OpenJazz Wii is a version of the classic platformer "Jazz Jackrabbit" that has been ported to the Wii using the SDL Wii library.
Gameplay
"Jazz Jackrabbit" is a classic platformer game developed by Epic MegaGames. It features six episodes, each consisting of three worlds, with two levels and a boss level.
In the game, Jazz has a life bar that decreases when enemies hit or shoot him. He can replenish his health by collecting carrots scattered throughout the levels. If his health reaches zero, Jazz will turn to ash and the level will restart from the last checkpoint.
To defeat enemies, Jazz must shoot them with the blue gun he always carries. The game features various types of bullets that deal different amounts of damage. Instead of jumping on enemies, Jazz must use his weapon to defeat them.
Installation
To install, simply move the "apps" directory from the downloaded file to the root of your SD-card. Then, transfer your Jazz Jackrabbit datafiles to the "/apps/OpenJazz" folder. If you don't have the datafiles, a shareware version of the first episode can be downloaded for free here.
