We’ve all seen the crazy platforms that people have gotten Doom to work on, but it looks like hackers and modders have finally moved on to other games now that they’ve run out of weird places to play Doom.
As an example, this person is playing Counter-Strike: Global Offensive on a smartwatch. The box under the watch says it’s made by Timon, and since it can play CS: GO, we can assume it has some kind of networking feature.

It can also show custom images on a tiny square screen and take input from a Logitech keyboard and mouse that are almost as small as the screen.
But no one knows how to turn a smartwatch into a tiny CS: GO platform that can be used on the go. It’s probably the same process that Bennet Bytes used five years ago to get the first Counter-Strike game to run on his Android-based smartwatch.
That hack ran badly and couldn’t connect to the internet. It seems like technology has changed so much in the last five years that you can now play CS: GO on your wrist.
Although it has been out for more than ten years, CS: GO still has a massive following around the world. As evidence, CS: GO celebrated its tenth-anniversary last month with 1,039,889 players.
The average number of players appears to have decreased slightly from August’s numbers, but September’s highest player count of 1,100,366 players was even greater.
If you want to play Counter-Strike: Global Offensive on the go, you’re better off with Valve’s Steam Deck than running it on your watch.
It may take some getting used to if you’re not familiar with using a joystick or touchpad, but you can always attach a mouse and keyboard. In fact, Valve has increased production, so you could perhaps get your Steam Deck before the holidays.
