A dedicated DOOM enthusiast, NyanSatan, has achieved the remarkable feat of running the classic DOOM game on Apple's Lightning/HDMI adapter. This adapter, as NyanSatan explains, utilizes iOS-based firmware and a processor clocked at up to 168 MHz. The process involved accessing the adapter's firmware and then executing the game, leveraging a MacBook for firmware transfer due to the adapter's lack of internal memory.
Meanwhile, news on an upcoming DOOM iteration reveals a focus on accessibility. DOOM: The Dark Ages will allow players to significantly adjust game difficulty. This includes modifying enemy aggression, damage output, projectile speed, and even the overall game pace, parry timing, and damage received by enemies. Executive producer Marty Stratton emphasized the studio's commitment to broad accessibility. He also confirmed that prior DOOM experience isn't necessary to understand the narrative of DOOM: The Dark Ages or its connection to DOOM: Eternal.
