CHIP-8 Instruction Set
A collection of CHIP-8 programs, games, demos, and technical documentation for the classic virtual machine.
What is CHIP-8 Instruction Set?
CHIP-8 is a collection of programs and documentation for the classic CHIP-8 interpreted programming language and virtual machine. It provides games, demos, utilities, and comprehensive technical references for developers interested in retro computing or implementing CHIP-8 emulators. The project serves as both a practical software collection and an educational resource about this influential early computing platform.
Developers interested in retro computing, emulator development, or computer history who want to explore or implement CHIP-8 systems. It's also valuable for educators teaching about virtual machines and early programming environments.
This collection offers a well-documented, curated set of CHIP-8 programs alongside comprehensive technical references that are often scattered across the internet. The open licensing and organized structure make it easier to study, modify, and learn from these classic programs compared to finding individual resources elsewhere.
