🎮 Interpreter for the Chip-8, written in C++.
The 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 these computers. From wikipedia.
The chip-8 interpreter is found in chip8.cpp and chip8.hpp which exposes methods for use in your own program. Otherwise main.cpp contains a sample emulator written with SDL. This can be built using:
make
make install
