00:02
This video shows a range of mostly free PC games that can be played with one or
00:07
two buttons or switches. We will be using an Xbox Adaptive Controller and JoytoKey
00:13
to play these games.
00:17
This is a Tar Heel gameplay activity where you can change any YouTube video
00:22
into a switch activity.
00:38
This is Cognable’s Light Box and with JoytoKey you can convert one of their
00:43
switches to the mouse movement and one to left-click
00:54
to create all sorts of patterns. It can also be used in a variety of ways
01:02
including with a single switch.
01:07
I select “Mouse Click Switch”
01:17
with “Toggle On” “Off.” One button is enough to create a big effect. Once we’re on one
01:38
sphere there are a variety of activities which I can select with a click and I
01:46
could start them with a press and stop them.
01:55
This activity is called “Wave to the People.”
02:01
With one switch set up as the left click or the spacebar, all you need to do is
02:06
press your button and wave at the people as you go by in a train and hope they’ll
02:12
smile at you or wave back.
02:21
This is “Just Fishing by Ruthie Edwards and with one of your buttons set up with
02:25
spacebar you can go fishing.
02:42
This is “4ways 4ward,” a beautifully animated adventure game, this has an
02:51
unusual mechanism that you hold a switch to move a character forward through the
02:57
world and then let go if you want to interact with an object nearby and find
03:04
out the story behind it and it’s different for each character.
03:31
This is “Catchy Orbit” which is a single switch game and the
03:36
aim of the game is to turn the red balls blue.
03:48
If you reach the target set at the top of the screen, you’ll progress to the
03:53
next level.
04:01
This is Flabby Physics” a one switch puzzle game.
04:28
This is “Canabalt” and it can be used with any Xbox standard controller with just
04:33
the A and B buttons. No extra software is needed.
04:50
This is “Look’n Cook” which is a mostly one switch game that needs some mouse
04:55
control to navigate menus.
05:04
The aim of the game is to cook as close to your customers wish as possible. All
05:12
you do is press once to flip and again for the other side
05:19
and he will tell you how well you’ve done.
05:29
This is “Soccer Physics” which is a 1 or 2 player game. With one switch set up as W
05:37
for the left team and the other set for the up arrow, you can play a game of
05:42
football…or try your best.
