Writting this way past the prime of this game but I just had to tell my story. I bought this game durring the 2020 lockdown as part of the lasagna bundle, I played the original garfield kart and really enjoyed it, on some elements even more than Furious Racing, but I stuck with this one because it just overall felt better. I even joined discord servers to play with people, that's how much I enjoyed the game. After a whlle, I decided I should get all achievement on it since it's so great and I wanted to prove my "gratitude" in a way. I then got every achievement, except 3, the three last ones. "Just gotta play a bit more" I thought. One day, I invite a friend to play the game with me to show him its greatness, we select the characters and I don't know what he did but it made the game crash. I thought "oh well it's nothing" but then I relaunch the game and when I go to the character select screen, the models don't show up and I only see the sky and the clouds in the background, and I can't go back to the menu so I'm locked. "Just gotta uninstall and reinstall right" I thought. It didn't work. I tried EVERYTHING, I even changed operating systems multiple times, didn't run on arch with Wine, reinstalled windows, still didn't work. For 5 years. 5 years I couldn't play Garfield Kart - Furious Racing. Those were the worst years of my life: loneliness, school pressure, depression, one of my best friends ghosted me, feeling left out socially, wanting to kill myself, daily dissociation, etc, etc... My steam friends would sometimes see notifications of me lauching the game ten times in a row, thinking "This time, it'll work !" only to not see them for months, like the screams of a man burnt by his rage, only to be quiet forever. I thought I'd never be able to play this game again. But last week, last week was different... As I usually do every year, I desperately went to the discussion section to search for someone with the same problems as me, and found [url=https://steamcommunity.com/app/1085510/discussions/0/2792747051061576400/]this thread . The guy had the exact same issue as me. I was shocked because this was the first time I saw someone who had the same issue, and so as every thread I scroll down past the cringe developper message and the othermessages of people saying they has this issue, and see the last message, I do what he says AND IT WORKS !!!!! I almost couldn't believe it, but it deleted my save. I made a backup a while ago but I lost it after switching operating systems. But I didn't care. And so I grinded, this whole week, I got every puzzle piece, I finished first at every Grand prix despite the AI being absolutely over powered in this game, I got a gold time on every track, I unlocked back EVERYTHING I had lost. So, as of today, January twenty-second two thousand twenty-five, the day I'm writting this review, I got every success for the game. What a ride... Looking back at all of this it's kind of funny now, when I was young I would say "I'm never gonna make it past 20, I'd probably kill myself before anyway", and I'm gonna turn 20 this year, and althought I feel complete with myself, with such a great start of a year, I guess I'll live a bit longer to enjoy life as a man who could see life throught the lenses of a man that 100%ed garfield kart. Be not mistaken by the funny reviews, this game is actually very good, it feels way more chaotic than any mario kart I've played control wise but it feels really good once you can actually handle all of that speed. You do have some "unfair" deaths sometimes but you can kind of manage them, so the gameplay is about how much you're willing to let chaos affect your driving in a way which makes it very fun, it's all about high risk high reward. But the servers are clearly dead so you'd have to find a good discord server or people to play with through "steam's remote play togheter" feature, you could also call me if you'd like, maybe I'd answer, but be careful because I never lose ;) btw it's written "Furious Racing" with a capital 'R' at the top of the page but next to the "add to kart" button it's written "Furious Racing" with a lowercase 'r', Valve please fix.

this game is so unbalanced, so clunky, so buggy, so jarring and frustrating to play. but i always come back to it for you, Garfield... š¦ š©š¬š³š¢ š¶š¬š² š¤ššÆš£š¦š¢š©š” but seriously though oh my god this game has no scaling or caps on anything you can literally crash out from the dumbest things but most commonly just by going too fast and either hitting a wall then your car flips over and you respawn (happens a lot more than you think). the CPU is totally unfair and will literally get a random god given burst of speed that helps them either catch up to your if you're ahead or leaves you in the dust. this game is deceptively difficult but a chaotically enjoyable experience that will leave Garfield imprinted in my brain probably for the rest of my life. ...š² šµšøšæš® ššøš¾ š°šŖš»šÆš²š®šµš

