GB-8 is a CHIP-8 interpreter for the Gameboy Color. It comes pre-loaded with a whole bunch of CHIP-8 ROMs and is easily expandable and modular. And thanks to the small size of CHIP-8 ROMs, it even fits onto a 32KB cartridge.
Installation
Simply download the newest version from the Releases Section and load it up on hardware or on your favorite Game Boy emulator.
