That seems a bit pedantic and a kinda negative, the whole thing read to me like a parody on the whole 'it's not a real machine unless someone's made doom run on it meme' and a homage to doom style games.

It didn't seem to me like it was taking a jab at modern games or anything too serious. Just someone having a bit of fun, bragging a bit and showing off their work.

Nothing to get so worked up about. It's a neat project, no need to let semantics get you worked up. It all just seems like it was made for fun and it's kind of impressive for what it is.

Not everything needs to be stern and serious.

Point taken! (although it seems the author is very serious in their anti-capitalistic stance)
No worries on their politics though. What I see is an pretty cool project with some potential.

Ports to oddball or custom devices are lean projects. This is fun too. I hope some happen and maybe some other games get made.
