Instead, it used an engine called GrimE (Grim Engine), which was based upon the [http://www.lua.org/ Lua] open-source scripting language. The game follows Manny Calavera, a grim reaper for the Department of Death in the Land of the Dead. He learns that the system he works for is corrupt, after a woman who led a great life, Mercedes (Meche) Colomar, doesn't get to go straight to the seventh level of the afterlife, the land of eternal rest. Manny must take a four-year journey to find out who's behind the corruption, find Meche, and earn himself a place in the land of eternal rest. | ||
== | ==Current status in ScummVM== | ||
The ResidualVM GrimE engine is being merged into ScummVM. | |||
In the stable builds of ResidualVM, Grim Fandango was completable and fully playable but there may still be some bugs and glitches. | |||
There are also a few things that aren't implemented at all, or doesn't work right yet: | |||
* Aspect ratio in fullscreen mode | |||
* Lighting not working properly | |||
ScummVM will however also fix some bugs present in the original game. See [[GrimE/Grim Fandango Original Bugs]] for a list. | |||
