A YouTuber was seen playing "Doom" on a Windows Notepad. This classic shooting game from 1993 is not playable on this text editor, but this developer shows that he's capable of running this FPS title with a twist.

Did you know that "Doom" is now playable on Notepad? This YouTuber proves that it's working.

According to Mashable, a Youtuber named Sam Chiet has recently shared his video playing "Doom" on the popular text editor. The game appears to be smoothly running in white and black ASCII art.

Some people are wondering if he used speed hacks to run it in full 60 fps mode. However, Chiet admitted that he did not use any speed tricks to run the game at a comfortably smooth pace.

Additionally, the developer said that he did not modify the game or tamper with it with a tool. He said that it's "fully playable interactive live" on Twitter.

For "Doom" fans, porting it to Notepad and calling it the "Notepad Doom" is one way to commemorate the game. Chiet said that there's no hidden trick here and it's pure coding only.

In the next few days, the YouTuber announced that he will release the official code for the games. It might take some time for now since he will remove the bugs and add another set of improvements to make it more pleasing to all players.

Another Versions of Ported 'Doom'

This is not the first time that Doom is ported to an unusual app. According to Tech Spot, another person managed to play "Doom" in Microsoft Excel.

Apparently, it's not as smooth as the notepad version. Although it's slightly playable, you might be bothered by its graphics and slower frame rates.

Here's a video showing how Doon runs on Excel:

Meanwhile, Tech Times reported back in June that "Doom" was ported to Lego Brick. James Brown, the hacksmith behind this project said that he struggled with the graphics of the game because it's extremely small to see.

It is so small to the point that it can only display 72x40 1bpp resolution. Indeed, it's a very challenging "Doom Project" for Brown, but it's one of the most unique devices where he played the classic game.

In April, a YouTuber showed how he plays "Doom" with a ray-tracing feature. This is a bizarre instance for the game since this technique is only designed for PC games that demand high graphics levels.

At first, players said that it was only an April Fool joke, but the YouTuber told them that it was not. The viral clip showed a very high-definition version of "Doom." Its colors are even more pronounced and you can easily compare it to a "Minecraft" version.
