- medi8r 8mo agoSo it could run Doom?
- repelsteeltje 8mo agoYes: https://github.com/robertcprice/nCPU?tab=readme-ov-file#doom-raycaster-demo https://github.com/robertcprice/nCPU?tab=readme-ov-file#doom...
- binsquare 8mo agoCan we run doom inside of doom yet?

- throawayonthe 8mo agoYes: https://github.com/kgsws/doom-in-doom https://github.com/kgsws/doom-in-doom
- PowerElectronix 8mo agoWhat a time to be alive
- medi8r 8mo agoOh I forgot to Doom scroll.
- anthk 8mo agoDoom it's easy. Better the ZMachine with an interpreter based on DFrotz, or another port. Then a game can even run under a Game Boy. For a similar case, check Eforth+Subleq. If this guy can emulate subleq CPU under a GPU (something like 5 lines under C for the implementation, the rest it's C headers and the file opening function), it can run Eforth and maybe Sokoban.
- zackmorris 8mo agoI wish the project said how many CPUs could be run simultaneously on one GPU. It might be worth having a CPU that's 100 times slower (25 MHz) if 1000 of them could be run simultaneously to potentially reach a 10 times speedup for embarrassingly parallel computation. But starting from a hole that's 625000x slower seems unlikely to lead to practical applications. Still a cool project though!
