# OldschoolEngine 2 Emscripten port

Minimal line-based Commodore 64 emulator that emulates just enough to run the recent Covert Bitops C64 games (Hessian, Steel Ranger...) 

This is a C++ / Emscripten port that runs on web pages.

The original "oldschoolengine" ran on GameBoy Advance to run Metal Warrior 4, and it used a custom API for graphics, sound and file access. In contrast,

this project emulates a limited subset of an actual C64, so that the game can run unmodified.

Features:

- CPU emulation based on EMU6502 code by Yve Verstrepen

- Parts of SID emulation (noise, filter) based on jsSID by Mihaly Horvath

- Emscripten build system & OpenGL initialization based on tiny_chess by Jukka Jylänki

- Line-based VIC-II rendering

- Raster interrupt + partial CIA1 Timer A emulation

- Joystick port 2 control with arrows + ctrl as fire button

- Keyboard input

- D64 & D81 image support, loading / saving via minimal (and incorrect) Kernal routine traps

- Save file persistence

TODO:

- Full key mappings

## Building

To build, the Emscripten compiler (emcc) and CMake are needed. Invoke CMake by specifying the generator and path to Emscripten's CMake toolchain.

`cmake . -G"Unix Makefiles" -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=MyPathToEmscripten.cmake`
