DOOM Launched on a Flower Pot
Programmers continue to demonstrate their skills in the unofficial challenge "Port DOOM to an unusual gadget." This time, the unusual device was a smart flower pot.



A flower pot with a display that shows the level of soil moisture was chosen as a gaming platform. The system is based on an ESP 32 chip with a memory capacity of only 8 MB, but this was enough to create a stripped-down version of DOOM. However, it is impossible to play in this format, since the pot only has two touch keys, and there is nowhere to connect an external gamepad or mouse.

Earlier, the same enthusiast (his name is Aaron Christophel) ported the shooter to a toothbrush. According to Aaron himself, it was easier to port DOOM to a flower pot, since the latter has plenty of resources.
