DOOM Shareware (homebrew) on PC: compatibility evidence

This is lowbit’s PS5 homebrew port of classic DOOM Shareware, not a retail PS5 DOOM release. The selected newer Windows report identifies main 97445386f without extra PRs and provides screenshots of the launcher, menus and E1M1. Source ↗

The tester checked movement, firing once, collecting a health bonus and opening the automap. Both a cold and warm shader-cache run stayed on AGC compute presentation. Earlier CPU-scaler reports remain historical evidence rather than a universal current blocker. Source ↗
