It was originally available on floppy disk but was later made available on CD-Rom in Japan by Interlink Planning Japan. The original game was made with Director 3.0. There was a port for MS-DOS using the MADE engine, but the MS-DOS version has lower resolution graphics and is overall a more compromised experience. A 1997 sequel, Rodney's Funscreen 2: Extreme, was released in Japan for Windows and Macintosh using Director 5. It had somewhat changed graphics but the overall experience is the same as the original 1992 Director version.
