Yes, the emulator is fully in Lua ^^

Will see to make a decent release soon.

How does the speed compare with the original thing? I couldn't find the Space Invader and Breakout clones shown in the first post so I couldn't compare.

Well, there isn't a 'real' thing, but the only other CHIP-8 emulator I tested was slower

But maybe I just didn't test a good one ^.^

If it was on the computer, then how did an emulator of a '80s device manage to be slower on a GHz processor speed machine?

Well, it was made in Javascript. But still, it could have been faster.
Or I'm just emulating too fast...
