- Got Quake sorta kinda working. Finally got the maps to loads but I am having some issue working out the keys locking(like shift interrupts moving forward, etc), and the game instantly crashes the moment I select new game while already in-game.
If anyone wants to poke around at I think I might leave it as is for now.
Weighs in about 24mb as a single html file. Loads and plays on an archaic chromebook pretty well. However its super far from stable. The Doom port is way more playable.

(I remember the agonizing wait of downloading the Quake shareware on an old modem back when it came out. Just watching the demo reel play gives me the feels bigtime.)
