crisp-ate

A chip-8 emulator in Rust, using raylib for graphics. For emulation learning purposes.

Based on:

• https://multigesture.net/articles/how-to-write-an-emulator-chip-8-interpreter/
• https://tobiasvl.github.io/blog/write-a-chip-8-emulator/

^ not actual graphics (yet), but I'm aiming towards something similar (image taken from the first link)

Usage

$ git clone https://github.com/adoroburrito/crisp-ate
$ cd crip-ate
$ cargo run ""
