FiSSION v0.01 (Wii misc)

FiSSION is a homebrew 3D game engine being developed for the Nintendo Wii. Its goal is to allow homebrew developers the opportunity to develop studio-quality games without the massive upfront investment of writing a game engine to support their content.

This is a very early demonstration build of this project, which allows users to select and browse game levels, rendered real-time in 3D.

Paradroid v0.5 (Wii Game Port)

A version of SDL Paradroid compiled for the Wii to fill the void in the U.S., where the virtual console lacks C64 games. This version is created from the GPL’ed source code from SDL Paradroid and uses the same data files.

You start off as a ‘Influence device’, your task is to clear the ship of all the rogue robots. Movement is by the arrow keys, Left control is the action key. Press it while you are moving and you will shoot your lasers, hold it down while not moving and you will go into transfer mode. This allows you to take over other droids. Pressing it down while over a terminal will take you into the ships computers, where you can view information about droid, ship view and a map of your current level.

Changes:

Crashing due to the old SDL Port from Gamecube should be gone now
Changes in v0.5
Lift teleport issue should be fixed
Now relatively stable with no crashes during testing thanks to a new version of SDL
Performance has improved considerably with the new SDL
The delay after configuring droids is now gone
Files now combined into 1 7-Zip file for easier setup
Enjoy!

Harmonium v1 (Beta 2) (Wii Application)

Harmonium is, to put it plainly, a musical doodling tool. The user can manipulate notes on a 16×16 grid to create melodies within a pentatonic scale. On top of this already addictive concept, you can bring things to life by enabling Conway’s Game of Life! It’s not the easiest thing to explain, so just try it!

Changes:

Implemented a few features I’d like feedback on before implementing the rest and releasing v1.
New features:
Adjustable tempo
Adjustable volume
2 new GoL modes
Grid shifting
64 grid history
New timing mechanism means even playback
