From Wikipedia

CHIP-8 is an interpreted programming language, developed by Joseph Weisbecker on his 1802 microprocessor. It was initially used on the COSMAC VIP and Telmac 1800, which were 8-bit microcomputers made in the mid-1970s. CHIP-8 was designed to use less memory than other programming languages like BASIC, while still being easier to program than machine code. The language looks like machine code as it uses hexadecimal codes for instructions, but as an interpreter, like BASIC, it does not need to be assembled or linked before running. CHIP-8 interpreters have since been made for many devices, such as home computers, microcomputers, graphing calculators, mobile phones, and video game consoles.
