Ive tried searching to see if there was such a thing before posting...

But simply my question is, is there some sort of app that can temporarily map keyboard presses (or maybe even gamepad buttons) to specific coordinates on the touch screen...kind of a way to emulate a soft key press?

Reason i ask is cause many phones do have a slide out keyboard, but many games do not have the option to make use of them. Ive never been a fan of touch screen buttons, especially when playing a game.

If not such app exists, how hard would it be to create an app to do this or something similar?
