Today, 15th of December, we are releasing Paint Splash, multiplayer painting program for kids on WiiWare in Europe and Australia. The program is also available in North America since 8th of Septemeber.

It all began back in 2009 when Uffe Flarup, a computer programmer and father of three kids, made an unofficial Wii painting program for his own kids. He made it freely available on his website, and it was downloaded by other Wii-fans more than 50,000 times. The painting program was received well by the homebrew Wii community for its collaborative nature, up to four players can paint simultaneous on the same painting, and the special ‘baby mode’ that was included for the youngest members of the family.

Seeing the success of the program, Uffe Flarup, teamed up with the small indie games studio, KnapNok Games, to officially bring the game to the console. The visual style is spiced up and new soundtrack has been developed, this unique Wii painting experience is now available for everyone to try out on WiiWare.
