BF -> Chip8 Compiler

This project compiles BrainFuck Code into Chip8 assembly, which can be run on any Chip8 interpreter.

Web Version

You can play around with an online Javascript version on my website.

Limitations

  • 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.
