The best interpretation I've seen is that Garfield hates Mondays because Jon had to go to work. Of course, we never see Jon at work, and he is a comic strip writer, and appears to work at home in the early strips. But, still, it's something. And it's sweet.
Garfield hated Mondays because it's a relatable trait. Garfield was never supposed to be funny, he's just supposed to be relatable. So he hates Mondays.
@@Ren_J Nine inch nails is a metal band. Midis are a type of audio file known for being easily translatable into other instruments, but also sounding kinda garbage. Someone got MIDI files of songs and put them in this game, either in the title screen or the farty music in the actual game.
"I have always wondered why Garfield hates Mondays when every day is pretty much the same for him, but Davis had the answer. “Garfield does not have a job, Garfield does not go to school and every day is the same. Nevertheless every Monday is just a reminder that his life is the same old, same old cycling again and for some reason even though his life is pretty much the same every day on Mondays specifically, awful things tend to happen to him physically.”" So, basically, Garfield is physically abused on Mondays, so that's why he hates them.
just read some of the comics, Monday is treated like a living entity, every Monday it would throw a pie in Garfield's face, cause him to trip, drop a piano on him, cause Nermal to come for a visit, etc
Maybe Jon has Multiple Personality Disorder that goes off only on Mondays. And on those days, Jon becomes an asshole to Garfield, and in the following days, he doesn't remember what happened. God, this sounds so stupid.
i would have to say that garfield standing up and saying "God, I'm hungry," with _that_ expression on his face and _that_ music playing is maybe the best way to start a game possible.
Garfield hated Mondays because he was house cat and was too proud to say that he would miss John, his owner, when he would leave for work after having had him around all weekend. But otherwise, yes, this was a pretty poor game. [Edit: I was mistaken. John's occupation in cannon is a cartoonist who works at home. Garfield's dislike of Mondays is still not quite explained except that it is a silly thing for a cat to specifically dislike.]
There are some very neat gems made on that game. And they're all free, at least as far as I know. There's no legal reason not to charge for them, but no one buys adventure games anymore. I tried the software once and it's incredibly versatile. I even managed to make a couple of puzzles, like a memory game, all within the software's tools.
Check out the Wadjet Eye games. Those are not free, but the Blackwell series is an amazing series of adventure games made in AGS. And the last one has some of the best 320x240 resolution art you'll see in a game.
AGS was and still is awesome. Anyone know if there's anything more recent like it? Would be cool to have an engine like that but which supports higher screen resolutions for instance.
The newest version of AGS (3.4.0) actually supports custom resolutions, up to HD ones. ;) Not to mention some other nifty things (removing the GUI limits!!) and scripting editor fixes/updates.
Ian's snare rage at 9:25 goes from a little silly to oh damn he means it to just plain ridiculous. 9:40 is the new thumbnail for every video. No negotiations.
Garfield has no job, he doesn't have to go to school, he has no responsibilities whatsoever. And, even so, he hates Mondays, a weekday, that should be like any other. What is hidden beneath the Gorfs hatred of this weekday? Is it a traumatic experience? Maybe the death of his beloved girlfriend Lasaga happened on a monday. Or, even more probably, every Monday he is beat to the brink of exhaustion by John, whom funnels his rage over the start of the new weekday onto his pet, thus creating a negative stigma over the day inside of the snoozing animal. We might never know. We might also never care.
chadoftoons “Garfield does not have a job, Garfield does not go to school and every day is the same. Nevertheless every Monday is just a reminder that his life is the same old, same old cycling again and for some reason even though his life is pretty much the same every day on Mondays specifically, awful things tend to happen to him physically.” *Jon* does't abuse Garfield ever. As a matter of fact in that interview he says Garfield abuses Jon a bit. Stuff just seems to happen to Garfield on Mondays.
one reason Garfield hates Monday is because something always seems to happen to him there, like bad luck. This can be shown by one of the comics where jon asks why Garfield hates Mondays, and Garfield shows jon his face... after he got hit with a pie.
