Residual plunges players into a desperate fight for survival on a procedurally generated alien world. Developed by Orangepixel, this title blends action-packed platforming with deep survival mechanics.
You'll crash-land your ship and must immediately begin scavenging for resources, crafting essential tools, and establishing a base camp to withstand the planet's harsh conditions.
The core gameplay loop revolves around exploration and resource management. Players will venture out from their shipwreck, facing unpredictable environmental hazards like cosmic storms and hostile flora.
Hunger is a constant threat, necessitating the hunting of alien creatures and the careful cultivation of food sources. Crafting is key to progress, with players able to create advanced sci-fi equipment, including teleporters for faster traversal and mining devices to extract valuable materials.
Unearthing ancient alien technology is crucial for repairing your ship and ultimately escaping the planet. However, the journey is fraught with peril.
A mysterious ooze threatens to consume everything, and the local wildlife is far from friendly. Fortunately, you're not entirely alone.
A snarky floating companion, the Personal Disaster Bot (PDB), offers assistance and commentary throughout your ordeal.
Residual offers a compelling single-player experience, enhanced by full controller support and Steam Cloud saves. The game's pixel art style, combined with its challenging roguelite elements, provides a unique and engaging adventure for those who enjoy a demanding survival challenge.
