Here’s good news for Wiibrew devs out there. Introducing Box2D for the Wii! Box2D is an engine primarily designed for emulating 2D physics. I was recently also used in the creation of WiiPhysics, a new physics playground program from Beardface. This download also comes with a sample program. More details about Box2D in the full article.

Nintendo DS homebrew coder 0xtob is lending his talents to the Wii homebrew community! 0xtob, the author of Pocket Physics for the Nintendo DS, has ported the game’s 2D engine to the Wii.

Box2D is a 2D physics library, which was also just recently used in WiiPhysics, a physics playground program. 0xtob has also included a sample program using Box2D along with the download.

Like WiiPhysics, the sample program was created using libwiisprite. For devs, you can download the latest libwiisprite library by following this link. In the sample program, you can create balls and adjust gravity as you see fit. You are gravity god.

Now, be sure to read to the documentation included in the archive. Enjoy the download:
