A fantasy console in Python and Pygame. Currently a WIP.

Emulak was released by a little-known company called Serix in early 1990. It was meant to be a competitor to the GameBoy. It featured similar opcodes to that of the GameBoy's processor (both being based on the Z80) but it lacked VBlank interrupts and other similar features. It contained a small keyboard (Editor's note: think flip-phone keyboard) that was memory-mapped, as well as a few other registers. Due to how it was made, VRAM could be written to and read from at any time. Unfortunately for Serix, it was marketed poorly and never sold as well as the other GameBoy competitors. It was so obscure that nobody even bothered to document it! Serix, after facing the financial burden of the failure of the Emulak, filed for bankruptcy and quietly folded.

Run make to make an instruction list from list.txt (use when you've made a new opcode and added it to the list)

Run make test to run a test using a program. (The test ends when the program enters an infinite loop to the same address)

Run make debug to start Emulak in debug mode.

Run make examples to make the examples (binary files in examples/)

The way Emulak is implemented is also an FC! Simply subclass game.BaseGame and provide your own init, update and draw methods and modify main.py to load your class instead of Emulak!
