This is the beginnings of a 2D space shooter with destructible walls. You use the Wiimote to aim, the b button to shoot and the nunchuck analog stick to move. Shoot the round things that move towards you to survive and gain points. The wiimote vibrates when your being hurt. There is a lot left to be added and reworked but its functional at this point.

Further release notes:

Along with having black and white monochrome visuals the sprites are also noticeably pixelated. I took the retro pretend low rez thing a lot less serious then I did with Pineapple Apocalypse RPG though. The sprites are even blockier but well Pineapple Apocalypse RPG stuck rigidly to its fake pseudo 320×240 resolution 1bit Invaders simply doesn’t. The sprites get placed at any appropriate position on screen and things move more smoothly then would be possible if everything was being actually rendered at the low resolution that the blocky sprites might suggest it is.

Priiloader is a modified version of the officially discontinued Preloader. Preloader is a small application which places itself before the System Menu. Its main feature is to directly boot the Homebrew Channel or a file you can install from a FAT device. Preloader is also able to apply memory patches the system menu to remove limitations or other things. Warning! This homebrew makes permanent changes to your Wii’s flash memory (NAND) and should be used with caution.

Changes:

– Fixed bug with USBGecko
– Merged the old black theme with the new white one (thanks BlackPearl & Bad Uncle! ). they are changable in the settings
– Fix some elf loading
– Added a check on boot so some apps can reboot/launch system menu and force priiloader to show up (see magicword.zip)
– Fixed random (with very low % to actually happen)crash when loading dol/elf caused by wiimote
– Re-added USB support. USB is used if SD is not found
– Added Sanity checks when installing priiloader
– Fixed Bootstate bug which made the health check pop up when resetting wii(or returning to wii settings)
– Stopped priiloader from reloading ios if the chosen IOS = the already loaded IOS (in most cases System menu IOS)
– Added Stub IOS Detections when loading bootmii ios or IOS for System Menu. Only IOS 21 seems to be detected as stub…

TetriCycle is Tetris projected onto a cylindrical surface. Rotate the cylinder left/right such that the descending piece falls into place.

Release notes:

I consider this release “pre-alpha”, as it’s not yet feature complete, but homebrew tends not to follow the typical product development cycle; thus, this is the first “beta” release.

TransmitMii is a little tool to transmit your DOL, ELF or WAD files to the Wii (WAD files only with USB Loader GX). Once you typed in your IP and protocol, you can simply drag a file onto the EXE to transmit it. It works with the old and the new version of the Homebrew Channel.

It’s based on the sources of WiiLoad by dhewg and Crap by WiiCrazy/I.R.on.

Sand Traps is an original multiplayer puzzle/platform game for Wii homebrew.

The objective of the game is to tilt the board using your Wiimote, in order to guide the sand towards the green exit. In each level you need to save a certain percentage of the sand. If the sand ‘falls out’ of the board it is lost. If the sand touches the red stone it is also lost.

In some levels you can add new stone, and in some levels you can also remove it again so you can reuse it elsewhere.

Changes:
