Android users know that there are a number of apps which allows you to use your Android device to act as a controller and vice versa. Heck, you can even your Android device to control another Android device. Orthogonal Labs, Inc. is looking to join in on controller fray with WanderPlayer.
Using your Android powered device, WanderPlayer can act as a controller for most flash based games on the net. Those who covet retro gaming will appreciate WanderPlayer’s takes cues from NES controller in a form of over sized retro controller. WanderPlayer works with a number of Flash based games like the ever popular Robot Unicorn as you can see below.
We’ve had some hands on with the app and came away slightly impressed. WonderPlayer works as advertised albeit with some minor delay, though it wont hinder your gaming in any way. Set up was quick and easy, using the same WiFi network for PC and device, the two easily paired and within minutes I was already searching for a game. Facebook connectivity is also available for you to repeatedly remind your friends that you’re slacking at work.
So for those looking to kickback and unwind from the comfort of the couch will undoubtedly take advantage of this app.
