Chocolate Doom ported to the Nintendo Switch.

Chocolate Doom aims to accurately reproduce the original DOS version of Doom and other games based on the Doom engine in a form that can be run on modern computers.

Originally, Chocolate Doom was only a Doom source port. The project now includes ports of Heretic and Hexen, and Strife.

Chocolate Doom's aims are:

• To always be 100% Free and Open Source software.
• Portability to as many different operating systems as possible.
• Accurate reproduction of the original DOS versions of the games, including bugs.
• Compatibility with the DOS demo, configuration and savegame files.
• To provide an accurate retro "feel" (display and input should behave the same).

More information about the philosophy and design behind Chocolate Doom can be found in the PHILOSOPHY file distributed with the source code.
