Oh god I know too much about this. Long comment. Sadlol.
What kind of cast? Above or below the elbow?
I had above the elbow for 9 weeks once and below 3 times for 3-6 weeks on my right arm. Only below the elbow on my left but 5 times. My bones aren’t so good.
Above the elbow I played a lot of Warcraft 3(long time ago lol), Civ, AoE etc. Games that only required simple clicking but lots of hot keys to control. Above the elbow cast prevents a lot of you ability to rotate your arm so switching the mouse to your left doesn’t help much.
Below the elbow it depends if your thumb is immobile or not. If your thumb is free then it’s a matter of buying a cheap small mouse that will fit in your palm with the giant cast bulge. FPS and fast movements will be painful and not recommended but slower games and general use isn’t much impeded.
Immobile thumb is maybe the worst. Grab a cheap number pad and place it under your hand so you can use four fingers on the buttons. Mouse in your left hand. This severely limits what you can do with a computer.
Look up some brain exercises to ease the transition between sides of your brain and handedness. Also hold on to the skills you develop in these few weeks. Being able to work right or left hand helps with a lot of manual tasks with weird angles like using a drill under a sink or what have you.
I have a nice full arm cast from my elbow to my wrist (Oberarmschiene). I just learned that I will have it removed next week already, because they don’t want to immobilize it for too long, but I was told it will hurt a lot after it’s removed, so we’ll see how that goes…
My thumb is indeed mobile, but my wrist is locked in place, so it is indeed quite uncomfortable to grip a mouse.
You can just change .zip to .cbz either manually via a filebrowser or a script (cbz are essentially just zips).
I think .cbz can only contain images, no subfolders, so maybe you need to make a .cbz per chapter or do a lot of remaming to be able to put them in one directory.
Cbr is the same but for .rar files (which are not open source?).
I think there is a program for adding metadata to manga like Comictagger (which does not work too well for manga) but I can’t remember the name …
Looks like I was wrong about the subfolders! Just tested it and it looks like you can just zip a bunch of folders called chapter 1, 2, 3, etc, rename to .cbz and at least Komga and YACreader seem to just go through all of them when reading. Very cool!
The recently released Baldur’s Gate 3 can be played with one hand perfectly fine. Your arm will likely heal before you finish it.
Edit: just noticed that you said you want keyboard only, in which case BG3 might not be ideal since it’s mostly mouse based. I think you can customize it to play with keyboard only since it has gamepad support, but don’t know what that’d be like.
There’s no fast paced clicking required though, so you could try to adapt to left handed mousery if you really want to play that one.
Caves of Qud is a really neat turn based roguelike that kinda focuses on exploration. It’s a bit hard to get into but if you do it’s really neat. Very very keyboard friendly, its my go-to game on my laptop.
Crypt of the NecroDancer can be played with one hand. Inputs are timed (due to it being a rhythm game), but you should be fine because the only inputs are WASD (or arrow keys if you prefer). It’s a roguelike, so there’s not much in the way of storytelling and it’s pretty challenging, but I feel like the gameplay is pretty puzzle-esque. If it’s any argument, I’m a huge fan of puzzles and I really enjoyed NecroDancer
Mam za sobą być może zbliżone doświadczenie: pisałam magisterkę już bliżej czterdziestki, nie lubię i mam trudność z pisaniem, no i… było ciężko.
Co mi pomogło:
-mind mapy
-nie wiem, może to oczywiste, ale apka do bibliografii (korzystałam z JabRef) i ogólnie porządek w papierach
-to może być bardzo specyficzne dla mnie, ale: jak miałam trudność, żeby ruszyć z kolejnym fragmentem, to pisanie na papierze i dopiero potem wklepywanie do kompa (plus: mniej rozpraszaczy ;))
-bez lania wody, przyzwoitą polszczyzną, z konsekwentnym formatowaniem tekstu. Każda osoba w komisji wyraziła na swój sposób coś pomiędzy ulgą a stwierdzeniem, że dobrze im się moją pracę czytało. To po części specyfika uczelni, poprzeczka tam dosyć nisko, ale szanowanie osoby czytającej to zawsze plus :)
-wizyta u psychiatry po antydepresanty oraz papier, żeby odsunąć termin złożenia pracy. Obie te rzeczy bardzo mi pomogły
-just in case, bo mi to mocno podniosło stres na ostatnim etapie: pisałam na oprogramowaniu linuksowym, a pracę trzeba było złożyć w formacie wordowskim. W rezultacie masa rzeczy mi się rozjechała, musiałam na szybko naprawiać, było stresująco, a mogło nie być.
Za to na impostora nie mam żadnego pomysłu. Anywho, współczuję. Trzymaj się!
hypnospace outlaw is a great puzzle game with some excellent world building. it literally feels just like old internet days. and the music is fantastic “ready to shave” is a legit amazing song, even if its a prog parody about a man shaving
Cannot view the link without signing in, but Peglin can be played with just the arrow keys and space bar as the minimum amount of keys needed. I cannot say whether WASD works, but it’s pretty simple to play.
