Love the idea! Its like everyone always said: You can play doom on anything! (as long as you can set your mind to it!)
I'm getting an error about the IWAD not being found, I downloaded the working file, and copied it to the right folder like everyone else here. Playdate firmware 2.5.0
I can't open doors or move to other maps on the first stage. Pressing the A key doesn't open doors or interact with them. What's wrong?
ah - sorry for ‘stealing’ the name!
Guess it felts the most logical choice in our respective universe.
Ha, I was joking with my son about someone porting Doom to the Playdate, I guess it's already been done! Works for me on my Playdate, firmware 2.5.0

Crank controls camera, how can we use the crank to fire? 
Can't get it to work on firmware 2.6.2 I'm getting the IWAD message, I put the wad into the new folder in the data section. Yes it is the correct WAD. Any suggestions?
I thought it was cool when somebody got Doom to run on a washing machine, but this. 
I got it to load but It gave me a new error "W_GetNumForName: d_intro not found!"

I successfully downloaded, Poom, but ran into some difficulty when my Playdate said that I needed to update the game. Is there any new version I could possibly side load directly onto the playdate?
Playdoom works on the latest firmware
I can’t find the latest firmware 
You should be able to pull it from the server with Settings > System > System Update if you're not already up to date.
I'm having similar issues to those already described, a crash on launch which logs the following error:
2025/05/09 13:49:18
/Games/User/user.XXXXXX.me.spazzylemons.playdoom.pdx
Game mode indeterminate. No IWAD file was found. Try
specifying one with the '-iwad' command line parameter.
I've tried reinstalling the .pdx and also different .wad files but the error is always the same.
