=== About Residual ===
=== About Residual ===
Residual is a [http://www.lua.org LUA]-powered 3D GRIME clone, designed to run the game [[Grim Fandango]].
Residual is a [http://www.scummvm.org ScummVM] sub-project to play [[LucasArts]]' [http://www.lua.org LUA]-based 3D adventures, such as [[Grim Fandango]].  
Why 'Residual'? Because this engine covers games that the main [http://www.scummvm.org ScummVM] application will not support due to their 3D nature.
Residual is an [http://www.opengl.org OpenGL] program, and requires a 3D card with working [http://www.opengl.org OpenGL] support.
 
The main [http://www.scummvm.org ScummVM] program can run [[LucasArts]] 2D [[SCUMM]] adventures (among others).
Residual is named such as it aims to do the same for the residual (remaining) games. It is also a word pun, as the engine used in these [http://www.lua.org LUA]-based adventure is called GrimE (as opposed to [[SCUMM]]). Grime is a type of residue.
 
=== What is the state of Residual? ===
Basic gameplay works, including cutscenes.
Some of the game is playable, but many features are either missing or unstable.
There are no menus, save/load features, proper lighting, etc. Crashes are likely.
