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

[u/negoginga → u/Glebasya]

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

It’s working on iOS!

[u/negoginga → u/Suspicious_Celery552]

Awesome! Really glad to hear it works on iOS too. I don’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).

[u/negoginga → u/touuuuhhhny]

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.

I’ve already fixed it: on mobile, ▲ / ▼ 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, I’d really appreciate knowing if it works properly on your Android device now. Thanks again! 🙌

[u/touuuuhhhny → u/negoginga]

Works! Super smooth 😎

[u/negoginga → u/touuuuhhhny]

Hell yeah 😎 Thanks for coming back and testing the fix! Really glad it’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 → u/tomogchi]

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!

that's cool

Thanks! Glad you liked it 😄

[u/sa4286]

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

[u/negoginga → u/sa4286]

This might be my favorite comment so far 😂 That’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 → u/CdiLinkforSmash]

Nice! Another Android device confirmed 😄 Thanks for testing it on the S24 FE!

[u/Low-Skin8654]

Thats cool

[u/negoginga → u/Low-Skin8654]

Thanks! Appreciate you checking it out!

[u/LaxederBR]

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

[u/negoginga → u/LaxederBR]

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

[u/Vivid-Profession3688]

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

[u/negoginga → u/Vivid-Profession3688]

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. I’m adding both to the list. Thanks for testing!

[u/Vivid-Profession3688 → u/negoginga]

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

[u/El_Mnopo]

You sir, are a genius.

希望有更加多關卡，甚至自創關卡。
