I have a question for the creator…what software did you use to create this game? I have found programs online to create Regular Video Games for PC’s but none for the Wii. It would be great if you could leave the program you used to create your wii game.

Hi all.

It seems the facts have been somewhat misrepresented here.
The original Frutfall game was indeed developed by a single programmer, however the Wii version, and other versions, have been developed by licenced professional teams under licence.

It is great that a console like the wii is allowing the small budget gaming developers to make such as these. These developers are sometimes the ones that produce the hidden jems in gaming.

It’s great these really small developers can create low budget games that are all about gameplay, and then find someone to help them publish it!

I don’t have a Wii, but i do have a PS3…

I’ve played the Flash version and i find this game pretty fun. It’s almost as good as Lumines on PSP.

Although 60 bux is a bit exagerated pricy. But its a fun game to have… the creator should publish his game on small portable console too (DS lite, PSP)

I too wonder how much money he made.

I love it! It may not be the most intuitive game, but it means theres hope for solo game creators. Its a GREAT start and a step in a very positive direct.

I dont think RyanPT understands how complex some coding can be even in Tetris or such like games. More so, its not the coding really. Its pulling the game together as a whole. If I see it on the shelf here in Canada, resonably priced I may just pick up a copy in support

Honestly, I think it’s great that this guy has made a game for the Wii without any outside funding or a dev team of any real description, but how many copies does he really expect to sell?

The game does not seem very entertaining (or original) in the slightest, and to be frank, I’m not quite sure whom his target audience actually includes.

It’s all well and good that indie developers get some attention, but shouldn’t they be producing ever-so-slightly more than a Tetris edit?

What we need is more small developments in general, now with stuff like Xbox live and the Wii being more open ended like this, smaller games get a chance, at least!

I am sure this won’t change gaming over night but it’s a sign that the little guys can still muscle in and get a say if they make good enough, addictive little games.
