Want to play with your friends but don't have a second gamepad lying around? Grab your phone and this piece of software to emulate a gamepad.
It is by no means a real replacement for an ordinary gamepad but if you need a gamepad real quick this should do it.
Not all games need all buttons and since there is not so much space on some phone screens you can choose from on of the following button sets:
| Name | Left Stick | A | B | X | Y | LB | RB | RS | LT | RT |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Unrailed | X | X | X | |||||||
| Escapist | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X | X |
I will add more mappings as I try out more games.
