Pretty much every touted feature is WIP, definitely all the important ones. So yeah no that's vaporware.

Does the Doom demo actually work? That'd be enough for me to call it "not vaporware" by a longshot.

IIUC they use chocolate-doom that has approximately 600 .c files, and replace one of them with a .v file. I don't understand what they mean when they say

> DOOM translated from C to V. Builds in 0.7 seconds (x25 speed-up).
