Joystick

What Joystick is

Joystick is a remote configuration platform for app and game teams that need to change settings or content without shipping an app update. It accepts configuration in formats such as JSON, XML, and YAML, and supports feature flags, phased rollouts, player targeting, localization, content management, game live operations, and generative AI prompt management. Teams can run A/B tests, segment users, and deliver variants to selected groups. Controls include multiple environments, staged deployments, scheduled changes, protected environments, and review policies. The platform also lists revision history, an audit log, permissions, access control, JSON Schema validation, and configuration protection. Integrations include Google Sheets, webhooks, a REST API, and SDKs for JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, PHP, C#, Java, Unity, Unreal, and Godot; game-engine support also includes Cocos. Cloud is hosted and managed, with edge delivery and caching. Enterprise is single-tenant, with custom sizing and pricing. Joystick offers a free sandbox with access to the full platform and says users can try it until satisfied, without stating a trial duration. Cloud costs nothing to start, with usage-based charges and no per-seat fees.
