[senit] motivating mouse games

Hi Paul

I had a look for some things like this the other day. Here are a couple of
my suggestions. I am not sure they fall exactly into your specifications but
may be worth having a look at.

 http://www.bubblegumclub.com/Arcade/petz.htm - This is not carnage but it
helps practice moving the mouse around and you do get to push the sheep out
of the field or into the pen which is quite fun.

http://www.janbrett.com/piggybacks/mouse_concentration.htm - This is again
not carnage but just a matching game operated using mouse clicking (could be
good if practicing with dwell click)

http://www.game-accessibility.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=32 - Some good
suggestions here.

Thanks

A client is trying out a head operated mouse device and we would like some
games with nice large targets for practice. He was playing Mouse Skills -
nice big targets - which he thought was OK but he asked if there were any
games with "more carnage" (he's 11). Any suggestions? (preferably free or
cheap)

Paul
