Developer Jokes & References

Discover hidden developer jokes and references within Garry's Mod. Learn about the game's quirky details and Easter eggs that make the sandbox experience even more fun.

Hey there! So, you're diving into Garry's Mod and want to know about some of the fun little secrets the devs tucked away? While Garry's Mod is mostly about your own creativity, it's built on Valve's [Source engine](https://gmod.fandom.com/wiki/Source_Engine "Source Engine"), and sometimes that means you'll find little nods and winks. Keep an eye out as you explore different maps and contraptions. Sometimes, a map name or an item might be a subtle reference to something else. For instance, the [Rp Downtown v2](https://gmod.fandom.com/wiki/Rp_Downtown_v2 "Rp Downtown v2") map is mentioned as a really well-known DarkRP map, and while not a joke, it's a significant part of the community's history. This wiki is a great place to learn more, with sections like the [Manual](https://gmod.fandom.com/wiki/Manual "Manual") and [Contraptions](https://gmod.fandom.com/wiki/Contraptions "Contraptions"). If you're curious about the wiki itself, the [About](https://gmod.fandom.com/wiki/Garry%27s_Mod_Wiki:About "Garry's Mod Wiki:About") page and the [tutorial](https://community.fandom.com/wiki/Help:Tutorial_1 "wikia:Help:Tutorial 1") are super helpful. Remember, the best part of Garry's Mod is discovering things for yourself. Happy experimenting!
