Every once in a while, there are gods who successfully run “Doom” on so-and-so. Recently, there is another, and it is still in the exaggerated Windows Notepad. I never thought that Notepad could be used to play games.

Foreign gods successfully run the “Doom” game in “Windows Notepad” (also 60FPS)
Recently, the YouTube channel Samperson shared his video of successfully running the Doom (1993) game in Notepad at 60FPS, and also specifically wrote that the video screen is normal speed without acceleration, and it looks quite smooth.
He didn’t modify the Notepad app, and it’s the kind of video that can be played directly interactively, not automatically. It is a pity that Samperson did not share the principle of this game and how it was made, but he packaged this work for interested people to download and try:

It is guessed that the speed of inputting in Notepad cannot keep up, so it is not suitable for playing for a long time. In the film, he also jokingly said, “I’m not good at playing Doom”:
John Romero (John Romero), one of the creators of “Doom”, also shared that he was impressed and incredible:

“Doom” has been launched for more than 20 years, and it is still supported by many developers and players. This shows how high this game is in everyone’s hearts. It seems that no other game can be found like it.
In my memory, it seems that only “Quake” has been used on Apple Watch Series 5. It runs at 60fps at a resolution of 640×480. If you want a higher resolution, you can run it at a lower FPS. To 1024×768 resolution:
