As cool as this is, to me this just screams security issues. If scripting in PDF can run doom, it can be (and is) used for nefarious purposes. Wasn’t eg. LTT’s channel compromized because of a PDF with some nasty stuff in it?

Just because you can render a game using scripting doesn’t mean your script can escape the PDF reader.
You can build a fully working Turing machine inside PowerPoint, but without an exploit you are still not going to run code outside the PowerPoint environment
