''Garfield: Caught in the Act'' is a Platform Game starring the comic strip cat, Garfield . The game, developed by Sega , was released in 1995 for the Genesis/Mega Drive and Game Gear , and in 1996 was released for Windows . The game was also released for PCs in the '' Sonic & Garfield Pack '', along with '' Sonic & Knuckles '' and '' Baku Baku ''. All the Sprites were created by Garfield creator Jim Davis and Hand-drawn by Davis and the Garfield artists at Paws. A port for the Sega 32X was planned, called ''Garfield in TV Land'', but it was cancelled. STORY Odie scares Garfield while he is watching Television , and the cat ends up falling on the TV set. In a rushed effort to repair the television, Garfield and Odie attempt to put the banged up and broken pieces together. They did actually put something together, but it was far from being a real television set. As Garfield throws away the "spare pieces", they become an electronic monster, the Glitch, that transports Garfield into the TV. GAMEPLAY The game is a typical platformer, with Garfield being able to attack enemies up close or throw objects at them (the close-range weapons and objects thrown change between each game, and one in which Garfield flies through a tunnel, trying to grab Pookies for an extra life or continue (similar to the Sonic 2 special level). The following items are found in the game:

Game Gear The levels of the Game Gear version, interestingly, included two of the "Lost Levels".Garfield does not have different outfits in each level, and his close-range attack is a simple punch, and the projectile are stones. Both punching and throwing weapons are set to the same button, the result depends on whether or not an enemy is in front of Garfield. Also, Garfield is able to walk and run in this version. Simply hold a direction and he will walk. Tap a direction twice (and hold it on the second tap) for him to run. There are no invincibility items. There is only one type of bonus stage (accessed by finding an icon of Arlene's face in each level), in which you try to wreck everything in Jon's living room within a time limit to get an extra life. In the between-level segments, you do not take damage from the obstacles; instead, they teleport you back to the start of that segment.
PC In the PC Demo , there is half of "Cave Cat" and "Cleofatra". In the full game, the levels are:
