Octopus is a key map application that will support you to play games on smartphones with intuitive controls. I bet this app will make your mobile-game experience become as great as on PC.

Introduce about Octopus

The most intuitive game key map application on mobile!

Mobile games are now becoming more and more convenient, diverse and attractive. However, one of the huge inconveniences when playing mobile games is the buttons. Direct control on the screen is sometimes tiny, which makes you always feel cramped.

Technology and cross-field developments have made it possible to play console mobile games with gamepads, keyboards and mice. Mobile game experience is now much more liberal, free and comfortable.

One problem with these controls is that they are often not remapped to match the mobile game environment. Not to mention, not all games are compatible to play on phones with gamepads and not all controllers can fully support all operations when playing games.

There must be a way remaping the keys so that they can fit the needs of each game. The two most common ways to do that are Root or using a PC with permissions. However, Root has a risk that the phone has software damage. Besides, via PC, sometimes the place where you are playing is not available. Then the only way left, which is the best of both worlds, is through a dedicated software.

Octopus is an application that can help you do this quickly and neatly on mobile.

What is Octopus?

Octopus is a key map application for gamepads, keyboards and mice shared with mobile phones. This makes the control process and gaming experience easier, more vivid and more hands-on than ever before.

Octopus helps map keys for gamepads without Root, based on the principle of mapping peripherals to touch screens. This application is compatible with most current gamepads, including the latest generation.

The effect of the movie map is extremely fast, not inferior to the map via PC. In addition, this app also helps you mod both keyboard and mouse to play with some FPS games on your phone. To be brief about Octopus: map everything for gamepads, keyboards and mice to all types of mobile games.

What peripherals is Octopus compatible with?

Octopus is compatible with almost all generations and types of gamepads for today’s mobile gaming. Besides, the Octopus Gaming Engine has good support for most applications and games. When you want to, just press the + sign to add the game you want to map the key to (up to 30 games at the same time). This app is also compatible with all types of keyboards and mice of brands such as Corsair, Razer, Logitech, SteelSeries… and even Xbox, PS, IPEGA game consoles…

Octopus is also good in many separate modes for different types of games such as Advanced Shooting mode for FPS games, Smart Casting mode for MOBA games. Depending on the game you want to map the key to, choose the corresponding mode for more specialized support.

In the app corresponding to each game mode, there are also some suggested key layouts available. But if you want, you can completely “reset” to your liking with detailed feature items in the Settings section of the application.

Manipulating the map key on Octopus

You can perform the map key operation on Octopus quite easily, just go through a few basic steps:

First, you need a smartphone with Android 4.4 or higher. Then download Octopus from Google Play. Extract and run the file OctActiveTool.exe.

Next, use the USB cable to connect the mobile to the computer. Go to Start, select the device model, enable USB Debugging for the model you are using, click Next and Actives, Accept USB Debugging, and Successfully Activated.

After completing the above steps, you will need to connect your mobile to the gamepad in Android Mode. If the game name appears in Octopus, it is considered complete.

When Octopus has started opening the game, you look on the left side of the screen, click on the fuzzy octopus icon, and start the key mapping process. Here are some basic maps:

Key: Buttons on the handle -> press this button, the app will automatically set according to that key.

D+pad: The key to move up and down, left and right.

Joystick: A gamepad gyroscope, normally placed in a movable position.

Note: If you want to use the Key combination, press the button you want + Joystick (eg B + Joy). This is usually a set of navigation keys.

Modding keys for keyboard and mouse is the same thing as above.
