    Easily portable doom

  • Doom isn't super difficult to port from what I know (never tried it myself, though), and there exist projects that make it even easier, see stuff like: https://github.com/ozkl/doomgeneric

  • DOOM

    DOOM Open Source Release

  • DOOM was made fully open-source a while back meaning unlike most commercially released games we have full access to the source code. People have also made ports/maintained the source code so it's more or less up to date.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
