Simple DirectMedia Layer is a cross-platform multimedia library designed to provide low level access to audio, keyboard, mouse, joystick, 3D hardware via OpenGL, and 2D video framebuffer. It is used by MPEG playback software, emulators, and many popular games.

Release notes from Mindcry:

I started to port SDL to the Wii only to see that the guys at devkitpro already had a partially working GC version. I just played around with it here and there. The code for sdl sound i borrowed somewhere from the SDL mailinglist, unfortunately it isn’t working properly. I havn’t yet found the time to play around with sound, i just hoped it would work 😛

Barrage is a rather violent action game with the objective to kill and destroy as many targets as possible within 3 minutes. You control a gun that may either fire small or large grenades at soldiers, jeeps and tanks. Targets are fast paced and require careful aiming as it takes half a second to reload the gun. Additionally you have to keep an eye on your ammo and reload in time.

Release notes from Mindcry:

I just compiled the source against the modified SDL library and surprisingly it compiled without a problem 😉
The middle mouse button is not yet simulated and i disabled the sound as it is not working correctly.

The original source code can be found here: http://lgames.sourceforge.net/index.php?project=Barrage

Thanks to Michael Speck for the cool game!

GRRLIB for GX RGB Renderer Library provides lots of nice functions for programming beginners.

All versions of GRRLIB before 3.0 are not supported anymore dueto the lack of real full GX support.

libwiisprite is a C++ sprite library written for the Wii which utilises GX for all it’s graphical operations, meaning the GPU is used to accelerate graphics.

libwiisprite aims to make developing Wii homebrew simple and fun with better graphical results than currently existing libraries.

All possible pngs can be loaded, even the ones with an alpha layer, so you can get started immediately!

The library comes with full Doxygen documentation to help get development started. It is also available online: http://feesh.braingravy.co.uk/libwiisprite/

Changes:

Added a reference pixel system. It allows to rotate and scale a sprite around a specific point on itself. Check the documentation how to use it. The spritetest example also has a little example on it.
Fixed a huge memory leak when loading an image which was in every previous version. Upgrading is recommended.
Several speedups which can increase the speed of the library when drawing Sprites and TiledLayers, or even assigning Images.

Nuvalo has posted some information and a link to a Youtube video which shows he’s gotten XSERVER booting on the Nintendo Wii. It’s still in early stages, but looks promising.

Quote from Nuvalo:

Hi good news: The xserver runs !!!!! XD XD XD:

Here is a video, booting the T2 SDE 6.0 linux distribution for powerpc. It boots from an external usb hard disk, using the SD card as a pivot root. It can´t boot directly to an USB hard disk, as it isn´t recognized at boot time. The colours are wrong, as the X server runs in RGB mode, and the wii framebuffer only supports yuv2 colours. And the usb mouse doesn´t seems to work. Anyway, it shows how to boot, the login and little more. Here is the video:
