Hexen is port of Hexen for dingux.

[edit] Installation

copy the hhexen-sdl file anywhere on your root filesystem and copy the hexen.wad (all lowercase letters) in the same directory. You'll need a 1.1 version of the hexen.wad file in order to get the most compatibility, the game will warn you about this by default and you'll have to press enter if you want to continue running the game.

To launch it with dmenu use this in your dmenu.cfg (adjust your folders accordingly) :

   MenuItem Hexen
   {
       Icon = "res/games/hexen.png"
       Name = "Hexen"
       Executable = "./hhexen-sdl"
       WorkDir = "/usr/local/games/hexen"
   }

[edit] Changelog

8 bit to 16 bit conversion (thanks to fanoush for pointing out that sdl can do this by itself) added the putenv("SDL_NOMOUSE=1") centered the game screen on the dingoo screen since the game normally runs in 320x200 mode.

[edit] Notes

the L/R triggers can't be used for strafing, unless you modify the sources and i wasn't in the mode to change all that. you can however easily bind it to Y or some other button.
