Gamer creates earrings that run Doom

Can players run Doom on their earrings? The answer is yes, according to Alina Matson. Matson is a gamer, streamer, and self-taught developer.

On Nov. 21, Matson posted a video demonstrating that players can run Doom on their earrings. The video was a response to another post predicting that the feat would be possible in six months. Matson accepted the challenge and made the game playable on earrings just a day later.

The ability to play Doom on earrings referenced the "It Runs Doom" meme. Doom is a first-person shooter (FPS) game from 1993 that has since been ported to various electronics. The most hilarious part is that these electronics aren't typically used for gaming.

According to KnowYourMeme, the origin of this meme is a video by YouTuber KevlarGorilla. In 2006, KevlarGorilla posted a video of himself playing Doom on a Nintendo DS.

A few other examples of Doom running on unconventional devices include the following:

Previously, Matson showcased Tetris on earrings as well. She credited the Thumby products from TinyCircuits. TinyCircuits is a company that designs and manufactures small and open-source electronics.

The company launched its Kickstarter back in September 2012 and raised over 1,000% of its goal. It then produced miniature electronics such as handheld game consoles, circuit boards, and more.

Here's a time of TinyCircuits' various milestones and projects over the years:
