Chip-8 emulator for watchOS, macOS and tvOS
I then thought it might be nice to see it running on an Apple Watch. This was initially done by a copy and paste of the core emulator logic and wrapping watchOS specific stuff. The interesting bit here for me was how to map Apple Watch controls to 16 keys and the answer to that was that I didn't! Instead I curated ROMs and their controls to find ones that could be controlled with 4 inputs (crown up, crown down, tap and long press). This has the downside of meaning you cannot play any old ROM on it, but the upside that the curated ROMs have relatively nice watchOS controls.

Chip-8 emulator for watchOS, macOS and tvOS
I've been working on my first emulator project which started out as Chip-8 for macOS. It seems to run a lot of ROMs ok, but there are definitely some issues:
