“I play Doom with my keyboard.”
“… okay?”
Hackaday is the epitome of “because we can”.
If a piece of hardware can’t run doom is it even hardware?
Crazy how people are still finding new things to cram doom into. I remember when that was a popular thing to do twenty years ago haha
But I’ll admit, stuffing it into a keycap is pretty damn impressive, albeit useless haha
It’s the “hello world” for hardware.
Screw the Turing test! The superior test is “Can it run DOOM”.
Yeah it literally runs on pregnancy tests
Bonus points if that’s a touch screen
I was imagine to put Doom logo on my keyboard. But that is the whole game lol i take it.
What exactly is the obsession of putting DOOM of all games into any hardware over other games?
It’s a fine enough game, but definitely not the game of choice I would choose if I were to choose an old game to be put in random hardware.

This might answer your question
Really clear a cool. It makes sense it goes everywhere
It’s easy to port, has low system requirements, and it’s funny to see running on a toaster
“you can even plug in a keyboard”…
To play Doom…
That’s running in a key on your keyboard…
Not sure why he didn’t take the extra step of tying in the power and keys from the USB keyboard the keycap is living on. I feel like that shouldn’t be too hard
Reminds me of the Optimus Maximus keyboard.
While impractical, it’s still cool! 😎
Next: running doom in a CPU cooler’s lcd
