One Handed Gaming

[michaeljustman]

I regularly donate plasma and am left for an hour to two hours with only one hand with which to use my GP2X. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions to what I can play for that long, one handed.

I already listen to music, watch movies, and play Chess, Checkers, Solitaire, Go, and Sudoku. Any ideas would be welcome.

BTW... DZZ, could you consider adding the ability to control Zoov with the ABXY buttons like a d-pad, so I don't have to turn my GP2X upside-down to play with my left hand. (Also, a new level would be awesome! )

Canyon Bomber for MAME. It only needs a single button and is actually really fun!

i wonder if there is another reason for your want of one handed gaming.... one handed lady killer? lol

but anyway dzz is long gone so a request to him is not gonna get noticed

Reconfigure an Atari 2600 emulator so that the red button is the left shoulder button, thus you can play Pitfall! with a thumb and a pointer finger!

You can try Rhythm Tengoku for the Gameboy Advance.

Almost all minigames are played with a single button...

And, even being played with a single button, the game is a master piece.

good on you for giving your time donating plasma.

One button? Fun game?

Superfly!


At least on the Atari ST it is called like this. Coded by Reservoir Gods.

Maybe there is a port of the original game.


I didn't checked if it works on the GP2x ST-emulator. On the GP32 it doesn't run
But the author of the games owns a GP32 aswell, maybe he figured it out in the mean time

I'm as good at defender (mame) with one hand as I am with two, if that's of any use (no?).

You can play my game Blocked with one hand. But not before GBAX is over, sorry.

Good man, we could do with more people like you. I recommend River Crossing, it's super addictive and you play with the right hand buttons.

You could try donating sperm at the same time.
