+1 to this!
If Android devices could work as peripherals, the number of supported devices would double!
Agreed, this would be awesome!
I completely agree also, this would be quite marvellous indeed! Anyone know any keen Android devs?
If nobody puts their hand up, my colleague and I may give it a crack eventually. We are quite keen on Android peripheral support for our game.
Seeing as this is still open and from January, does this mean no work has been done on it? I'm just following the project for now, but I was hoping to get time to implement it in my game.
I'm an Android developer by the way, so was thinking of taking this task up if noone else has started it yet. I need to get a grasp on the framework though before getting my hands dirty :-)
As far as I know, nobody is working on it, so it would be awesome if you did! I've been a bit out of the loop so there are some open issues on the project, but going to try to put some attention on it in the coming weeks.
Here is a potentially useful webpage http://jaanus.com/implementing-bonjour-across-ios-and-android/
A request has been made for an implementation of the Peripheral part of the framework on Android, which would enable the creation of VGC-compatible software-based controllers.
There are a few challenges with this, but none are insurmountable:
I do not have the Android skills to do this myself, but we're hoping a developer/s will be willing to take the task on!
