It depends, you can decide to use the browser (you won't spend money but you will need an internet connection everytime you want to use homebrew) or you can decide to use haxchi (you will spend money but you will be able to launch homebrew without an internet connection)
This is a great place to start: http://gbatemp.net/threads/guide-noob-guide-to-wii-u-hacking.451297/

Just remember that you have to BUY Brain Age from the EShop, not just download it for free from some app. If you use a pirated copy, you're on your way to brickland. Pay attention.

You can only use whatever it allows you to download legally from the eshop. Most likely the eshop on your Wii U will only show pal versions

If you don't use a legally purchased DS game (such as downloaded with WiiU USB Helper and installed with WUPInstaller) for haxchi it won't work without CFW, and don't even try to install coldboot haxchi on there if you didn't buy the game or your Wii U will brick!

    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:

    @Xdqwerty you can use a "spawner" function on any object.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Or when your player dies, you can say in code, if enemy exists, do nothing, but if enemy does not exist, then create enemy at certain spot. (This would be a pain tho for lots of emeies)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Easiest, simple way would be just restart scene, but player would restart from beginning.
