CHIP-8 Emulator

CHIP-8 is an interpreted programming language, developed by Joseph Weisbecker. It was initially used on the COSMAC VIP and Telmac 1800 8-bit microcomputers in the mid-1970s. CHIP-8 programs are run on a CHIP-8 virtual machine. It was made to allow video games to be more easily programmed for said computers.

Use

  • c to change the game
  • r to restart the game
  • p/u to pause/unpause the game
  • esc to exit chip-8 emulator

Compile

There aren't any platform-specific things in this chip-8 emulator. To compile it, you'll need to download libSDL. Compile chip8.c with any C compiler.
