Garry's Mod

Profile picture for user Blevar

Although Garry's Mod is usually considered to be a full game, it has no game objective and players can use the game's set of tools for any purpose. Garry's Mod allows players to manipulate "props" – various objects that players can place in-game. Props can be selected from any installed Source engine game or from a community created collection. The game features two "guns" – Physics Gun and Tool Gun for manipulating objects. The Physics Gun allows objects to be picked up, adjusted and frozen in place. The Tool Gun is a multi-purpose tool for performing various tasks, such as combining props, attaching them via ropes, and creating controllable winches and wheels. The Tool Gun is also used to control add-ons created by the community.

Another popular Garry's Mod concept is ragdoll posing. The player can create a ragdoll model from a Source game and pose it using a variety of tools. This is a popular tool for making fan-made videos.

Garry's Mod takes advantage of the Source engine's modified version of the Havok Physics Engine,[6] which allows players to build contraptions that follow the laws of physics.
