From the project

Code for my 6502 build

compy6502 is an early-stage 6502 homebrew computer project. The long-term goal is to build enough hardware and firmware to run Tetris on the machine.

The design follows the spirit of Ben Eater-style breadboard/modular 6502 systems for simplicity and debuggability, but uses a different memory map based on the MMU/address-decoder architecture in docs/mmu.png.

The repo currently includes KiCad hardware designs, early ROM bring-up firmware, build/write scripts, emulator test scaffolding, and architecture reference images in docs/.
