Remapping Controls
The action performed by some buttons can be remapped by pressing when in the Command Menu. This allows controls to be customised to suit your playing style. For example, if you're want to play the game as a Necromancer, you'll likely want to map a button to the Command command, which allows you to give orders to creatures under your control.
Mapping changes will persist across games.
Using the Classic Controller will give you two more buttons, and , to map useful commands to.
Building
POWDER itself is not open source, but source is available from its Download page under a license which allows for porting.
A diff file containing Wii porting changes, to be applied to powder111_src.tar.gz, will be made available from this page.
Support Files
On Windows, I used Cygwin (with the make and g++ packages installed) to build the support files - this should be as simple as changing to the port/linux/ directory and invoking make premake. Note that the Wii build currently requires that you add distorted to the list of tilesets in gfx/rebuild.sh before building the support files.
Wii Build
Ensure you have SDL Wii and its dependencies available in your libogc directory as per its install instructions.
Change to the port/wii/ directory and invoke make.
