Screw the wedding photos, I'm playing Doom on a DSLR camera like the good lord intended

At a recent photography event, a curious sight emerged: a DSLR camera being used to play Doom, the legendary first-person shooter game. The camera, a Canon EOS 550D, was modified with open source Magic Lantern firmware, enabling it to run the game at a smooth frame rate. The image processing hardware and menu controls were repurposed to create a playable configuration, complete with traditional controls like up, down, left, and right, as well as select and fire buttons.

Lauris-nl, the Github user who developed the module, advises against using this port on other cameras or Canon models running firmware versions other than 1.0.9. While commercial Doom files are not included on the Github page, popular editions like Doom, Doom II, and Final Doom: TNT Evilution are reportedly compatible. Although Heretic, Hexen, Strife, and Doom64 are not supported, the nostalgic experience of playing Doom on a DSLR camera could be an intriguing conversation starter at dull social gatherings, like weddings.
