Bugiin is a game inspired by Gnat Attack(also known as Coffee Break), which was featured in Mario Paint for SNES. It has been created for the Wii and includes new sound effects and game modes.
Installation
Merge the contents of the zip file to the root of your SD card. Please note that when extracting the contents of the file are as follows:
/apps/bugiin/[bugiin files]
If copying from version 1.2 or later, the bugiin.cfg is not necessary as it will replace your high scores and settings should you replace your older file with it.
After copying the files, insert your SD card and boot your Wii to the Homebrew Channel and you should be good to go.
User guide
There are two main game modes, the Classic mode, which is level based much like the original. There is also a Swarm mode which features endless enemies.
The game can also be played with multiple Wiimotes. Lives are shared between players, and an extra life is awarded for completing a level without enemies self-destructing.
Classic Mode
Classic mode consists of 5 levels of increasing difficulty that you must survive. To play simply use the Wiimote to swat each of the bugs. Press the A or B button to swat.
To play with more than one Wiimote, simply press the Home button on an additional controller you wish to connect. Lives are shared between players, so when you initially join or when you die, a life is taken from the pool. If the pool of lives has only 1 life left, you will not be able to join or continue.
If all of the enemies are swatted (before they self destruct) then an extra life will be given. Once all the levels are completed, the levels will loop over, but your life count will remain the same. The level counter will also continue to increase, so go for the high score!
Swarm Mode
In this mode, one player will try to survive as long as possible against increasingly large swarms of bugs.
An extra life is given every level, and after level 15 multiple lives are given. That doesn't mean that things get any easier, though.
Tips
- Try using two Wiimotes at once in Classic Mode to take out bugs twice as fast.
- If the gnat spraying bugs are close to the bottom of the screen, they aren't an immediate threat, and can be left alone if other bugs need to be taken out.
- Once you have missed one bug in the level, you will not be able to get the extra life bonus at the end. Don't hesitate to start dodging lesser threats, like the bomb bugs.
