I play a lot of games (over 4,000 games in my Steam library) and I’ve made a hobby of reviewing them here on Lemmy over the past year. I especially love horror games. I would love to give it a playtest and provide constructive feedback.
It’s up to you if you’d like me to also post a review of it here on Lemmy or wait until a finished product is available. You can see my post history to see the kind of reviews I write, or you can check out my blog where I’m archiving my reviews here. Easier to browse the history of posts on the sidebar at that website.
Hi, this is very very early beta. I don’t want anything from it shared in the public. It’s just not ready for the wider audience. That’s why I’m doing playtesting, so this thing can git gud before people try it :D
I’m retired AND young… well, relatively speaking. I retired 3 years ago, at 38 years old. I’m 41 now.
I was in the US military for 20 years, earned a pension, plus 100% disability through the VA. With the passive income and benefits (free medical/dental for life), I can afford to be fully retired now. I’m not filthy rich by any stretch of the imagination, but I make enough to live a quiet, relaxed life and have my basic needs met. And that’s good enough for me. Plenty of time to indulge in my many hobbies. And I have ADHD, so I’m always finding new and interesting things to deep-dive into.
I actually started a movie review blog about 6 years before I retired. I ended up taking a hiatus from it shortly after retirement and just haven’t been motivated to get back into it lately, despite all the movies and TV shows I watch regularly.
I switched to reviewing video games sometime last year and have been mostly keeping up with that; although it’s been over 2 months since my last review. I should probably make a new post soon, or declare another hiatus. 😬
If you want to make a review, I could recommend straftat, it’s a pretty simple game, but there’s enough interesting that I think it’d make for an interesting review!
If you can still use a mouse well, grand strategy games can be played with one hand. Despite all the (deserved) criticism they get, paradox games are a lot of fun. (and their modern ones even feel like a full game without having to buy any dlc) They can be a bit difficult to keep up with without a keyboard though so play on lower speeds.
If you are more concious about who you give your money to, endless legend 2 is a 4x published by hooded horse that is very good (think civ but fantasy) and since it is turn based it is a lot easier to play with just a mouse.
Any points and click adventure game, there are loads including old classics and modern good games.
Monkey Island remasters are fun and can be played with mouse. Broken Sword games are also good.
Rusty Lake games are great if you prefer more puzzle games than narrative ones. Still has a great somewhat surreal plot just not like a point and click narrative game.
Also If you havent played dwarf fortress now is the time to learn, the siege update came out this week. Mouse or keyboard, or both, but definitely can be done one handed.
Vampire Survivor that others have suggested is a good shout, one hand on the keyboard is enough and its very addictive.
If you have a joystick or wheel, flight Sims, space sims, racing games might be possible.
RTS games in single player mode (just play on an easier difficulty). Plenty of decent ones have been released in the last little while. Also, maybe 4x games, total war etc.
Anything turn-based, especially mouse-driven titles. Slay the Spire, Chess, Riichi Mahjong, Balatro, etc.
Puyo Puyo Champions has a one-handed preset in its controller options. Do note that if you want to play online, only Switch is active since that's where Japan is, I can't recommend the game on other platforms.
Kirby Air Ride uses only one button + analog stick, and any button works, so you can use L. Would have to be left hand for the original, but the sequel coming out later this month has a detailed accessibility menu, which I bet will include right-handed settings.
Crypt of the Necrodancer is designed to be playable with just four arrows, in case anyone wanted to play it on a DDR mat. Which also means you can play with arrow keys or WASD.
Rhythm Doctor is actually just one button.
Rhythm Heaven Fever uses only A and B. Rhythm Heaven DS uses only stylus. The rest of the series uses d-pad as well though, so those are less playable.
Come to think of it, any DS game that only uses stylus.
I enjoyed Cadence of Hyrule a lot more than Crypt of the Necrodancer for some reason. Maybe I just love the setting of Hyrule that much more. Probably just the overall polish on the game. But that’s an easy recommendation.
CoH's control scheme requires both hands, so I can't recommend it to OP. But I'll also have to say that I have the opposite opinion, CoH was good for a casual playthrough but wasn't something I could sink several hundred hours into like the original. The overworld made runs much longer and much more repetitive since a lot of it is always the same.