The Drunken Coward Well,john is a graphic artist so he doesn't follow a regular work schedule. I believe Garfit has made a deal with Binky(the unholy demon from the 5th dimension) to grant him and his friends(the only people that care and provide him)immortality,but in exchange he is cursed to be tortured in amusing ways by the universe every monday.
Seriously Moose, your talent for finding *the* most obscure games never fails to astound me lol. Anyway, LOVE this video! I was always a big fan of Garfield, at least the animated versions, though I read the comics too - I think it was mostly for the art rather than the jokes though lol. Also - and I hope it's ok to say this - I thought you were perfect this time around! You came across 100% natural and relaxed, the pacing and timing on everything hit every mark. So whatever you were trying out to seem more natural I think it worked! I hope that actually does sound like a good thing, cuz I don't think you were unnatural before, I guess you just seemed more into it this time or something? Ugh, I was struggling with this same dilemma the other day on whether or not to tell my friend who I know has been trying to get into shape that it looks like he'd really lost weight. It's like you want to congratulate them and encourage them but you don't wanna imply you thought they were fat before e__e Aw man........ well whatever, great video! lol
that was seriously top-notch mugging; both when you perfectly mimicked Jon's inhumane all-tooth grimace, and at the end when the heinous snare drum sample finally integrated fully into your soul and transmogrified you into a legitimately chaos-possessed unfortunate.
Wait. In the comics, Jon's mom makes food so good, it was literally a gift in one of the Christmas comics. Meanwhile in this game her special soup tastes so bad, it kills a mutant lasagna. That doesn't make any sense
I can always count on Ian to show me a game I'd never heard about before make me love how easy and fun it is to make fun of it. Moose, if you're reading this, I always enjoy your sarcastic takes on these random silly PC games. Keep up the good work.
Man, PilotRedSun is the best channel on TH-cam. I showed all his videos to my friends long before his channel blew up, and I miss how his stuff used to sort of be our inside joke that nobody else knew about, but I'm more happy that his genius is being recognized by a greater audience.
The writing really fits Garfield Honestly. He was the type who didn't care about anything... except food. Also this video was Splendid Ian! The jokes were hilarious!!!
honestly, while the creator has some trouble with grammar every now and then, I think this game really captures the spirit of the Garfield cartoon. Even some of the "moon logic" honestly wouldn't look out of place in the mild weirdness of that cartoon. They clearly put a lot of effort into it and if you took this plot it'd fit right in. They were more ambitious than their skills for music or graphic design allowed but honestly, with some polish this would actually be pretty legit.
I declare that, from now on, every game based on a licensed property should open with the main character tapdancing along a fence while the sounds of someone having a mental breakdown in Anvil Studio plays in the background.
for the longest time, i was thinking this video was a fever dream I had, and I have been subscribed to this channel since the SHADOW THE HEDGEHOG VIDEO! I've been lying to myself saying this isnt real. but here we are, and its where we are is beautiful
I fondly remember this Moose video more than most others, it was the first one I saw after I got finished with a month-long hospital stay and I laughed so hard I nearly threw up on the floor. ❤️❤️❤️
I've seen this video a few times but this is the first time I've seen it was made in AGS. The quality of the animations and backgrounds is actually nuts for an AGS project.
The best interpretation I've seen is that Garfield hates Mondays because Jon had to go to work.
Of course, we never see Jon at work, and he is a comic strip writer, and appears to work at home in the early strips.
But, still, it's something. And it's sweet.
ZipplyZane no it’s because all bad stuff happens to him on mondays
My too I suffer the bad case of the Monday
ZipplyZane, has on Monday’s, extremely bad coincidences occur to Garfield.
Aww
Garfield hated Mondays because it's a relatable trait. Garfield was never supposed to be funny, he's just supposed to be relatable. So he hates Mondays.
The background music is a midi getting violently bludgeoned with a a recorder piano.
6:45
Okay, I'll admit. I laughed at the fact that you just ignore Jon's terror and raid the fridge. Seems pretty in character.
Never make mention of that background music ever again.
replying to this so you can get a notification reminding you about the background music
Logan Chellman they can disable those notifications, you do know that, right...?
hey are we still talking about that background music?
Hey, have you heard this background music?

