RSS Bot Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 In my last entry I've posted one mockup, Pac-Man for RCA studio II. At first a bizarre idea, today I did progress. I've start to study about Chip-8 programming, and did progress! In less than an hour I've written an hello word code. Chip-8 is a language that come from Cosmac VIP computer released by RCA in 1977. It's basically a RCA studio II computer. There are many emulator for chip-8, even for gamming platforms such gameboy and vectrex. Today there is super and mega chip-8 variations with more resolution and in color. The video display 64x32 monocrome pixels of resolution and single sound channel. I find quite easy and fun to code, at least in the first hour. Don't know why I'm codding for it. Mainly because I have tons of projects to finish. I think because the challenge. My next step is a playable pong. http://www.atariage.com/forums/blog/263/entry-7421-programming-chip-8-rca-1802/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
