This is hopefully the first of many daily (if possible) script lists of either updated scripts that have been mentioned int he past or new scripts that are noteworthy. I know I haven’t even released my guide on how to interface your wiimote with your computer yet, but it is almost done, and the people who already know how to will apreciate these lists.

Laser Tag - this Glovepie script lets you play “laser tag” with a friend using wiimotes as your “guns”.

You need:

A bluetooth enabled XP computer
Glovepie (as you will for all of the scripts)
2 wiimotes
a wearable sensor (make one out of batteries and IR leds… to help diffuse the IR so you can’t hide from the other person as much, cut off the tops of the leds or put some wet toilet paper over the tip of the IR led)

Ballance Script
Ballance is a level-based puzzle game. The player has to move a ball through a hovering maze of paths and rails. When moving, the player will face many mechanical obstacles like seesaws, suspension bridges, pendulums etc. to overcome. It is the aim of the game to reach to the end of each level without dropping the ball.
Ballance takes its special appeal from the physically realistic simulation of its elements. A good feeling of the ball’s inertia and an understanding of simple mechanical processes will enable the player to succeed.

The special feature of the ball is that the player can change its material, and thus its physical properties. The material can be changed from wood to stone or paper. For changing the material of the ball, the player has to steer the ball onto one of the transforming fields (transformers) that can be found at various places in the levels.
Ballance is played against the time. The faster a player gets through a level the more scores will be granted. Picking up various Extra Scores may provide the player with additional “time scores” or even an “extra life”.

Ballance is a combination of a puzzle and a game of skill. While the skill component is omnipresent - everything finally depends on steering the ball - the element of intelligence reveals itself in the form of “physical puzzles”. These puzzles count on an intuitive grasping of the level architecture and the principles of simple mechanics. They often refer to the physical transformation of the ball.
When exploring the world of this game and its rules, the view into endless depths gives the player a continuous thrill.

My Windows Picture Viewer script

This script is an easy interface for using the built in Windows Picture Viewer as a slideshow tool, freeing you from your computer, but still providing you with all the control you need, no sensor bar needed!

Xmoto Script

X-Moto is a challenging 2D motocross platform game, where physics play an all important role in the gameplay. You need to control your bike to its limit, if you want to have a chance finishing the more difficult of the challenges.
