# Flixel-8 v1.0.0

**First Release!**

Flixel-8, a Chip-8, written in Haxe, powered by HaxeFlixel.

## Download
Currenly, there is no native builds of Windows, MacOS, and Linux versions yet, however you can freely do it yourself! But there is a Windows Hashlink build, which is a Windows build, with Haxe's Hashlink VM built in. *(Can we say VM-ception is going on)*

### Hashlink (Windows)
1. Download it from here, or on the releases page.
2. Unzip the folder
3. Open the Flixel-8.exe
4. You are ready to go!

## Controls
The Chip-8 used the COSMAC VIP keypad, which in the emulator is mapped to a keyboard as so:
```
 COSMAC VIP          Flixel-8
------------       ------------
|1||2||3||C|       |1||2||3||4|
|4||5||6||D|  -->  |Q||W||E||R|
|7||8||9||E|       |A||S||D||F|
|A||0||B||F|       |Z||X||C||V|
------------       ------------
```
Pressing [SPACE] anytime brings up the menu where you could load/reload roms, change the number of instructions per cycle, and themes.

## Usage
- Popular Chip-8 roms are already included in the `assets/data` directory, however you add your own roms here
- Note that when inputing the rom name, it's already pointed to the `assets/data` directory
- Also note when inputing the rom name, for capital letters, use the [SHIFT] key
