>there's no evidence that the game was played on a mouse
The first demo of the first release of the game uses a mouse. Most or all of the other demos in future versions use the mouse as well. There's also an old video of the id office where Romero shows off Doom, using a mouse. Ball mice sucked compared to how good optical mice would get, but they were still better than anything else in 1993 and they were plenty common.
