Flixel-8 v1.0.0

First Release!

Flixel-8, a Chip-8 emulator, written in Haxe, powered by HaxeFlixel.

Download

Currently, there is no native builds of Windows, MacOS, and Linux versions yet, however you can freely do it yourself! But there is a Windows Hashlink build, which is a Windows build, with Haxe's Hashlink VM built in. (Can we say VM-ception is going on)

Hashlink (Windows)

  1. Download it from here, or on the releases page.
  2. Unzip the folder
  3. Open the Flixel-8.exe
  4. You are ready to go!

Controls

The Chip-8 used the COSMAC VIP keypad, which in the emulator is mapped to a keyboard as so:

 COSMAC VIP          Flixel-8
------------       ------------
|1||2||3||C|       |1||2||3||4|
|4||5||6||D|  -->  |Q||W||E||R|
|7||8||9||E|       |A||S||D||F|
|A||0||B||F|       |Z||X||C||V|
------------       ------------

Pressing [SPACE] anytime brings up the menu where you could load/reload roms, change the number of instructions per cycle, and themes.

Usage

  • Popular Chip-8 roms are already included in the assets/data directory, however you add your own roms here
  • Note that when inputting the rom name, it's already pointed to the assets/data directory
  • Also note when inputting the rom name, for capital letters, use the [SHIFT] key
