    a similar problem as joy2key, but in the opposite direction, it's a 1-way street software and a 1-trick pony, it only allows xbox controller output, it does not work for keyboards and does not allow games with features outside xinput like racing wheels, flight simulators, and other games that needs more than 12 buttons
