Chip-8 Emulator

A simple Chip-8 emulator made using SDL2.

Requirements

Requires SDL2. If you are using homebrew you can install it with the following:

$ brew install sdl2

Nix users can kindly ignore this.

Building

Non-nix users:

$ clang -o chip8 src/chip8.c `sdl2-config --cflags --libs`

Nix users:

$ nix build

This will generate a result symlink pointing to the nix-store with the binary.

Note: Requires experimental feature Flakes.

Usage

$ ./chip8 path/to/rom
