i joined because learning a low level language its something i really want to... and it can be like.. an introduction for assembly (kinda)... and the style of the jam page reminds me so much of one of my childhood games called "stack attack" i had on my siemens a52 phone.. i think it will be a good jam

Chip8 and Octo are a great way to dip your toes into assembly language. While Octo's syntax is a bit nonstandard, all the core concepts- bits and bytes, labels, registers, 8-bit arithmetic- will carry over to other assemblers and architectures in the future. I hope you have fun!

Learning common tricks for speeding up math calculations (e.g., '((x << 2) + x) << 1)' instead of 'x * 10') is a fun experience as well.
