CHIP-8

CHIP-8 is a programming language developed in the 1970s by Joseph Weisbecker. It was designed to allow easy programming of video games on 8-bit microcomputers. CHIP-8 programs are typically run on a virtual machine, which interprets the CHIP-8 instructions. CHIP-8 was very popular in the early days of home computing, as it was easy to learn and allowed people to create their own games. Many classic games, such as Space Invaders and Pac-Man, were originally written in CHIP-8. Today, CHIP-8 is not widely used, but it is still known and used by some retro gaming enthusiasts.
