Doom Runs at 60 FPS in Notepad

[gregmcc]

Game developer Sam Chiet(opens in new tab) has found another use for Microsoft Notepad. The ingenious creator has gotten Doom (1993) to run at 60 FPS through the boring text editor in Windows.

Chiet highlighted that he didn't have to modify the Notepad application. Dubbed "NotepadDOOM," the project is fully playable. Although Chiet didn't explain how the mod works, has committed to launching NotepadDOOM for other Doom fans to try out. Chiet said in a subsequent tweet(opens in new tab) that "it'll take some work to polish NotepadDOOM into something releasable, but it'll almost certainly happen over the next couple days."
