When you hear the word Doom, it’s okay to think about Eternal doom, or Doom 2016. Both were a resounding success in the video game sector thanks to their great gameplay and impressive graphics. Old school shooter.
Ironically, Doom was the favorite game of developers who had the spare time to run on the craziest, most unconventional computers. And if on a tractor, what if in a pregnancy test, what if in a CASIO calculator… Any hardware is good enough to play a few games.
Well, we have one more to the list: An engineer has ported Doom to an unexpected place: Microsoft Notebook. YouTuber Samperson was able to run Doom in Notepad using ASCII graphics as the rendering engine at 60fps.
According to him, the video was not accelerated, he did not make any edits in Notepad, and Doom is quite playable. He even plans to make Doom Notepad available to the public in the next few days.
Notepad instead of Xbox, what could go wrong?
Chiet is a game developer and crazy experimenter who enjoys messing around with old systems and finding ways to breathe new life into them. Back in September, he detailed his work to revive the defunct Xbox Kinect technology.
This is the nineteenth time this year that we discover that Doom can be played on a system that is far from configured to function this way.. With maximum imagination a few months ago, someone was able to run Doom in Minecraft.
Video games are a place of entertainment and happiness for millions of people, but also a challenge for many other developers who love to push systems to their limits. This notepad works rock we didn’t expect it.
