QuickJoy IME is an universal soft keyboard for Android 8/16-bit computer emulators (Atari, Amiga, C64) and for the NES emulators, inspired by awesome controls in top-tier iOS jump&run games (Soosiz, NyxQuest, etc.).

"QuickJoy IME" is designed as a one-button JOYSTICK replacement, while "QuickJoy IME for NES" is well suited for NES emulation.

They work great with most platform (jump&run) games, such as Lethal Weapon, Addams Family, Superfrog, McDonald Land on the Amiga, Montezuma's Revenge! and Pitfall! on Atari and Super Mario Bros. and Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers on NES. In fact, it works well with most genres, provided that they don't require pressing fire AND up/down simultaneously (i.e. fire+diagonals).

General setup / prerequisities:

• QuickJoyIME installs input method (soft "keyboard", that's disabled by default) and a small utility app called QuickJoyTool.
• Use QuickJoyTool to manually add QuickJoyIME to the system input method list ("Select Input Method" > "Configure input methods").
• Set QuickJoyIME as the default input method (launch QuickJoyTool and "Select Input Method").
• Use "Toggle Input Method" button to show QuickJoyIME (it'll stay on top when you go to the launcher - remember that it'll disappear when you press the BACK button).
