I think the last time I read an actual, original Garfield comic was in 1998. Since then, my experience of the character…
In Gar-Type, a free Gorefield fangame from Youtuber and pixel artist LumpyTouch, Garfield has become a planet. The good news is that, unlike many other Gore-variants, this Gorefield is vulnerable to bullets. It falls to ace pilot Jon Starbuckle and his prototype starfighter, Gar-Type D, to save the Earth from lasagnnihilation.
Unfortunately, it has only a mouse control schema, which is fine if you’re playing it on a desktop PC, though annoyingly fiddly if you are trying to play on a Steam Deck.
