No, haven't even heard of it.  I'll take a look.

Most of those seem to require reflexes that I don't have.  I've been on
heavy anti-psythotics for decades, which cause major tremors and degraded
reflexes.  I tried Hell Divers 2 and was unable to get past the training into
the actual game.  That's a problem I've had with a lot of games.  Easy mode
is normal, not actually easy.  I tried DMC5, but that was way too hard for me
as well because the controls were too complex.  I also tried AC Fires of
Rubicon, which I really enjoyed, but was unable to get to the point where I
could save games and modify the mech.
