Build an SDK that helps developers integrate game controls into any device. This allows apps to become universal game controllers for TVs, consoles, and more.

Why now

With Netflix entering the gaming space, there's a growing demand for universal game control solutions.

Who for
Game developers and studios
Business model
SDK licensing fees
Effort
A few weeks

Gaming apps often require custom controllers, but developers lack tools to make their apps act as controllers across devices. Build an SDK that lets apps emulate game controllers for TVs, consoles, and PCs. Game studios and app developers would pay to integrate this into their products. Start with basic button mapping and joystick emulation. The biggest risk is platform-specific APIs limiting compatibility.
