Developer here :) Just saw this and love how I got the 100th or so "Does it run DOOM?". Even now officially an issue on GitHub. Does that mean I now have to deliver?

  Well, using something related/similar to turing-complete correspondence: ---- If it can fetch/display files from the internet, yes, it can run doom[5].

ESP32 port of doom[2]. lcd screen might provide for faster refresh / less blury images under magnifying glass.

How optimal is the PCB density? Do you think there is significant room for improvement to have a smaller PCB and larger screen and/or battery?
- krauseler 4mo ago
  The PCB can be way smaller, but finding a flexible screen is the issue, there is a 2.9 inch one almost twice as big but the battery would suffer :/
