Newman added that Garry's Mod would have a new update soon.
"I know this isn’t exactly Minecraft's 2.9 million," Newman posted, "But this is a pretty big deal for me considering this all started off as a tiny tiny modification about 6 years ago."
Regarding the update, Newman added, "I did plan to release a big secret update I’ve been working on when we hit 1mil. But it’s not ready – you guys beat me to it."
The best known use for Garry's Mod is for webcomics such as Concerned: The Life and Death of Gordon Frohman.
