A chip8 emulator that I implemented in C++. It only implements the SCHIP instruction set, and can play many modern roms found online. There's a basic memory viewer and debugger available as well.

![example result](misc/output.png)

This emulator also comes with a basic compiler that takes a C-style language as input and can spit out valid CHIP-8 code:
```
var count = 3;
label(main);
count += 3;
draw_char(0, 5, count)
jump(main);
```
