The last free version of Garry's Mod remained available for download, rechristened as the demo to the retail game. Valve and Facepunch later struck a publishing agreement wherein Valve would release Garry's Mod onto Steam at a price of US$10, while the two companies would equally split profits. Valve, the developers of Source and Half-Life 2, contacted Newman to suggest a commercial, standalone release of the mod through their digital distribution service Steam, which Newman initially rejected. Newman's one-man operation grew to a team of multiple people for a remake of the mod as a standalone game. Through 20, Newman released several updated versions of Garry's Mod, adding new features and culminating in version 9.0.4 on 27 November 2005. Newman did not recognise that the game was gaining in popularity until he set up an online forum for it.

However, the increasing positive reception led Newman to continue development. Initial feedback was polarised, with some players criticising the mod for its similarity to an existing mod, JBMod. The first iteration of the mod, version 1, was released on 24 December 2004.

He stated that, at the time, his skills in computer programming were not advanced enough to create a full Source-based game and he resorted to the mod format.

Newman soon found more enjoyment in developing Garry's Mod than in maintaining Facewound, so development on Facewound was mostly halted (and put on indefinite hiatus in 2004) for him to focus on Garry's Mod. While developing his first game, Facewound, Garry's Mod became a side-project of his as a mod for the Source game engine and, principally, the game Half-Life 2. He was later fired when he launched his own dating website. He did this as a hobby, simultaneous to his occupation as a PHP programmer for a dating website. He started developing games under the studio name Facepunch Studios after dropping out of college, at the time out of his parents' house. Garry's Mod was created by the video game programmer Garry Newman.
