## Chip8(++)

This is an emulator written in modern **C++17**. It is somewhat buggy but you can load roms
and draw sprites on the screen, and play games!

- [ ] Parsing CLI options (scale size, colors, and so on...)
- [x] Implement timers
- [x] Implement sound
- [ ] Separate namespace in different files.
- [ ] Creating a CMake file.
- [ ] Run on other platforms (e.g., Linux).
- [ ] Experiment other emulation techniques for the main fetch-decode-execute loop: threaded-code, just-in-time compilation...
