Today Nintendo released a demo of the Wii browser, and just as expected it supports flash. I just tried it and none of my games work in it, i suspect it only supports Flash 7, and my games are version 8. Most of them however should be fairly easy to port, but with Christmas and everything coming up this weekend it might take a bit longer (though I’d very much like to get it working this instant).
I happened upon this blog post earlier today, and if the Wii runs flash like that I will be a very happy man. The future is exciting!
By the way I have another little game in the pipeline, and I think I just might make it “native” for the Wii, but more on that once I get a chance to explore this a bit more.
Merry Christmas to you all!

It’s finally done. Play it here:

I decided on the name for my game today. Eater of worlds.
The release is drawing near, though I don’t dare to set an actual date just yet. I have a presentation for it in 47 hours (omg!), but I doubt it’ll hit the internets before that.
I have finished the first level, and only some level design is missing from the second one. The third level is still MIA.
I’d absolutely love to make a level editor for this game and let everyone add their own stuff to their own music. That would be awesome, but that’s another two weeks of development, at least. So no go for that.
In other news:
This whole Web 2.0 (and/or mod community) thing with user generated content is so exciting, I think my next project will be something that involves the players a bit more. I mean, procedural content is cool and all, but if you get actual people doing content that has to be better.
Lost garden has an article on this.
The wiimote for PC is making real progress, read more on Wii Hacks, watch the cool video on YouTube and wait for WiiLi to get back up.
And also, the wii-browser will support Flash. YES! I read it on a feed from opera.com somewhere, but I can’t find it right now.
Let’s just hope it’s proper flash and not Flash 5 or something.
And while I’m at it, Kloonigames has a new game up. Go check it out.
