"Doom runs on anything." is being taken to a whole 'nother level...

... The day I can get Doom running in my brain directly is the day I won't ever get bored again.

Amazing! And it's actually Doom, not a Wolf 3D clone with a Doom coat on top of it, like that port of Doom running on a scientific calculator. It kinda looks like it's being displayed on tv static.

[Mr Masker]

As someone who always found notepad quite simplistic, this is very impressive. I don't even know how you'd set this kinda thing up

[maxmanium]

No, seriously, how does this work?

[PKr]

Ok, Doom in Doom is one thing, but WTF?

 

@kgsws sorry man, you're not that cool anymore...

Spoiler

Just kidding... Frigging wizards.

That's called imagination. Or dreams I guess.

My guess is it's attaching itself to Notepad as a debugger and sneakily replacing its text buffer each frame.

Doom Player "Doom can run on anything and everything"

 

Normal person "Yeah? but can you run doom on a note pad lol"

 

*shows video*

 

Normal person "Uh.........."

 

Moral of the joke is if you can think it, it can run doom on it. Now i'm just waiting for someone to run doom on a adult toy lol.......please for the love of god don't tell me that is real.

[Herr Dethnout]

DOOTePad++ when?

[Biodegradable]

It's an absolute eyesore, but no less impressive on both a technical and humourous level. This old meme will never die! :^D

[joepallai]

mind blown

 

[Master O]

Nominate it for a Cacoward?

[DannyMan]

Can we try other Doom engine games on it?

[taufan99]

I'm in utter lack of words of how noteworthy this is. Only complaint I have is the graphics, but I feel like that's a given.

Rule 34 (a): if you can think it, it can run H Doom lol

[Ludi]

I'm so happy this exists. I don't know why it does, but I'm glad it does regardless.

[Sneezy McGlassFace]

That seems like the Doom on pregnancy test thing. It's just using it as a screen output. Here it's converting the video data into text, and dumping that into notepad. So you could scroll up to see all the frames of what you've done. I'm no code wizard but that's my guess.

Or a new one; rule 666: eventually everything will run doom, even toasters.
