Get game onto a gamestick?

So really simple: after I do ‘Build for Android’ and select ‘Target AppStore: GameStick’ and so on I then get this .apk file which I have no clue of what to do with.

According to this guide I can apparently not just push the file onto a flash drive and plug it into the gamestick, I gotta do some complex installation shitties, and how do I do that?!

EDIT: And when I say flash drive I mean SD card of course

With GameStick, you can’t use the “adb” command line tool because you can’t connect your PC to it via USB.  Instead, you simply copy your APK to the Micro SD card and insert it into the GameStick.  You then your app from GameStick’s menus.  Now, sometimes I find that GameStick doesn’t always “discover” the apps on the MicroSD card and I have to restart.  At least with the prototype version that we’re using.  But other than that, it’s really quite simple.

Found this guide

And it’s bloody awesome, got a test program running on the gamestick within 15 minutes
