I've used a similar tool to this to play Risk of Rain 2 as a local co-op. Both clients had their own displays, sound and controls (TV+controller and PC) and it worked flawlessly. We were both getting >100FPS @4k and 1080p using a 5700x3D and a 3080.
It's a nice way to play older multiplayer games that don't support split-screen.
That sounds rad, what’s the tool?
I don't recall the name, but it was a Windows-only tool.
