## Why It Matters
Meltdown is a concise example of a digitally distributed game from 2014 that was made available across the three major desktop operating systems (Windows, macOS, Linux) via Steam. Its multi-platform release model illustrates how independent or smaller titles used digital storefronts to reach diverse audiences without physical distribution. The presence of Meltdown in numerous game databases and services — including Mobygames, HowLongToBeat, RAWG, VGTimes, Lutris, and others — shows that it received cross-platform cataloging and archival, which aids discoverability and compatibility tracking (for example, in Linux gaming resources like Lutris and tuxdb). For players and archivists, Meltdown’s broad set of identifiers and listings makes it easier to verify availability, platform support, and historical metadata. The title also demonstrates the role of digital distribution in keeping releases accessible and trackable across multiple storefronts and databases.
