Instruction:
Skip the Cardboard setting when running the game for the first time.
To play the game, simply run the apps on both iPhone and Apple Watch.

And, you can scroll your digital crown to change weapons or for a closer sight!

Hi, Sachin. For now, I can only tell you that the parent app is developed with Unity and the watch app is developed with Xcode in Objective-C. So all I do is making it possible for them to communicate with each other. 😀
Hey, your VR app Watch And Shoot looks great but I will never own an Apple watch so I was wondering if you could add an option to have a VR code as the trigger instead. The only app I know of to do this is GermBuster by Realiteer where you make your own “RealTrigger”but im guessing they own the patent for that. Anyway just an idea..
Thanks 😊
