Playing with a Partner (Playmate)

How to use the Playmate accessory with games to relay haptic and tilt data to up to 6 connected devices.

Playing with a Partner (Playmate)

The Playmate accessory adds a new dimension to Fluffer games: haptic relay and tilt-based control that affects up to 6 devices simultaneously. This is the primary way to share game-driven intensity with a partner.

What the Playmate adds to games

Without Playmate, the game signals drive your primary connected device.

With Playmate connected:

  • Haptic relay — the game controller's rumble output (from USB-C game controller) is forwarded to all connected devices in real time

  • Tilt input — in games that support tilt, tilting the Playmate drives device intensity for all connected devices

  • Multi-device — up to 6 Motorbunny or Fluffer devices connect simultaneously and all receive the same signals

Setting up for multi-device play

  1. Connect all devices (up to 6) via the Devices tab — scan and connect each one

  2. Connect the Playmate and pair it in the Devices tab

  3. Connect your game controller to the Playmate's USB-C dongle

  4. Open a game from the Home tab and tap Play

  5. All connected devices respond to game signals simultaneously

Remote partner play

Remote Sharing (Controller tab) is the way to let a partner who is not physically present control a device. Games themselves are local — the Playmate setup is for in-person or same-session use where you are controlling multiple devices from one game session.

Not all games support Playmate tilt input. Check the game detail page for Playmate compatibility tags.
