CSS is DOOMed!
I've build DOOM in CSS and every wall, floor, barrel, and imp is a div, positioned in 3D space using CSS transforms.
Try it out! But... not every browser can handle it. This is taking the browser to its limit. Chrome has some issues. Safari too. Bugs will be filed.

@html5test FF-ESR (on Debian) renders the gun+hand in the top-left instead of in the middle-bottom.
Also I couldn't figure out how to shoot.
Very cool. Congratulations.

@html5test CSS it's Turing complete? Another vector to run propietary softwaer? A good thing I use Mothra under 9front and #Dillo under GNU Guix.
BTW you can provide full levels from FreeDoom (better if you build a daily compilation, as it has really good but recent changes) with Deutex and GNU make: https://freedoom.github.io
Now you can provide the two full episodes.

@ZoidbergForPresident It should work when you go to Full screen mode (left square button in the top right), which uses Pointer Lock to capture the mouse if supported by the browser.

@BoydStephenSmithJr The most likely reason is the ESR probably does not yet support Anchored Positioning, which is used for positioning the gun relative to the status bar.

@html5test The gun is appearing in the upper left corner

@devnull this is probably because the browser you are using does not support Anchored Positioning.

@html5test Web "standards" they call it
It is supported only since Firefox 147 according to this. Which doesn't include Firefox ESR yet…

@devnull The whole idea of this project is to see what is possible with modern web standards and pushing the limits and not to create something that works everywhere

@html5test Surprisingly, it works in Firefox mobile. However, the "Doom" font color is inverted.
