This is a simple CHIP-8 virtual machine written in C.
This project is mainly an exercise in emulator programming.

CHIP-8 was an interpreted bytecode to allow games to be easily programmed
for mid-1970s 8-bit microcomputers.

Compiles with gcc or clang. Not tested on Windows.

Requires SDL2 for input and rendering.

Compile with `gcc main.c -lSDL2 -o chip8` on Linux. A sample is included, and can be
loaded via `./chip8 Fishie.ch8`
