Not my project, it just happened to pop up in my recommended feed. If this can be accomplished for Doom, could this be re-utilized for other homebrew applications? I would be very interested in seeing if you could get increased performance with Half-Life or Half-Life mods

Other Homebrew can adopt it, nothing is stopping it. Half life and other commercial games no, at least not without the source code.
