CHIP-8 Emulator


Chip 8 is an interpreted programming language created to program games in computers in mid 1970s. Since the language just has 36 instructions, this is probably a good place to start if you want to get into emulator programming.

The following resources proved very helpful while i was coding the interpreter.

Card game


Jut Pati

Jut Pati is a popular game in Nepal. This game is very much based on luck.7 cards get dealt to each player. The idea is simple. Just match pairs. (i.e 7, 7 8, 8 A, A). Each takes turn taking a card from the deck, doing necessary matching and then throwing a card to the other player. The other player tries to match the thrown card. If it doesnt. He picks another card from the deck do necessary matching and throws the card. This cycle continues until one player matches all the cards so he has no card in his hand. The one who matches all the pairs first wins.


Note: Because the game doesn't have a pre-loader, please wait some time for the game to appear. Initially, it'll show a blank screen because the game is loading.
