Croosy Road Apple TV 4 Multiplayer Not Working

Hi All. I recently purchased an Apple TV 4. I downloaded "Crossy Road" for it, thinking I could play it with my friends. When I tried to connect, I didn't get a very detailed description. 1. Download Crossy Road on devices. Ok, I just downloaded it on my apple tv, and already had it on my iPhone 6S. I updated to the latest version of iOS (9.1), and the halloween update of Crossy Road. 2. Connect both devices to Wi-Fi. Already done. 3. Play with your friends!! Umm.. How?!? I eventually found out that you unlocked the 2 player option on Apple TV, and found the little "game controller" icon on my iPhone. I was the greeted with and endless cycle of this screen:

And it never stopped, after searching for 15 minutes.

Does anyone have a fix for this?? Anyone?

Anything Helps, Geotrax.
