==About ScummVM for the GP32==


The port of ScummVM to the GP32 is one of the baby ports in so much as the GP32 has only 8MB of RAM making it one of the most ham-strung of the all the supported platforms. In order to make best use of the limited resources on the GP32 ScummVM uses a totally custom backend for the platform (not the more common SDL approach).
