About the project
Doom ported2browser links to Cloudflare's Chocolate Doom WebAssembly project. It provides build scripts, a local launch workflow and WebSocket multiplayer integration. This is an engine project: game assets remain separate from source code.
Technology: WebAssembly / Emscripten
Getting started
- 01
Open the repository and follow its demo or local-build instructions.
- 02
For a local build, install the documented Emscripten and SDL dependencies and run the build script.
- 03
Place doom1.wad in src and serve the built files over HTTP.
Before you play
Local builds start in single-player mode. The documented multiplayer deployment uses the separate doom-workers project.
Questions & requirements
Do I need game files?
The documented build uses shareware doom1.wad. Commercial episodes need appropriate game data.
Has this build been tested here?
The linked author's documentation was reviewed on 2026-11-04. A complete gameplay session, save recovery and device compatibility have not been independently tested. Supported controls below are documentation claims.
Where do I get help?
Read the project documentation for build-specific limitations and issue reporting.
