One of the longest-running jokes in video games is getting the original DOOM to run on unconventional things. We’ve had it on printer displays, watches, cash registers, and microwaves, but the most recent port is perhaps the strangest yet.
Finding out you have Hellspawn on a pregnancy test would normally be a bit worrying, but in this case, it’s just the hellbeasts of DOOM. Foone on Twitter had initially got a video of the Id classic playing on the 128×32 pixel monochrome display of a pregnancy test, but thanks to some extra wizardry, they actually got the game running on a teensy display that ordinarily has the sole purpose of telling you if you should start investing in a crib or not.
Yesterday I had a lot of retweets and reddit posts and such for playing Doom on a pregnancy test.
But as I explained then, it wasn't really PLAYING on a pregnancy test, it was just a video being played back, not an interactive game.Well, now it is. It's Pregnancy Test Doom! pic.twitter.com/Nrjyq07EVv

It’s not easy to see much detail given the minuscule display and low pixel count, but it’s unmistakably DOOM…running on a pee stick.
It’s impressive, but we all know technology won’t peak until DOOM is running on a strand of hair or a fleck of dandruff.
