After being banned from Google Play to make way for the official release of Doom on Android, Beloko’s emulator for players who want to port over their own copies of Doom has now arrived in the Amazon Appstore. What Beloko does is “specialize in creating high-quality usable ports with exceptional Touch Screen and Gamepad support”, according to the dev.
Emulating another operating system on a platform not native to said operating system isn’t a new thing. There are plenty of emulators out there that can emulate just about anything you want, even on a platform like Samsung Gear Live. So while putting Window95 onto your Gear Live might seem a bit odd of an idea at first, until the cool factor sets in. Of course playing DOOM on it definitely adds to that.
Recently the old-school FPS game DOOM hit its 20th anniversary and to celebrate an mobile version of the original DOOM game has been released onto Google Play. Of course we’ve had DOOM ports available on there for awhile but this happens to be the full original experience ported over for mobile gaming.
Let’s be honest, Doom isn’t just a legend amongst players nowadays, It’s more of a lifestyle. It defined the term FPS back in the 90’s, and keeps being played to this very day. Now, if you used to think “oh, it just looks so damn pixelated and I’d rather get one of those awesome-looking games on my tablet”, you better start getting those bucks out of your pocket, since this OpenGLES port of Doom, Doom II, Ultimate Doom (and virtually any IWAD out there) will surely get you back to some martians-ass-kicking.
While most ports of Doom and similar games have been yanked off the Android Market, there are two open source ones you can still play. However if you don’t want to bother mucking around getting them to run on your Android phone, or you’re just lazy, you can enjoy all the demon blasting you want with this great new live wallpaper.
