Homebrew coders steaky1212 and silus has released Liqwiid Wars, a clone of Liquid wars for the Nintendo Wii. The homebrew game feature 2 maps with random map generator, support for up to 4 players, gradient calculated and more.
Developer’s note:
This will be the final release for a while now. I’ve not got my head around the graphics libraries and which one is best suited for my needs. Because of this the health color, and map loading will be difficult. To offset this I have done the following; players can choose the army color, and Map3 is a random map generator. Bugs are fixed.
