granite

Yet another CHIP-8 emulator, written in C++.

Video demonstration

Project structure

Currently, the whole interpreter is implemented in the chipvm.cpp and instructions.cpp files and it's 100% cross-platform. chipvm.hpp declares interfaces for drivers - modules, that do key scanning, rendering and other platform-dependent stuff. granite uses SFML library for rendering.

TO-DO

• [+] Implement LD Vx, K (load pressed key to register) instruction (can be done with SetWindowsHookEx on Windows) (update: see below)
• Implement all other drivers using SFML
• [+] Generalize instruction decoding
• Debug mode
• Command line interface (is it needed?)

Code of conduct

I don't know what must happen to life that you want to contribute to this, but if you have absolutely nothing to do, I would be glad if somebody wrote drivers for Linux (not those drivers, drivers for granite).
