I don't know how I missed this fact, but remaster of the 1993 strategy game "Burntime" was quite recently (17th December) released.

Fortunately, aside from Steam version, there is also version available for direct download from github:
https://github.com/jakobharder/burntime

I also found short note from dev related to why game was released as freeware:

It's free on steam? Maybe I should get it. Never played the original.
Very thankful for the direct download OP, as I wouldn't have bothered with the vapor store.
Worth noting a load of AI crapware was used to make it into a "remaster". Take what you want from that but be informed.

Ah, rats. Thanks for the heads-up.
Oddly enough, I never played this much. Was really wonky controls. Computer regenerated graphics or not. Thanks for posting.

Anyone wanna save people time; Is it DOSBox or some other method of getting it running? Windows or...?
The game runs from a windows exe.

AI was only used on the graphics upscaling and this can be switched back to the original graphics in the options same as the audio.

ABOUT THIS GAME
Survive and conquer the post-apocalyptic world of Burntime.

Features
Original Gameplay: Play through the original game from 1993 with some enhancements.

Survival: Find food, parts to build traps and people to help you.

Conquer: Establish camps around all major cities to win the game.

Remastered Visuals: Enjoy enhanced graphics and wide screen support while still being true to its 90s pixel art.

Remaster Toggles: Prefer the original graphics, or the AMIGA sound track? Change in the options.

About the Development
This remaster was done by a super fan of the original game.
It was only possible thanks to the ok by the creators, and the many issue feedback by fellow fans.

It is fully reprogrammed from scratch using the original graphics and sounds.

Issue reports and smaller improvement ideas are appreciated on GitHub.

AI GENERATED CONTENT DISCLOSURE
The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

Upscaling was done in a mixed process of AI upscaling with Upscayl and manual work with Affinity Designer/Photo, GIMP and Aseprite.
Some backgrounds were extended on the sides for widescreen using AI tools like krea.ai, and then manually reworked with Affinity Designer/Photo, GIMP and Aseprite.
