# chip8

A Chip-8 emulator written in Java and OpenGL via the LWJGL library.

There were images but they have been deleted from giphy :(, Will reupload later.

[Chip-8](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CHIP-8) is an interpreted programming language intended to run on Chip-8 virtual machines. 

Chip-8 systems only have 35 opcodes, making them fairly easy to emulate and a good introduction into emulators. 

The following commands should open up a window and allow you to play pong. (1 and Q are up and down respectively.)

```

./gradlew build

./gradlew run

```

Not implemented: Sound, Super Chip8 instruction set
