CHIP-8 Interpreter

A CHIP-8 interpreter written in Go and compiled to WebAssembly so that it can be run in the browser. Based on Colin Eberhardt's implementation of the project [1], which was originally done in Rust.

Usage

Build chip8.wasm using the Makefile:

make build

Start server.py to run locally:

python3 server.py

Finally, head to localhost:12345, choose a ROM, and press "Start" to play.
