CHIP-8VR is an immersive CHIP-8 Virtual Reality Emulator for Android.

CHIP-8 is an interpreted programming language, developed by Joseph Weisbecker. It was initially used on the COSMAC VIP and Telmac 1800 8-bit microcomputers in the mid-1970s. The emulator supports keybords & gamepads for input, to emulate those 16 buttons CHIP-8 uses .


6 games are included:

-Airplane
-Pong
-Tetris
-Brix
-Invaders
-UFO


Those are released under a public domain, so its completely legal to include them.
Supports loading & playing games (.ch8 files) from SD-Card or internal Memory.

Price: 0,89€ (need money for getting a Dive or another HMD, i do not own a HMD currently)

Seems like a cool idea man. I'll give it a go. You need a HMD!

My lousy phone doesn't work with the Snakebyte properly so I can't play the games in this, but it's one of the best for immersion. I just like walking around in the den.

If youre phone doesnt works with the snakebyte controller, think about get another one which works with your phone & set it up under "Settings->Setup cotnrolsl". Glad you like the immersion =)

Actually got some freetime and working on my next VR project. If you may interested in beta testing, contact me for more informations =)
