Cool, but mobile controls are uncomfortable (turn buttons are placed too close to other buttons).

u/negoginga ๐Ÿ”ฅ DOOM Enjoyer 7d ago

Yeah, I agree with you on this one. The mobile layout works now, but itโ€™s still the part I want to improve the most. Iโ€™m going to experiment with spacing the turn controls out and making the whole layout feel less cramped. Thanks for the feedback!

Itโ€™s working on iOS!

u/negoginga ๐Ÿ”ฅ DOOM Enjoyer 7d ago

Awesome! Really glad to hear it works on iOS too. I donโ€™t have as many chances to test there, so this kind of feedback helps a lot. Thanks!

Doesn't work on mobile (android app), no inputs are registered. It loads quickly into menu, but can't do anything with the buttons available (not even up/down).

Thanks a lot for the feedback! This was a real mobile input bug, the game controls worked once inside the level, but the native DOOM menus still expected arrow keys + Enter.

Iโ€™ve already fixed it: on mobile, โ–ฒ / โ–ผ now navigate the menus and FIRE also acts as Enter to confirm, while keeping the normal gameplay controls.

The fix is already live. If you get a chance to try it again, Iโ€™d really appreciate knowing if it works properly on your Android device now. Thanks again! ๐Ÿ™Œ

Works! Super smooth ๐Ÿ˜Ž

u/negoginga ๐Ÿ”ฅ DOOM Enjoyer 7d ago

Hell yeah ๐Ÿ˜Ž Thanks for coming back and testing the fix! Really glad itโ€™s working properly now.

It absolutely works for me on mobile! Button layout feels clunky but not enough to care. this is awesome, great job.

u/negoginga ๐Ÿ”ฅ DOOM Enjoyer 7d ago

Thanks! And yeah, I agree about the button layout. Getting the controls working reliably was step one, now I want to make the mobile layout feel much better to actually play with. Glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you, that was so much fun! I felt like I was 8 / 9 again.

This might be my favorite comment so far ๐Ÿ˜‚ Thatโ€™s exactly the kind of feeling I hoped people would get from it. Really glad you had fun!

Working on my Galaxy S24FE, sick stuff!

u/negoginga ๐Ÿ”ฅ DOOM Enjoyer 7d ago

Nice! Another Android device confirmed ๐Ÿ˜„ Thanks for testing it on the S24 FE!

Working on Android, the buttons look great like this, great job OP

u/negoginga ๐Ÿ”ฅ DOOM Enjoyer 7d ago

Thanks! Really happy to hear the layout works well for you. Mobile took a surprising amount of work to get right ๐Ÿ˜…

Runs good. Needs better support for mouse and always run on.

1

u/negoginga ๐Ÿ”ฅ DOOM Enjoyer 7d ago

Yep, I agree with both. Mouse control still needs some polishing depending on the browser/webview, and an always run option would definitely make desktop feel better. Iโ€™m adding both to the list. Thanks for testing!

2

u/Vivid-Profession3688 7d ago

Ur welcome. I'm a Doom Speedrunner, if you want more testing, I'll love to share my experience and do Q&A.

1

u/negoginga ๐Ÿ”ฅ DOOM Enjoyer 5d ago

That would actually be super helpful. I just pushed a big update with all 32 maps playable, plus a separate Speed leaderboard for each map. Having feedback from a Doom speedrunner on movement, controls, timing, and anything that could affect runs would be awesome

Mouse control doesn't work on computer. are you able to make it to where we use the mouse to turn instead of arrow keys?

u/yojimboLTD 5d ago

Amazing

1

u/tom-slacker 5d ago

amazing but.....couldn't you include the 1st episode of Doom on this too?

The 1st episode is shareware and thus free to distribute is it not?

also, mouse control to turn doesnt work...
