  • Yet Another CHIP-8 Tutorial #

    I, too, have written a CHIP-8 tutorial, to try and help others get started. I hope to expand on it, based on feedback and suggestions. It is tightly coupled with the CHIP-8 test suite by Timendus. The tutorial tries to be programming language agnostic, but will be coupled with some example code for a selection of languages if one is totally stuck or out of ideas.

    (The tutorial is still a work in progress, and not yet published.)

  • CHIP-8 Resources #

    My collection of knowledge and resources about CHIP-8 and its variants. Over the last years I have implemented over twenty variants of CHIP-8 and collected a few insights into the inner workings of most variants out there. The reference is my attempt to document them all. It sure will take time to complete, but I hope it helps you in your endeavor.

The aquarelle looking illustrations used throughout this site are generated with the help of DALL·E 3 and manual post processing. The project is not affiliated with or endorsed by OpenAI. The pictures were created and selected to mimic the original COSMAC VIP manual illustration style and tagged by me with AI image to make obvious that I did not paint them myself, I just touched up some of them. Sadly I’m not an artist.
