You will need a bit of patience with this one 😇
No WASD, no strafe, not fair.
I got it by running around the imps and going for the grunts (all enemies are “monsters” in Doom)
Honestly, the easiest way is to move forward a bit. The imps can’t hit you, and the grunts will come toward you, so it becomes a shooting gallery instead of you being in a bullet hell.
Reposting from my other reply: There is strafe actually, even two ways of doing it, using original DOS bindings:

. For me the easiest way to do it without strafe is just to move forward a bit, then go back and wait for dudes to come in from the right. Dealing with imps is really hard since their fireballs are sped up significantly. I tried a bit more and it seems it’s possible to actually beat this level properly. You can get other weapons and powerups. It’s just really hard with speed mode and nightmare difficulty.
Near impossible on my tiny phone haha
If you shoot from cover, some come to find you. Back into corner and rapid fire, not a great plan, but got it on about 6th try.
It’s more that my phone is quite literally tiny. 3" screen, 480x854
what phone is that?
Unihertz Jelly Star. I wanted a modern phone smaller than my pixel 3. Seemed to be the only viable option at the time. It’s crazy how big phones are now, even the compact ones are bigger than what I class as a big phone
huh neat, I didn’t know that was a thing! I’m tempted because I feel like I’d be less inclined to doomscroll on it, which seems like a feature rather than a bug.
it seems kinda thick though, do you think it’s more comfy in a pocket despite that?
It’s more comfy in the pants despite the thickness.
Think about how much a thin but big phone sticks out when placed on a cylinder. This has less surface area that’s touching your leg so you barely feel it.
Doom scrolling can still happen on this phone like but it does make certain stuff just make me want to wait till I’m at a computer to do it instead, like shopping and whatnot. So I find that a plus, somewhat.
very late response but you sold me on it.

The awkward controls make it unfair.
… But then, IDKFA works
Which MEANS
An AI could totally cheat this.
An AI would play this better than any human.
