Per the README:

You will need a WAD file (game data). If you don't own the game, the shareware version is freely available.

A download link can be found e.g. at the bottom of the following page: https://web.archive.org/web/20240720123207/https://doomwiki.org/wiki/DOOM1.WAD . You may have to rename it to DOOM1.WAD, as the linux filesystem is case-sensitive.

I would advise against downloading the very conspicuous executable linked in the above comment (which appears to have now been deleted).
