As an excel developer in the 90's, this brings up great memories. I wrote the Doom Excel credits in Office 95. I wish I'd had thought of doing this instead. Kudos.
My brain is desperately attempting to recall the sequence of steps to open it. Ctrl + Shift, clicking something in the Help -> About... dialog box, then F5 or something? And/or there was a star-wars scroller in one of other apps, right?
As a less extreme example, an implementation of the AES cipher in Excel formulas (no macros): https://www.nayuki.io/page/aes-cipher-internals-in-excel

It renders in LibreOffice - although I wasn't able to get the movement to work, even after enabling macros.
Try logging a bug, I know it might seem ridiculous but it may help with efforts to improve VBA compatibility.
Since Excel is a pure functional programming paradigm, I suppose this will make FP people happy to see FP taken so far without mixing in any imperative constructs. It's the Übermensch of functional 3d engines.

And uses ASCII characters. MegaZeux up'd the ante and allowed you to edit the VGA text glyphs so you could make "sprites."
Back-in-the-day Megazeux and ZZT were like their own dedicated systems, like software console systems. It was really fun to see what people did with incredibly constrained systems.

Sadly LibreOffice ignores user bug reports.
Hardly. Why do you say that? I have personally worked on bugs reported by end users.
