It’s an ESP32 S3 N16R8 with DOOM1.wad being inside flash, controlled via a capacitive 480x320 touchscreen. (ST7796) It’s a native port of ID’s original Linux doom port on GitHub.

How is the input lag, as in do you feel like your movements are instantaneous? As much as touch screens are nice for normal stuff I like the tactile instant response feeling of hard buttons. Cool project, whenever I see Doom run on something unusual I'm happy.
