Mario Kart Tour shuts down Sept 29.
play it on your TV with a friend before it's gone. two phones, split screen, no console.
how to set it up: gcast.app/blog/mario-kart-to…
everyone says wired is faster than wireless.
we tested it. side by side. same phone, same TV, same game.
GCast runs at 16ms over WiFi. a blink takes 100ms. the difference is smaller than your eyes can catch.

You know our favorite word?
"NO."
NO setup, NO hassle, NO delay.
We are true to our 16ms claim.

football just landed on TV two different ways at the same time, so we tested both. Netflix turns your phone into a controller while the TV runs the game.
EA FC Mobile + GCast does the opposite, your phone runs the real game (free, your real career, your real squad) and casts straight to the TV. plus you can split screen with a friend using Party Cast.

911 daily active users on @gcast_app.
90 days ago we had ~125.
That's 672% growth, iOS and Android combined. Still early, but this chart makes me so happy!
Can we get a "Congratulations" because we made a HUGE update!
Your games are now inside GCast!
Start casting it on the bigger screen!

My first startup I tried to do everything at once. Every competitor move felt like an emergency, every investor email got a same-day reply, every angry user message turned into a roadmap rewrite.
Second time around I learned the cheat code: most urgency is someone else's priority, not yours.
Building @gcast_app I ignore 80% of what used to keep me up at night. Turns out almost none of it mattered.
everyone who sees this asks the same thing
"wait — GCast is free?"
yes. completely free.

you know what kills a mobile game party? nobody can see what anyone's doing.
all four of you staring at your own phones, same game, different universes. no reactions, no hype, no "wait let me try that."
@gcast_app puts it all on one screen. same couch. same game. now everyone actually plays together.
console gamers pay hundreds for this
your phone already has it
for free

you can play Roblox on your TV!
YES! you heard it right!

that's what we call couch multiplayer!
you're with friends and everyone's staring at their own phone, playing their own game. nobody sees what you're doing, nobody reacts, there's zero shared experience. mobile gaming killed the living room!
we built @gcast_app to bring it back. cast any game to your TV, phone becomes the controller 🎮

people ask me why I'd start over from scratch when I already went through the whole thing once with Jam.gg.
honestly? because I'm addicted to this part. the early days. tiny team, hard problems, building something from nothing. you'd think doing it once would get it out of your system. it does the opposite.
the second time you just see clearer. you skip the panic, you skip the noise. you know exactly what matters and what doesn't. and that clarity makes it even more fun!
building @gcast_app feels like a cheat code. same chaos, way less confusion.

your phone has a better processor than the console under your TV. and yet you're using it to scroll twitter in bed.
the best games ever made are in your pocket. the biggest screen in your house is 3 feet away. and they're still not talking to each other.
@gcast_app fixes that. your phone becomes the controller, your TV becomes the display. finally.
