Hi everyone! I’m Prime, a third-year computer science student and lifelong gamer. This summer, I’ll be working with ScummVM as part of Google Summer of Code 2025.
My project, “Add Keymapper to More Games,” focuses on integrating ScummVM’s keymapper system into more of its supported game engines. This will allow players to customize controls across a wide range of classic games — making gameplay smoother and more accessible on different input devices like keyboards and gamepads.
Over the summer, I plan to add keymapper support to over 20 engines. For each engine, I’ll analyze its input system, replace hardcoded key handling with keymapper logic, and thoroughly test the changes to ensure everything works as expected.
A huge thank you to my mentors, the ScummVM community, and the GSoC organizers. I’m looking forward to contributing to the preservation and improvement of these classic games!