I never thought a kart racing game could change my life, but Garfield Kart: Furious Racing did just that. This game became more than just a way to pass the time; it became an anchor in my life when I was at my lowest. As I faced personal battles with addiction and struggled with dark thoughts, something about the gameās simplicity, humor, and lighthearted charm pulled me out of that void. Racing alongside Garfield, Odie, and Jon became a reminder to not take life too seriously, to laugh, and to focus on small victories. When I was feeling down, the game helped lift me up. Garfield Kart: Furious Racing might not be a ācure,ā but it gave me an outlet, a reason to smile, and, surprisingly, a little bit of hope. Iād recommend it to anyone needing an escape or just some lighthearted funāit might just change your life too.

it is the best game God has given us in the history of mankind. Cavemen could not have even perceived the amount of joy given from booting up this amazing game. Christopher Columbus, when he came to the Americas, he saw the natives playing the earliest written record of this game, at version -3. God has given us this game to show His grace and mercy to this forsaken planet.

I have played the previous installment in the "Garfield Kart" series, and I must say I was very disappointed. I have been a lifelong fan of Garfield, and when I booted it up I was confused. There was a window that popped up showcasing the options for screen size and inputs. I was utterly confused. "Why not have easy to use controls already built into the game? Is Garfield doing this to spite me?" I said to myself. I couldn't bother to change the inputs, as I thought it did not matter. But once I started a race, I found my unbothered attitude towards the inputs come back for me. I had no idea how to use the items, and the arrow keys as the default way to turn angered me. Over and over and over, I watched Garfield lose the race against his friends and foes. I cried for hours. I was forced to watch Garfield cast aside the podium, saddened by my inability to help him win the race. I felt I had failed him. I refused to even boot up my computer for numerous years, with the lingering thought in the back of my mind that I had failed my hero. "I am the scum of the earth, why didn't I change the inputs?" For the entirety of my high school years, 9th through 12th grade, I woke up, went to school, came home and cried. I rarely did any homework, I couldn't focus and/or learn anything new, knowing that I made Garfield lose the race. Even at my graduation, I had a big frown on my face knowing I didn't change the inputs on Garfield Kart. It was thanksgiving 2018. I was at my younger cousin's house. When it was time for dinner, everyone was chatting and having fun, while I sat in the corner, staring at the floor. My cousin walked up to me, "Why did you even come here? You aren't talking, what's the matter with you?" I told him about what happened with Garfield. "Well, there is another version of Garfield Kart, you know." I stood up quickly, everyone looking at me. I dragged my cousin into his room. "WHAT OTHER VERSION?!" I asked. "It's on 3DS." He said vaguely, then walked back to the dining room. I left thanksgiving early that year. I drove to my local game-stop and, to my luck, there was a copy of the game. I drove home as fast as I could. I was the happiest I've been in years. I ran through the storm door, shattering it. Glass was all over the floor, and shards were in my arm. As my arms were bleeding, I opened my 3DS, and put in the game. There was no window asking for inputs or window size. I was hyperventilating. I started a race, and too my surprise, I won. I helped Garfield win the race. I was crying tears of happiness. Sadly, my neighbor called the police after seeing me run through my storm door. While in the ambulance, I was playing Garfield Kart, on the go? I realized that I could play Garfield Kart wherever I desired, and this cured my years of depression. At my job as a cashier at Walmart, I would play Garfield Kart. I would play Garfield Kart at full volume in public, with no shame. As I was shopping for groceries, I would wear headphones plugged into my 3DS, and have the main menu music playing. I was obsessed with Garfield. On one fateful day, a homeless man walked up to me in my car while at a stoplight, trying to wash my windows to get change. I, playing Garfield Kart, didn't notice him. I ran him over. Someone called the police on me, and I was arrested for negligent homicide. In prison, I would tell my story about how depressed I was because of Garfield, and how my cousin helped me cure my sadness. Luckily, nobody tried to penetrate me because they thought I was, "Too slow" and "Felt bad for me"...whatever that means. I just now got back from my 5 years in prison. My father was paying my rent since I was in prison. I walked into my room, and logged onto dust ridden computer. I was browsing around on steam, looking for any new games that came out since I ran over that homeless person. I jumped out of my chair when I stumbled upon this game, I cried tears of joy. I bought it and downloaded it. Once I opened it, a window popped up. Telling me to plug in a controller. I remembered the old window about inputs and screen size. I was shocked. I plugged in my Xbox One controller, and started a race. There were icons showing me what buttons to press, for example: how to use an item in front AND behind you. I won the race. I have redeemed myself. I thank God for blessing me, I also thank Jim Davis for blessing me with the Garfield franchise. I know life will get better from this day forward. would recommend
