Crispy Doom U is a Wii U adaptation of Crispy Doom, an enhanced-resolution, limit-removing Doom source port based on Chocolate Doom. The name "Crispy" refers to its internally crisp 640x400 resolution, with a slight reference to its origin.
This Wii U port was made possible by collaborative efforts of Crispy/Chocolate Doom authors, devkitPro, and the SDL2 porting team.
Features
- Up to date with Crispy Doom 5.12.0.
- High feature parity with the PC version, retaining the full Crispy menu (excluding elements irrelevant to Wii U).
- Smooth analog control support for both movement and turning.
- Simple launcher for selecting IWADs and optional PWADs.
- Music support using OPL3 (with minor stutter when loading new tracks).
- Wii U Pro Controller and Wii Classic Controller support.
- Controller rebinding (currently via editing
crispy-doom.cfg). - Optional toggle to fix the blockmap bug (page 4 of the Crispy menu).
