Hello Sheryl and Barrie,

at the conference they presented a one "walk" Game.


"Gabarello - game based rehabilitation for Lokomat"
Prof. Ulrich Götz, VGD Game Design, Zürcher Hochschule der Künste (ZHdK)

Background Information:
The Lokomat is a machine that walks the patient. The patient can also
try to walk himself. But this is very boring. They need a person who 
motivates the patient.

They developed a game called "Gabarello". A small figure walks around a
planet.
When the patient moves himself, the figure gets longer legs, is faster
and can jump. This looks very good and the figure can collect more points.

The figure can only go from left to right. So I would say it is like a
"one button game" :-)
