      IDK about Doom but someone is likely already working on a VLC port for it.

      Unfortunately it’s about 15 bits short.

            Somebody wrote an FPGA that plays level 1. No processor, just a great big mess of programmed wires.

                I mean if the FPGA is done an asic would be doable, but someone would need to REALLY want to do it.
