Liights Out! is a puzzle game for the Wii, based on the classic puzzle game Lights Out.
The goal is to turn off all the lights on the board. When you toggle one light, the lights nearby also toggle.
Liights Out! is written in C++ and uses:
- libogc for Wii hardware support
- libwiisprite for high-level graphics rendering
If you come up with some cool changes/features and you'd like to see them merged, feel free to send me a merge request.
In order to compile this software, you must have
- DevkitPPC
- libogc
- libwiisprite
properly installed. See their respective sites and documentation for help.
To compile, simply run the 'make' command in this directory.
Further information about Wii homebrew development is available at http://wiibrew.org.
To run this software after compilation:
- Copy the contents of this directory into /apps/liightsout/ on
your SD card.
- Note that this location is hard-coded into the program, so you MUST use this exact location. Sorry.
- Launch the game, "Liights Out!", using the Homebrew Channel.
(The 'source' and 'build' directories do not need to be copied to the SD card.)
You should have a directory hierarchy on your SD card similar to this:
/apps/
/apps/liightsout/
/apps/liightsout/data/
/apps/liightsout/gfx/
/apps/liightsout/source/
