Showstopper right there. Have you *ever* played a keyboard-only game that was fun? Heck, even M.U.L.E. had joystick support...
My school has (had) a server for students and teachers to share files. I programmed a keyboard only game for students to play in the free time and put it there. They kept deleting it and I kept putting it back. Eventually, because everyone was playing it, they wiped that server and locked it so only teachers could use it. (It was taking up too much bandwidth)

I wish I still had the source code for that game.
