"DOOM is a classic game to implement on a variety of platforms, but doompdf by [ading2210] is one we didn’t see coming. It runs a bit slow and controls are a little awkward but it does run. Entirely within a PDF file, at that."

So, soon we'll see Bad Apple in PDF too. If it isn't already out there.

Apparently it's 6,500 files.

Also not the only one.

Heh, that's one way to do it I guess. It would be more impressive with this doompdf format though, especially with ASCII.
