Garry's Mod, the ever-iconic sandbox gem from Facepunch Studios and Valve, is undeniably a genre giant – but its creator, Garry Newman, didn't initially think it would be.
Speaking to PC Gamer in a recent interview, Newman recalls that his expectations for GMod at launch were actually quite low – lower than the some 25 million copies it's sold, anyway.
"When Garry's Mod released," he says, "my expectation was, best case scenario, to make about $30,000. And then [I'd] have to start working on something else the next year." Boy, did things not turn out that way in the end.
