If you’re hoping to stream games from Steam to your new Apple TV, developer Kevin Smith (no, not the Clerks guy) has shown it is possible by modifying the Moonlight iOS project — which lets users stream Steam games from a desktop computer to their iOS device — so that it works with tvOS.
Check out the videos below.
For those unfamiliar with it, Moonlight is an open-source implementation of NVIDIA’s GameStream, built for iOS. Smith connected Moonlight to his PC, which was running NVidia 970 (Sli), and then streamed the game via wired ethernet.
“So I thought I have a go at getting it up and running on tvOS,” he notes. “This is a very very quick and very dirty compilation of the code to tvOS and with complete disregard of the __TVOS_UNAVAILABLE restrictions (So no AppStore version unfortunately).”
Hey, Apple did make clear the new Apple TV was designed for playing games…
