episode 2 just came out recently.

[@samuelmcmillan6832]

Video Recommendation: The Silver Campaign by Lythero.

[@daysand123]

The whole 4 billion polygon new mascot thing is without a doubt a dig at how every triple A company nowadays is going to pump millions to the hundreds into just making a game look as realistic as possible before maybe deciding to actually make the game good. Fortunately despite being literally the first Quadruple A level games based on the amount you can see put into the assets alone, the soft reboot God of War sequels were actually well done. If course for every success like that you get twenty Call of Dutys that are literally consumed by fans that dont or barely give a shit. The only thing separating that franchise from Madden anymore is the guns and the little bit of polish it actually gets in spite of being mid to trash.

[@JohnCena-tp4gh]

Day 270 of asking Alicia to play Nier:Automata!!

[@franciscopenajr3909]

7:38 Is it because that bastard is dipping the nugget in multiple sauces?

[@grimgrahamch.4157]

I don't think I ever clicked on a video so fast

[@Rej278]

Gwimbly's entire story arc is just Banjo Kazooie's history

[@birdybirdy3251]

Oh boy,you heard the pain and suffering of a gamer in that aaaaaashhhh

[@BROXBasher]

They’re also adding Joker to MultiVersus when it comes back out.

[@tonybippitykaye]

I remember hearing that James (the jerk who ripped off Charlie’s nose) was apparently the person Gwimbly was making the cameo for. If that’s the case, either he moved from Idaho to Pennsylvania or he literally drove across the country just to give Charlie hell. I’d like to think it was the latter with just how ridiculous this show can be 😂

[@a.r.h9919]

Agreed

[@wozing]

7:07 I felt that in my soul.

[@drockwell1583]

I can’t believe they got the rights to the Gwimbly. I loved those games as a kid,Gwimbly 64 was wild.

[@evilmeowmeow1909]

lol the escape from tarkov drama mention

[@chimpolad5064]

I hate how after this episode came out all these fake Gwimbly fans started streaming Gwimbly 3D of Twitch

[@HaughtyToast]

For real, they always pick Gwimbly 3D because it's the most popular. Then they go and ignore classics like Gwimbly Advanced: Corn-ucopia and spinoffs like Gwimbly Racing: The A-Maize-ing Circuit. Where's the love for the obscure when it comes to Gwimbly?

[@V15.12]

Classic zack hadel humor , too bad she dont really appreciate it

[@andrewbarrientos8394]

You know? With the addition of Banjo in smash, I always thought having Gwimbly would be a good idea. After all, both Banjo and Gwimbly were intented to appear in a crossover planned for the Nintendo Gamecube, but Microsoft's acquisition of Rare made the development of this game to be cancelled. I hope he appears in the next installment of Smash, either as a character or a MII costume, but definitely as a character, since Gwimbly would be the first to have a moveset entirely based on Cream Corn, with his final smash being the Gwimbly Gun, and his iconic dance both as a taunt and victory pose.

[@kalashydra9016]

7:15 chicken nugget is 5 dollar dlc per piece lmao

[@jasontoddybro]

why are y'all reading the subtitles while watching it if y'all native speakers

[@tabbottinator]

I recommend watching the Very special digital circus song. It's a hilarious advert.

[@sandrafunacc1]

Oh dang, haven't thought about the Gwimbly games in a A HOT minute. Those are pretty retro!

[@JudasCrusader]

I hope you have a good day Alicia. Thanks for the vids.

[@Scream_Lord]

With you (slowly) making your way through the TTS Emperor series I'd love to see you react to Bruva Alfabusa's Hunter the Parenting series which is a sort of spiritual successor to TTS set in the World of Darkness franchise. Tho I would wait until your a decent ways into TTS first as some of the characters are analogues to ones in that series. AND I would suggest watching Gothic Horror RPGs set in your Hometown - An Intro To World Of Darkness first as it's a decent primer into what the WoD franchise.

[@broccoliben7961]

Was this intentionally uploaded to YT first before Patreon?

[@AliceIzuragi6291]

what escape from tarkov devs did reminds me of how th game asuras wrath ending is locked behind a dlc. speaking of that game. there is a emulation for it for the ps3 emulator. apparently the ps2 couldnt run asuras wrath at full graphics quality. but with the ps3 emulator. game looks really good.

[@reygaucin2205]

I wished nintendo added gwimbly to smash bros ultimate, I remember unlocking him in melee, it was so hard trying to get the secret cream corn hidden item in adventure mode

[@wispyshore4874]

The reason they have season 2 on a different streaming service is because they're all owned by the same people and want people to subscribe to multiple services if you aren't already

[@g1rldraco7]

Now I cant stop thinking about Azu in a maids outfit...........................

[@slicked9778]

OOOOH OOOOOH OOOOOHH!!!

GUESS IM OOGLY GOO

[@hazz1337]

Wait, how did they actually get the Gwimbly IP in the show? WTF??????

[@isuapig6705]

I’m watching this for the first time with Alicia and azu!

[@FrozenTaro]

Based Alicia back at it again

[@BLANKERAMA]

love how there's no voice chat channel on the discord server

[@Aquarius-zz6bo]

Alica, PLEASE WATCH A SUMMARY VIDEO OF THE POPPY PLAYTIME LORE! I know you played Chapter 1 but let me tell you, this Tory is incredibly dark and sad. Children were tortured and experimented on. Now they you them each and every chapter. Every chapter your fighting another child who had there life stolen away, now they are hungry. And it’s your fault

[@ChezaWR]

I enjoy Alan a lot.

[@Darkshade_01]

Cool

[@Hydratz]

plz look at xmen 97 !

[@V15.12]

Agreed , its the new invincible

[@blakejohnson8310]

8:10 talking about Escape from Tarkov scamming people. I actually purchased it and never got the game

[@spideygaming2001]

please watch epithet erased

[@lazydude2774]

I knew Alicia was gonna be weird at 11:32

[@lil_toxi-8165]

It is here yeeees
