I have just uploaded a new port of the Octo CHIP-8 emulator by John Earnest to small ESP32 devices with touchscreens.

My hope is to create a fun device that allows playing and - ultimately - writing CHIP-8 games completely on such a device, without the need for a connected PC.

Here is the repo: https://github.com/codekulturbonn/espocto - comments and pull requests welcome.

1802 was my first assembly-language machine... It was slow, but pretty amazing. 16 16-bit registers, and any of them can be used as an index or stack pointer!
