That Doom has been ported to pretty much everything is a known fact,
but if you want to keep up with the ridiculousness, there's a reddit
forum https://www.reddit.com/r/itrunsdoom/ for that
It amuses me that now that, given that Doom runs on so many different >hardware platforms, the new drive seems to be virtualizing the game
onto different software platforms... like Outlook or Typescript.
Not that I'm complaining. We need more Doom everywhere... if only to
piss off the ghost of US Senator Lieberman. ;-)

Actually, "Night Trap" would probably offend him more. That was -for
reasons nobody understood- is the hill he went to war over. Well, that
and "Mortal Kombat". "Doom" was almost a secondary concern (after all,
nobody played PC games; only console tiles mattered in 1995 ;-).
TIL that Jack Thompson is still alive. But he remains disbarred, so we
still got that.
(What, me hold a grudge? ;-)

Make a request on that Reddit channel and see what happens.
I mean, it might end up being a 4-frame slideshow of an alphanumeric >representation of a gun shooting an equally symbolic represenation of
an imp, and that only possible with a lot of soldering and other
hackery, but I've confidence that somebody will work SOMETHING out.
The axiom is: if it computes, it runs Doom. And if it doesn't run
Doom, it isn't really a computer. ;-)

I looked up "Night Trap" -- rated T for Teen. Looks fairly innocuous.
I don't think Liebermann was playing with a full deck.

It's not the full game (QR codes are limited to 3K) but it captures
the heart of what Doom is.
Now you can stick the QR code on posters, walls, very small dogs...
soon Doom will be everywhere! ;-)

I don't have any issue listening to acapella, but WATCHING that was
hard. ;-)
Still great though.
They needed at least one other person to do the sound effects, though.
It's not the same without the gunfire, demon moans and button clunks.

They just need to do the whole game. ;)
I actually expected that to happen once they started doing the 'map
screen' music. "Oh, they're not stopping at the end of E1M1. I guess I
get to hear the whole game acapella. That's neat."
But then I saw the video had only 8 seconds left and realized that was
going to be the end. I was so disappointed that I demanded my money
back ;-P

OK, I am confused. I saved QR code image and uploaded into https://scanqr.org/#scan web page, but I got:

Am I missing something?
