It’s a mobile game, but Sandship kinda checks all those boxes.

WillRegex,

When I launch it on my phone, it’s just a black screen.

papabobolious,

Seems interesting shame there’s no paid bon freemium version, though.

Okalaydokalay, do piracy w What's the history behind cam rips of movies and where have they typically came from?

Back in the day, and probably even now, as I used to encounter them when I lived in the big city, cam copies were famous on the streets. It was the only way to get a bootleg copy while the movie was still in theatres but you didn’t want to go for whatever reason.

When I lived in the big city, in a not so great area, the guys used to be in the grocery store parking lot or barbers or smoke shops selling the DVDs and before that were selling VHS copies.

And then when LimeWire grew in popularity, people would upload those like they would any retail DVD. And then went on to torrents as those grew in popularity.

And it still continues today for similar reasons. People want the fame that comes with uploading the first copy online or the first decent quality.

You can though it’s a bit of a roundabout way of doing it.

P2P releases typically come from private trackers, so you’re having them go from private trackers --> usenet --> public/private torrents

Scene releases that leak to the public typically hit private trackers/usenet around the same time, so you’re having those go scene --> private trackers/usenet --> public/private torrents

In others words anything you’re seeing in usenet has already been uploaded to at least some private trackers & possibly public torrents.

Of course with public torrents anything goes, unfortunately with the demise of RARBG public torrent users are only seeing a fraction of scene/p2p releases. 1337x/TorrentGalaxy does cover some of this but they aren’t covering nearly as much as the RARBG uploaders used to. So IMO if you’re seeing a scene/p2p release that hasn’t already been uploaded at 1337x/TorrentGalaxy then sure go ahead & create the torrent from your usenet download.

This actually sounds like a great topic for a documentary

HeckingShepherd,

It is piracy. Do whatever you want. Who cares if someone cares.

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

You can play Earthbound on an emulator with one hand pretty easily. (bSNES is pretty good)

First thing that came to mind was FTL: Faster Than Light. I used to play on a laptop with no mouse and a lousy touchpad, so I became familiar with the hot-keys.

You can pause the game at any point to stage your attack / defense. Most commands have hot-keys you can press, rather than point and clicking. You might need to use the mouse for a few parts, but given the ability to always pause the game (I think it’s game mechanic really) you shouldn’t have too much trouble since you’re under little pressure to do so quickly.

Xcom: enemy within and xcom 2. FTL: Faster Than Light.

The Curse of the Golden Idol is a detective-puzzle game that is easily played one handed, is cheap, and is great.

Invisible Inc is like a stealthy XCOM (which I see on your profile), and again, easily played one handed.

Steins;Gate and then Steins;Gate0

Oh definitely, if OP likes visual novels at all then there are tons of those to play, particular you'd have to pick ones with untimed gameplay or only choices like Steins;Gate, Phoenix Wright, or Raging Loop

No end of things to do to I mean with colonists

You might have some luck with a controller, using only a half of it, and re-mapping all controls there. Steam Controller might be great since it has touchpads. That might make some mouse-requiring games playable.

Using only keyboard, damn that’s difficult to find something, haha. I think these might work, just going by my memory: FTL, Toki Tori, Undertale, VVVVVV, Braid, Dome Keeper. Basically that kind of simple 2D games. Then almost any racing game.

You could also try some eye tracking solution, can’t help with that though.

Might I recommend the timeless classic Heroes of Might and Magic III? Most of the campaigns are not too difficult after you get the hang of things, if I remember correctly. And you can get a hundred hours out of it even if you only play the official campaigns.
