Brainfuck & Friends: Esoteric Programmers' Hall of Fame

Doom Runs in Brainfuck Now

A weekly roundup of 13 new GitHub repos in the Brainfuck and Befunge ecosystems, May 5–12 2026. Headlined by BFDoom — the full Doom source compiled to a 518 MB Brainfuck file — and TopoCore, a Befunge-inspired spatial execution architecture down to FPGA-ready SystemVerilog. Plus a cat-noise dialect, a Brainfuck JIT on MLIR, and a Java repo whose entire README is "I'm bored."
