Flinger Painting

How to Play

Point the Wii Remote at the area you want to hit with your paint.
Press A to shoot. Hold A to charge up a large paint shot. Release A after charging to fire.

Few things are more enjoyable than making a big, colorful mess. In Flinger Painting, that’s exactly your goal!

Hurl huge gobs of colored paint at a wide canvas, hoping to cover more area with your color than your rivals. Pile on that paint to perfect your masterpiece!

Tapping A will hurl a good-sized gob of goo onto the board, but you can’t beat holding A to charge up a really big blast.

Watch as your targeting cursor expands, then release A to unload a massive gob! Try to get the timing down so that you’re spraying the board with plenty of paint as often as possible.

Note

Don’t rely on the sound your Wii Remote makes as you hold A to charge up a shot.

The sound keeps playing even after you’ve reached maximum splattering size, so pay attention to your cursor instead!

Most players will mistakenly attempt to cover the middle of the canvas early on. That’s the work of amateurs!

The center is an easy target, so shoot big gobs at the board’s edges and corners instead, filling in those blank areas as you spread your color more evenly across the canvas. What an eye you have!

When the final seconds begin to tick down, the time comes to touch up your rivals’ work. Charge up a big blast and try to be the last one to land a huge gob of paint on the board.

Aim to cover up whichever of your rivals’ colors is most prevalent to snatch away the victory. Priceless!
