Thanks to a new Twitter bot called Tweet2Doom, users can play Doom on Twitter, in a reduced version. The original installment of the first-person shooter franchise was released in 1993 for the MS-DOS PC operating system, but is now available to play on a wide range of platforms and consoles. DOOM has inspired several projects in the past that fall into a similar category to this Twitter hack, especially when it comes to its active modding community.
The Twee2Doom project is not a mod, nor does it change anything about the gameplay, mechanics, or content of DOOM. Rather, Tweet2Doom is a Twitter bot that allows gamers to submit a list of actions in the game, and the account will publish a video with the requested movements. A user submitted a series of in-game actions to the account, which resulted in a Tweet2Doom response video showing exactly how their request played out.

Play Doom on Twitter thanks to the Tweet2Doom project
Since “play” requests can seem quite complicated, Tweet2Doom includes instructions on how to send these pseudo-turn-based DOOM commands, based on your schedule; including keyboard inputs for the game such as “new box”, “escape”, “left arrow” or other movements related to arrows, “shift + up arrow”, “ctrl”, and so on. The tweet also includes rules for those who want to use this bot, like that your tweet must be a reply to @ tweet2doom’s tweet », and that it must contain a game command: / play [entrada].

Users may not play the game directly through the social network website, but enter the game instructions and see their subsequent results it is not far from playing the game itself. Of course, this process renders the trial and error aspect of the game completely inaccessible, and players have reportedly only cleared the first couple of levels for now. As a result, progressing through the game using this bot seems like a comparatively more difficult undertaking than simply playing DOOM.
