Doom can be launched on almost everything

Watch? Calculators? ATMs? Cars?!

DOOM is over 23 years old, but it is still very popular. Those who are tired of just playing the legendary shooter on the computer will port him on other devices - sometimes rather crazy. "Medusa" tells what DOOM, Doom 2 and their clones can be launched on.

Automobile

On February 19, the author of the Vexal channel on YouTube showed how it launches a doom on the Porsche 911 computer: for this, it is supposed to be inserted into a USB-port with a special file, and a disk with the original doom in the CD-drive. Vexal noticed that the game is controlled using the steering wheel, pedals and lever gearbox, after which he began to ride in the parking lot and press on the horn - to shoot at enemies.

Fortunately, this is a fake video, but you can still play Doom in the car. In 2015, the user Davidxnewton said that his Honda Fit has an HDMI port. He connected the Raspberry Pi mini-computer to the car screen and launched the game on it. Not quite honest, but safe!

Calculator

Of course, on an ordinary calculator in Doom is unlikely to play. But on the scientific - quite!

As you can see, the image is not very good. This can be fixed by porting the graphics in the game under the calculator. The demonstration of the game in Doom on the video begins at 7:45.

Watch

On smart watches you can run programs - which means that they are able to cope with Doom. Moreover, Android Wear:

And Apple Watch:

Printer

Once there are printers with a color screen, why not play them?

True, there is nowhere to display the sound in this printer. But you can parallel to launch a DOOM soundtrack on the second printer.

ATM

Technically, nothing complicated - inside the ATM there is a regular computer. But this way it becomes possible to play buttons for entering the PIN code.

Oscilloscope

The craftsmen played in doom on the oscilloscope. True, they chewed: inside the oscilloscope there is a regular computer with Windows 95, so it was enough to install the game and start it.

But theoretically, Doom can also be ported to the “real” oscilloscope - at least with Quake, this turned out to be crank.

Tachbar

At the end of 2016, Apple released the new MacBook Pro with Touchbar - a narrow sensory screen in the upper row of the keyboard. Naturally, it was immediately launched on it!

On the keyboard button

In 2008, “Artemy Lebedev Studio” released the Optimus Maximus keyboard, in each key of which a small color screen is built in. The creators suggested that users will be able to configure the keyboard for work.

But on Optimus, of course, they launched a doom. True, a difficult way: the game actually went on the computer, and the special program constantly made screenshots of the screen and put them with a picture on the key.

Piano

Reading electronic books

Chainsaw

Of course, you can’t play on a simple chainsaw in Doom, but if you integrate Raspberry Pi in it and the screen - you can!

Doom

In GZDOOM, the DOOM fan port, there is a slot machine. And in it - doom. So you can play Doom, playing doom.