*GARFIELD YOU LAZY CAT*
THIS GAME USES NINE INCH NAILS MIDIS
Wat the fuk
THIS IS THE FUNNIEST COMMENT I HAVE EVER SEEN
What.
Please help, I'm confused, what does this mean?
@@Ren_J Nine inch nails is a metal band. Midis are a type of audio file known for being easily translatable into other instruments, but also sounding kinda garbage.
Someone got MIDI files of songs and put them in this game, either in the title screen or the farty music in the actual game.
"I have always wondered why Garfield hates Mondays when every day is pretty much the same for him, but Davis had the answer. “Garfield does not have a job, Garfield does not go to school and every day is the same.

So, basically, Garfield is physically abused on Mondays, so that's why he hates them.
Jon is a dick. And possibly a murderer.
just read some of the comics, Monday is treated like a living entity, every Monday it would throw a pie in Garfield's face, cause him to trip, drop a piano on him, cause Nermal to come for a visit, etc
Maybe Jon has Multiple Personality Disorder that goes off only on Mondays. And on those days, Jon becomes an asshole to Garfield, and in the following days, he doesn't remember what happened.
God, this sounds so stupid.
Jordan3D How did you conclude that Jon abuses Garfield based on that paragraph??? If anything, he's spoiled him absolutely rotten
look at garfield without garfield website, jon has multiple personalities, but mostly depression and self-doubt
Mutant lasagna, more like *CREEPYPASTA*
I'll go now...
....
I get it
Let me help you there.

Please get out of my house
Yes, go......

I need a gif of 3:06 and him walking backwards please.
YES
i would have to say that garfield standing up and saying "God, I'm hungry," with _that_ expression on his face and _that_ music playing is maybe the best way to start a game possible.
Garfield:I gotta have a good meal.
THREEIO GARFIELD YOU FAT CAT
Time for a nap, I'm a cat who loves to snooze
UR SUCH A BAD KITTEE
I ATE THOSE FOOD
Woah
The music is someone trying to start a car that gets so close to starting, and the whole thing is played through a clownbutt.
your voice is very relaxing
Thank you!
brutalmoose not sure that warrants an exclamation point.
IIyana08 especially cause or my anxiety, he's very calming
IIyana08 Brutal moose asmr
IIyana08 Compared to the game's soundtrack, at least.

Doesn't John work from home?
I mean he's a freelance cartoonist
@@H4rppy ... oh dear. That is correct. I completely forgot.
No, the worst stuff happens to him on Mondays
All wrong, Garfield hated Mondays because the writer thought it was a relatable trait. That's it.
Bad things always happen to him on Mondays
I love AGS! Fond memories. Funny, I think there are handful of games made in it that are actually not absolutely terrible.
I'd never heard of AGS before this game, but I got to look into it a bit and it actually looks like a pretty fun way to make a game.
There are some very neat gems made on that game. And they're all free, at least as far as I know. There's no legal reason not to charge for them, but no one buys adventure games anymore.
I tried the software once and it's incredibly versatile. I even managed to make a couple of puzzles, like a memory game, all within the software's tools.

1:14 the most likely reason Garfield hates Monday is that John has to go to work and Garfield misses him
This should've been released on a monday.
Ian's snare rage at 9:25 goes from a little silly to oh damn he means it to just plain ridiculous.
9:40 is the new thumbnail for every video. No negotiations.
You are eating us out of house and home, G A R M F I E L D .
9:35 this is why i love brutalmoose. He's a pearfect mix of seriousness and whater tf that face was.
Ian's hair was so great this episode I didn't actually pay attention to the video, I just stared at his hair for 10 minutes. Good content.
I've seen this episode at least 10 times. I think this is my favourite.
Garfield has no job, he doesn't have to go to school, he has no responsibilities whatsoever.
And, even so, he hates Mondays, a weekday, that should be like any other.
What is hidden beneath the Gorfs hatred of this weekday?
Is it a traumatic experience?
Maybe the death of his beloved girlfriend Lasaga happened on a monday. Or, even more probably, every Monday he is beat to the brink of exhaustion by John, whom funnels his rage over the start of the new weekday onto his pet, thus creating a negative stigma over the day inside of the snoozing animal.
We might never know.
We might also never care.
The person that came up with garfield said that mondays are where garfield takes the most physical abuse by jon and that is why he hates them

Looking very normal, or is it very nermal?

hey mr moose, i just wanted to say you are my favorite channel on youtube. every time you make a video it brightens my day up, so keep being awesome!
So many Garfielf comments as I have expected.
I love it.

