When you've completed all the finishing touches on your submission(s) to the Octojam, please consider contributing your software to the CHIP-8 Archive. This repository gathers together dozens of modern CHIP-8, SCHIP, and XO-CHIP programs, including most of the entries from previous Octojams.

Everything in the archive is made available under a highly-permissive CC0 license: This allows future generations to learn from and remix all the great CHIP-8 software we've built over the years without falling into a murky gray area of copyright. The archive also stores all the metadata for entries, so future emulators can display games with the intended palettes and compatibility settings, and many entries include source code and other raw assets. The source directory can contain supplementary information about a program, including links to your itch pages, other online source repos, and postmortems.

Participation in the archive  is entirely optional: it's up to you!
