Wee Basic is a BASIC interpreter for the NDS – programming and debugging are performed on the DS.

Wee Basic now allows the use of sprites and backgrounds so you can try your hand with real Nintendo DS games using simple BASIC.

Release notes:

Version 0.4

To use the demo program,put Wee and all of the gif files and demo.txt into the root directory of your card.
Then load the demo in Wee Basic, press A or start to run and enjoy!
Don’t forget to DLDI patch Wee for your card.

Fixed:
– bugs with nested ifs

Added:
– neo splash screen
– sprites on both screens (must be gif files)
– backgrounds on both screens (must be gif files)
– can uses start or A to start a program running
– new commands:

loadspr number,screen,x,y,,width,height,file name (creates a sprite specified by the file name on the screen specified at the specified coordinates)
movspr number, screen, x,y (moves an existing sprite specified by the number to new coordinates x and Y on the screen)
delspr number, screen (deletes the specified sprite)
backgr screen, file name (creates a background on the specified screen with the gif file specified by the file name)

Notes:
– file names must be valid gif files and you must specify the full file name
– gif files must be kept in the root directory of your card
– don’t try to move or delete sprites that you haven’t created
– each screen has its own numbered sprites, so you can specify the number 1 for a sprite on the top and bottom screens but don’t specify the same number for sprites on the same screen

(Look at the demo program for examples)

The aim of the game is to pop as many bugz as possible by starting a chain reaction of bugz popping. Each level has a varying amount of available bugz and a set target for the number of bugz you must pop to advance to the next level. You only get one attempt per level, so choose your initial position wisely, timing is key!

Bumper Harvest is a tribute to a very popular (and very addictive) casual game for the PC.

Instructions:

Use the D-Pad to aim the ball launcher left and right.
Hold down L to fine-tune your aiming.
Fire the ball by pressing X.
As the ball hits the small bumpers, they light up and are removed from the
field. Hit all the red bumpers to progress to the next level.

Red bumpers are worth 200 points; all others are worth 100 points.
Green bumpers give you 3 targeting guides each. There are two on each level.
Hold down R while aiming to use a targeting guide.
Guides are not saved between levels, so use ’em or lose ’em.
The yellow bumper gives you a bonus score multiplier. There is one on each level. All bumpers hit after the yellow bumper on the current shot are worth 10 times their normal score.
There are also two fixed bumpers on each level which are simply obstacles, and two active bumpers which give the ball a boost.
At the bottom of the screen is the return chute, which gives you a free ball if the ball lands in it at the end of the shot.
