This project compiles BrainFuck Code into Chip8 assembly, which can be run on any Chip8 interpreter.
You can play around with an online Javascript version on my website.
- Compiled programs must fit within 3840 bytes.
- An empty file is 424 bytes, each operator character (i.e. one of .<>+-) requires 2 bytes and very loop instruction ([]) requires 3 bytes.
- There are 256 tape positions, the tape will loop back to 0 on an overflow.
- On most emulators due to stack constraints you can only have 15 nested loops.
- Chip8 runs at 500 hertz, so any programs running on a standard interpreter will be very slow.
- Programs cannot take any input.
