    There is no public #DOOM port for #MMIX

    Albeit having a fully-fledged simulator laying around called "virtual motherboard" (vmb.sourceforge.net/), with a framebuffer, I/O and all.

    This could be my next project.

    Okay, I have to ask first and google then:

    Has anyone *ever* ported #DOOM to Donald #Knuth​s #MMIX machine?

    I think he deserves to see that.

    Learning the SME, Neon and #ARM64 assembly language altogether on my Apple M4 right now, it is nice to have a real 64 bit RISC to work with. Although the 15,000 page ARM-a profile reference manual is scary, in theory I should only need half of it, and the a64 instruction set is in many ways similar to Knuth's #MMIX, albeit the later lacking a proper instruction set working on extended length vector registers.
