[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] mattnmag:
Hi All,

The game "Traps n' Gemstones" (by Donut Games) was released recently and I've enjoyed playing it over the last month. It gets good reviews from gaming sites and I thought that some of you might want to try it out.

Since it's not Xperia Play optimized, I mapped out a Gamekeyboard profile and wanted to share it with everyone. Scroll down to find the gkp download links and setup instructions for the newer Gamekeyboard+ v. 6.0.0, and the older Gamekeyboard v. 4.0.1. (Thanks to Sean for letting me use his Xperia Play to test out the older Gamekeyboard v4.0.1).

The game is currently $4.99 USD on the Play Store and it can be found here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.donutgames.trapsngemstones&hl=en

Here's a link to a YouTube video that shows quite a bit of gameplay and will give you a feel for the game before deciding if you want to buy it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G96OBluGSEU

Happy Treasure Hunting!! :)

Setup Instructions and gkp download for GameKeyboard+ v. 6.0.0 (for Traps n' Gemstones)

--If you don't own Gamekeyboard +, you can get it from Google Play at this link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.locnet.gamekeyboard2&hl=en

3. Set the “Input Device” to "Onscreen Gamepad"

4. Set the “Usage Mode” to "Emulate Touchscreen" (this will probably prompt you to grant Superuser permissions if this is the first time using this app).

6. Download the “TrapsnGemstonesv6” gkp from this Dropbox link to your SD card: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/oqcbvrd03vyx0wl/AAD9xGqs71rRGLyYshpJNttya?dl=0 - - (The md5 checksum should be: fe23df525cb9ee249602de5b2255f4a2 ).

7. Now go down to "Import Profile" to import the Gamekeyboard profile named “TrapsnGemstonesv6.gkp.” Then go to "Save Profile" to save it (*Tip- if the gamekeyboard controls pop up when you try to save the profile... just hit the back button to get them out of the way). Now finally go to "Load Profile" to load it. (you should be able to just load it in the future after you do these steps the first time).

8. Finally scroll down and enable “Use Advance Input.” (You can also disabule "Use Hot Key" if you don't want the Gamekeyboard controls to pop up when you use Volume Up).

(Leave all the other settings at their defaults, as they should have been set when you used the Quick Setup earlier)
