I like Franko's suggestion.  Others by Jeff Minter such as Sheep in Space were good too.

My personal choice would be Uridium.

Actually I just remembered Zynaps.  Amazing game which had an annoying habit if crashing occasionally.

Not sure the one button joystick is that big an issue really.

I never had a problem thumping the space bar to use a "smart bomb" during game play.

In fact I quite liked the ingenious ways programmers would find a usually intuitive joystick manouvre to get around the lack of buttons.
