I would encourage you to consider very carefully the standard keyboard layouts provided by the OS before embarking on a custom one.

It's not only a lot of work to make a keyboard, but the common ones are very good, with Swype-like behavior, word prediction, and other things that can be cost-prohibitive for a solo dev to implement.

Users are *very* accustomed to standard input controls. Deviating from those may be useful in unusual designs, but given the high value of consistency for common tasks like text entry you'll want to weigh the pros and cons carefully before deciding your use-case is too far outside of those supported by the OS.
