Well hey! Its been a few months since the last update to Residual, the game has been a bit in limbo.. BUT Im back with a renewed interest in building out the game to something bigger and better than ever! To start the next phase of Residual, this update comes with some very welcome improvements to the whole interface screen. It was a bit tiny, a bit off, a bit.. just.. not.. right. Especially the Switch version with its small screen had some issues with that whole inventory design. The new inventory now also comes with a Quick access context sensitive selection of items: depending on your missions, your current status, and your current surroundings, this Quick Access menu will show you the most likely items you need to grab from your inventory. Ive been playing with these changes for a few weeks now, and that QA menu is extremely useful ! Besides the QA menu, you now also get a better view of crafting requirements, mission-required items, and just generally a big improvement over the old inventory screen! On top of the new inventory screen, there are also a few good fixes and changes added to the game, as Im preparing to dive back into the whole Residual Chapter 2 update where we get to lift-off and actually navigate the stars to hop from planet to planet! I do have one question to ask from you guys: please drop a review for the game on Steam, especially if you are liking it! Reviews help push the game into more visible areas on Steam, and will allow me to keep working on it and pushing updates (Switch users: the update is coming your way, just takes a few extra weeks! mobile gamers: soon youll be able to take Residual with you on iOS or Android stay tuned!)
