Most homebrew is distributed l as ROM files for use in emulators (because that’s easiest), and you can also play these ROM files on the original hardware if you have a flashcart. Some homebrew developers actually manufacture and sell cartridges for their games (though usually this is in addition to a digital release, and not the primary means of distribution).
The article briefly mentions how this game is distributed:
> Freely available on Itch.io, a limited physical run of Deadeus was also sold through Spacebot Interactive, a one-man publisher founded by Chris Beach.
