    How can I make an app that would perform the role of the joystick to my Samsung TV game?

    We currently have a small beta group that is testing tools for this scenario. There will be more info in the coming weeks.

    At the moment, just try it.
    But Smart TV has all sorts of fun things like: bluetooth, allshare
    Maybe it is possible to use them instead of WiFi client server connection?

    Hi All,
    We are preparing the Unity for Multi-screen Game over Samsung's devices.
    We would like to provide convenient environment for Unity developers to develop Multi-screen Game.
    The platform will provide device discovery, server discovery, application discovery, game matching, automated game launch, guided game installation and so on.
    The platform will also support virtual joystick as a basic feature. With this feature the developers can convert their existing game contents to Multi-screen Game easily.
    The closed beta will be started in October.

    If you have interest in this platform, please email below address for invitation:
    - mscreen.game@samsung.com
