The Commodore 64? Yeah, it… runs(? More of a walk, really) Doom.
At some point in the deep dark depths of the past (read: 1996), someone looked at their trust old C64 and said “You know what, this is a pretty good old computer. But you know what would make it even gooder? If I took a 20 MHz CPU with 16mb of memory and jammed it right up in there to see what happens!” Turns out it kinda sorta worked, and so the SuperCPU was born!
Many years later, someone in Sweden came across this forbidden, forgotten, dark science, and given the recurring theme of this blog, you can probably guess what happened next.
This is a (more or less) direct build of the original ID software source code release with a hacked together tiny clib for the string/mem/math/etc functions it required.
While this Doom port isn’t meant to be taken seriously, it has proven quite useful for testing and improving the MIPS recompiler as Doom is a rather complex and large application.
Many thanks to durrsly for submitting this!
