Im wondering what games beside doom and classic arcade games like pong, can run on any sort of device and what the limitations are? everyone says will it run doom? but what others games have the same support doom has?

Im not sure if this post goes here but ill start here.

    The architecture of Doom was specifically designed for portability. If you’d like to learn more, check out this video. For those that don’t know, tl;dr, the game’s structure is compartmentalized with specific connections (interfaces). The game logic runs separate of engine logic. If you write the specific engine hookups, the game logic should then run. Also math & clever level design implementation.
