"Unavailable" Chip-8 Games

 Hi again folks!

While checking the net (webpages, videos, blogs, etc...) sometime i stumble on Chip-8 games that i can't find to download anywhere. So when i was looking on Youtube, i have found this video:

Chip 8 Old Tech in a New Light

 

The professor's name is Wil Lindsay and he teaches many type of programming (old computer, OS, 3D, etc) and last year he gave a course of RCA Cosmac Chip-8 to his students. He made a presentation for the Vintage Computer Festival East 2020 which was a "virtual" event (damn pandemic) which was held on October 10th and 11th, 2020.

His students made some Chip-8 games which are:

Salem Witch (by Janet Dennis(?))

Lumber Jack (by Cody Lynch)

Duck Run (by V. Kreepmer(?))

8-Bit Operatives (by Vincent Nelson)

Pirates of Karl Bean (by Ray Osterman)

Sorry if i made mistakes in the authors names, hoping that one of them or Wil Lindsay will see this post and correct me. 

This is five Chip-8 games that unfortunately we can't test/play them but maybe one day, these and surely others, will be available to enjoy (keeping my fingers crossed). ;)

Until next, take care!
