PJohannessen / CHIP-8

CHIP-8 emulator written in .NET Core / C#

CHIP-8

Yet another CHIP-8 emulator/interpreter, this one written in C# running on .NET Core 3.1.

This project is purely for fun and self education. There is a wealth of more detailed and accurate resources available. Should I ever complete enough of it I intend to create (yet another) blog series detailing its creation.

Prerequisites

• .NET Core 3.1
• SDL2

Tested on Windows 10 and MacOS Catalina, but should be compatible anywhere that .NET Core 3.1 and SDL2 are supported.

Getting Started

• Install .NET Core 3.1
• Install .NET
• cd /src
• dotnet run

Resources

This project would not be possible without the following:

• Matthew Mikolay's Mastering CHIP-8
• mirz's CHIP-8 Emulator for comparing ROM execution
• Emulating a PlayStation 1 (PSX) entirely with C# and .NET for the initial spark of inspiration
