Some of you might be old enough to remember the nice open source 3D game BillardGL from the early thousands (from 2002, precisely). It's written in C++ using OpenGL 1.1, which as we all know, is not supported by the Wii. Well, at least until a wise guy wrote opengx, a library that wraps the GX API presenting it as the OpenGL API. The project was abandoned back in 2009, but the author was so kind to write detailed documentation on the design of this project, that it would have been a waste not to put it into use.
So, recently the opengx project has been revived and functionality has been added to make it support more of OpenGL 1.1. We are still far from the finish line, but it's nice to see that a non trivial game like BillardGL could be ported with almost no changes to the code.
You are welcome to visit the project at https://github.com/mardy/billardgl/tree/wii-port - see the "Releases" section for a downloadable zip file to add the game to your Homebrew channel.
Please note that not all changes required to builg the game have been integrated into opengx yet, so if you want to build the game from source, you'll need this branch.
