Someone made a CAPTCHA where you play Doom on Nightmare difficulty

Quick Summary:

Surprisingly (or unsurprisingly? ) this is not the first Doom CAPTCHA.

It's been a long-running joke that developers will make Doom run on absolutely anything, so it's not much of a surprise that it's now running inside something that resembles a CAPTCHA.

The app essentially amounts to a small Doom level that is playable with keyboard controls (arrow keys to move, space bar to shoot) within a CAPTCHA-like presentation.
