Developer nyan_satan shows off a port of the classic video game Doom running on Apple's Lightning to HDMI adapter cable.

This is only possible because the adapter features a dedicated system-on-chip with a processor inside.

It also runs a basic version of iOS, stripped down to only the most basic of features, allowing the dongle to process video signals but not much else.

This isn't the first time an enthusiast has managed to get the game running on an unusual device.
