Geekscape Mobile: My Favourite iOS Game Of All Time Is Headed To Apple TV!
Briefly: I’m unbelievably excited (and terrified) for this, and it’s something I’d never have expected.
After what seems like years of silence, Andreas Wulfila, developer of classic iOS gem Tiny Wings has just revealed that in just a few days time the simple, adorable, laughably simply, scarily addicting one buttoner will be hitting a new platform: tvOS on the fourth generation Apple TV.
I don’t know that I’ve ever been as addicted to another mobile title as I (along with many of my close friends) became to Tiny Wings. I can recall countless nights of groups of friends sitting around, playing their individual games, screaming with frustration when they failed, missed a goal, or messed up a run, and screaming with joy when they’d beat one another’s score. A single player game at heart, it’s one of the few titles that I ever became truly competitive with, which was pretty easy to do using iOS GamevCenter and its challenges.
The tvOS version was announced with a super cute trailer, and Andreas also revealed that the Apple TV version of the game will support split-screen multiplayer with the Siri Remote or with a combination of Siri Remote and MFi controller, and that the Tiny Wings iOS app will also let you use your iOS device as a controller.
I can’t freaking wait.
For now, take a look at the trailer below, get practicing on your iOS device, and let me know the most addicting mobile game you’ve ever played (I’m always looking for new titles)!
