I looked this up, I can't find any evidence that this is a remake of anything, also you linked two different games so who knows which game you think it's a remake of.

oh, I guess those two games are the same game, just a different name, either way though this is certainly not a remake, directly from the game's steam page

Ultionus is a love-letter to the home computer arcade games of the late 80s and early 90s, particularly Halloween Harry, Astro Marine Corps, Duke Nukem 2 and especially Phantis/Game Over II.

Yeah I found it while looking for Famicom stuff on Manda. Turns out it's a text adventure game, one of Natsume's debut titles, about the guy on the left going back in time and starting an adventure with Marco Polo. It sounds pretty fucking surreal, with a lot of strange imagery and jump scares, and I'd probably snap it up if I could read a lick of Japanese.
