A blast from the past, although not too well-known. Originally from Maelstrom Software and Future Visionary, The Fortress of Dr. Radiaki - Fancy Edition is a fresh upgraded re-release of the 1994 game from ZOOM Platform Media that's out now on ZOOM Platform and Steam.

The ZOOM Platform team emailed in to note "We made sure to give extra care for Linux and Deck" for this one.
