Hi guys, In the presentation from Apple they showed the Crossy road game and the developers were playing through their iPhones. How did they do that? We have a great app in mind but it depends on that connectivity. I couldn't find any documentation or examples to connect both the iPhone and apple tv.
Use iPhone app as control for tvOs app
Yes, an iphone can be used as a controller w/ATV.
Most likely BT in that example, I think. See: Incorporating Controllers into Your Game
I am using the standard socket library to send upd packets 60 times per second over wifi in my racing game.
I've developed a framework that wraps Game Controller in a way that makes it easy to create an iOS-based game controller that appears as a MFi hardware-based controller: https://github.com/robreuss/VirtualGameController
