A CHIP-8 Emulator written in Rust.
The Emulator's clock speed, window size and pixel size are configured through the use of constants defined in chip8.rs. Their values can be altered to change some behavior.
These instructions assume that both git and Rust toolchain are installed and available.
$ git clone https://github.com/vcoutasso/chip8-rs ; cd chip8-rs # Clone repository and cd into the directory
$ cargo build --release # The release flag is optional but recommended$ cargo run --release <PATH/TO/ROM>The original CHIP-8 had a 16-key hexadecimal keypad with the following layout:
| 1 | 2 | 3 | C |
| 4 | 5 | 6 | D |
| 7 | 8 | 9 | E |
| A | 0 | B | F |
The following is the implemented layout that better fits the QWERTY keyboard layout:
| Q | W | E | R |
| A | S | D | F |
| U | I | O | P |
| J | K | L | ; |
The following are screenshots of the Emulator working with default settings on some well-known ROM files.
