CHIP-8 emulator in gawk
Requirements: gawk 5.0.1 or higher and the gawk 'time' plugin (part of the ubuntu gawk package)
Some chill weekend in late december (why do I always have these ideas around the holidays?) I thought I'd like to build an emulator of sorts, since I never have before. The simplest one and highly recommended, was the CHIP-8. Low-res monochrome display, minimum spec hardware and only 36 opcodes. That sounds like my kinda project.
So a weekend later I had a working example and this is the result.
Here's an example running the emulator: https://youtu.be/no2hFiuz42Y
