Residual - is a platformer with elements of survival simulation. The game boasts elaborate pixel graphics and procedural world generation. It is done in a sci-fi setting. In the story the hero crashes on a planet in a forgotten part of the galaxy. Its mission is to explore alien technology and find a way to fix the starship.
Achievement is hampered by hostile flora and fauna, as well as mysterious sludge. In Residual, the type of locations depend on the position of the planet in space. If it is close to the sun, traveling across its surface will be accompanied by intense heat, and plants will become less common. If the celestial body is far away from the star, the nights will be much longer. This mechanic affects the gameplay. For example: a short day will add to the problems, as the protagonist's suit is charged by solar energy.
Another difference of the project is the absence of the usual battles. There is no violence in this product. The emphasis in gameplay is on exploring the terrain, solving riddles, and surviving. In the game you can collect food and minerals, build fires, create objects, find secrets and data about what happened to the ancient civilization. The character editor allows you to choose the gender of your character. He is not traveling alone. He is accompanied by a snarky PDB drone. The difficulty can be adjusted flexibly.
