It’s not hard to make a WarioWare DIY game. All one needs is a stylus and a quirky sense of humor. Yes, some artistic talent helps but it’s not required. The process is as simple as the microgames themselves, which last five to 10 seconds. Think of it as a more casual form of LittleBigPlanet. To show off what the system can do, Nintendo’s Jonathan Yeckley created a rocket game in about 10 minutes. In the proposed microgame, the player would have to tap a rocket with a stylus to launch it skyward. The process is done in three steps.


GRAPHICS: This works a lot like Flipnote Studios. Players can draw a background. In this instance, Yeckley divided the screen with the pen tool and hit blue to fill in the sky and green to color in the earth. Next, he drew a rudimentary rocket for the first frame with the same pen tool. He copied it over to create another frame but this time he nudged it slightly to the right. This slight movement was enough to animate the rocket so that it looked as though it rumbled, shaking back and forth before liftoff.

Those who aren’t artistic can use stock assets that come with the game. This includes old Nintendo 8-bit art as well as other surprises.

MUSIC: Yeckley called this the spiritual successor to the old Mario Paint game on the Super Nintendo. Players can create their own MIDI songs using a number of different instruments. The actual notes are plugged in via a virtual keyboard on the left of the screen. Players can use a plethora of instruments across 48 measures. Depending on how long they want to drag the measure out, fans can get a good amount of music in. And again if players don’t want to put in the effort into making music, WarioWare DIY can randomly generate a tune based on the mood the player wants to capture. It can be sad, happy, angry, etc., and the game does a pretty good job of giving them want what they want.

AI: This is probably the most complex part of the whole system. Programmingn via WarioWare DIY’s involves trigger and actions. Players have to choose a trigger. In the case of the rocket game, it’s a mere tap on the rocket ship. As for the action, it’s as simple as traveling. In this case, we wanted the rocket ship to fly upward. Yeckley chose the appropriate trigger. We fiddled with the rocket ship pointing to the direction where it would go and we even added a sound effect.

Overall, players will be able to manipulate up to 16 objects on the screen and each object can have five AI slots, meaning five triggers and five corresponding action. This is the tutorial-heavy portion of the game and WarioWare DIY offers players a place to learn via the Assembly Dojo, which contains collection of AI lessons.

Once we made the game, that’s where the fun starts. We created its packaging. (It reminded me of little Game Boy cartridges back in the day.) And we sent it off to the distribution center, which also contains a number of premade microgames from the Nintendo staff.

In WarioWare DIY, players can create their games and share them with others. Fans can do this in two ways. One person can be nearby and the other can connect wirelessly to trade and share. Or they can upload them to the Internet, where Nintendo will judge each one for appropriateness (I’m assuming all games featuring certain body parts would be banned.) and the staff will pass it along to the DIY shop. If that weren’t enough, players can even play their creations on the big screen using a separate but complimentary game called WarioWare DIY Showcase. This version of the title isn’t as robust as the Nintendo DS one. You can’t create music or your own game. But it is another place where players can download other people’s games or their own and play them. It also has the added benefit of a multiplayer mode.

WarioWare DIY comes out March 28 and will be priced at $34.99.
