Okay I kind of want to try some other games with my sax. Like sure it's not as hard but dragon warrior 4 on the saxophone, I'm doing taloon's chapter for a month and jamming in the weapon shop until I get that damn sword of malice the legit way. That sounds like a fun rehearsal.
What happens when I just start playing along with the music when I'm grinding, yknow?
The centre pad is also an input on the common PC dancemats, as well as there also being a start and select button at the top. So they actually have 11 inputs
There are other ways, for example Ximik_Boda designed T2, a "pro" input method for T9 keyboards. Pressing a key, such as 8/TUV, brings up a popup that shows the mapping of characters to the second key, here 1=t, 2=u, 3=v, 0=8. Every lowercase letter, number and symbol can be typed with exactly 2 key presses, and there is no annoying wait when typing words like "nonmonogamous" with 7 waits for the 6/MNO key multi-click to time out.
Unfortunately, the order is important, for example 62 is n and 26 is %. Unordered pairs (9 keys and 2 legs) only allow for 36 combinations, which is not enough. 7² for 49 combinations plus two special keys, a modifier and a mode switch (lowercase/uppercase/navigation) seems to be optimal.
The text in the last panel does not seem like native English. The original German version is more like "I code [while] dancing! I dance [while] coding!"

Yes and I've also seen it done on a guitar and Rockband drums.
Probably some other ones aswell, I've seen Mario 64 on a saxophone.

This guy uses an electric sax with a D pad on the back for movement and everything else is controlled by notes
This guy uses regular sax and everything is controlled by notes

God with in a year of release.
The real impressive one was someone who did it on a handful of bananas.

Not to nitpick, but how would you do T9 with 8 inputs?
IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 93d
that last digit was just whitespace and perids, we can do without.
first, ever since I changed to dark mode, i no longer need whitespace,
and I'm sure ladies will be happier without periods. win win

Coding like that would definitely keep you fit.

I would rather cut off my legs than to use T9 anything for typing
noerdman@discuss.tchncs.de · 9 pts · 92d
Well... I guess you could hop from button to button on your legless butt, but I don't see how that would improve anything.

Reminds me of this Bugemos strip.
I really should stop procrastinating and translate their whole backlog, I have it downloaded already...
