Google’s multiplayer Super Sync Sports uses mobile devices to control a fun desktop browser game

Google’s Chrome Experiments are always fun ways to show off Web technologies and the latest, Super Sync Sports, is no exception.
In this desktop browser-based game, you take on friends in multiplayer running, cycling or swimming events using Chrome on an Android or iOS device to control your character in the browser.
Super Sync Sports uses a range of HTML5 technologies but it’s particularly designed to show off the cross-device synchronization capabilities of WebSockets. While the control isn’t quite perfect (I found myself accidentally swiping to another Chrome for Mobile tab a couple of times), it’s a fun mid-week diversion for sure.
