At long last, Doom can be played in Stardew Valley

For as long as there’s been Doom, there’s been a way to modify and tinker with id Software’s iconic FPS. Indeed, the original has been ported in so many interesting and bizarre ways, including on a smart toothbrush. Did you even know there were sma✱rt toothbrushes?

Anyway, the time has come to unleash it unto Stardew Valley. You can see it in action on the Reddit thread below, but it does exactly what it says on the tin by adding an arcade cabinet into the game that will allow you to play the original Doom.

Simply referred to as “DoomValley,” you can install it yourself by downloading the file from . User wojciech-graj provides installation instructions for both Windows and Linux. However, do note that it doesn’t work with sound. But you all know what Doom sounds like at this point.

I should have said StarDoom Valley…it was right there!

Based on the above footage, it looks as though you just have to purchase the cabinet from Gus in the Stardrop Saloon. It’ll only set you back 10,000 gold, but if you play it the way my girlfriend does, you’re all basically millionaires at this point, I’d wager.

Honestly, given that Stardew Valley already has an arcade machine that plays its own minigame, I’m surprised it’s taken this long to add Doom into it. Unless there are multiple instances of this happening in the past, I’m just not with the times anymore.

Be that as it may, it still astounds me that Doom keeps getting all this love some 30 years after it was released. Given that we’ve seen it running on a John Deere tractor, a pregnancy test, and even E. coli cells (sort of), porting it to Stardew almost seems passé at this point.
