Ok so I happened to stumble across this on Reddit and saw that the developer had commented on a post and mentioned that they made this app. I decided to try it out. HOLY **** was I completely blown away by the capabilities. I shot my projector on the wall and started mapping objects like the window and some picture frames and even my door which is 90° from the main wall in the throw. Before I knew it I had three different videos from my camera roll playing on the door and pictures. I mapped the window to take advantage of the incredibly versatile “ball drop” feature. I caught myself smiling for wayyy too long as I sat back, watched my surfaces play videos like a Harry Potter movie, and followed the bouncing balls ricochet around between the window, pictures, and door. I seriously think the only limitation of this app is user imagination. Additionally I noticed notifications are muted on my iPhone while using the app (only because I had like 5 that I had missed while I was consumed by my new favorite toy.) Make sure you have a video camera or another recording device on standby because the knee jerk reaction is to pull out your phone and document your masterpiece… until you realize it’s connected to the projector hahahaha

OMG!!!! thank You Sooooooo Much!!!!!! Literally thank You Sooo much!!!!!!!!!! I have no words and i am just speechless! Just wait for the new features i have added autonomous Birds and ever a car/bike game. And also i wanted to tell you that you can record your entire scene and render the scene as well if you have like heavy Video files loaded. And you can then simply just put that video in a USB and play directly into the projector. If you have any questions on how to do that please msg me on the available whatsapp or instagram.
