The package in nixpkgs was basically unmaintained since 2018. It's maintainer in nixpkgs is inactive since 2022. It dependended on the already dropped SDL_gpu package, which it pinned internally. This now also started failing to build. While upstream has a newer version of `riko4` available, it does not remove the SDL_gpu dependency or fix its issues.
