thanks, i know its nothing special, but i literally threw it together for an australian magazine thingy, so budding authors have something to go off. But if it helps with your emu thats all that matters
i think we shouldn´t understimate a Chip8 emulator........ indeed is nothing special(in comparation to emulators for consoles etc) but if you think what we learn from it then you will realize is actually very special because most of us started with a chip8 emulator that help us get the idea how emulation works.
