๐ฌ Here's how you can create a main Unity instance, like your game, and then make a second Unity app to control the first one.
This is what I used to make my livestream overlay where I have the characters on the main screen and a control panel on the second screen.
This is made using C# Named Pipes, NamedPipeServerStream and NamedPipeClientStream. Another approach you could use would be a TCP tunnel.
This is a pretty niche topic but it took me quite a while to get everything working right so I'm hoping this video helps someone who is searching for this topic just like I was.
Thanks!
