The GIF’s controls buttons tell the host machine to save a screenshot of the player character performing the corresponding action. The original Doom is one of the cornerstones of the FPS genre. Basically, the file hosted on AO3 is a “continuously-evolving GIF” that’s technically streaming “Doom” from a separate host machine. Sillers explained how he managed to run “Doom” as a GIF in a static webpage during BangBangCon, and his GitHub page lists the very basic details of how the process works behind the scenes. The game is controlled by pressing the control keys listed on the webpage, but the actual player control for the “game” is shared between everyone who is currently on the page.
The GIF version of “ Doom” can be viewed at the AO3 repository, and the way it works is as bizarre as it seems. Sillers said that this project was made as part of his participation in the virtual !!Con (otherwise known as “BangBangCon”).
#Doom eternal gif software
Software engineer Andrew Sillers announced that he successfully made an interactive GIF of “Doom,” Game Rant reported. As amazing as these versions are, one man has beaten all of them in terms of ingenuity by porting “Doom” into an interactive. People have ported the game onto smart fridges, calculators and even pregnancy tests. It’s been proven time and again that the classic version of Id Software’s “Doom” can run on almost anything.
