A programmer under the nickname Mini Doge recently announced that he managed to successfully implement the classic 1993 game DOOM on the Dogecoin blockchain. To achieve this goal, the developer used a unique method known as "inscriptions".
If you're interested in diving into the past, you can access the game via the link. Once you enter the gameplay, you will be able to control your character using the keyboard and adjust your view using the arrow buttons.

In addition to this achievement, Mini Doge has also implemented a full-screen mode feature that allows players to navigate the game using the mouse. To access this feature, simply follow the link provided in the "Content" section. However, be aware that the initial download may take about a minute.
To make this project possible, the developer utilized the power of "inscription" technology, which uses tokens based on the DRC-20 standard. When deploying the client, all necessary data is extracted directly from the #Dogecoin blockchain.
The introduction of "inscriptions", referred to as Doginals in the project ecosystem, has had a significant impact on network activity. This is clearly visible in the graph presented, showing a significant spike in activity since their introduction in May 2023.
It's worth noting that a similar phenomenon occurred when "tokens" appeared on the #bitcoin network. This type of token has been criticized in the past, but many experts, including #Ethereum project co-founder Vitalik #Buterin, believe that this new standard has played a crucial role in revitalizing the bitcoin ecosystem.
