Tilt the floor to roll a ball through an obstacle course within the given time. If the ball falls or time expires, a ball is lost.
Collect coins to unlock the exit and earn extra balls. Red coins are worth 5. Blue coins are worth 10. A ball is awarded for 100 coins.
Note: This is a work in progress port of Neverball to the Nintendo Wii. The game is currently very glitchy and suffers from an abysmal framerate, but I'm working on improving it.
Installing
To run, create an /apps/neverball folder on an SD card and copy boot.dol, dist/wii-hbc/meta.xml, dist/wii-hbc/icon.png, and the data/ directory to the /apps/neverball folder on the SD card. It can be launched from the Homebrew Channel on a homebrew-enabled Wii.
