list of their games on Steam

They are focused mostly on releasing games which are combined ports and remakes of games from the early 1980s PC games that you would get the code and design of in magazines, and the games which aren't those are created in the style of those. You'd be hard pressed to find anything like them on any storefront, and this deserves to be talked about WAY MORE!

On top of that, various creators either from that era or well-regarded ones often are tapped as contributors to the projects, ranging from Yuzo Koshiro (the Streets of Rage composer!) and Junko Ozawa (composer for games like Tower of Druaga), to the pixel artist Hiroshi Ono (artist who worked on Galaxian ,Cutie Q ,Pacman ,Tank Battalian ,Rally X ,New Rally X ,Galaga ,Bosconian ,Warp & Warp ,Dig Dug ,Pole Position ,Super Pacman ,Xevious ,Mappy ,Pac&Pal ,Pole Position II , Libble Rabble ,Phozon ,Gaplus ,Pacland ,Dragon Buster ,Metro Cross ,Toypop ,Dig Dug II ,Baraduke ,Skykid....)

When was the last time you read a game description that says it includes:

HARD CORE

If they can just add “in the style of the PC-98” to their repertoire (Steam would surely welcome late Showa-era anime cinemas and edgy PC-98 visuals) they will be the true kings. And if incidentally they manage to port Rusty to Steam I will buy 30 copies and give one to literally anyone on the Cafe who asks for one.
