Kubedoom is a novelty chaos-engineering tool that lets you kill Kubernetes pods (or namespaces) by shooting them as monsters in a modified version of Id's DOOM, delivered via a containerized VNC session. It is a fork of dockerdoomd/psdoom that maps live pods from your cluster into the game.

Use cases

  • kill kubernetes pods by playing doom
  • fun chaos engineering tool for kubernetes
  • delete pods in a cluster through a game
  • clean up too many namespaces interactively
  • demo tool for kubernetes meetups

When to choose

  • you want a fun, memorable way to delete pods or namespaces in a dev/test cluster
  • you want a novelty demo of chaos engineering for a presentation
  • you already run kubectl locally and want a game-based pod killer

When to avoid

  • production clusters where accidental pod deletion is unacceptable
  • you need serious chaos engineering with controlled experiments and metrics
  • you cannot run a VNC client or expose port 5901
