CHS-8
A downloadable fantasy console for Windows and Linux
CHS-8 is a true 8-bit fantasy console based purely around assembly.
It features:
-16 kb of ram
- 64kb "disks" where assembled programs are stored that support up to 16,000 lines of program code each
- a 48x48 display at 4 bits per pixel for a total of 16 colors
- an A, X, and Y register to store 3 8-bit values at once in
- a real-time program counter system
- four flags for comparisons, math, and flow control
- clock speeds of up to 1.65 mhz
- disk and program exporting to share your programs
- a ram viewer
- A fully fledged program editor
- A custom assembly instruction set and assembler built just for it, and built in! Largely based on the 6502 assembly used for the NES or Apple II
- Documentation on every instruction plus "the basics" to get you started!
Have fun! I had a huge amount of fun creating this and I love writing programs for it, and I know you will too!
DISCLAIMER: This is very complicated. If you aren't familiar with old computers, assembly, or how computers function at a low level, this may be very difficult to understand and make programs for. This program may also not run well on low-end hardware.