Jerry Roberts "Yeah that's him, wait no no no"
Who's TheLegend27?
Some say TheLegend27 is the first Game of War player ever.
Alcendence the legend27 was born in fire
moose's hair did a really cute thing around 7:25

i like how ian suffered for our entertainment
My favorite strip was when Jon told Garfild to put p size teth paste on his tethbrush.
Dragontuna "Yes it is"
(That's the only quote I can remember)
Garfild thats not p sisd
(p sis)
when did JonTron do this? And isn't his pet a bird named Jacques?
allfarewells This has nothing to do with JonTron.
that was seriously top-notch mugging; both when you perfectly mimicked Jon's inhumane all-tooth grimace, and at the end when the heinous snare drum sample finally integrated fully into your soul and transmogrified you into a legitimately chaos-possessed unfortunate.
oh my god this game is a CATastrophe
you are truly a god

Wait. In the comics, Jon's mom makes food so good, it was literally a gift in one of the Christmas comics. Meanwhile in this game her special soup tastes so bad, it kills a mutant lasagna. That doesn't make any sense
Legend says that one day a war of the Tubers will break out.
Also Jon looks surprisingly normal.
Tell me more about this "War of the Tubers" because I'm interested.
I’ve not seen such bravery
For a fan game, this looked pretty good. With it's cryptic confusing riddles, it felt like a real point and click game.
Six years since this review came out and i still frequently say "god I'm hungry" and "let me doubt it" in my regular speech.
I eat Ian is what I do
I can always count on Ian to show me a game I'd never heard about before make me love how easy and fun it is to make fun of it. Moose, if you're reading this, I always enjoy your sarcastic takes on these random silly PC games. Keep up the good work.
9:41 WHAT THE HELL IS THAT FACE?!?!?!?
Darius the fat Rex idk but I want it
Thank you Ian your great and watching your videos has really helped me through a tough time. Keep on being you.
The title of this sounds amazing.
Well, maybe you should just watch it then....
Well .. I saw you under Vinesauces Video ...
Always good to see a video from you. Nice to watch after work.
should have released this video on a monday
Man, PilotRedSun is the best channel on TH-cam. I showed all his videos to my friends long before his channel blew up, and I miss how his stuff used to sort of be our inside joke that nobody else knew about, but I'm more happy that his genius is being recognized by a greater audience.
l a s a g a
I'm glad to see Ian loves Garfield as much as I do. Not many people appreciate Garfield these days, but I'll always love him.
Well now I have something to tell my grandchildren
The writing really fits Garfield Honestly. He was the type who didn't care about anything... except food.
Also this video was Splendid Ian! The jokes were hilarious!!!
What is the "I've not seen such bravery!" clip from?
Timothy E. gauntlet
Gauntlet, the game.
Dude Ian's house/apartment looks so fucking nice.
you're eating us out of house and home, GARMFIELD
honestly, while the creator has some trouble with grammar every now and then, I think this game really captures the spirit of the Garfield cartoon. Even some of the "moon logic" honestly wouldn't look out of place in the mild weirdness of that cartoon. They clearly put a lot of effort into it and if you took this plot it'd fit right in.
They were more ambitious than their skills for music or graphic design allowed but honestly, with some polish this would actually be pretty legit.
Garfeilf you bad kitty.
Your humor is like Gardfield. Dry and sarcastic, and I love it

don't do it, Garfield

Other people's hair was not bothering me at all in other episodes
I've seen this video a few times but this is the first time I've seen it was made in AGS.
The quality of the animations and backgrounds is actually nuts for an AGS project.
That soundtrack will be in my mixtape.
Gonna call it ear and mind rape

Man, I really enjoy your videos, Ian. Thanks for all the hard work!
Ooh, Alolan Persian got his own video game. Neat.

brutalmoose... your editing style inspired me when I was younger to make my channel. thank you soooo much for what you do. 😊
Has 3:13 gotten the GIF treatment anywhere?
I'm loving the regular uploads Ian, it makes my weekend just a bit brighter. Also your hair was amazing what are you talking about? :P
PilotRedSun's Garfield video is my aesthetic.
To be fair to the soundtrack, maybe it sounded better on an older soundcard that had a more 16 bit-ish version of MIDI instruments.
Sometimes its best to just delete the music files from a game.....or replace them.
I can't be the only one who thinks this would have been a great premise for an official Garfield PC Adventure/Point and Click game.
Your hair is totally awesome in this episode.
That soundtrack is a vibe and you shouldn’t have touched it.
I’m sorry jon.
(Insert spooky zalgo text here)
This game apparently takes roughly 15 Hours to beat on a single playthrough.
its stuck in my head, help me
I've embraced it; downloaded all the songs I could find.
The leg hitch was awesome though
fun fact this wasnt uploaded Monday :(
You seemed a lot more animated in this video... Loved it!
Your hair has been tremendously affected by the Mutant Lasagna soundtrack today.
I think it was implied at one point that Garfield hates mondays because Jon is gone, or something like that.
No Ian, today is not Monday
I always look forward to a new brutalmoose video!
